The National Democratic Front (NDF) believes the Peoples Democratic Party has once again exposed the height of its hypocrisy and dangerous ignorance by comparing President Muhammadu Buhari to Chadian President, Idriss Deby.
The PDP had insinuated that President Buhari should be physically present at the war front like his Chadian counterpart recently did.
In a statement signed by Secretary General, Dr. Abdulkadir Bolaji, on Wednesday, the NDF mocked the PDP for being benighted with the Constitution despite almost two decades at the helms of affairs.
As a democrat, the NDF revealed that President Buhari appointed competent military chiefs that degraded Boko Haram, reduced to conducting cross border attacks from the territory of the same Chad and its francophone neighbours – Niger and Cameroon.
Instead of drooling over the Chadian President, the NDF advised the PDP to visit Deby and find out why his country took so long to address the presence and activities of Boko Haram in its territory.
The group expressed shock that the opposition party ignored France’s influence on Chad and Nigeria’s other francophone neighbours, which has made it impossible for these countries to support terrorism.
NDF, however, urged the PDP to “ wake up to the realty and see President Deby’s one-off stunt in leading Chadian troops against Boko Haram as a case of a relationship turned sour, a mere case of things gone wrong between two thieves or equally ferocious terrorist factions.”
