In a statement issued on Monday, President Tinubu conveyed his sympathy, acknowledging the heaviness of the news and offering prayers for comfort to General Abubakar, the bereaved family, and all those affected by the painful loss.

“General, please accept my sympathy and condolences. My prayers are with you at this time of mourning. May Almighty Allah grant Hajiya Asabe Aljannah firdaus,” expressed President Tinubu. The former head of state is joined by many in mourning the departure of Hajiya Salamatu Asabe and cherishing the legacy and memories she leaves behind.

In a devastating turn of events, Jamima Shetima Balami, a 24-year-old Mass Communication student at the Federal Polytechnic Mubi in Adamawa State, has reportedly taken her own life. Balami, who was close to completing her Industrial Training at Adamawa Television, was found deceased at her residence in Vinikilang.

Preliminary reports suggest that she ingested a substance believed to be rat poison, indicating a tragic end to her young life. Sources close to the situation indicate that the decision may have been influenced by relationship struggles, especially after her boyfriend, a university lecturer, reportedly ended their relationship.

The heartbreaking incident has been reported to the police by Balami’s father, highlighting the urgent need for increased awareness and support for mental health issues, especially among students facing emotional challenges. The community mourns the loss of a promising young individual and reflects on the broader issues surrounding mental health in academic settings.
