Nigeria Army organises special Golf kitty to honour fallen heroes

The 3 Division of the Nigeria Army, Rukuba, near Jos, on Saturday hosted a special golf kitty to honour soldiers who died in active service.

Speaking during the closing ceremony of the game in Jos, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the Division, Maj. Gen. Nuhu Angbazo, said the kitty was organised as part of activities marking the 2019 Armed Forces Remembrance Week in the state.

Represented by Brig.-Gen. Festus Briggs, Angbazo, said that the game had brought the events slated for the armed forces remembrance week to its climax.

“We decided to organise this special kitty as part of activities commemorating this year’s armed forces remembrance week.

“There is no limit to the way we will remember our brothers and sisters who died in active service.

“So, we have invited golfers from within Plateau and beyond to come and mark the week with us,” he said
