The Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) has condoled the people and government of Zamfara State over the road explosion that killed about six persons.

The forum, which described the incident as unfortunate said it was a cowardly attempt to inflict collateral harm on Nigerians. 

In a statement on Thursday, personally signed by the chairman of the forum and governor of Kwara State, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, the NGF said it “Wholeheartedly throw our weight behind the efforts of the Nigerian military to rout these violent, criminal elements from our land”.

It called for improved vigilance and prompt report of suspicious activities as the security agencies “Finish off these elements”.
