With the battles raging in Ziwa against the Islamic Army, individuals within Samgolan army began to distinguish themselves as true heroes for the nation. One such man was Corporal William Eteki, a man who had managed to hold off two repeated counter attacks at night with low ammunition. This action was worth merit, a reward was to be given to the soldier directly by the Minister of Defense when he flew out to meet some of the soldiers fighting there and try to boost morale.

The soldiers not on patrol gathered in the camp as an impromptu stage had been set up. Minister Teleola saluted to the men, they saluted back. Then the minister spoke, “We are gathered here to recognize an act of heroism and duty to the country,” he motioned to the corporal, “Corporal William Eteki held his position, knowing that he had low ammunition, and he forced back the Islamic Army two times. A true act of valor worth commending even if the fighting is light.” A soldier behind him presented the Minister with the Medal of Honor, the minister picked it up and stood in front of the corporal who stood at attention. The Minister pinned the medal to the soldier and turned back to the crowd who began applauding for the corporal. “Let us all strive to have the resolve Mr. Eteki showed! Let us show the Islamic Army what kind of men they are dealing with! True Samgolan men!”
