Baba-Ahmed insisted that Jonathan’s handling of insecurity during his tenure was weak.
Former Political Adviser to President Bola Tinubu, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed has claimed that former President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, Patience never believed Chibok girls were abducted.
Baba-Ahmed made the claim on Thursday.
Recall that on the night of April 14, 2014, Boko Haram kidnapped 276 schoolgirls from the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State.
While some of the girls have been rescued, others are still unaccounted for.
Speaking in an interview on TVC, the former presidential aide dismissed insinuations that the kidnap story was planted to blackmail Jonathan.
He also insisted that Nigeria is yet to get leaders who will tackle insecurity headlong.
Baba-Ahmed insisted that Jonathan’s handling of insecurity during his tenure was weak.
According to Baba-Ahmed, Boko Haram became full blown during his tenure.
He said: “I think we haven’t had leaders who will take on security headlong, Jonathan served for six years and his handling of the security situation was very weak.
“It was under him that we had a full blown Boko Haram all the way to 2005.
“Chibok wasn’t black of Jonathan, it was real, he and his wife didn’t believe it.
“As we speak, Chibok girls are still missing and nobody can say where they are, let’s not make light of this.
“Some of the girls were taken from their families and nobody knows where they are, there was no blackmail.
“Boko Haram kidnapped girls from Chibok town waiting for exams, so let’s not kid with this.”
