today along Ali Akilu Road, Kawo – Kaduna about 2:30pm on my way to Daura.
The unfortunate event, clearly an assassination attempt,
came from a fast moving vehicle that made many attempts to overtake my security
car but was blocked by my escort vehicle. We reached the market area of Kawo
where he took advantage of our slowing down and attempted to ram my car and
instantly denoted the bomb which destroyed all the three cars in our convoy.

Unfortunately, when I came out of my vehicle I saw many dead
bodies littered around. They were innocent people going about their daily
business who became victims of mass murder.

Thank God for His mercy, I came out unhurt but with three of
my security staff sustaining minor injuries – they have been treated in
hospital and discharged.
