Oluremi Tinubu Donates 40 Million Naira to Jigawa Tanker Explosion Victims
Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, recently extended significant support to victims of a tragic tanker explosion in Majiya village, Jigawa State, offering a donation of forty million Naira along with essential food items.
The donation was delivered on behalf of the First Lady by a delegation led by Hajia Fatima Tajudeen Abbas, the wife of the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
The handover took place at the Jigawa State Government House in Dutse.
Senator Tinubu expressed her heartfelt concern for those affected by the devastating incident, acknowledging the immense hardship the victims have endured.
In her message, she assured Jigawa State’s leadership of her ongoing support and prayers, pledging to stand by the state as it recovers from the tragedy.
Governor Mallam Umar Namadi of Jigawa State, who received the First Lady’s delegation with gratitude, conveyed his deep appreciation for the donation.
He assured that the funds and supplies would be used responsibly to assist those in need, emphasizing that the support from the First Lady was not only welcome but crucial in aiding recovery efforts.
Expressing his thanks, he noted that the relief provided would bring comfort and security to the affected families.
During the handover, Jigawa’s First Lady, Hadiza Umar Namadi, described the First Lady’s gesture as one of immense compassion and solidarity, stating that Oluremi Tinubu’s concern demonstrated a powerful bond of unity and love.
Speaking on behalf of her state, Hadiza Namadi shared her gratitude, noting that such empathy from the nation’s leaders brings strength to the communities affected by such unexpected tragedies.
The delegation later visited Rasheed Shekoni Federal University Teaching Hospital, where several victims of the explosion are receiving medical care.
There, the delegation took time to meet with the patients, observing their progress and reassuring them of continued support.
Governor Namadi further appreciated President Bola Tinubu’s quick response to the incident, stating that the Federal Government’s attention had provided a sense of hope amid the crisis.
He added that many victims are gradually showing signs of improvement under the care provided.
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.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
