Former President Muhammadu Buhari has extended his heartfelt condolences to President Bola Tinubu over the series of tragic stampedes in Oyo State, the Federal Capital Territory, FCT and Anambra State, resulting in the loss of several lives.
Buhari, in a condolence message on Sunday by his Spokesperson, Garba Shehu, also expressed sympathy to Governors Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Professor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra and Nyesom Wike, Minister of the FCT, and appealed to the leaders to pass on his words of sympathy and support to the families and friends of the victims, and wishes of a speedy recovery to those injured in the stampedes.
The former president equally sympathized with the Catholic community, which was also affected.
He extended his warm wishes to Nigerians on the occasion of Christmas and called on fellow countrymen to recall the noble teachings of Jesus Christ.
