President Bola Tinubu has directed the Armed Forces, police, and relevant intelligence agencies to track down the perpetrators of the barbaric attack in Nauru local government area of Kaduna State.
The attack, which took place in the early hours of Monday at Naridon Village in Kamaru Ward, Kauru local government area of Kaduna State, led to the gruesome murder of about 30 people, including women and children.
The president condemned the cowardly attack that not only claimed the lives of innocent citizens but also led to the burning down of their houses.
In a statement by his spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu described the assault “as an unprovoked act of terror against defenceless people”.
He stressed that those who seek to destabilise the hard-fought peace and security, which Kaduna State has enjoyed in recent times, will not go unpunished.
The President extended his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families, as well as to Governor Uba Sani, the government, and the entire good people of Kaduna State.
He reassured the state government and affected communities that the federal government stands firmly with them in this hour of grief and remains resolute in tackling security challenges nationwide.
“I have directed the Armed Forces, police, and relevant intelligence agencies to intensify operations across the affected areas to track down the perpetrators swiftly and restore normalcy to the region.
“Our administration has an unwavering commitment,” President Tinubu reiterates, “to strengthening security infrastructure, equipping response personnel, and neutralising criminal networks attempting to disrupt the peace of the nation.”
“I urge our local communities to cooperate with security forces by providing actionable intelligence that would help early response efforts,” President Tinubu added.
