Jonathan Deplores Tuesday Attack On Bama

President Goodluck Jonathan has deplored yesterday’s attack by armed terrorists on Bama, Borno State which claimed scores of lives.Reports said 55 people were killed in the attacks.
President Jonathan believes that the continuation of such callous and wanton attacks of innocent Nigerians, government facilities and security formations flies in the face of ongoing efforts to establish a workable framework for dialogue and the peaceful resolution of security challenges in Northern Nigeria,Reuben Abati ,his spokesman said in a statement
“The President warns that the Federal Government’s consideration of dialogue as an option for the elimination of some current threats to security should not be seen as a weakening of its resolve and determination to use all the forces at its disposal to crush all brazen affronts to the powers and sovereignty of the Nigerian nation”Abati said.
Jonathan extended his sincere condolences to the families and colleagues of the soldiers, policemen and prison officials who lost their lives in the dastardly attack.
