Abuja - President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed sadness over the
reported dastardly bomb attack at a church on the outskirts of Potiskum,
Yobe, on Sunday.
This is contained in a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday by the President’s
Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
According to the statement, Buhari deeply regrets the unfortunate loss of lives
in the attack and commiserates with all those who lost loved ones in the
incident which also caused needless injury to others and damage to the
church building.
"The President wholly condemns the resumption of attacks by terrorists on
places of worship-- which are highly revered places of prayer and communion
with God for most Nigerians.
"Nigerians are a very religious people and President Buhari believes that the
terrorists who wantonly attack our places of worship have willfully declared
war on all that we value, and must, therefore, be confronted with all our might
and collective resolve," the statement said.
The President reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to doing everything
possible to eradicate Boko Haram, terrorism and mindless extremism from
Nigeria in the shortest possible time.
He further assured all Nigerians that terrorism would ultimately be defeated
and full security restored in all parts of the country for people to safely
practice their respective faiths with liberty wherever they may reside in the
nation.
According to the President, the constitution gives all Nigerians that right and
the present administration will deploy all required force and resources to
protect citizens’ right to freedom of worship.

J.

the condemnation won't rebuild the church or raise the dead, so what for

Too little too late... Buhari, you said you will hit the ground running, but because of your old age, you hit the ground and got stock there.

Resign!!!!

We want actions. When I heard from channels TV when their reporter in Borno was saying that nothing new is being done by the military since Buhari took over. That was when I lost hope that this man had no plan whatsoever.

Na so so condemn notin as CHANGED,ewww naija don enter one chance

We all condemn it too... It's his authority to take actions. My Opinion.

We need u to destroy those monsters n nt u condemning their attacks!

Buhari should back the condemnation with action ...


Half-hearted press release won't halt the boko haram madness, if in doubt ask Jonathan.

Femi is the one talking... Very soon Pa will deny everything...

ALL HAIL THE CONDEMNING PRESIDENT....

Hopefully soon, all these will be over
