This Sunday, the government is set to unveil 142 heroes during this year's Mashujaa Day celebrations and plans to activate the National Heroes Fund at an advanced stage.

The Fund, which is currently inactive, was established in 2014 and was designed to offer financial assistance to heroes conferred by the state and their families.
