PRESIDENT BUHARI MOURNS MURDERED FIVE-YEAR-OLD HANIFA, COMMENDS DETECTIVE OPERATIONS LEADING TO ARRESTS

President Muhammadu Buhari Friday expressed the nation’s condolences to the family of the five-year-old school girl Hanifa Abubakar whose body was discovered in a shallow grave in Kano after near two months of fruitless search.

The President in the same breath has praised the work of the police and the secret service in unraveling the mystery behind the disappearance of Hanifa, and particularly for the arrest of her teacher and his other accomplices suspected of the child’s kidnap and murder.

President Buhari said the family and the whole nation which followed up on Hanifa’s travail every day since her disappearance in December last year were hoping for the girl to have been rescued alive and well, adding however that the very thorough and painstaking detective operation by the law enforcement bodies, leading to the discovery of the corpse and the arrest of the suspects who have already made confessions was commendable, calling it an achievement that should instill more public confidence in the authorities.

“When breakthroughs like this happen, people will talk differently of law enforcement,” said the President.

President Buhari prayed for the repose of the soul of the little school girl and urged her parents to bear the sad loss with courage and fortitude in God.

The President urged the Police and Ministry of Justice to uphold the integrity of the detective work that busted the case by preparing well and presenting a good case that will earn the respect of the court.

I can't bring myself to look at the child's picture.....it breaks my heart. Such a wicked world.

Ever since I read this news quite early in the morning I can only think of sending that beast of a man to face the firing squad but then I thought of the grieving parent and decide it is better I let them grief. The Good Lord Console them.

I almost shed tears after reading the story of how that little child got killed by her teacher

I pray she rests in peace.


And to the teacher, I pray justice Is served. He shouldn't be seen among the living .

May he die a very painful death

Nigeria is a graphical example of what hell looks like

Where is those muderers head?? I want to sell it at black market for 3k. Wicked people everywhere

Condolence buffon

Bad as it may seem, the soul of the innocent girl is strong for unraveling the culprits.

She's resting in peace now. Those that thought they took her life only succeeded in taking their own lives along

That's the best they are good at ... Reacting with no corresponding efforts to nip such dastardly acts in the bud

What a sad news

With the high rate of Kwaruption in the Judiciary and Police.I hope the family gets justice

God has left this nation cos the number of evil in this country ...thats y we hv unending sufferings
