The Presidency on Monday evening reacted to the killing of over 30 school children in Potiskum, Yobe State, by a suspected Boko Haram suicide bomber, who exploded a bomb as students gathered for a Monday morning assembly.

A statement released by the Presidential spokesman, Reuben Abati stated that “President Goodluck Jonathan extends heartfelt commiserations to the Government and people of Yobe State on the death of many students in a bomb attack on Potiskum earlier today”.

President Jonathan also conveyed his deepest sympathies to parents of the school pupils who lost their lives in the blast, noting that it was a “heinous attack”.

He condemned “the dastardly murder of the students on their school’s assembly ground as they prepared to begin another week of study in pursuit of a better life for themselves and their families.

“He assures the grieving parents and people of Yobe State that no matter how long it takes, the Federal Government will ensure that all those responsible for the senseless murder of so many promising youngsters and the continuing acts of terrorism across the country are brought to justice and made to pay for their atrocious crimes”.

President Jonathan further assured citizens of the country that in spite of seeming setbacks, his administration remained fully committed to winning the war against insurgency and terrorism.

“Nigeria will ultimately overcome the current security challenges imposed by domestic terrorists and their foreign allies, with the dedication of its Armed Forces and national security agencies”, the statement added.

See as e face be? Make dem sweep am comot aso rock to otuoke abeg

He's always 'condemning'. Scores have died and campaigning is still going on. I dunno how some of our leaders think and act like they don't care about what's happening in the North. One of the children that died today could have been their grandchild or something. Its saddening. It is well.

Remain steadfast our dear president. God is with you.
By His Grace, Nigeria will be peaceful again.

Am sick of hearing that word "condemned" come out of his mouth.

This is all we hear everyday, GEJ or FG condemn this, GEJ or FG condemn that, the thing just tire me totally,
Jonathan should please just shut the up if he has nothing good to say!
Action speaks louder than words.
