The Federal House of Representatives has asked the Federal Government to pay N20 million each to the families of Miss Favour Ojima Omali and Miss Gloria Sabo Gajere, who lost their lives in a fire incident at the Federal Government College, Keffi in 2017.
This comes after the House on Wednesday, Feb 23, considered the report of the committee that investigated the incident and adopted the recommendations of the committee which indicted the school management for negligence.
The committee recommended that the ministry of education tenders an apology to the families of the victims and that the burnt College Hostel be named after Miss Ojima Favour Tony – Omali and Miss Glory Sabo Gajere or simply called Ojima and Glory Hostel for paying the ultimate price for the negligence of the school authorities.
Also, the House resolved that the Ministry of Education should be responsible for the payment of all outstanding hospital bills incurred by the parents of another victim, Juan Joshua, and subsequent treatment until she is stabilized/healed.
