Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has pledged assistance to the survivors of the Saint Academy Jos school building collapse, which resulted in 22 fatalities and injured 154 others on July 12.
During a visit to the collapse site and local hospitals where the injured are being treated, Tinubu, represented by Belusochukwu Enwere, the National Chairman of the Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria, expressed his deep sorrow over the tragedy.
“I am here to convey a message of hope to all those injured, wishing them a quick recovery so they can return to classes and pursue their dreams,” Tinubu said.
“We pray for the souls of those who died to rest in peace.”
“We will do everything possible to ensure that the injured receive proper care and can return to school.
“This situation involves the lives of students and youths, which is crucial for our country’s future.”
Tinubu also urged builders to adhere strictly to construction standards to prevent similar tragedies.
“I call on the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria, COREN and the Institute of Building to enforce strict measures and sanctions on those who fail to comply with building standards,” he said.
