The PDP also said that former President Goodluck Jonathan had already achieved great success in defeating the sect before Buhari came into office.

“The President cannot solely claim responsibility for the success he claimed the Armed Forces recorded in reclaiming Sambisa Forest from the Boko Haram. This is because the regime of former President Jonathan had done a lot in the war against terror,” PDP spokesman, Dayo Adeyeye told Punch.

“This was why elections were held in almost all the local government areas in Borno State and the entire North-East in 2015. Though there has been no independent verification of the claim, the President ought to give kudos to the regime of Jonathan that bought the weapons being used to fight the war.

“We are all aware that propaganda is a tool being used by this government to deceive Nigerians. We hope this is also not another one,” he added.

The Buhari administration has been celebrating the defeat of Boko Haram since the army took over the sect’s stronghold, Sambisa Forest on Friday, December 23.

In summary, Adeyeye is saying that PDP does not believe the claim that boko haram had been defeated. However, if the claim happens to be true somehow, give PDP and Goodluck Jonathan the credit and not PMB.

I swear, clowns with indomie brains have taken over PDP. Their logic and confusion is out of this world. What do they smoke at that their PDP headquarters?

This PDP and FFK no go kill person oooooo.



PDP is Boko Haram - General Owoye Azazi. He was murdered by dem dem for that statement.

I headed a military that lacked equipment and motivation to fight - Alex Badeh. As if na me and Nairalanders go buy equipment and provide motivation for them.

It's too dangerous to send troops to Sambisa forest else you waste their lives - General minimah



I can go on and on to prove that GEJ and his political Generals were too docile, wicked and corrupt to be able to achieve any meaningful result with Boko Haram.

And the most painful of all of this is the humongous amount they wasted (actually looted through ATM Dasuki). Their Defense budget increased year on year, yet what we got was more bombing of civilian centres, sacking of military bases, taking over of villages by Boko Haram, buying of obsolete weapons (obsolete fighter jets that could not fly or be serviced for more than tripple the price of brand new ones).

See their budget on security for the four years of 2011 to 2015:

2010 - 826.3 billion
2011 - 920.3 billion
2012 - 9244.8 billion
2013 - 923.5 billion
2014 - 920.9 billion
2015 - 934 billion


And 2016 it was N429 billion under a shrewd but tactical PMB.
