YOBE KILLINGS: OUR NATION IS THE TARGET OF ATTACKS, NOT THE VICTIMS SAYS TINUBU Former Lagos State Governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Bola Tinubu, Tuesday, raised the alarm that Nigeria was under attack, following the killing of about 40 students in Yobe State by members of the Boko Haram sect, calling for the arrest of the perpetrators. “The recent carnage in Borno State and now at the College of Agriculture in Yobe State reminds us of the sinister nature of the enemy our nation now faces. There should be no mistake at this somber moment. Those who launched these attacks did not launch them at the people they killed. They knew not the names of their victims or who they were. “The dead were just unfortunate souls who happened to be close enough to murder. The real targets of these massacres are our nation, society and any semblance of civilised, modern life. Nigeria is under attack and the earlier those in charge realise this, the quicker the situation can be arrested. In terms of security, the present is not safe, neither is the future secured,” Tinubu lamented.
