The Federal Government has vowed to apprehend and punish those responsible for the recent killing of worshippers in Malumfashi Local Government Area of Katsina State.
FG recently described the attack as “callous and barbaric,” and Nigerians have been reacting.
Speaking via a press statement, the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, revealed that security operatives are currently trailing the perpetrators.
According to him, Nigerians can rest assured that the criminals involved will be caught and made to pay for their cruel actions.
“Security forces are already on the trail of the criminals, and no stone will be left unturned until they are apprehended and held accountable for their actions.
The Government assures Nigerians that justice will be swift and decisive, and that such acts of terror will never be allowed to take root in the country,” it read.
He further noted that the attack was not just a crime against the people of Malumfashi but also an assault on our shared humanity and values as Nigerians.
Idris concluded by reiterating FG’s commitment to combating terrorism across the country.
“Their grief is our grief, and the Government stands with them at this dark hour. May the Almighty grant the departed eternal rest and console the bereaved with the fortitude to bear this painful loss,” he added.
