Buhari condemns execution of aid workers

President Muhammadu Buhari has
condemned the alleged execution of four aid workers by terrorists in
North-eastern Nigeria.

He said that the defeat of evil by good is inevitable, no matter
the pyrrhic victory evildoers seem to win.

The President disclosed this in a statement by Mr Femi Adeshina, Special
Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, in Abuja on Saturday.

He expressed sadness over the
development and commiserated with the family and loved ones of the aid workers.

The aid workers had been abducted near
Damasak, Borno State in July and had been held by the insurgents in spite of
efforts to secure their release.

“Evil will always be defeated by good at
the end of the day. Whatever seeming victory evil records, eventually rebounds
on the evildoer.

“We are resolved to beat evil in this
land, and we remain unrelenting till we achieve it,” the President said.

He urged all insurgents to lay down
their arms and rejoin decent humanity. (NAN) BitVolut
