President Muhammadu Buhari has come out to blast Boko Haram attack on UN helicopter in Borno State.
He recently revealed that the attack was dastardly and cowardly and the lives of the deceased will definitely attract severe consequences.
According to him, Boko Haram terrorists are clearly on the back foot, which is why they are increasing attacks on innocent civilians, including UN humanitarian workers.
He added that they are currently desperate to prove that they are strong in order to cover up their dwindling fortunes.
His words, “This latest cowardly attack on the UN humanitarian helicopter is yet another desperate rear guard action by the Boko Haram terrorists who have been under intense pressure from the Nigerian military.
“Let me reassure the international community and Nigerians that this latest cowardly attack on a UN helicopter which claimed the lives of two people, including a five-year-old baby, would not go without severe consequences.
“Boko Haram terrorists are clearly on the back foot and their increasing attacks on innocent civilians, including UN humanitarian workers, was part of their desperation to prove that they are strong in order to cover up their dwindling fortunes.”
