But he assured that he will do anything, everything, to get his killers arrested so as to face the full weight of the law. “I will deploy every resource”, the President promised.
The shocked President was reacting to the gruesome murder of Gulak in the morning of Sunday, May 30, by gunmen on his way to the Sam Mbakwe Airport to board a flight back to Abuja.
In a statement on his behalf by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, entitled: President Buhari expressed outrage sadness Gulak’s murder, President Buhari expressed his outrage and disgust at what he called:”The heinous murder of the Adamawa State-born politician, in Owerri, Imo State by yet-to-be identified gunmen.”
Said the statement, quoting Mr President: “I am repulsed by such premeditated and gruesome murder of Gulak by evil people who are determined to undermine the peace, unity and integrity of our country.
“Let me warn that nobody or group of people who engages in such despicable acts should expect to go free.
“We will deploy all resources at our disposal to ensure that such callous and criminal elements are brought to book.”
In another development, the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, described the murder of Gulak as a deliberate act meant to cause a serious problem between the North and the South-east.
