Kaduna Bombing: Obi Gives a Freewill Donation of 5Million Naira as His Widow’s Mite.

Due to the unfortunate bombing by the Nigeria Army at Tudun Biri village in Igabi Local Government of the State which led to so many casualties, Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, during his visit yesterday at the emergency care centre within the state, condoles with the victimized patients, widows and widowers with the sum of 5million naira in support of the staff, families of the deceased and patients still receiving treatment.

However, during his interview with press, he first expressed his appreciation for the hardwork and efforts of the military in helping to secure the country but questions the insecurities in our land for the lives of about 500,000 people who were lost in this accident and inefficiency of government to support the military in securing their people rather than buying SUVs and renovating buildings.

Showing his hospitality and sympathizing with the grieving families, he says a word of prayer and word of encouragement to the families and people of Nigeria when he said, ” I pray to God Almighty to grant them quick recovery. I thank the government of Kaduna State for their kind and caring intervention for the affected victims. I urge governments at all levels, and the good people of Nigeria to help in setting up a foundation for compensation of families affected in this particular incident and similar incidents in the past, and most importantly, in educating the young children orphaned in this incident.”

Meanwhile, at this challenging time, there is now a need for extra caution in the operations of the military and other security agencies.
