Governor of Kaduna state Nasir El Rufai visited injured victims of the Sabongari bomb
blast incident who are receiving treatment at the Ahmadu
Bello University Teaching Hospital. He has released a
statement regarding the blast. See the statement signed by his media aide after the cut...
The statement below...
The city of Zaria today suffered a terrible act of infamy. Terrorists
detonated explosives that killed and injured several persons at the
secretariat f the Sabon-Gari local government council. The casualty
count as at 12 noon is 25 fatalities, including a two-year old child.
Thirty-two injured persons are being treated at the Ahmadu Bello
University Teaching Hospital, Zaria and other hospitals in the city.
The blast went off as the residents welcomed the new chairman of the
interim management committee of the local government to his office at
the secretariat. Some local government staff from Lere and Ikara were
also undergoing biometric verification at the venue.
The Kaduna State Government has expressed its sadness at this
mindless attack on our citizens. It has condoled with the victims and is
coordinating the treatment of the survivors.
Speaking at the scene of the blast, the governor Malam Nasir El-Rufai
sympathised with the direct victims and the residents of Zaria. He
prayed Allah to grant the souls of the deceased victims peaceful repose.
He condemned the attack as an inhuman act of terror, and he urged the
people of Kaduna State as a whole to be vigilant, even as they preserve
the peace. The governor said residents of the state should promptly
report all suspicious persons and activities to the security agencies
and community leaders.
The governor further announced the deployment of extra security
forces across the state. Malam El-Rufai urged the people of the state to
shun large gatherings but, where that is impossible, to exercise and
practise maximum vigilance and vigorous checks on persons, vehicles and
luggage. The state government will announce further steps to strengthen
our security and safety in the next few days, and call on our people to
cooperate fully with law enforcement agencies in these trying times.
