Oluremi Tinubu, the first lady, has asked security agencies
to intensify efforts in rescuing the remaining five sisters abducted in the
Bwari area council of Abuja.
In a statement on Monday, Tinubu condemned the killing of
Nabeeha, one of the six sisters abducted by the gunmen.
The six girls were abducted alongside their father when
gunmen attacked their residence in Zuma 1 in Bwari area council of Abuja on
January 5.
The gunmen later released the father of the girls to sort
out ransom payment.
The first lady called on Nigerians to pray for the family
and the release of the girls, adding that their return should be a primary
concern for all.
“It is with a heavy heart that I acknowledge the devastating
loss of Nabeeha and extend my deepest condolences to her grieving family,” she
said.
“In difficult moments like this, I urge the nation to join
in fervent prayers for the safe return of these girls.
“Let us hold the families close to our hearts in prayers. I
implore our security agencies to intensify their efforts in addressing the
pressing matter of kidnappings and insecurity in our nation.
“The safety and swift return of the Al-Kadriyar sisters and
others in captivity should be our paramount concern.
“To the parents, especially mothers, I appeal for
intensified prayers for our children and for peace to prevail in our beloved
country.
“May the Almighty God comfort the Al-Kadriyar family for
their loss and may God bring the other children back home safely.”
