Bello made the call on Sunday, November 20, while visiting the family of late army hero, Lt. Col Muhammad Abu Ali in Kaduna.
"We must give honour to whom it is due and our soldiers deserve the best of everything. They give up their comfort, happiness and families just to keep the rest of us safe,” the governor said.
“They must be encouraged and I call on the Federal Government to make their welfare and that of the families of the soldiers that we lose top priority. No member of a soldier's family should suffer financially when we they die," he added.
