Meanwhile, the media office of Atiku had in a statement responded to the statement of Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State that Atiku has not called or visited to sympathize with the people of the state over the explosion.

The media office had declared: “we wish to correct his expression about the response of His Excellency Atiku Abubakar to the recent explosion in the city of Ibadan.

“Atiku Abubakar made a condolence message about the Ibadan explosion, less than 24 hours of its occurrence, where he shared his commiseration and empathy with the good people and government of Oyo State over the incident.

“Perhaps the Governor has been too busy to take track of media reports on the incident.
“But we wish to put on record that on the 17th of January, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, did make a widely available message on the Ibadan incident, which reads as follows:

“I wish to express my condolences to the good people and government of Oyo State over the explosion that rocked the capital city of Ibadan late yesterday night.

While the government continues to provide humanitarian support to victims of the explosion, I commiserate with the families of those who might have lost their lives and property to the explosion. -AA”
