A riveting 20-minute documentary that offered insights into the Nigerian Army’s honorable history, its missions and responsibilities, and its unflinching commitment to national security was shown to provide a thorough grasp of the organization.
The interactive session that the kids avidly engaged in, asking questions of the eminent speakers and seeking advice from them was the event’s high point. The young brains were motivated, empowered, and curious as a result of this dynamic conversation.
A group picture was made to commemorate the special event and to represent the brotherhood and friendship between the Nigerian Army and the youth of Kaduna State.
