The Nigerian leader, who called for an international investigation, said those behind the death and injury of scores of migrants must be made to face justice.
President Buhari noted that the unfortunate attack is a wake-up call to the warring factions in Libya and the international community to quickly restore peace and stability in the beleaguered country.
