ai generated text
Another crowd crush incident occurred at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Abuja's Maitama area, where ten people, including four children, lost their lives due to a stampede during a Christmas charity distribution.
In a season of joy and celebration, we grieve with fellow citizens mourning the painful losses of their loved ones. Our prayers of divine comfort and healing are with them.
President Bola Tinubu's government must urgently prioritise addressing widespread hunger, higher unemployment and the rapidly falling standard of living.
However, the resulting tragedy underscores the urgent need for a more structured and safer approach to distributing such assistance.
