He noted how she felt the pain of the victims and their families and spoke with emotion because she understood the gravity of what was happening to our nation. And now, as kidnapping and insecurity continue, many now realise that her tears weren’t weakness, they were humanity.
The skitmaker apologised to her for the ridicule and appreciated her for caring and speaking up.
“MUMMY! I just want to say we are sorry🙏🏻
Years ago, when you cried on national television over the pain, bloodshed, and kidnapping of innocent children,
You felt the pain of the victims and their families. You spoke with emotion because you understood the gravity of what was happening to our nation.
Today, as kidnapping and insecurity continue to affect innocent Nigerians, many now realise that your tears were not weakness. They were humanity.
We are sorry for the ridicule. Thank you for caring. Thank you for speaking up. And may God comfort every family affected by this tragedy and restore peace to our nation”.
