President
Goodluck Jonathan has commiserated with citizens and residents of Kano
State on the loss of lives sustained yesterday when terrorists attacked
the Federal College of
Education, Kano.
The president also extended his sympathies and best wishes for a
speedy recovery to all those who suffered injuries in the dastardly
attack.
Suspected Boko Haram insurgents had on Wednesday thrown improvised explosive
devices into FCE Kano while fleeing from security agents around the Kabuga area of Kano metropolis. The
police confirmed 13 students dead from the explosions while two insurgents were killed in a gun duel.
The president, in a statement by his
Special Adviser
on Media and Publicity, Reuben Abati, commended the officers and men of
the Nigerian Police Force who took prompt action to confront the
attackers and minimize resultant casualties.
The statement reads in part: “He urges them to be even more alert and
proactive in the future to stop terrorist attacks in Kano and other
parts of the country.
“President Jonathan reassures the people of Kano and all Nigerians
that the Federal Government continues to do all within its powers to
further enhance the ability of the Police, Armed Forces and other
security agencies
to prosecute the war against terrorism to a successful conclusion and
provide greater security of lives and property across the country
