President Muhammadu Buhari has once again conveyed his sincere and
heartfelt condolences to all Nigerians who lost relatives in the
latest
terrorist atrocities in Jos, Kano, and Zaria.
President Buhari
joins them in mourning their loved ones who were brutally murdered in
the suicide bombings and attacks that also caused horrifying injuries to
others.
In a statement issued by Garba Shehu, Senior Special
Assistant to the President (Media & Publicity), Buhari urged all
Nigerians not to be unduly disheartened by the seeming resurgence of
terrorist attacks and atrocities in the country as his administration
remains fully committed to overcoming the challenges of insecurity,
terrorism and insurgency as quickly as possible.
“Already, the
intensified onslaught by the military on terrorists’ strongholds has led
to significant seizures of weapons and vehicles, a blockage of their
sources of arms and ammunition, and a decimation of their fighting men,”
the statement read.
President Buhari assured Nigerians of the
ability and readiness of the country’s armed forces and security
agencies to contain the frantic resort by the terrorists to attacks on
soft targets such as crowds and places of worship.
“The President
is convinced that with recent increases in troops deployment,
improvements in the supply of arms and equipment to the military, as
well as the ongoing effort to mobilize greater international cooperation
and support, the end of Boko Haram and terrorism in Nigeria is in
sight,” Shehu stated.
He calls on Nigerians to remain vigilant
and report any suspicious persons to security agents as his
administration continues to give the highest possible priority to
eradicating Boko Haram and ensuring greater security of lives and
property across the country.
