Buhari Condemns latest Boko Haram attacks, vows to curb terrorism
The President stated further that the pattern of their indiscriminate violence against innocent people shows that they represent nothing else but anarchy and devil.
He reminded the Boko Haram terrorists of his uncompromising resolve to tackle them with all the resources at the disposal of his government.
“Make no mistake about it, this government is ever determined to discharge its fundamental duty of protecting the lives of its citizens from physical threats from any groups bent on creating chaos, confusion, and on destroying social and economic life of the people”, he warned.
President Buhari, who extended his sympathy to the families of the victims, reassured all Nigerians that his government would never tolerate terrorist blackmail, and that the security forces would confront the Boko Haram bandits to the last man.
He promised that the terrorists, whom he described as “cowards who lack any moral inhibition and any iota of humanity to reason compassionately”, would not find Nigeria a safe haven, because they would be “hunted down without mercy and compromise.”
Mr President while reassuring Nigerians that security would be tackled by his administration with vigorous determination advised that Nigerians should be more vigilance and be alert to the presence of suspicious people around them, adding that “the terrorists are enemies of religion and humanity.”
He explained that “no true believers in any God would target worshippers, holy places, or people who are fasting and other innocent Nigerians.”
On Saturday, three people were reportedly killed and 15 others injured after two female suicide bombers attempt to attacked an hospital in Molai area of Maiduguri, Borno State failed.
