I am deeply saddened by the tragic crash of the Nigerian Air Force aircraft in Ondo State, involving 25 passengers and seven crew members.
This is a profoundly painful moment for the families who have lost their loved ones, the Nigerian Air Force, the Armed Forces of Nigeria, and the entire nation.
No words can adequately express the magnitude of such a devastating loss. Behind every life lost is a family, a community, colleagues and loved ones whose lives have been changed forever.
My heart goes out to the bereaved families during this incredibly difficult period. May God grant them the strength to endure this painful loss, comfort their hearts, and give them the courage to face the days ahead.
I also extend my deepest condolences to the leadership, officers and entire personnel of the Nigerian Air Force. The loss of those who serve our country in the line of duty is a national tragedy, and their sacrifice must never be taken for granted.
At this moment of grief, our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by this heartbreaking incident. May the nation respond with compassion, responsibility and solidarity, while the appropriate authorities conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash.
May the souls of the departed rest in perfect peace, and may God grant their families, colleagues and the Nigerian Air Force the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.
Nigeria mourns. We remember their service. We honour their sacrifice. We stand with their families and the Nigerian Air Force.
