Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, has expressed deep sorrow over a tragic motor accident that claimed the lives of seven persons from Lawanti community in Akko Local Government Area of the state.
The victims were reportedly travelling to Maiduguri, Borno State, to attend a wedding ceremony when the fatal accident occurred.
In a condolence message issued on Saturday and signed by the Director-General, Press Affairs, Gombe Government House, Ismaila Misilli, the governor described the incident as a painful and devastating loss, not only to the affected families but also to the entire Lawanti community, Akko Local Government Area and Gombe State as a whole.
Governor Yahaya said the untimely deaths of the victims had deeply touched the hearts of many, noting that no words could adequately console families who lost their loved ones under such tragic circumstances.
He commiserated with the families of the deceased, including the District Head of Jalingo, Bello Hassan Babangida, who lost his sister and niece; Idris Lawanti Maigari, who lost his daughter; and the Councillor representing Akko Ward, Idris A. Isah Lawanti, who also lost close relatives.
The governor prayed that Almighty Allah grants the bereaved families, relatives and the entire Lawanti community the strength, patience and fortitude to bear the immense loss.
He also prayed for the forgiveness of the shortcomings of the deceased, that their good deeds be accepted, and that Allah grants their souls eternal rest in Aljannatul Firdaus.
