President Muhammadu Buhari promised on Saturday that mass killings of innocent Nigerians, abductions and other criminal atrocities would soon become history in the country.
The president made the pledge in his Easter message to the nation.
He said his administration is determined to achieve peace and security across the nation by ending the avoidable conflicts and crises that hindered national progress.
The president explained that already, the nation’s security apparatus were being reformed and empowered to win the war against terrorism and other criminal activities across the country.
President Buhari stressed that the unfortunate incidents in recent years involving the wanton shedding of the blood of men, women and children in frequent orgies of criminal, political, ethnic and religious violence had become embarrassing and unacceptable.
