An unconfirmed number of residents of Okija community in Anambra state have reportedly lost their lives in a stampede.

TheCable understands that the stampede occurred on Saturday morning during an event for the distribution of yuletide rice.

Breaking;
Close to 36 persons allegedly d!es in stampede in okija during "sharing of Christmas bags of Rice"

SOURCE

The Christmas giveaway was at the instance of ObiJackson

Na wa o


Ibadan 35
Anambra 36


Ya Allah please keep the northerners under your great wings
Amin

The organizers should be held responsible for this 😐

This is sad

The Ibadan incident should have made people be weary of large crowds for freebies.

Anything could spark a stampede at such a gathering.

Which kind sad news be this again.

Tinubu should please open the border atleast we Nigerians can see cheaper rice to buy instead of begging for rice.

A bag of rice used to be 7500 and since Buhari closed the border to help local farmers rice now unaffordable to common Nigerians.

What kind of people organizes these kind of things without safety measures...?

Hunger in the land.

May God help us

Fixed

Hia
I hope my brothers now know that hunger knows no tribe. Where freebies is announced in this tinubu Era, stampede must follow.

Instead of us to echo in unison, that this governmentis bent of killing nigerians, we will be here looking for the tribe that is most affected

Moreover if someone organized this giveaway at the backdrop of what happened in osun state, hold the organizers responsible

Hunger in this region no be play o

I still understand small pikin and xmas caroll joy, but for rice matter, no be small pikin again o...Na both adult and elderly this one dey affect


I hope those affected arent much

Madamvanessa, come and preach to us about the hunger in this region

There are times we need to raise above the lows and don't go lower with those throwing the first mud. This is a very unfortunate incident, we should rather commiserate with the families. Those unfortunate trolls mudslinging SW over the ibadan incident can now see that life is unpredictable. May the deceased rip and God comfort their families.

-Kiss the truth!

Oga Peter Obi and other obidient minors, oya come and cry about Tinubu as usual. Come and tell us how it was poverty that led to the stampede.

Those idiots rejoicing and politicizing the Ibadan incident as evident of Yoruba poverty can now hide their faces in shame. This is Anambra, the billionaires capital of SE and people are killing each other over mudu of rice.

And these events were organized by those who should know better, ex Ooni's wife, now, Obijackson. What are coffins doing there already?, were they envisaging the deaths?


-Kiss the truth!

They might be unconscious, Nigerians are quick to condem both the living and close to the grave victims ,oh less I forget, those quack doctors masquerading themselves as professionals,are the fastest fingers 1st to send u to great beyond. They don't waste time,dia usual remarks are D.O.A

Instead of yahoo boys like 8 ,should gather raffle for like 3 diff community. Both old and young go play am,and their gifts,if e too much bike no go pass 3.telly,fridge,fan,carton of noodles, beans,rice,yam,oil, just name it,no na dorime for lounge ,...a whole land of billionaires....

Oga Peter Obi

Hmmm, Reno Omokri is waiting for him too.


-Kiss the truth!

There's hunger in the land!!

See it can never be well with APC , this is biblical plague level famine and hardship happening right before our eyes

I don't believe this story

Even adults

I don't believe this story

Your unbelief wont change the reality of things

The world is bigger than your belief system, Kachi

Good, the reality could be this never happened

Whether the report is verifiably true or not, no one in their right senses would politicize or give ethnic coloration to a calamity that befalls people; irrespective of their region, religion, ethnicity or who they voted for, our shared humanity should always rise above all these primordial & diabolic sentiments.

May the souls of those who have died in avoidable stampedes Rest In Peace. State Governments especially should henceforth start paying closer attention to events that attract large gatherings before it becomes a pattern.

To the families and loved ones who are grieving, please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

May you find strength and comfort in the memories of those you have lost and in the love and support of those around you. We stand with you, united in compassion and solidarity.
