Atiku condemns attack on innocent travelers in Plateau

Former Vice-president and 2019 presidential candidate of Nigeria opposition, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has condemned attacks on innocent travelers on a major highway in Plateau State and those too numerous to mention across the country in recent times.

Atiku commiserated with the families of the deceased.

“One, for losing a dear one and, secondly, in the gruesome and callous manner they met their untimely death.

“It is acknowledged that the security outfits are doing their very best in the current circumstance to make all of us safe.

“However, skirmishes like this and the pain accompanying it make us feel as though enough is not being done.

“We must continue to pray and to give all moral and logistical support for security operatives to continue to face this battle and register victory that will restore peace and safety of lives and property to every Nigerian,” he said.

Atiku prayed that the Almighty Allah would heal the land and accept all the souls that had been lost to these cruel acts of killing.
