Senate President David Mark yesterday pleaded with the Boko Haram sect to sheath their swords in the interest of peace and unity of the country.
Mark urged the Boko Haram sect which claimed responsibily for the bombings to embrace peace in the interest of the corporate existence of Nigeria.
He said the spate of bombings and violence in parts of the country is a direct affront and a declaration of war against the citizens of Nigeria.
?These spate of bombings and killing of innocent and harmless country men and women cannot be a way of life. This is not part of our culture or way of life. Leaders at all levels and across the divide must rise to this unwarranted affront against the people.
?Every leader worth his or her name must join the vanguard to preach the gospel of peace, love and reconciliation. God did not make mistake to keep us together as a people with common mission and destiny.
?Whatever the anger or misgivings, neither our laws nor the Holy books allow unlawful taking of another man?s life. This is absurd and totally intolerable,? Mark said.
The Senate President sympathized with families of the victims of the bomb blasts, saying that government would ensure that they did not die in vain.
While urging the security operatives to redouble their efforts, to contain the situation, he promised that the National Assembly will collaborate with the government to ensure security of lives and property across the country.
