Kajuru Attack: FG Vows To Arrest, Punish Killers Of Briton

The Federal Government has condoled with the families of the two persons, a Nigerian and a Briton, who were killed in Friday’s attack on the Kajuru Castle Resort, a popular resort in Kaduna State, promising that the killers will be apprehended and brought to justice.
In a statement issued in Abuja yesterday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, also said that the security agencies are doing everything possible to ensure that the three persons who were kidnapped in the attack are released unharmed.
The minister said the dastardly attack that led to the death of Ms Faye Mooney, a British aid worker, and Mr Matthew Oguche, a Nigerian, while visiting the popular resort, was a setback to efforts to promote tourism in the country.
“We commiserate with the families and friends of Ms Mooney and Mr Oguche, and wish to assure that the security agencies will leave no stone unturned in their efforts to apprehend the killers and bring them to justice,” he said.
Mohammed said the Federal Government had recently stepped up efforts to stem the wave of violence and banditry in some parts of the country, through better intelligence gathering and increased collaboration by the security agencies.
He said the efforts were already paying off, saying the level of violent attacks, banditry, and kidnappings “are being reduced nationwide.”
