The Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum (PDP-GF), under the Chairmanship of Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, has extended its heartfelt sympathy to the government and people of Oyo State over the explosion in Ibadan, the state capital which led to the loss of lives and destruction of property. 

This was contained in a statement signed by the Director General of the PDPGF, Hon. C.I.D. Maduabum, in Abuja, on Friday.

They described the loss of lives and property as a result of the incident as regrettable. 

The statement reads in part: “The Forum is saddened by this painful loss, impacting not only the Government and the people of Oyo State but also the entire country.

“We commend Gov. Makinde’s swift response to the incident and are confident that he will deliver on his promise to bring justice to victims by ensuring that all parties indicted in the investigation into the matter are brought to book. 

“To this end, we urge the security agencies and regulatory authorities in charge of mining and explosives to step up action to ensure that this type of incident does not reoccur.

“Governor Makinde’s actions so far, especially in ensuring that those in need of medical attention receive it at no cost, demonstrate the Governor’s love and resolute interest in the welfare and well-being of the entire people of Oyo State. 

“The Forum assures the Government and people of Oyo State of its unwavering support.”
