Tinubu Condemns Kaduna Massacre, Orders Security Agencies to Hunt Killers
President Bola Tinubu has strongly condemned the killing of scores of residents in Naridon Village, Kamaru Ward of Kauru Local Government Area of Kaduna State, describing the attack as a barbaric assault on innocent Nigerians. He directed security agencies to launch an immediate crackdown on those responsible.
The President ordered the Armed Forces, the Nigeria Police Force and intelligence agencies to intensify operations across the affected communities, track down the perpetrators and restore peace to the area.
Tinubu assured residents that the Federal Government would not allow those behind the attack to escape justice, stressing that every available security resource would be deployed to bring the attackers to book.
He also expressed sympathy to the families of those who lost their loved ones, as well as the Kaduna State Government and the entire community affected by the tragedy.
The President urged security agencies to sustain pressure on criminal groups operating in the area and strengthen efforts to prevent further attacks on vulnerable communities.
The latest directive followed a deadly attack on Naridon Village, where at least 30 people were reportedly killed and several houses were set ablaze by suspected terrorists, forcing many residents to flee.
Tinubu reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to tackling insecurity across the country, insisting that protecting lives and property remains one of the government’s highest priorities.
