The presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), on Wednesday expressed shock at reports of the latest Boko Haram attacks in Borno State.
The sect reportedly attacked Maiduguri, Konduga and Monguno, with 40,000 displaced residents joining the ranks of the increasing Internally Displaced Persons.
In a statement by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu, Buhari was quoted as expressing his condolences, support and prayers to all those -including soldiers affected by the latest insurgents’ attacks.
The statement partly read, “Buhari, however, assured the people that the situation in the affected areas won’t last forever.
“While I commiserate with the latest victims of this despicable orgy of violence of Borno State, I equally implore them to bear in mind that this situation won’t last forever.
“In spite of the incompetent handling of this insurgency by the Federal Government solution is in sight with the APC set to dislodge the PDP administration that has ruinously led this great country for nearly 16 years.”
