moment for Adamawa State.
“My thoughts and prayers are with the
victims, their families, and all those who have suffered losses. I stand in
complete solidarity with the people of Gombi,” he said.
Abbati reaffirmed his commitment to
advocating for peace, security, and the protection of lives and property across
the state.
He also commended the Governor Ahmadu Umaru
Fintiri for the prompt visit to the affected community to assess the situation
and reassure residents of the government’s commitment to their safety.
According to Abbati, the governor’s visit
demonstrates leadership and empathy at a critical time.
He called on residents to remain united,
vigilant, and supportive of one another in the face of the challenges.
Abbati further prayed for the repose of the
souls of the deceased, speedy recovery for the injured, and strength for the
bereaved families.
The attack has heightened concerns over
security in parts of Adamawa, with renewed calls for strengthened measures to
safeguard lives and restore peace in affected communities.
