According to a statement by Garba Shehu, his senior special assistant on Media and Publicity, the president has also ordered the security agencies to avert further attacks.
He described as “wicked and callous” attacks on even innocent children.
“The president assured the governor and people of the state that relevant security agencies have been directed to do everything possible to arrest those behind the regrettable incidents and avert further attacks,” the statement read.
Describing the attack as one too many, the president promised that everything would be done to provide security for the people in the rural communities.
He also commiserated with families of the victims and wished the injured speedy healing. – Punch
