Ekiti Accident Victims, Families Get Osinbajo’s N5million Assistance


Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has sent relief packages to the families and victims of the accident involving a truck which rammed into a market at Iworoko Ekiti and killed 15 persons a fortnight ago. Osinbajo had last week pledged N3 million to the victims and their families during a condolence visit to the community which lost its monarch, the late Oba Oluwafemi Aladejana, five days after the accident.

He, however, sent N5 million to the victims. The community, led by the regent of Alaworoko Ekiti, Bolanle Ogundana, and President of Iworoko Progressives Union (IPU), Tajudeen Olayinka, while sharing the relief to the families and victims, expressed gratitude to the vice president for “the milk of human kindness”. Recipients on the occasion included representatives of the 15 dead persons, 14 injured persons and 28 others whose property were damaged.

Ogundana, who expressed the people’s gratitude to Osinbajo, told the gathering: “I want you to know that what you are being given today is a relief and not compensation for the victims. It is on this note that I want to humbly remind the Federal and state governments of their promises to the people of Iworoko-Ekiti in order to forestall the reoccurrence of this incident.”
