Pres. Jonathan commiserates with Govt & people of Yobe on killing of students by suicide bomber

Find the State House press release below...
President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan extends heartfelt commiserations to the Government and people of Yobe state on the death of many students in a bomb attack on Potiskum earlier today.

President Jonathan also conveys his deepest sympathies to all parents who lost their beloved children in the heinous attack on the Government Science Secondary School which appears to have been carried out by a suicide bomber.

The President condemns the dastardly murder of the students on their school’s assembly ground as they prepared to begin another week of study in pursuit of a better life for themselves and their families.

He assures the grieving parents and people of Yobe state that no matter how long it takes, the Federal Government will ensure that all those responsible for the senseless murder of so many promising youngsters and the continuing acts of terrorism across the country are brought to justice and made to pay for their atrocious crimes.

The President similarly assures all Nigerians that in spite of seeming setbacks, his Administration remains fully committed to winning the war against insurgency and terrorism.

Nigeria, President Jonathan affirms, will ultimately overcome the current security challenges imposed by domestic terrorists and their foreign allies, with the dedication of its Armed Forces and national security agencies, as well as the continued support and cooperation of all patriotic citizens.

Reuben Abati

Special Adviser to the President

I think its high time I shed some light on what we are facing in Nigeria and what is around the corner! We all need to wake up..its happening so fast and if we are not careful, we might not pass christianity to our children come the next 30-40yrs. "Islamicing" this country is planned already! Things are not just happening coincidentally friends! Boko haram is following the Nigerian constitution..you'd ask how! In the Nigerian constitution these were mentioned-sharia(73times),Islam(28times),grand cardi(54times),and muslim(10times)! There's is no single mention of Christianity,christ or the church! So ask yourself,is this country a Christian state,muslim state or secular state. I'm sure we all know what "Sharia" means if you don't ask someone! The muslims are following SECTION 38 paragraph one in the Nigerian constitution that says: there's freedom of choice for all citizens including any kind of religion but immediately you have "sharia",so Boko haram is working according to what the constitution says in disguise! The Nigerian constitution is the first problem this country has because there are two captains in a boat(DUAL IDEALOGY).The reason this country hasn't been captured/taken by islam is because they are yet to capture the "jewel" to enforce it and that's the southwest but there's a "handshake" already, but I pray they would fail as they try. Please let's wakeup and start praying if not *.....* this country would become an Islamic state! Believe it or not. Go to google and read about the history of Turkey. Turkey practiced christianity for 1000plus years mind you Apostle paul is a Turkish, The seven churches in revelation were in Turkey so Turkey has a Solid christian foundation but today Turkey is 96% islam, 0.21% christianity! Nigeria is just 173years old(practicing christianity)IF Turkey could be taken by Islam,how much more Nigeria! The same mistake Turkey made is what we are making in Nigeria now(I Don't care attitude)as we all pursuing selfish goals(to make money) Hardly would a day pass without a news on "Boko Haram Take over". Go online(wikipedia.org and type this "ABUJA DECLARATION 1989" :you would understand more about the "set down agenda" Let me stop here..would cont some other time. We need disciples now not money hunters. WAKE UP CHURCH(you are failing) and OPEN YOUR EYES NIGERIA. It is well. Isaiah 1:6-9, Exo 3:17, 2tim 2:1-9

Let me quote dis for you Mr Abati "Government will ensure that all those responsible for the senseless murder of so many promising youngsters and the continuing acts of terrorism across the country are brought to justice and made to pay for their atrocious crimes". I can confirm that you and your Mr President are insane. How is BH going to be brought to justice? Is it by begging them for ceasefire or by paying them like you're paying the Niger Delta Militants? We are sick and tired of your lies, Nigerians are angry and we won't stop cursing you and your entire generation for putting us in this much pain.

Linda the victims are all Muslims,why not the headline be boko haram attack Muslim students as you do when Christian villages were attacked

Gej, it is good to commiserate and do all the talk talk, for God's sake more action is needed. Now the boko haram are coming out to possess cities and are not stopped so where lies the fate of Nigerians.

micheal said...

his own is to condemn, nothing more.R.I.P to the late students

drS said...

I think the presidency should not release statements concerning these bombings because it is becoming highly irritating. Deal with the cause and shut up already!!! All talk, no action. If your children were involved you would sing a different tune. Your relatives get kidnapped and you put your leprous hands into our money to pay for ransom yet you cannot use that same money to get rid of these bastards forever. God would judge you all for these innocent lives lost!

