The Tudun Biri community in Kaduna State  has disowned a suit instituted at the Federal High Court, Kaduna, seeking N33 billion compensation from the federal government over the army bombing accident that left nearly 100 people of the community dead and scores injured.

A man who claimed to be a native, Dalhatu Salihu, filed a suit through a lawyer, Mukhtar Usman, at the Federal High Court, Kaduna demanding the said sum as compensation. He claimed he was taking the action on behalf of the people of Tudun Biri,.

But the leaders of the community and people directly affected by the bombing mishap yesterday disclaimed the suit when they visited Sir Kashim Ibrahim House.

 They said they didn’t know anyone by that name and he was not from the community, adding that they are satisfied with the action of the federal government and the support rendered so far by the Kaduna State government since the incident. They however appealed that in addition to the various promises, they have jobless graduates who should be assisted with jobs.

Speaking during a thank you visit to Governor Uba Sani, the Village Head of Tudun Biri, Malam Balarabe Garba said, “we learnt that some people went to court on our behalf. We are not part of this, we didn’t support this and we didn’t send anyone to go to court. We are peaceful people and we don’t support taking the government to court. We are happy with the reaction of the Kaduna State and federal government following the bomb incident. The Federal Government and Kaduna state government took several measures and made promises, which we can only appreciate for their support.”

Also, the leader of Christians in Tudun Biri, Reverend Musa Saidu expressed appreciation to Kaduna State government and the federal government for the steps taken to support the people of the community over the accident.

 “We are united and we do things together. There is no way we are going to support anyone to take measures against the government which came to our assistance and is doing everything possible to ensure the welfare of the people of the community. On behalf of Christians in Tudun Biri, we have not mandated anyone to take the government to court.”

Similarly, the Chief Imam of Tudun Biri, Malam Ashiru Ja’afaru said they are happy with what the government is doing about the incident, and would support the government to fulfil its promises.

 “We didn’t mandate anybody to take the government to court, whoever did that is not from us, and he is doing it without our permission. We urge the Kaduna State government to find him and let the law take its course.”

Governor Sani Uba in response to their address, said several parties have made efforts to give the bomb incident religious coloration or politicise it, but since it was one of the most united communities in Kaduna state, the resilient community resisted all the overtures.
