The presidency Nigerian woman castigated the allegations of the President of the National Council for Safeguarding (CNSP) to the Nigerthe General Abdourahmane Tianiand described them as baseless propaganda, intended to create chaos and incite the people of northern Nigeria to rebel against the President Tinubu Ball.
This reaction was made in a short video published on Friday December 27, 2024 on the social network Daniel BwalaPresident Tinubu’s communications officer.
In his statement, Bwala made it clear that “the choice of language used by the military leader of Niger is quite revealing of his intentions, probably in cahoots with politicians in Nigeria, you never know, but the idea is to create chaos and hostility in northern Nigeria against the President.”
On this counter accusation, he explained that “These are lies, and he chose a local Northern language because he wants to turn the North against the President. I don’t think any politician in Nigeria who has an absolute interest in the national interest and security of Nigeria will take part in this kind of negative rhetoric.”
While claiming that the allegations of General Tiani are a distraction from the challenges facing his regime, Bwala says he believes that “The honeymoon is over; he was unable to cope with the economic situation in his country. Everything is turning against him, and in a desperate fit, he has decided to resort to cheap lies and propaganda against Nigeria.”
By recalling the position of Nigeria in the region and in Africa, President Tinubu’s communications officer recalled that “Over the years, Nigeria has maintained its leadership in the West African sub-region… We have been of considerable assistance to our countries neighbors” and then urged Nigerians to ignore General Tiani’s claims, calling them false and divisive.
Neither English military base, nor French military base
In the series of reactions to Nigeria In this matter, the National Security Advisor (NSA), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, stressed in an interview with the BBC that Nigeria will not be used as a tool to destabilize the Niger.
Ribadu, after clarifying that Nigeria’s relations with France are strictly economic and have no military implications. stated that France has military agreements with its former colonies, but Nigeria was never part of such agreements, therefore claiming that France is using Nigerian territory to launch an attack on the Niger is both implausible and unfounded.
As a reminder to edify each other on the position of the Nigeria in Africa, Ribadu revealed about the United Kingdom which colonized Nigeria that “The United Kingdom requested to have a base in Nigeria but its request was categorically rejected. If Nigeria could not give the United Kingdom such an opportunity in our country despite being our colonizer, why give the same to France? “.
Let us recall that at the origin of these reactions, the leader of the CNS P at Niger made a statement last Wednesday in Hausa language and alleged that France is negotiating with terrorists in Nigeria to destabilize its country.
