Tinubu Mourns 40 Tijaniyya Members Killed in Kaduna Crash, Urges Road Safety
President Bola Tinubu expressed deep sorrow over the tragic death of 40 members of the Tijaniyya Movement, who lost their lives in a devastating auto accident.
The crash occurred on Sunday as the victims were returning from Kwandari in Plateau State, where they had gathered to celebrate Maulud in Saminaka, Kaduna State.
Their bus tragically collided with a truck in Lere, Kaduna State, leaving many others seriously injured.
In a statement released by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu conveyed heartfelt condolences to the families of the deceased, as well as to the people and governments of both Kaduna and Plateau States.
He shared in the grief of the Tijaniyya Movement and acknowledged the profound loss to the community.
The President also took a moment to pray for the souls of those who perished in the accident and wished a quick recovery for the injured.
In light of this heartbreaking event, he called on the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) to step up its efforts in monitoring highways across the country.
He emphasized the urgent need to improve road safety measures to prevent future accidents and safeguard the lives of Nigerians travelling on the nation’s highways.
The Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) has alerted Nigerians residing in flood-prone areas to relocate, following the release of water from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam into River Niger and River Benue.
The release, which began on September 18, 2024, poses flood risks to 11 states, including Adamawa, Kogi, Benue, and Bayelsa.
NIHSA urges individuals to clear drainages and avoid floodplains. This comes days after severe flooding in Borno killed over 30 people.
Israel admitted to initiating a “new era” of war after two consecutive days of explosive attacks targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon.
On Tuesday, pager explosions killed several, including children, and wounded over 2,800. A second wave on Wednesday, involving walkie-talkies and phones, killed at least 20 and injured 450.
One explosion occurred during a Hezbollah funeral, with reports suggesting Hezbollah’s elite Radwan unit was heavily impacted. Israel believes the death toll is higher than officially reported.
In a recent Instagram post, Nigerian entertainment figure Soso Soberekon advised women to focus on men with a clear vision and long-term plans instead of being swayed by physical attributes.
He highlighted that a big penis won’t raise children and encouraged women to seek meaningful relationships with partners who can build a future.
Soberekon’s message stirred a range of reactions online, sparking a lively conversation in the comments.
