The Managing Editor of PRNIGERIA, Economic Confidential and other titles, Rahman Raheem, popularly known as RR has condemned the President Tinubu’s failure to swiftly visit the families of the victims of Kaduna bombing as ‘unacceptable blunder’
Raheem stated that the president should have personally visited the village of the accidental aerial bombardment, empathise, commiserate and apologise to the bereaved over what he described as ‘monumental disaster immediately he returned from his overseas’ trip.
He made the condemnation via his official Facebook page on Tuesday.
Recall that the president ordered an investigation into a military drone strike that killed over 80 civilians gathered for a religious celebration over the weekend, the latest in a series of errant strikes as the country fights armed groups.
