President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the latest massacre
of 15 people in Goronyo and Illela local government areas of Sokoto, warning
that “this needless and mindless violence against innocent people cannot go
unpunished.”
Reacting to the incident from South Africa through his media
aide, Garba Shehu, President Buhari warned that:
“This persistent and unprovoked violence against unarmed
civilians must be met with a fierce response by the government.
“Let me once again, reassure Nigerians, that this administration will not abandon them to their fate in the face of this existential challenge caused by banditry.”
According to the President, “We are taking delivery of
military equipment to improve the capacity of our security forces to
effectively deal with this issue.
“Our military is also deploying advanced technology to
enhance surveillance and related operations to locate and crush these criminals
and enemies of our common humanity.
“This administration will not tolerate this state of affairs
where criminals deprive the people of their means of livelihood and turn them
into beggars and refugees. The bandits are living in a fool’s paradise if they
believe that they can’t be crushed. The criminals cannot be lucky always; they
will ultimately meet their Waterloo. Evil cannot triumph over good no matter
how long it takes.”
