The President Bola Tinubu-led government has revealed a plan to build infrastructure in the northwest zone of the country under the Fulako Initiative.

The government said that it would also develop the Tudun Biri community, in Kaduna, where a recent bombing campaign accidentally killed over 80 people and wounded several others.

Vice President Kashim Shettima stated this during his commiseration visit to the Kaduna village.

He promised the government would investigate the incident, in order ā€œto ensure that future occurrences are averted.ā€

ā€œThe government will go to the root of the issue and anyone found culpable will be punished accordingly,ā€ Shettima said.

The Nigerian military had apologized for the grave error. The Chief of Army Staff, Lt-General Taoreed Lagbaja, said that the fighter jet pilots took the victims to be bandits.
