By Alhaji Musa Bah


In a touching show of solidarity, top-prominent 2028 APC Flagbearer Aspirant, Ady Macauley visited victims of a devastating fire that swept through Crab Town, Aberdeen, on Thursday 17th April, 2025 night. 

The inferno, which ravaged the densely populated community, displaced over fifty families and wiped out countless investments. Thankfully, no lives were lost.

Ady Macauley, known for his deep community ties, immersed himself in the situation, personally reaching out to victims and offering heartfelt sympathy. Speaking not just as a public figure, but as a “brother, son, neighbour, and everything,” Macauley comforted affected residents, sharing in their pain and offering words of encouragement during their time of distress.

His actions on the ground reflect a leader whose aspirations are rooted in empathy, humility, and a profound sense of duty to the people he seeks to serve. 

Rather than standing at a distance, Macauley chose to walk among the victims, listen to their concerns, and affirm his commitment to standing by communities in moments of hardship.

As Macauley’s political journey unfolds, his genuine response to this tragedy speaks volumes about the character he would bring to leadership, one grounded in compassion, responsiveness, and a strong sense of communal responsibility.

Authorities are continuing assessments of the full extent of the damage, while calls for urgent support to the displaced families grow louder.
