Zabarmari Massacre: Gov Tambuwal Expresses Grief, liaises with Borno Gov over Sokoto Victims
… We’ll Work With Borno Government On Our Citizens That Were Victims
Inna lillahi wa Inna ilaihi rajiun!!!
It is with deep shock and displeasure that the government and good people of Sokoto state receive the sad and upsetting news of Boko Haram attack on scores of rice farmers in a village near Maiduguri today.
We are deeply concerned and worried that an unspecified number of our enterprising citizens, who had traveled hundreds of kilometers to seek their means of livelihood in the areas where the attacks took place, were also affected.
This act, at once abominable, disgusting and inhuman, is very disturbing.

As we condoled the government and good people of Borno, with who we have consistently shared our sympathy and solidarity in weathering this horrendous trend of insecurity, we also commiserate with the families of the victims from our state.
God willing we will collaborate with the government of Borno to ascertain the number of our citizens affected with a view to identifying them. In the same vein we will support the families of the victims.
I pray to Allah to grant all of the victims eternal rest and their families the fortitude to bear this heart wrenching loss.
I also pray for God’s intercession in bringing this spate of insecurity in the country at large to an end.
