The Impeached governor of Adamawa State, Murtala Nyako, has condoled with the government and people of Kano State, over Friday’s bomb attack that resulted in several deaths.
Nyako, a retired Naval top brass, who spoke through a statement issued by his spokesperson, Ahmed Sajoh, urged Nigerians to unite and realize that terror knows no ethnic and religious differences, commending the All Progressives Congress, APC, for postponing the scheduled primary by one day as a mark of respect for the departed.
He said that every responsive and responsible leadership in the country should show sufficient sensitivity to the loss of lives and destruction of property occasioned by the insurgency.
Calling on the people to be vigilant at all times, Nyako appealed to governments at all levels to find out ways of supporting a community-based internal security arrangement that will help in protecting the people.
“The recent success recorded by local hunters, vigilantes and volunteers testify to the need for community vigilance and support in the fight against insurgency and terrorism,” he said.
Endorsing calls by some leaders that Nigerians should defend themselves against terrorists, Nyako urged the leadership of the APC and the delegates to ensure that they conduct peaceful, credible and transparent party primaries, reminding them that they left their former parties in protest of impunity and lack of transparency.
