Boko Haram: Jonathan has accepted his incompetence – APC

The Opposition All Progressives Congress, APC, has again accused President Goodluck Jonathan of allowing the Boko Haram insurgency to fester, causing the deaths of over 15,000 Nigerians and displacing of over three million others in the past six years.

According to the party, this has put a huge moral burden on the President that would haunt him for a long time to come. This was disclosed in a statement in London by the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Lai Muhammed on Tuesday.

The party, in the statement, also commended the military for the successes it had recorded in the battle against Boko Haram in recent times, adding that the string of victories confirmed APC’s stand that the Nigerian military could hold its own anywhere and anytime, if provided with the necessary equipment and if the morale of the troops was not undermined.

The APC said President Jonathan had finally admitted his globally acknowledged incompetence by accepting that he and his team underrated the capacity of Boko Haram. This, the party said, should have formed part of the resignation statement of a leader in a truly democratic society, insisting that the president’s “terrible error of judgment” had led to so many deaths and inflicting so much pain and sorrow on Nigerians.
