President Bola Tinubu has directed security agencies to track down and bring to justice those responsible for the deadly attack on Naridon Village in Kauru Local Government Area of Kaduna State that claimed about 30 lives.
The President’s directive followed the early Monday assault on the community, where gunmen reportedly killed residents, including women and children, and set several houses ablaze.
In a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu condemned the incident, describing it as an unprovoked act of terrorism against innocent civilians.
He said those behind the attack would be held accountable, stressing that efforts to undermine the peace and improved security recorded in Kaduna State would not succeed.
The President reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to strengthening Nigeria’s security architecture by improving security infrastructure, equipping personnel and dismantling criminal networks threatening lives and property.
Tinubu also extended his condolences to the families of those who lost loved ones, as well as to Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, the state government and residents affected by the tragedy.
The Federal Government reiterated its resolve to support security agencies in pursuing those responsible for the attack and preventing similar incidents across the country.
