Asíwájú Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the National Leader and Presidential Standard-bearer for the All Progressives Congress, has vehemently denounced the terrorist attack that took place on Tuesday at the Federal Capital Territory's Medium Security Custodial Center in Kuje.
Tinubu emphasised that the country's ongoing terror attacks are alarming and urged Nigerians to support legitimate authorities while being watchful.
The APC presidential candidate said in a moving statement released on Friday by his media office and signed by Mr. Tunde Rahman:
“Tuesday’s terror attack on Kuje Medium Security Custodial Centre is worrisome. These incessant attacks on government’s institutions and innocent citizens is a sad reminder that we still have a lot to do to put these evil forces in check.
“I totally condemn this dastardly attack. The government must immediately go after the attackers and fleeing inmates of this facility.
“While also calling for full investigation of the incident and the possible failure to act on intelligence, we must all remain vigilant and united.
“This moment calls for national unity and deep introspection.
We must continue to support the President Muhammadu Buhari administration in its battle against insurgents and determination to confront these agents of darkness.
“I commiserate with the families and relations of those who lost their lives in the attack. I also call on the government to continue to provide succor and medical attention to those injured.”
