Civil Society Groups for Good Governance CSGGG, has pledged a continuous support for the armed forces, as it reveals plan to embark on a solidarity peace March in support of the Nigerian Military.

The President of the group, Comrade Ogakwu Dominic speaking at a press briefing, described the March as the groups little quota to the Nigerian Military and the effectiveness of its members, especially in the face of contemporary security challenges in the country.

Ogakwu who said the coalition is made up of over 180 CSOs is of the firm belief that an exercise such as a solidarity march would be an enhancer of esprit de corps and harmony among members of the Nigerian Military and heighten their moral in their commitment to solving the challenges of insecurity.

He said; “We celebrate and are 100 percent behind the Nigerian Military, recognizing their efforts constantly as they protect our territorial borders against insurgency, risking their lives in active service to our nation.

“We must also applaud the leadership of the military for the structures and facilities on ground at all camp aimed at tackling all emerging security threats across the nation; CSO’s as the fifth realm of the estate, has planned to embark on a massive solidarity march to commend the military and also encourage them to put more effort in ensuring that the cankerworm known as Insecurity in the nation is completely repelled.

“The security outfit is majorly the pillar of every nation, and without them a nation will crumble to the barest minimum. We therefore sincerely pray for all fallen heroes who instead of allowing the nation crumblechoose to give their best which unfortunately saw to their end, we pray that their souls find full recourse in the bosom of the almighty. We believe this solidarity peace march has become necessary given the misconception in public domain on the role of the Military” He added.

The statement further stated that many Nigerians due to this insecurity has demonized the leadership of the military in order to score cheap political point and score the efforts of the military leadership low. However the march, according to Ogakwu would commence in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and extend to the regions and states with many Civil Society Practitioners in attendance.
