Vice President Osinbajo meets 104 year-old Nigeria's oldest surviving soldier


At a public function recently, Vice President of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo met with arguably Nigeria's oldest surviving soldier.

The 104 year-old man, Private Amuda Aluko (rtd) who was looking quite smart for his age, walked unaided to the Vice President and was seen whispering some things into his ears, and this attracted hordes of photo journalists to capture the amazing moment.


Here’s what the Vice President had to say: “Sometimes on the job, I get to meet incredible people. Today, I met perhaps Nigeria's oldest surviving soldier, 104 year-old Rtd Private Amuda Aluko at the Army Day Celebrations. He is almost as old as the Amalgamation of the protectorates that became Nigeria
