First Lady Remi Tinubu is devasted over the death of Nabeeha Al-Kadriyar one of the young girls kidnapped on the outskirts of Abuja.
Nabeeha was kidnapped along with her father and sisters from their home on January 2.
Days after the abduction, the gunmen demanded a huge ransom and later killed Nabeeha as a warning when the money was not paid.
Devastated by the development, Remi Tinubu extended her condolences to the family of the victim.
“It is with a heavy heart that I acknowledge the devastating loss of Nabeeha and extend my deepest condolences to her grieving family. In difficult moments like this, I urge the nation to join in fervent prayers for the safe return of these girls. Let us hold the families close to our hearts in prayers,” she wrote on her X account Monday night.
“I implore our security agencies to intensify their efforts in addressing the pressing matter of kidnappings and insecurity in our nation. The safety and swift return of the Al-Kadriyar sisters and others in captivity should be our paramount concern.
“To the parents, especially mothers, I appeal for intensified prayers for our children and for peace to prevail in our beloved country. May the Almighty God comfort the Al-Kadriyar family for their loss and may God bring the other children back home safely. God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” she concluded.
