He assured all of possible support from his regime to the states.
“We have given security forces full freedom to deal with, and bring this madness to an end. I condemn these barbaric attacks on the country. I assure the states of all possible support from the government of the federation,” said Mr Buhari. “My thoughts are with the bereaved families. May the injured recover quickly.’’
