DR MRS MARTINA NENTAWE YILWATDA ALONGSIDE HER HUSBAND PROF NENTAWE PAY VISIT TO VICTIMS OF ANG. RUKUBA RECENT ATTACK
Today, I stood beside my husband Prof Nentawe Yilwatda as we visited the victims of the painful attack in Angwan Rukuba.
The grief in the eyes of families, the silence of those in recovery, and the strength of survivors remind us that Plateau is hurting, yet still standing.
As part of our support, my husband donated the sum of 15 million naira to assist the victims and other vulnerable patients receiving care at the Jos University Teaching Hospital.
We offered our deepest condolences to every family that has lost a loved one. No words can fully heal this pain, but we share in your sorrow and hold you in our hearts.
We strongly condemn these repeated attacks on innocent and vulnerable citizens. No society should live in fear, and no community deserves such cruelty. This must stop. We must speak with one voice against violence and protect the dignity of every life. The safety of our people must remain our highest priority.
As a people, we must stay united. These attacks did not start today, and they did not begin with any one government. We must not politicize the lives of our people or use pain as a tool for division.
Let us come together across all lines; ethnic, religious, and political to face this common enemy and work towards lasting peace. I believe in the leadership of our President to take firm steps toward restoring peace, and I encourage all citizens to support every sincere effort aimed at ending this cycle.
My heart is heavy, but my hope is strong. I pray that God comforts every grieving family, heals the wounded, and restores peace to Plateau. May Nigeria rise above pain and find unity, healing, and lasting peace.
