The Presidency on Sunday alleged that the recent cases of kidnapping across the country are efforts by subregional geopolitical forces in the North conspiring to undermine the government of President Bola Tinubu.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, said this when he spoke on TVC’s Politics on Sunday.
President Tinubu is a southerner from Lagos State. Recall also that there was the massive kidnapping of the Chibok School girls during the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan, another southern president.
Meanwhile, Ngelale disclosed that the Federal Government is already receiving support from the United States for the release of students kidnapped in Kaduna.
“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,” the President’s spokesman said.
His comments comes few days after terrorist kidnapped over 280 pupils and teachers of Government Secondary School and LEA primary school in Kuriga, Kaduna state.
Recall also that a day earlier, the United Nations had confirmed that over 200 persons were abducted from the internally displaced persons camp in Ngala Local Government Area of Borno State.
According to the UN resident and humanitarian coordinator in Nigeria, Mohamed Fall, the abductees, including women, boys and girls, were captured while fetching firewood.
