President Abraham Lincoln once said: “ A nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure”. This profound statement made by the man credited with the classical definition of democracy is much true for political parties and social groupings that make up the Nation. And how can a Nation or a political party remain relevant with endurance if the youth does not know the sacrifices it’s forbears went through? And how much more if some of their descendants don’t see reason in celebrating them and refer to them as “detractors” instead of heroes?
