President Goodluck Jonathan has condemned the Friday’s attacks on the Central Mosque in Kano where no fewer than 120 persons were killed.
The president while sending his heartfelt condolences to the people and Government of Kano State over the bloody attack, assured that the bloodthirsty men cannot tear the nation apart.
Jonathan equally condoled with all the families who lost their loved ones in the attack.
He urged all agencies and medical personnel to deploy every possible effort to assist the injured, and the general public to heed the call for the donation of blood by the hospitals where the injured are being treated.
President Jonathan in a statement issued on Friday reaffirmed that terrorism in all its forms and manifestation was a despicable and unjustifiable threat to the society.
President Jonathan called on all Nigerians not to despair in this moment of great trial “in our nation’s history but to remain united to confront the common enemy”.
The President expressed confidence that no terrorist act against fellow citizens will destroy the Nigerian spirit to remain positive, resolute and united in the quest for lasting peace and security in the country.
