Malam Dikko Radda, the governor of Borno State and head of the Northwest Governors’ Forum, is grieving over the tragic attack on worshippers at a mosque in the state.
Governor Radda characterized the incident as “a cruel, senseless, and condemnable assault on innocent citizens engaged in worship and the sanctity of places of prayer.”
The Governor, Ibrahim Kaula Mohammed, the chief press secretary, told Radda on Saturday that the attack had cost precious lives and injured others, putting families and communities in mourning.
Every life lost in this agonizing incident, in his opinion, is a home in mourning and a traumatized community.
He emphasized that all places of worship must remain peaceful, reflective, and devotional spaces and never be the targets of violence.
Governor Radda emphasized the need for sustained national resolve in the fight against terrorism and violent extremism in all forms, noting that violent acts of this nature are painful and unacceptable.
He urged security organizations to “strengthen collaboration, deepen intelligence gathering, and ensure that those responsible are identified and brought to justice,” and to intensify ongoing operations aimed at protecting citizens and preventing further incidents.
