The
Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) has advised its presidential
candidate and former Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari, to reject his
nomination by the Boko Haram sect as a mediator in negotiations with the
Federal Government.
The
National Chairman of the party, Prince Tony Momoh, gave the advice
yesterday in Abuja. “We in the CPC do not see where Buhari comes in; we
are concerned by the way the name of Gen. Buhari is being dragged into
this affair.
“Another thing is that
nobody reached out to Gen. Buhari to say they have been nominated or is
being nominated along with others, to mediate or be witnesses to
discussion between Boko Haram and the Federal Government,” he said.
Momoh said that Buhari had not told anybody or the party that he was
interested in the nomination.
The national chairman maintained that the CPC would not associate with issues that involved criminality.
