Former Governor of Lagos State, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu has condemned the Kano Central Mosque Bombings.
Tinubu said Boko Haram seeks to scare and intimidate Christians and Muslims alike. He made this known in a statement on Sunday.
He said “They have become heartless and filled with enmity against all that is good and proper.
“These attacks could only have come from the hands of those who do not know God or serve God. It is the act of godless people.”
”Boko Haram seeks to scare and intimidate Christians and Muslims alike through wanton destruction. They may attack us but never shall this evil force subdue us. Christians and Muslims must stand arm-in-arm to face down this terrorist onslaught.
“Those of us who love peace, unity and Nigeria can never allow this vile group to achieve its objective to turn us into bloodied and divided nation.”
Pope Francis III also described the killings as “extremely serious sin against God.”
The Pope made this remarks at a meeting with Turkish Leaders, he said “As religious leaders, we are obliged to denounce all violations against human dignity and human rights.
“As such, any violence which seeks religious justification warrants the strongest condemnation because the omnipotent is the God of life and peace.”
The United Nations in a statement by its Secretary General Ban Ki-moon also reaffirmed its full support for Nigeria’s efforts to fight terrorism.
