Chief Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, said President Tinubu has vowed that those responsible for this senseless and heinous bloodletting will face consequences.

Also, Tinubu has directed the prompt rescue of pupils and their teachers abducted in the Eporo area of the state.

As the government’s primary duty is to protect the people and their property, President Tinubu reassured Nigerians that the country’s security framework is being firmly strengthened in order to achieve better and anticipated results.
