Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has stated that the Federal Government led by President Muhammadu Buhari must be committed to the safety of Nigerians.
Atiku was reacting to an attack on a Kaduna-Abuja train by gunmen suspected of being terrorists.
He condemned the incident, which left several passengers wounded and others kidnapped.
In a series of tweets, Atiku wrote: “The attack on Abuja to Kaduna-bound train that reportedly left many injured and some kidnapped is condemnable.
“The government’s commitment to the protection of the life and property of the people must remain sacrosanct.
“My thoughts and prayers are with all who are affected. As One People, there is no enemy, foreign or domestic, that we cannot defeat.”
Bandits had bombed a rail line between Katari and Rijani train station, along the Kaduna-Abuja route on Monday night.
During the operation, the attackers also shot at passengers, leaving some dead.
