The National Democratic Front (NDF) has cautioned French Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Jerome Pasquier, to quit making utterances capable of undermining Nigeria’s progress against terrorism.
NDF gave this warning at a press conference on Saturday in Abuja in reaction to the French envoy’s recent comments that Nigeria isn’t doing enough in the war against insurgency.
In a statement signed by Secretary-General, Dr. Abdulkadir Bolaji, NDF berated France not overstretch its liberty by consciously inciting Nigerians against the Federal Government.
Dr. Bolaji described Pasquier’s claims as an assault on the sensibilities of Nigerians, especially knowing the role played by European nation in the crisis in the northeast; arming and funding terrorists.
The NDF, therefore, demanded that “the French Ambassador to Nigeria should immediately withdraw the statements and apologize to the Federal Government of Nigeria and the Nigerian people for deriding their dilemma in the hands of terrorists.”
