Fire For Fire: APC Demands Jonathan’s Resignation; Accuses President Of Allowing Boko Haram To Fester
The All Progressives Congress, APC, has said President Goodluck Jonathan
bears a huge moral responsibility that will haunt him for a long time
to come for deliberately allowing the Boko Haram insurgency to fester,
leading to the deaths of over 15,000 Nigerians and the displacement of
over 3 million others in the past six years.
In a statement issued in London on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the party also hailed the military for the successes it has recorded in the battle against Boko Haram in recent times, saying the string of victories confirms the party’s stand that the Nigerian military can hold its own anywhere and anytime, if provided with the necessary equipment and if the morale of the troops is not undermined.
It said by his own admission that he and his team “underrated the capacity of Boko Haram”, President Goodluck Jonathan has finally owned up to his globally-acknowledged incompetence, a development which, in truly democratic societies, should be part of a statement of resignation by a leader whose terrible error of judgement has caused so many deaths and inflicted so much pain and sorrow on his compatriots.
