Buhari condoles with Egypt over bomb attack

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has sent condolences to the government and people of Egypt over the heartless attacks on a mosque in North Sinai that left many dead after prayers on Friday.

According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on media and publicity, Garba Shehu, in Abuja on Friday, President Buhari condemned the dastardly act on innocent worshippers, “which further reinforces the position that terrorism has no relationship or respect for any religion, and should be visited with the full wrath of the law.”

The President reiterated that the workable panacea to such mindless and irresponsible attacks on citizens would be a global joint action that continually shares intelligence, simulates scenarios and regular updates on both local and international threats.

President Buhari prayed that the Almighty God will receive the souls of the departed, and comfort the families of those directly affected.
