First Lady, Remi Tinubu’s Convoy Kills Seven-year-old In Ondo State by ogododo(op): 8:45pm On Apr 17, 2025
A vehicle in the convoy of wife of the Nigerian president, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has killed a seven years old girl identified as Saratu Lawal in Akure, Ondo State, SaharaReporters has exclusively gathered.

Mrs Tinubu was in Akure on Thursday to flag off the South-West leg of the Renewed Hope Initiative to improve the well-being of women and girls across the country and distribute no fewer than 10,000 professional kits — comprising Crocs and scrubs — to nurses and midwives in the South-West region.

Multiple sources told SaharaReporters that a butter coloured hilux in the First Lady’s convoy knocked Saratu around Oba Ile while the president's wife was moving from the airport to the venue of the event.

“A seven years old girl by name Saratu Lawal, and a pupil of Islamiyar Arabic School, Shasha, was knocked down by a butter coloured hilux in the government convoy of her Excellency, the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who is on official visit to Ondo State,” the source told SaharaReporters.

“The incident occurred today, Thursday 17th April, 2025 in Oba Ile, before the Oba Ile Central Mosque.

“It claimed the life of the child as every effort to save her could not yield the desired result even when she was rushed to the primary healthcare in Oba Ile.”


When contacted, Malam Lawali, the father of the deceased, who is a trader at Oba Ile market, said he has “handed everything to God.”

SaharaReporters learnt the lifeless body of the child has been handed over to the family for burial in line with Islamic injunction.

Calls put across by SaharaReporters to Ondo Police command’s spokesperson, DSP Ayanlade Olushola were not picked nor returned.

Oba Ile a small and Ancient but very great Town in Yoruba History
That was where the founders of Ile Ife migrated from and the Word Oba came from

It was the Town that first started the Oba system of Govt that Ile Ife Princes used to found and establish Yorubaland

Remi Tinubu should compensate the family by granting her Siblings Scholarships up to university Level though their daughter can never be replaced

May Jesus truly console and comfort her Family

So media should only focus on news that involves protest.

I hope it's politics that made u heartless and you were not born evil?

So the news is not worth talking about again? The girl should be forgotten because the family have been settled?

Don't worry that settlement will reach you and one of your loved ones

What do you mean settle the matter amicably? What law says you can settle manslaughter amicably ? The office of the first lady should provide the negligent driver to face the law and prepare to pay compensation to the family
