Governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, yesterday, commiserated with the government and people of Borno State, over the attack on the convoy of Governor, Babagana Zulum, which led to the death of security personnel and other innocent citizens.
They urged the Federal Government to provide additional support for security agencies working to end the Boko Haram insurgency.
This was contained in a statement titled “Attack on Governor Zulum’s Convoy: PGF Commiserate with the People and Government of Borno State,” which was signed by the Chairman of the PGF, Abubakar Bagudu.
The governors expressed their condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in the unfortunate attack on governor Zulum’s convoy on Saturday, September 26, 2020 along Maiduguri/Baga Road of Borno State.
The statement read in part “As Progressive Governors, we are saddened by this dastardly attack, which has resulted in the unfortunate death of precious lives of security personnel and innocent citizens.
“We join our brother, Governor Zulum, our leaders in Borno State and all Nigerians to pray for the repose of the souls of all those who lost their lives. In this painful period, Nigerians should be strengthened by the determination of Governor Zulum to expedite the peacebuilding process in Borno State and indeed the whole of North-East.
“All Nigerians should rise in support of the laudable initiatives of Borno State Government to return citizens in the State back to normal life. We must rise in support of the people and government of Borno State to end all activities of Boko Haram insurgents, which promote trade and tax administration that funds their heinous activities.”
