The Presidency has advised the opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to defame the former service chiefs.
This comes after the opposition party registered their displeasure about the nomination of the former heads of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and the Military Intelligence to the Senate for confirmation as non-career ambassadors.
Reacting to the PDP’s stance in a recent statement, the special media aide to the president, Mr. Femi Adesina said;
“How on earth can decent people run down hardworking professionals who have put in their best to defend their country? How can you run down your country and equate that with normal political dialogue and opposition?
What is baffling about this false and baseless assertion is that this is coming, not from Boko Haram terrorists who the military kept largely in check and confined to a known section of the country, Sambisa, but from a so-called leading opposition party that fraudulently kept power for 16 years and is nursing the hope of one day returning to office as an elected government.
What is more, under these corrupt politicians the insurgency conquered large swathes of territory-18 Local Government Areas.
Pray, if a political party, in a blind search for power can spurn the interest of the nation, embrace the language of hate campaign against the country’s military as enunciated by the terrorists, as the PDP does, what will be left for the Boko Haram to do? PDP is doing Boko Haram’s work!”
