Saraki Condemns Renewed Boko Haram Attacks

PRESIDENT of the Senate, Senator  Bukola Saraki, has condemned the renewed onslaught against innocent Nigerians by the Boko Haram sect especially during the holy month of Ramadan, just as he urged all Nigerians especially the religious faithful to pray to God to continue to save the country from all forms of calamity.
In a statement yesterday by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Senate President,  Yusuph Olaniyonu, Saraki  also expressed deep pain over the death of six school children in Lagos following a boat mishap that involved 14 school children who were being conveyed across Ojo to Irewe jetty.

Sen. Saraki who noted that the military authorities would do everything necessary to prevent the unwarranted attacks by Boko Haram from escalating, however, hailed efforts so far by President Muhammadu Buhari to ensure that Nigerians were safe and secured in all parts of the country, especially in the North-East geo-political zone.
According to the statement, Senate President Saraki  was particularly unhappy  that the insurgents could let loose their suicide squad on a day the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, was in Maiduguri, on behalf of the Federal Government, for on-the-spot-assessment of the situation of the internally displaced persons with a view to providing additional succour to affected families and communities.
Saraki said: “It was really a sad day for me to learn that suicide bombers unleashed attack on the people on a day the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo visited Maiduguri to see things for himself and also visit beleaguered families and communities whose lives and means of livelihoods have been adversely affected by the barbaric acts of the insurgents.
“Boko Haram is not invincible and I have no doubt that the present administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari possesses the requisite political will and determination to decisively fight the insurgents and restore security to affected areas”, he said.
