President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed his deepest sympathies to the victims of a collapsed pavilion at the massively-attended campaign rally in Maiduguri, Borno State capital today, Monday.

President Buhari was quoted as saying, by his spokesman, Malam Garba Shehu: “I am shocked to hear about the many who suffered injury following the tragic incident at the stadium this afternoon in Maiduguri. May Allah heal all those that were injured.

“I understand that the Borno State government, the Red Cross and other aid agencies are taking steps to help affected people. May Allah heal the injured.”
