He urged the people not to be intimidated by the act of these agents of darkness.
Aliyu gave the assurance that the state government, in collaboration with security agents, would ensure that those responsible for the act were apprehended and punished according to the laws of the land.
He condoled with the families of the deceased, praying that God would give them the fortitude to bear the loss, while granting the deceased eternal rest.
He also pledged to pay for the treatment of the injured.
