President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has announced a change to his travel schedule following the recent killings in Plateau State, saying he would suspend his planned trip to Iperu, Ogun State, in order to visit Jos and stand with affected families.
In a statement personally signed by the President, Tinubu said his visit to Plateau is aimed at commiserating with victims, reinforcing security efforts, and assuring residents that justice will be served.
The full statement is below:
I have postponed my trip to Iperu, Ogun State. My first duty at this moment is to stand with the people of Plateau.
I will be in Jos to commiserate with families who have lost loved ones and to reaffirm that those who seek to spread fear will not prevail. We will continue to strengthen our security response and ensure that justice is done.
From Plateau, I will proceed to Lagos to observe Good Friday, and then continue with scheduled engagements in Ogun, Lagos, and Bayelsa focused on infrastructure, trade, and economic growth.
In moments of grief, we must stand together. In moments of progress, we must keep building.
The work continues. Nigeria First.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu
President
