President Bola Tinubu has been urged to restrain himself from using force in Niger Republic against the military junta led by Gen. Abdourahmane Tchiani
In an exclusive interview with DAILY POST on Sunday morning, Justice Osai Ahiakwo said the threat by Tinubu to apply military force to restore normalcy is unwarranted and will compound the socioeconomic burdens of the country.
Ahiakwo reminded President Tinubu of the terrible hardship and lives of Nigerians both soldiers and civilians that will go, insisting that the country does not stand to gain anything from invading Niger. “I am sure that good reasoning shall prevail as those including President Tinubu, calling for Nigeria to lead the war against the coupists in Niger Republic are yet to come to terms with the reality that this action might lead to world war.
