The ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) has appealed to the recently kidnapped and released schoolboys of the Government Science Secondary School, Kankara in Katsina State, to forgive the party for the trauma there experienced during their time in captivity.
The party promised the students that the government would intensify efforts to ensure that their learning environment is safe and secure to avert future invasion by armed men.
The party disclosed this in a statement signed by the Chairman, Caretaker Committee of the APC, Mai Mala Buni, in Abuja on Sunday.
Buni in the statement titled, ‘APC Welcomes Release, Commends Security Agents and Demands For Pre-Emptive Measures against Reoccurrence,’ said the party received with “joy and a glad heart” the release and return of the students who were abducted by terrorists from their school.
The statement partly read, “The party also apologised to the pupils and vow that President Buhari and the party will do all it takes to make sure that they continue to study in a safe environment.
“We want to congratulate the parents of the children and also apologise on behalf of our party that one of our biggest promises was security and although we are doing our utmost best, such incidence is a sad event and must, at all cost not repeat itself.
“As a party, we called on Nigerians not to loose their hope in our government and the security apparatus.
“We thank all those who made this rescue effort possible, especially the Governors of Katsina and Zamfara States, the security agents across the country.
“We do not doubt the capacity of our security agencies, we believe and know they are capable especially when they are well motivated and led, which we can assure is the case under President Muhammadu Buhari.”
