They also thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for approving the payment of their pension entitlements. The President of Association of Retired War Affected Police Officers (ARWAPO), Chief Matthew Udeh, thanked Mr President for his forthrightness and believing in one Nigeria.

He said: “We believe we are all one, one Nigeria forever. The war is over and over forever.

“God will continue to bless President Muhammadu Buhari for looking at the nation as one indivisible entity.

“I feel fulfilled today. The whole ARWAPO members are full of gratitude to Mr President for hearing our cry for over 40 years and running,’’ Udeh, who was an Assistant Superintendent of Police before the war, said.
