President Bola Tinubu condemned the attack that resulted in the deaths of approximately 30 residents in Naridon Village, Kamaru Ward of Kauru Local Government Area, Kaduna State, calling it a barbaric act of terror against innocent citizens. The attack occurred in the early hours of Monday, leading to the loss of lives, including women and children, and the destruction of several houses.
