The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has condemned the murder of Hauwa Leman by the terrorists group, Boko Haram.
Leman is one of the aids workers kidnapped by the terrorists group when it attacked an Internally Displaced Persons, IDP, camp in Rann, Borno State.
In a statement by the Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation, Atiku said the murder of Leman and her colleague was inhuman.
“This inhuman act is a crime against humanity and Atiku Abubakar wishes to assure first the parents of Hauwa Leman and Saifura Khorsa, and all Nigerians, that he will do everything within his powers to ensure that justice is served to those who committed this heinous act,” the statement reads in part.

He said while nothing could bring her back, the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organisation would continue to work with “our partners in Nigeria and the international community to ensure that those who are still in the captivity of the terrorists and their allies are rescued alive.”
While praying to Almighty God to grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss, he prayed for God to be with the security forces and grant them every advantage over the country’s enemies.
“Finally, we call on all Nigerians to continue to support the gallant men and women of our armed forces, as they take the battle to the terrorists and their sponsors. Nigeria will prevail because the victory of good over evil is a settled issue. May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” the statement reads further.
