He also extended his condolences to the immediate families of the victims and the entire people of the state, particularly Ibadan residents over the explosion allegedly caused by illegal miners, who stored explosive devices in one of the houses in the Bodija area of Oyo State capital.
Abidikugu, a United Kingdom-based psychiatric consultant described the sad incident as disheartening and unfortunate, wishing the people of Oyo State, particularly the victims, peace, comfort and lots of love at this time of sorrow.
He also commended Governor Makinde for his prompt response leading to the deployment of first responders and all relevant agencies within Oyo State, as well as earth-moving equipment, ambulances, emergency lights and security for comprehensive search and rescue operations at the scene of the explosion.
“I wish Governor Seyi Makinde, the Olubadan of Ibadan land and all the people of Oyo State, particularly the Bodija residents and victims’ families, peace, comfort and lots of love at this time of sorrow”.
