President Muhammadu

Buhari has condemned in the

strongest language the latest

terrorist attacks on Borno

and Yobe communities by the

Boko Haram bandits.

In a statement issued by his

Senior Special Assistant on

Media and Publicity, Garba

Shehu, the president said he

was deeply touched by these

mindless incidents of

violence on innocent people

during the month of

Ramadan.

According to President

Buhari, the terrorists are

enemies of everybody, and

enemies of humanity

everywhere.

He explained that no sane

people who believe in any

god would be destroying the

lives of innocent people in

cold blood, adding that

terrorists don’t represent any

religion.

The President said the

pattern of their

indiscriminate violence

against innocent people

shows that they represent

nothing else but anarchy and

devilry.

In what appears to be one of

his toughest expressions of

outrage, President Buhari

reminded the terrorists of his

uncompromising resolve to

tackle them with all the

resources at the disposal of

his government.

“Make no mistake about it:

this government is ever

determined to discharge its

fundamental duty of

protecting the lives of its

citizens from physical threats

from any groups bent on

creating chaos, confusion,

and on destroying social and

economic life of the people”,

he further warned.

President Buhari who extended his

sympathy to the families of the victims,

reassured all Nigerians that his

government would never tolerate to

terrorist blackmail, and that our security

forces would confront the Boko Haram

bandits to the last man.

Describing terrorists as “cowards who

lack any moral inhibition and any iota

of humanity to reason compassionately”

would not find Nigeria a safe haven,

because “they would be “hunted down

without mercy and compromise.”

He reassured Nigerians that security

would be tackled by his administration

with vigorous determination.

The President, however, advised

Nigerian to show more vigilance and be

alert to the presence of suspicious people

around them, adding that “the terrorists

are enemies of religion and humanity.”

He explained that “no true believers in

any God would target worshipers, holy

places, or people who are fasting and

other innocent Nigerians.”
