You Can't Fight Boko Haram Yet You Want to Go to War in Niger - Kwesi Pratt Stings Nigeria Prez Tinubu
The Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr has jabbed the President of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu over Military plans in Niger.
After the coup in Niger, West African leaders directed the deployment of a 'standby force' to restore democracy.
However, there are concerns that military operations in Niger may escalate into a broader conflict. Russia has warned that military intervention in Niger would lead to a "protracted confrontation".
Kwesi Pratt adding his voice to the debate, questioned why the Nigeria President who is the head of ECOWAS wants to send forces to Niger to fight when he can't defeat Boko Haram in his country.
"If you know how to fight, try defeating Boko Haram. You can't even fight Boko Haram, you want to go to war in Niger and fight," he said on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.
