We, the global URI family, mourn alongside our sisters and brothers in Nairobi, Kenya and Jos, Nigeria for the loss of life and injuries suffered during this past week’s bombings. These acts of violence that wound these communities are deplorable and cruel, and our hearts break for the pain the citizens of these regions continue to endure. 

We send strength and resolve to our URI sisters and brothers who work fearlessly in the face of present danger, and offer our support to the interfaith and community-building efforts we know will bring peace and healing to these regions.  On this sad occasion and always, we hold the people of Jos and Nairobi in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.

May the people of Nigeria live in peace.

May the people of Kenya live in peace.

May the people Africa live in peace.
