It is with a heavy heart and deep sorrow that I extend my heartfelt condolences to the government and people of Niger State and the families, friends, and loved ones of the 48 persons who tragically lost their lives in a devastating accident along Bida-Agaie-Lapai road in Niger state in the early hours of Sunday, September 8, 2024.
This terrible incident has shaken the entire Niger State and the nation at large and my thoughts and prayers are with all those affected during this painful time. I therefore join the people of Niger State and the whole of Nigeria in mourning this profound loss.
May the souls of the departed rest in peace, and may God grant their families the strength and fortitude to bear this immeasurable loss.
Mohammed Idris fnipr
Honourable Minister
Federal Ministry of Information and National Orientation.
