Peter Obi Prays for Healing After Tragic Gas Explosion Injures Three in Lagos
Peter Obi, the prominent Nigerian politician and leader of the Obidient movement, has shared heartbreaking news of a tragic gas explosion that occurred yesterday at the home of one of their members, @Uptownoflagos.
The explosion left three of his brothers severely injured, suffering from third-degree burns.
The victims are currently receiving medical treatment at one of the country’s leading healthcare facilities, the National Orthopaedic Hospitals.
This unfortunate incident has sent shockwaves throughout the Obidient family, as it is especially difficult to hear such news during these challenging times.
Peter Obi, in a heartfelt message, expressed his deepest sympathy for the victims and their loved ones.
In his statement, Peter Obi said, “Such a mishap coming at this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their loved ones, and all those going through similar situations across the country.”
Obi extended his heartfelt prayers to the victims, asking for their complete and swift recovery.
He also urged the medical team to continue their diligent efforts in providing the best possible care.
“May God Almighty grant them healing, strength, and comfort, and uphold their entire family during this trying period,” he added.
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