Y'll are saying Nigerian are tired of GEJ's empty promises...Y'll should register first and vote him out at all cost...Spread the word.Tell your friends and family...!!!

Mr president it's very simple just that u are still scared of kicking some ass .declare a full blown war in all the boko haram infested states.give the military a shot at sight order both ewu n' okuko.

Anonymous said...

It's actually possible that GEJ is behind this boko haram thing! I seriously don't think northern leaders are behind this (Killing their own people to indirectly fight GEJ) the shakau guy might not even know he's working for GEJ! GEJ probably has a front man!!!

WHY is GEJ doing it? I really can't say right now but there must be some political logic to it.

Weeping as I type this grievous comments. Linda, if you don't post this my comment what befell these innocent children will happen to your own too...

I heard the news of this gruesome and wicked murder of young, able and promising futures this evening and my heart grieved.

What did these innocent kids do to deserve this? These are defenseless children enjoying themselves with their early morning routine in school and behold the unexpected befell them

I cannot imagine what their parents who dropped some of them off in school this morning and told them be a good boy and girl, some even were hugged by their parents and waved bye bye to them with the expectation that they will see again in the afternoon. Parents with only a kid who died in the incident what agony will they be passing through now? What about those that waited many years before they could give birth how will they be feeling now....(crying)

And we say we have a president? A president that is so insensitive to the pains and plight his people are going through. A wicked president that is so clueless and brainless who only feeds on the destruction of his citizens.

Its my prayer that this evil will befall him and his family....And some evil agents like him will then say people should vote for this man again, may them too perish....

#Nigeria a country where innocent blood are shed everyday.

Goodluck this, Goodluck that. Is he meant to carry an AK47 ??? Some people think being the president of a country is like a classroom prefect, or Student Union president. Some people are condeming his speech. If he didn't make any speech yesterday, some will still be complaining. They promised to make this administration ungovernable for him and all we do is blame him. This insurgents have been there since but because power left the North, they are trying to frustrate anyone coming in. Asides the security challenges Nigeria is facing, GEJ is goodluck to Nigerians. Buhari was quoted as saying " Godwilling by 2015 something will happen, if what happened in 2011 should happen in 2015 by the grace of Allah, the dog and baboon will all be soaked in blood " . On the 5th of october, 2010 Lawal Kaita said " anything short of a northern president is tantamount to stealing our presidency, even if he uses the incumbency power he will be frustrated out " . Even if GEJ is taken out and another non northerner takes over I doubt if there will still be peace. GEJ isn't happy with the killings in Yobe , borno and other parts of the north, he is just as confused as any normal being can get. Its time the Northern elders tell Nigerians the truth. If the civilian JTF can give BH a tough time, how much more the army and police ? The airforce shld also be fully involved in this fight. Let the governors of the north tell us what they've been doing with allocations made for securtiy. The governor is the first security chief of a state and has a better role to play than the president who might not be familiar with the state. In one of shekaus videos, he made a statement : " its me shekau, that young boy of yesterday " all we are facing didn't start today, they were only waiting for the right time. Governors in the north shld beef up security in parks, schools and public places. Students shld be searched before entrying school compounds, and every form of public gathering should be discouraged (including school assembly). If they cannot protect lifes and properties as governors with a small land mass they are familiar with, will they be able to provide security for Nigeria as a whole ??? Tomorrow, those same governors will contest for senate or presidency. Wake up Nigerians. When Yaradua was president and GEJ was VP, and the niger delta militants were disturbing, didn't Goodluck go to the creeks on several occassions to broker peace ??? If he is slow or undecisive as people think, will he have risked his life ? What's the agenda of Namadi Sambo ? It appears he (GEJ) is the only one we as Nigerians see. If GEJ wins in 2015, a lot will happen and mysteries will be uncovered. I pray for our brothers in the north. let them find peace, peace that surpasses understanding. Let the peace that the north once enjoyed be restored to them. Mykel

The presidency is crazy. What will commiseration do in this issue? Is that the solution? He is only interested in ruling and re-election. If there is no permanent solution to the insurgency, it will eventually affect the whole of Nigeria. If you like publish, if don't like, don't publish. I have said the truth. Thanks.
