President Bola Tinubu has expressed his condolences to Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno over the passing of his wife, Pastor Patience Umo Eno.
The First Lady passed away on Thursday at an undisclosed hospital after a brief illness.
In a statement released on Friday, President Tinubu described her death as a shocking loss, offering his sincere sympathies to the Governor, the Eno family, and the entire Akwa Ibom community during this difficult period.
The statement, signed by Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, highlighted the profound impact Pastor Patience had on those around her.
President Tinubu acknowledged her remarkable contributions to the state, particularly through her ‘Golden Initiative for All’ program, which focused on uplifting the lives of women, children, and the vulnerable in society.
He praised her for her selfless dedication to service and her commitment to supporting her husband’s vision for the state.
“On behalf of the Federal Government, I extend my deepest condolences to Governor Umo Eno, his family, and the people of Akwa Ibom State as they navigate this difficult time,” the President stated.
He emphasized the irreplaceable role Pastor Patience played, not only as the First Lady of the state but also as a devoted wife and an ordained gospel minister who embodied humility, resilience, and loyalty.
President Tinubu expressed his belief that her legacy of service will continue to inspire future generations and remain a cherished part of Akwa Ibom’s history.
He urged the grieving family, friends, and relatives to find solace in the comfort of the eternal God, the source of life and strength.
“As we mourn this profound loss, we are reminded of the fleeting nature of life and the importance of compassion and support,” the President noted.
He expressed confidence in the resilience of the Eno family and the people of Akwa Ibom, offering them reassurance and support during this challenging time.
The passing of Pastor Patience Umo Eno has left a significant void in the hearts of those who knew her.
Her dedication to improving the lives of the less privileged and her unwavering support for her husband’s administration have left an indelible mark on the state.
The people of Akwa Ibom and beyond will remember her as a beacon of hope and kindness, whose legacy will continue to inspire for years to come.
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
