President Muhammadu Buhari says his administration has given security forces “full freedom” to end attacks in the country.

In a statement on Tuesday by Garba Shehu, presidential spokesperson, Buhari condemned the recent attacks in Sokoto, Plateau and Kaduna, describing the incidents as “barbaric”.

Buhari, who condoled with the family members of the victims, assured the state governments of his administration’s commitment to improving security. “We have given security forces full freedom to deal with, and bring to end this madness,” he said.

“I condemn these barbaric attacks on the country. I wish to assure the states of all possible support from the government of the federation. My thoughts are with the bereaved families. May the injured recover quickly.”
