President Muhammadu Buhari is saddened by the gruesome vehicle accident in Mgbowu, Awgu Local Government Area of Enugu State in which scores of people died, most of them school pupils, says presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina.
The Enugu vehicle accident led to the death of many school children on October 29.
“The President condoles with families and kith and kin of the dead, praying that God will grant them succour, and spare the country of such tragedy in future.
“He also commiserates with the Catholic Church of Awgu, which runs Presentation Nursery and Primary School that the pupils attended, and the Enugu State government.
“President Buhari enjoins vehicle owners to ensure road worthiness, as initial reports attributed the accident to brake-failure by the truck involved,” the statement said.
