Presidency alleges regionaI fọ́rces are pIotting against Nigeria, aiming to destabiIize President Tinubu’s government
The Presidency has alleged that sub-regional forces are collaborating against Nigeria in the school abduction incidents.
On Sunday, the Presidency said that the recent kidnappings happening all over the country are part of a plan by certain regional groups to try and bring down President Bola Tinubu’s government.
During an appearance on the TVC’s Politics show hosted on Sunday, Ajuri Ngelale, the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, mentioned the accusation.
“I will say this: Across the north, we understand that some of the sub-regional geopolitical forces that are currently at play are actively conspiring against the stability of Nigeria,”
Ngelale said that the government is handling the situation well and has got help from the US to bring back the school children and deal with the local groups involved.
“We understand that and we are not sleeping. We are responding to it and we’re doing it in a concerted way, with our neighbors.
“And it is worth noting that the United States government has also pledged its assistance to ensure that there is a full return of all of the schoolchildren who were kidnapped recently in Kaduna.
“But the point is we are going to continue to intensify our collaboration not just within the region, but internationally to make sure that some of the regional actors that are conspiring against our nation are brought to justice and ultimately silenced in the future,”
