The King of Saudi Arabia, Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has reacted to
the recent killing of hundreds of Shia Muslims in Zaria describing it
as a fight against terrorism.
In a telephone conversation with President Mohammadu Buhari, King
Salman expressed his support to the Nigerian government in fighting
terrorism.
He expressed the outright support of Saudi Arabia for Nigeria in its
ongoing fight against terrorism and emphasized that Saudi Arabia stands
in solidarity with the African country following a series of recent
terrorist attacks.
King Salman also emphasized that criminal acts such as terrorism are
denounced by Islam and asserted his kingdom will refuse to become
involved in any kind of foreign intervention aimed at destabilizing the
security and stability of Nigeria.
In turn, President Buhari expressed his thanks to King Salman for the
affirmation of his country’s support for Nigeria and said he hopes to
visit the kingdom soon.
