President
Goodluck Jonathan has condemned Tuesday’s senseless killings of
students by suspected terrorists at a college in Yobe State.
Special
Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity, Dr Reuben Abati, said
in a statement that the heinous, brutal and mindless killing of the guiltless
students by deranged fanatics shows clearly that Boko Haram and their sponsors
have lost all human morality and descended to bestiality.
President
Jonathan however, reassured that his administration will not relent in the
current efforts to end the scourge of terrorism.
While
expressing deep sadness and anguish, the Nigerian leader, on behalf of people
of government of Nigeria, consoled the parents and relatives of the murdered
students
He
assures the nation that his administration will not relent in its ongoing
efforts to end the scourge of terrorism in parts of the country which has sadly
claimed more innocent lives today.
The Armed Forces of Nigeria and other security
agencies will continue to prosecute the war against terror with full vigour,
diligence and determination until the dark cloud of mass murder and destruction
of lives and property is permanently removed from our horizon. Unofficial figures put the death toll at 29.
