President Goodluck Jonathan has condemned in strong terms the terrorist attack on Nairobi, describing the loss of lives as shocking. In a statement, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, said: “Jonathan and Nigeria join the rest of the world in condemning the atrocious, callous and abominable attack on defenceless Kenyans and foreign nationals at the Westgate Shopping Mall in the Kenyan capital”.
Jonathan assured President Uhuru Kenyatta and the people of Kenya of Nigeria’s sympathy and full solidarity as they grapple with the consequences of the attack and strive to end the terrorist siege.
President Jonathan further assured them that in keeping with the spirit of recent agreements for enhanced bilateral cooperation between Nigeria and Kenya, the Federal Government would give all possible support and assistance to Kenya in its efforts to contain the scourge of terrorism and avoid a recurrence of yesterday’s heinous attack on Nairobi.
He prayed that God Almighty would comfort all those who lost loved ones in the attack and grant the injured speedy recovery.
