President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned, in strong terms the attack on the Nigerian Defence Academy located in Kaduna State by some armed bandits.
The New Diplomat had reported that some armed men who disguised in military camouflage, in the early hours of Tuesday, invaded the country’s foremost military institution, the NDA in Afaka, Kaduna, killing two officers and abducting one.
Reacting, Buhari in a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina has assured Nigerians that the attack won’t dampen the morale of troops, but would rather boost their morale to end banditry, terrorism and other bad elements disturbing the peace of the country.
The president also commiserated with the families who lost their loved ones, praying to God to comfort them. He also assured that the deceased would not die in vain.
”The attack launched on the facility of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) on Tuesday, rather than throw a dampener into the morale of our Armed Forces as it is intended to, will buoy their determination to make a decisive end of criminality in the country,” the statement read.
