President BOLA TINUBU has condemned the killing of military personnel in Delta State, saying the perpetrators, whom he described as cowardly must be brought to book.

 TINUBU in a message he released yesterdayevening in reaction to the incident said the killing is unprovoked and dreadful, joining all well-meaning Nigerians and the men and women of the armed forces to mourn and express his profound grief over the needless death of the gallant soldiers.

 He said the Defense Headquarters and Chief of Defense Staff have been granted full authority to bring to justice anybody found to have been responsible for the horrifying crime against the Nigerian people.
