In a heartfelt message, the Western Sumi Hoho (WSH) has extended its deep appreciation to the Khiamniungan Tribal Council, along with the villagers of Kingpu and Pangsha, for their “extraordinary solidarity and kindness” in honoring the late Lieutenant (posthumous) Shetoi Yeptho of Surumi Village, a member of the NSCN/GPRN-K (Niki).
The WSH highlighted the selfless acts of the Khiamniungan Nagas, particularly noting the gesture of wrapping the body in a Khiamniungan shawl, carrying it across the border on foot, and ensuring its safe passage. These actions, they emphasized, are testament to the unwavering spirit of Naga brotherhood and unity.
“Your support has brought immense comfort to the grieving family and our community,” the WSH stated, expressing their deep gratitude for the warmth and generosity shown by the villagers of Kingpu and Pangsha. The Khiamniungan Tribal Council’s dedication to collective well-being was also acknowledged with high regard.
The Western Sumi Hoho believes that this unwavering support has strengthened their resolve, reinforced tribal bonds, and inspired a continued commitment to working together towards a brighter future. They concluded their message by thanking the Khiamniungan community for their generosity, solidarity, and commitment to shared values.
“Together, we stand united in our pursuit of peace, understanding, and prosperity for all,” the WSH added.
