Gov. Mohammed Umaru-Bago of Niger State showered joy on Saratu Mohammed, a heroic survivor of the horrific Oct. 21, 2025, Essa petrol tanker explosion that killed 57 and injured 47, after she safely delivered a baby boy on New Year’s Day at University of Abuja Teaching Hospital. Bago hailed the birth as divine proof of Allah’s boundless mercy—a “child of destiny” amid recovery from blast wounds and childbirth.
He felicitated her family, urging them to raise the boy in faith to fulfill his purpose, while recommitting state aid for Saratu and fellow victims still healing. This uplifting triumph over tragedy in Katcha LGA kicks off 2026 with hope.
