The Defence headquarters (DHQ) says there is no cause to worry over the safety of President Muhammadu Buhari in Katsina state.

John Enenche, Coordinator of Defence media operations, said this during an interview on Wednesday morning.

The president was in the state on a private visit to Daura, his hometown, when gunmen attacked and abducted over 300 students of Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, on Friday.

Enenche however maintained that the safety of the number one citizen is guaranteed. He meanwhile dismissed the claim by Boko Haram that it was responsible for the abduction of the students.

According to him, the insurgent group only claimed responsibility for the attack just to instill fear in people.
