“We want to reassure the citizens of Gombe State that the government remains resolute in its efforts to uphold the safety and security of its people.

“We will continue to take comprehensive measures and apply the superiority of our force to clear and flush our criminals in any part of the state, as well as bring those responsible for this heinous crime to justice to prevent such incidents from recurring.

“The memory of Sheikh Ibrahim Albani Kuri will serve as a reminder that we must remain vigilant and steadfast in our pursuit of a society where everyone can live in peace and without fear.

“The entire state mourns the loss of this scholar and preacher whose teachings and guidance have touched the lives of countless Muslims,” the governor stated.
