In a statement issued yesterday and signed by the National publicity Secretary Bolaji Abdullahi, said “our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and with their friends, families and loved ones. We also condole with the government and people of the affected states.
“It is unfortunate that when people were looking forward to the New Year, they were killed and maimed in such gruesome, barbaric and needless manner. There can be no justification for these evil, wicked and callous attacks.
