“Attack on the church was uncalled for, and must be condemned by any well meaning Nigerian.
“At this point it seems the security agencies should change their operational tactics in order to get proper situation reports so as be able in control of this type of situation were lives of harmless citizens are being cut short by faceless gunmen.
“We at New Nigeria People Party, NNPP, sympathize with the family of those who lost their lives in the unfortunate incident as we urge the present ruling government to be in firm control of the security situation which is fast failing as a result of lack of direction.
“Indeed it is regrettable to the point that Nigeria can no longer carry out the basic constitutional duty of protecting lives and property.
He advised Nigerians at this point to be watchful about strange persons within their neighborhood
