I don't miss being president - Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the killing of a pregnant woman, Harira by members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Harira who was nine month pregnant was gruesomely murdered along with her four daughters, Fatima 9, Aisha 7, Hadiza 5 and Zaituna 2 were all gunned down by IPOB terrorists on Monday.

Reacting to the killings, President Buhari said, “I strongly condemn the wild, barbarous and wanton killings of innocent people in the South-East, as well as in other parts of Nigeria,” his tweet read.

“The perpetrators of these deeply distressing attacks should expect the toughest possible response from the security forces,” he added.

The Presidency also wishes to caution against any knee-jerk reactions, the creation of panic, disruption of lives and livelihoods, or even retaliatory violence following the viral videos of the alleged killings of non-indigenes by the Eastern Security Network (ESN) and its mother terrorist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

While expert agencies are now verifying the factuality and veracity of the claims that accompany the horrid pictures being circulated, we call on all citizens to avoid hasty steps or conclusions that could exacerbate the situation, and on the contrary keep to a line of conduct that will help the law to take its proper course.
