Atiku Abubakar Condemns Recent Attacks In The North

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has
condemned the twin explosions in Jos, the Plateau
State capital, which left scores of
fatalities and casualties.
Also, the former Vice President condemned the
killings in Maiduguri and Potiskum by those who
he described as “blood sucking vermin.”
The former Vice President in a press statement
released by his media office in Abuja on Monday
said he was gutted by the dastardly penchant of
wasting precious and innocent lives.
“I am gutted. I am saddened. I am heartbroken by
the murder of scores of innocent souls in Jos late
Sunday night,” Atiku is quoted to have said from
Saudi Arabia where he is on Lesser Hajj (Umrah).
He bemoaned the bestiality of the terrorists to lay
siege on innocent worshippers who were
undertaking a spiritual demand of the holy season
of Ramadan.
“That this particular attack came when people were
in the sanctuary of the mosque for the Ramadan
fasting prayer makes the attack more heart
wrenching. There can be no justification for this
wicked and satanic assault against these
worshippers and our common humanity. Clearly,
these terrorists are not adherents of any civilized
religion, and clearly they are not respecters of God.
“Sadly the victims of the Jos explosions add to the
long list of fatalities of terror in Nigeria. However,
as painful as these killings are, we must remain
resolute in standing with President Muhammadu
Buhari as the government explores every possible
avenues and initiatives that can degrade terrorism
in our country.
“The losses and trauma that come with terror
attacks is often piercing, but we must never lose
focus of our common conviction in victory.”
The Turaki Adamawa expressed confidence that the
measures being adopted by government would
eventually ensure the decimation and defeat of the
insurgents.
He expressed his condolences to the families of
the victims of the Jos, Maiduguri and Potiskum
attacks and prayed that God will grant the dead
eternal rest and comfort to their loved ones.
