President Bola Tinubu has announced plans by the Federal government to confer National Honors on the seventeen military personnel killed in Okuama, a community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta Statelast week.
The President disclosed this at the breaking of the Ramadan fast with the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, and the leadership of the House on Wednesday, March 20.
The President said while oversight is essential for maintaining transparency and accountability in governance, excessive summoning of officials can disrupt operations and hinder service delivery to citizens. He, therefore, urged lawmakers to show discretion in the exercise of their oversight functions.

All you have to do is to have faith. Pls don’t forget your constituencies, remember what they are going through. We salute all our men and women in uniform and we sympathise with them.
I will soon make further pronouncements. They must have a befitting burial and they must have national honour.”
