President Bola Tinubu has reacted personally to the stampedes that killed scores of people across the country. Most of the victims were children and women.
In his presidential chat on Monday, the president said that hunger and hardship are not peculiar to the country because the United States and the United Kingdom also have hungry and poor people.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu had earlier put the blame of the disasters on the organisers saying that he could see grave errors.
He said: “It is good to give. I have been giving out foodstuff commodities including envelopes in Bourdilion in the last 25 years. I have never experienced this kind of incident because we are organised, and disciplined. If you know you don’t have enough to give, don’t attempt to or even publish it.
“Every society, even in America, they have food banks, they have hungry people. in Britain, they have food banks, they have warehouses. But they are organised, they always be in line and take turn to collect (free foods).”
