The Nigerian Army has announced a new date for the passing out parade (POP) for regular recruits.
Captain Audu Arigu, NDA Assistant Director, Public Relations, disclosed this in a statement while adding that this was because the late COAS Attahiru was to attend the POP as the Reviewing Officer/Special Guest of Honour.
The event was earlier slated for Saturday, May 22, 2021, but could not be held due to the funeral of Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, the late Chief of Army Staff, and other officers, who died in a plane crash in Kaduna.
He further added that the new schedule is 8 am on Saturday, May 29 at the RSM Hama Kim Parade Ground.
The passing out parade is the climax of recruits intense training and marks the end of the exercise involved in becoming a soldier.
The ceremony showcases the height of military discipline and regimentation.
