Tinubu 2

Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has stated that the party’s Presidential Campaign Council decided to hold a planned rally in Katsina State despite the killing of vigilante members by terrorists in order to deny the killers a sense of victory.

Last Thursday, more than 100 vigilante group members were killed in a clash with terrorists in Kankara’s Yargoje forest.

Mr Tinubu said he discussed the rally’s cancellation with the state governor, Aminu Masari, on Sunday night, but the governor advised against it.

“Only yesterday, the governor and all of us discussed whether we should continue with the rally today or cancel. He (Me Masari) said if we cancel they (terrorists) they would appear to have achieved their objectives. There is nothing, nothing happened without the wills of Allah. We should take it (killing) as a crime without passion….. We’ll continue to welcome our president home… continue with our rally and ignore the killers because they will pay the price because they have committed heinous crime that’s not prescribed by any faith or believer. Therefore, we continue today by summoning our courage and I salute all of you….,” he said.

Mr Tinubu said he shared the pains of the people of the state.

He said the terrorists would not win against the state because the government would deal with them (terrorists).

“They (terrorists) will not win. The wicked shall perish; we will deal with them. No way that they will go scot-free. No way. Whether they derive some moment of joy or satisfaction, we’re saying we’re bold, we’re courageous. We believe in Allah and we’re better than them.. they’re evil.. we’ll defeat them,” he said.

Earlier at the Katsina Government House, Mr Tínubu pledged a N100 million Naira contribution to the state for onward distribution to victims of terrorist activities in the state.
