Read the full statement below:
President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
condemns the reversion by the
terrorist group, Boko Haram to the
callous bombing of soft targets in
parts of Nigeria in the wake of the
ongoing rapid recovery by gallant
Nigerian troops and their
multinational allies of areas
formerly controlled by the sect.
President Jonathan commiserates
with all families who have lost
loved ones in the bombings which
continued today with attacks on
Kano and Potiskum.
The President shares the grief of all
the bereaved families and is deeply
saddened by the continued loss of
many innocent lives at the hands of
misguided and desperate fanatics
who are now feeling the heat of the
intense counter –insurgency
operation by the Nigerian Armed
Forces.
The President assures all Nigerians
and the people of the North-Eastern
states in particular that the days of
mourning victims of incessant
terrorist attacks in the country will
soon be over as the tide has now
definitely turned against Boko
Haram.
President Jonathan further assures
the people of Nigeria that the
gallant, courageous and patriotic
officers and men of the Nigerian
Armed Forces, supported with new
platforms, equipment and logistics
provided by the Federal
Government will carry the ongoing
operations against the terrorists
through to a successful conclusion
in the shortest possible time.
He affirms that his administration
will continue to take all necessary
action to guarantee the success of
ongoing military operations against
the terrorist group and drastically
reduce its ability to take and hold
territory or recruit, groom and
brainwash young persons to
undertake suicide bombing attacks
on soft targets.
