The First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has lamented the killing of villagers in the erroneous bombing of Tundun Biri village in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

The first lady said she feels a sense of responsibility to share in this grief with a motherly compassion that connects her to every household affected by the tragedy.

She said: “It is with heaviness in my heart that I extend my condolences to the Gov of Kaduna State, His Excellency Gov. Uba Sani, and the entire people of Kaduna State, especially the people of Tudun Biri Village, that have been touched by this devastating tragedy of the recent airstrike.

“The pain we collectively bear is an immense one; personally, I feel a sense of responsibility to share in this grief with a motherly compassion that connects me to every household affected by this tragedy.

“To lose loved ones is an agony that transcends all boundaries, and in these trying times, we must draw strength from one another.

“The lives lost were more than mere statistics; they were sons, daughters, mothers, and fathers—cherished members of our tightly-knit community.

“My heart breaks for each family mourning the absence of their dear ones, and my prayers are with you.

“Even as I send my heartfelt condolences, let us embrace one another in love and compassion, supporting those affected. In our collective grief, may we find strength to heal.”
