The Nigerian Army has fixed a new date for the passing out parade (POP) for regular recruits from the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) Kaduna.
In a statement by the NDA Assistant Director, Public Relations, Captain Audu Arigu, the POP will hold on Saturday, May 29, at the RSM Hama Kim Parade Ground.
The event was earlier slated for Saturday, May 22, 2021, but did not hold due to the funeral ceremony of the late Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, and 10 other officers, who died in a plane crash in Kaduna state.
Attahiru was to attend the POP as the Reviewing Officer/Special Guest of Honour, but met his death as he flew alongside other officers for the event.
