President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has strongly condemned the recent terrorist attacks in Maiduguri, describing the incidents as disturbing and expressing sympathy for victims and affected families.

In a statement, the President mourned those who lost their lives and extended his support to the injured, assuring residents of Borno State of the Federal Government’s commitment to restoring peace and stability in the region.

Tinubu characterized the attacks as desperate attempts by terrorist groups seeking to create fear, noting that such actions reflect the increasing pressure being mounted on them by Nigerian security forces across various operations.

He praised the bravery and resilience of the military and civilian task forces for successfully repelling coordinated assaults on key positions, emphasizing that the attackers would ultimately be subdued.

The President also revealed that he had recently approved additional military equipment and operational support to strengthen ongoing counter-terrorism efforts, adding that the process is already underway.

As part of immediate measures, Tinubu directed security chiefs to relocate to Maiduguri to oversee operations firsthand. He also instructed emergency response agencies to ensure proper medical care and assistance for those injured in the attacks.

Reaffirming his administration’s stance, the President declared that terrorists would find no safe haven anywhere in Nigeria, vowing that they would be tracked down and decisively defeated.
