A Presidential aspirant and National leader of the All Progressives Congress ( APC) Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu has on Tuesday, April 5, 2022, donated N50M to victims of last week, Monday train attack in Kaduna.
He said Nigeria was bleeding and the people needed to fight banditry and terrorism with all their energy and everything the country has.
Tinubu added that an attack on one Nigerian is an attack on all of us in the country.
He spoke when he visited the state to commiserate with the government and people of Kaduna over last week’s attack on Abuja- Kaduna train.
Asiwaju Tinubu urged all Nigerians to contribute their quota to efforts to rehabilitate the victims and prayers for the repose of the soul of those who died in the incident.
He said: “I’m here to sympathize with Governor Nasir el-Rufai and the people of the state over the train attack. It is a national disaster. It’s a blow to all of us.
“Nigeria bleeds. We need to fight terrorism with all we have. I understand some people were killed while some others are missing. It is frustrating.
He also visited St Gerald’s Hospital to see some of the victims.
Responding, Governor el-Rufai expressed gratitude to Asíwájú Tinubu for taking the time to come and commiserate with the state.
He said the visit preempted his plan to come to Lagos to thank Asíwájú for honoring the people of Kaduna State by canceling his 70th birthday on the day of the event because of the train disaster.
El-Rufai stated: “This gesture is a powerful show of leadership and empathy unprecedented in our national history.
“The government and people of Kaduna State will not forget this. We are grateful to you for your sacrifice and commitment to the greatness of our country.”
