The Prayer and Support for the Nigerian Armed Forces and
other Security Agencies (PSNASA) commiserates with the Nigerian Navy over the
loss of one of its gallant officers, Lieutenant Commander Gideon Yashim
Gwaza, who paid the ultimate sacrifice while rescuing a vessel in distress,
recently.
He selflessly risked his life to save 59 people on board MV AMBIKA 4, a dredging vessel that was in danger of sinking at Okpobo Field. Despite the treacherous conditions, he courageously led the rescue operation, ensuring the safety of all on board.
Tragically, he lost his life in the process, leaving behind a legacy of bravery and selflessness.
The PSNASA sees Gwaza's sacrifice as a testament to the
unwavering dedication and commitment of naval personnel, as well as other
security agents, including military personnel, police officers, and emergency
responders, who risk their lives every day to protect us from harm. Unfortunately,
some of these brave individuals make the ultimate sacrifice, losing their lives
in the line of duty.
The group therefore calls on Nigerians to come together as a society to support and appreciate the sacrifices of these heroes. It is our responsibility to recognize and appreciate the sacrifices of these heroes, who selflessly put the needs of others before their own.
"Let's show our security agents that we value their
service and sacrifices. Let's stand together to support them and their
families. We owe it to them to ensure that their bravery and selflessness are
recognized and appreciated. Together, we can make a difference and show our
security agents that we care", Ambassador Mary Abayomi Fatile, the
Convener of the group states.
PSNASA also extends heartfelt condolences to the family of
Late Lt. Commander Gideon Yashim Gwaza, praying that the God grant you them the
fortitude to bear the loss.
