Borno suicide bombings: Fight against terrorism must be rigid —ACF

Date:

From: Femi Oyelola, , Kaduna

The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has expressed sadness over the coordinated suicide bomb attacks on the Gwoza community of Borno State, calling for a total and uncompromising fight against terrorism and banditry.
So far, over 30 persons have been reported killed from the attacks which occurred on Saturday.
ACF in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Professor Tukur Muhammad-Baba, said the incident was very unfortunate.
The forum said although no persons or groups has claimed responsibility for the cowardly attacks, but the well-known terror strategies of Boko Haram insurgents are said to be behind the attack.
ACF observed that the attacks were specifically targeted, for maximum impact, at a wedding party, a funeral, and a hospital.
The body condoled the families of those who lost their lives in the dastardly attacks. It also commiserated with all victims, the Gwoza community, Borno, and federal governments over the tragedy.
