The European Union (EU) has condemned as
“unacceptable”, yesterday’s killing of people in a Borno village by insurgents.
Catherine Ray, spokesperson for EU High Representative
Federica Mogherini, said: “We express our condolences to the families of those
killed and we call for an immediate release of those abducted, along with the
return of the schoolgirls kidnapped in Chibok eight months ago,” the
spokesperson said.
“The EU stands with the Nigerian people in the fight
against this violent insurgency, and will continue its support for action
against the terrorist threat,” Ray pointed out.
She called on the Nigerian government to ensure a
security response that enables them to bring those responsible to justice, but
also to address the underlying causes of the insurgency.
