A former Governor of Kano state, Senator Musa Kwankwaso has called on the federal and State governments to leave no stone unturned in providing all necessary resources and support to enable the military to decisively defeat these terrorist networks.
Kwankwaso in a statement issued Tuesday said these latest attacks, following other recent incidents in Borno signal a disturbing resurgence of senseless terrorism that threatens the peace of the communities that have struggled so hard to rebuild after years of relative calm.
This, he said, cannot be tolerated.
He noted: “I am deeply saddened by the horrific multiple suicide bombings in Maiduguri, Borno State, which claimed the lives of 23 innocent people and injured over 100 others, as confirmed by the Nigeria Police Force.
“Now is not the time for defensiveness or complacency. Our gallant armed forces must be fully empowered to take decisive, proactive action against these enemies of Nigeria.
“The Federal and State governments must leave no stone unturned in providing all necessary resources and support to enable our troops to decisively defeat these terrorist networks.”
Kwankwaso commiserated with the bereaved families, the injured, and all the people of Borno State.
