In a statement by his media aide, Ahmed Maiyaki, the Governor said the attack was an apparent attempt by miscreants with the aim of causing confusion in the state and to heighten tension among the peaceful people of the state.
“It is rather sad that some people will stop at nothing in achieving their selfish goals including shedding the blood of innocent citizens of the state,” Yero said.
The statement disclosed that the Governor had directed the State Emergency Management Agency to immediately move to the affected community to provide victims of the attack with necessary support and assistance.
Yero called on people in the affected community to remain calm as security agencies were already investigating the matter with the aim of bringing the perpetrators to book.
