Offa Christmas Day Explosion Victims Allege Abandonment by Kwara Govt, Military; Injured Elderly Woman, Son Seek Urgent Assistance

Victims of the Christmas Day explosion in Offa, Kwara State, have decried the lack of government and military response in the aftermath of the incident. Among those affected were Mrs. Moromoke Saka and her 25-year-old son, Quadir Saka, who sustained injuries and were left to seek medical care on their own. Despite claims by the local government that treatment would be free, hospital staff reported no official directive had been received. SaharaReporters intervened to cover the medical expenses for the mother and son. Residents continue to call for urgent support, as the Kwara State Government has yet to provide official relief or response.
