The All Progressives Congress has condemned Boko Haram’s bomb attacks on the Federal Capital Territory, saying no matter its frenetic efforts, the sect will soon be crushed.
The terrorist group on Friday night attacked Kuje and Nyanya areas of Abuja and killed scores of people, while leaving many others injured.
The ruling party stated that no amount of cowardly attacks will save Boko Haram insurgents from being defeated shortly.
In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, on Saturday, the party said the attacks, as well as other recent ones, were part of the “cowardly tactics of the terrorists to focus on soft targets, after the military has succeeded in putting them on the run.”
The party said the “avowed determination of the Buhari administration to crush Boko Haram, which has seen the military recording a string of successes against the terrorists, would not be weakened by “these dastardly acts that are nothing but the last kicks of a dying monster.”
The APC appealed to Nigerians to be vigilant, saying that Boko Haram members, who had been smoked out of their strongholds, might be seeking refuge elsewhere across the country.
