Brussels Terror Attack: President Buhari Calls For Greater International Cooperation

Today’s appalling terrorist attack on Brussels reinforces the need for greater international cooperation to effectively confront and destroy global terrorism and its perpetrators, President Muhammadu Buhari’s spokesman said in a statement. 

The Nigeria leader joined leaders across Europe and the rest of the world in condemning the atrocious attacks on the Zaventem Airport and Maalbeek Metro Station in Brussels, and expressed his commiseration with Prime Minister Charles Michel and the Belgian people over the loss of over 30 lives in the attacks.

“The President assures Prime Minister Michel and the people of Belgium that having suffered the horror and anguish of incessant terrorist attacks over several years, Nigeria stands in full solidarity with them on this day of national pain and trauma,” the statement continued.

President Buhari assured the global community that under his leadership, Nigeria will continue to work with other countries of the world to ensure that terrorism never triumphs over free, peaceful and law-abiding nations and people of the world.

He wished the over 100 persons injured in the attacks a speedy recovery.
