President Bola Tinubu has mourned the death of Isa Bawa,
head of Gatawa district in Sabon Birni LGA of Sokoto.
Bawa died on Tuesday after three weeks in captivity.
In a statement on Wednesday, Ajuri Ngelale, the president’s
spokesperson, said Tinubu described “the savage attack on the traditional ruler
as deeply disturbing and a heinous act that will not go without a decisive
response”.
He also condemned the tragic circumstances leading to the monarch’s demise.
“The President
extends his profound condolences to the bereaved family, the Gobir Emirate, and
the government of Sokoto State,” Ngelale said.
“The President prays for the repose of the soul of the
traditional ruler and comfort to his family at this difficult time.”
Tinubu assured Nigerians that his administration “is
aggressively removing threats to ensure the security of the nation and that
these desperate acts of terror will be effectively countered”.
