Buhari rues accidental bombing of IDP camp

Published by

THE Presidency on Tuesday said President Muhammadu Buhari has received with deep sadness and regret, the accidental bombing of a civilian community in Rann, Borno State, by the Nigerian Air Force, engaged in the final phase of mopping up insurgents in the North-east.

A statement issued by his Special Adviser on media and publicity, Femi Adesina, in Abuja said the President condoled with families of the dead, wished the wounded divine succour, leading to full recovery, and sympathises with the Borno State government.

It said Buhari pledged federal help for the state government in attending to “this regrettable operational mistake,” and pleads for calm, even as he prays God to grant repose to the souls of the dead.
