Just In : Buhari Condemns Niger Attack, Says it’s a Direct Assault
The president of Nigeria, Mahammadu Buhari has condemned gunmen attack in Shiroro local Government Area of Niger State.
According to Buhari in ,he refers to the Attack in Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State as a direct assault on Nigeria, which will not go unpunished. We honour our security forces, and particularly those brave souls who have given their lives fighting the evil that is terrorism.
Sadly, Nigeria’s fight against terrorism continues. It is a battle that is taking its toll on all of us. But we shall not relent, nor shall we surrender.
We say it again that we have reduced Boko Haram to a shell of its former self. But terrorists are parasites. They thrive when the world is suffering.
This atrocity only serves to further strengthen us against them. Nigeria is united in obliterating these demons. Each day we grow closer to that goal. When they lash out during times of global suffering, it is the act of a cornered animal, an act of desperation.
As always, their goal is the same: to sow fear and division amongst us. We will not let them.
Instead let us pray for the families and loved ones of those who sacrificed their lives in the fight against evil, and let us pray for the safe and speedy return of those abducted. We will do everything possible to ensure their return.
And to the sadists, I say this: we are coming. No matter what rock you crawl under, what hole you sink into, what lie you hide behind, we are coming and we will find you. Shiroro will see justice. Nigeria will know peace.
