President Bola Tinubu has condemned the deadly attack on Naridon Village in Kaduna State and directed security agencies to arrest those responsible and rescue those who were kidnapped.
The attack occurred in the early hours of Monday in Kamaru
Ward, Kauru Local Government Area, where about 30 people, including women and
children, were killed and several houses also set ablaze.
In a statement issued on Tuesday by his spokesman, Bayo
Onanuga, Tinubu described the attack as a “barbaric and cowardly act of terror”
against innocent people.
He said: “I have directed the Armed Forces, police, and
relevant intelligence agencies to intensify operations across the affected
areas to track down the perpetrators swiftly, secure the release of abducted
individuals, and restore normalcy to the region.”
The President warned that those behind the attack would be
brought to justice and said anyone seeking to undermine peace in Kaduna would
not succeed.
Tinubu also expressed sympathy to the families of those
killed, Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, the state government and the people of
Kaduna.
He assured the state of the Federal Government’s support in
tackling insecurity.
He said: “Our administration has an unwavering commitment to
strengthening security infrastructure, equipping response personnel, and
neutralising criminal networks attempting to disrupt the peace of the nation.”
The President also urged residents to work closely with
security agencies by providing useful information.
He added: “I urge our local communities to cooperate with
security forces by providing actionable intelligence that would help early
response efforts.”
