Razaq Bamidele

A former Governor of Zamfara State, Sen. Ahmad Sani Rufai (Yarima Bakura), has called for eternal vigilance as he condemned in its totality, the attack on St.  Francis Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State last Sunday.

In a statement signed by his media aide, Olumide Lawal, the former federal lawmaker expressed shock and bewilderment just as he described the attack as senseless, unwarranted and unprovoked massacre by agents of darkness, saying he was highly disturbed and piqued by the senseless killing of innocent citizens who came purposely to worship God, but met their untimely death in such a tragic circumstance, that sent jitters to the spines of their fellow Nigerians.

He, therefore, called on all and sundry to be on their guards all round the clock and pull resources together to ensure effective intelligence gathering to nip in the bud, the barbaric activities of people with dark souls and evil practices, before they could put them into practice.

Sen. Yarima therefore enjoined all security apparatus to be out in place to ensure that the perpetrators of the heinous crime at Owo are speedily arrested and brought to justice.

Concluding, Sen. Yarima who was the first executive governor of Zamfara State condoles with the Catholic parish, the people of Owo, the families that lost their beloved ones in the dastardly act and fast and complete recovery for those receiving medical attention in various hospitals, occasioned by various degrees of injury sustained during the massacre.

Sen. Yarima also prayed for peace to reign in the country.
