Obi Visits Tanker Explosion Victims In Niger State, Offers Support by Bobloco(op): 9:19pm On Jan 22, 2025
Today, emotion took the greater part of me as I left Lagos this morning and headed to the site of the tragic petrol tanker explosion, the gravesite, and also the Sarkin Dikko place along the Dikko-Maje Road in Suleja, Niger State, where over 100 lives were lost, more than 50 injured, and many properties destroyed.

At the explosion site and the graveyard where 80 victims were buried, I felt the sorrow of a preventable tragedy.

I also met with some of the injured victims at the Hospital to offer support and encouragement.

These recurring disasters call for urgent safety measures: repairing roads, more enlightenment of tanker vehicle operators, investing in healthcare, and lifting people out of poverty to prevent such heartbreaking losses.

I also met with Sarkin Dikko and his council to extend my condolences and solidarity with the people of the Dikko community in Niger State.

Human lives are invaluable, and governance must prioritize their protection through proactive policies.

Together, we can ensure such tragedies become a thing of the past. -PO

Please, everyone should know what he said. Many times, ignorance could cost us a lot.

Many "preventable tragedies" are not prevented in Nigeria.

Do you think that a notorious narcotics trafficker, certificate forger, and buccaneering power grabber, whose wicked and draconian policies masquerading as economic reforms have unleashed untold hardships, hunger, and starvation on the citizens, gives a damn about the victims of the fuel tanker explosion?

He doesn't give a Bleep.

He lacks compassion and empathy

This is what being president should be about, being present and responsive!

PO is currently the only qualified candidate to be president in 2027 among the 3 top contenders of the previous election.

The Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate for the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi on Wednesday visited the site of the tanker explosion along the Dikko-Maje Road in Suleja, Niger State, where over 100 lives were lost, more than 50 were injured, and many properties destroyed.

In a post on his official X handle, the former Anambra state Governor noted that he also met with Sarkin Dikko and his council to extend his condolences and solidarity with the people of the community.

Obi noted that he visited the graveyard site where 80 victims were buried and also met with some of the injured victims at the Hospital to offer support and encouragement.

The economist, however, warned that the recurring disasters call for urgent safety measures by repairing roads, more enlightenment of tanker vehicle operators, investing in healthcare, and lifting people out of poverty to prevent such heartbreaking losses.

The statement added, “Human lives are invaluable, and governance must prioritize their protection through proactive policies.

Together, we can ensure such tragedies become a thing of the past.

Commendable but why is it that it’s southern politicians always treating these almajiris as charity cases ? When will Hausa man come south to donate to us when we are in distress ?

Compassionate indeed! Yet he allowed doctors to go on strike for up to a year while he was Governor. Only God knows how many children died within that period

From the look of things, it seems the man you called agulu fraudster has the interest and wellbeing of Nigerians at heart. He is not yet the president but he is performing wonders with his money. Unlike your president who is sitting on our money yet refuses to do something meaningful with it.
