"The group and few other people who have embarked on campaign of calumny should please stop pointing accusations at the chief of Defence, we therefore calling the good people of Kaduna and Nigeria in general to avoid bringing up the issue of religious, ethnicity and sentiment"

Alhaji Balarabe therefore urged Federal government and international communities to assist members of the community, especially victims’ families to cushion the effect of the bomb attack.
