The Chadian President, Idris Deby, who earlier
this year was quoted as saying he knew the
whereabouts of wanted Boko Haram leader,
Abubakar Shekau, has backtracked on his claim
while also insisting on keeping any possible
knowledge of the location of the terrorist to
himself.
“I cannot tell you today that I know where
Shekau is hiding and even if I knew I won’t tell
you,” Mr. Deby told journalists on Monday at the
Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Mr. Deby spoke after a meeting with Nigeria’s
President Goodluck Jonathan.
The Chadian President stated that the war against
Boko Haram had not yet been totally won
because Chad and Nigeria were not working
together on the field.
He said it was regrettable that the “two armies
that is the Nigerian army and the Chadian Army
are working separately in the field”.
“They are not undertaking joint operation,” he
said. “If they were operating joint operation
probably they would have achieved more
results.”
Mr. Deby had, sometime in March, accused
Nigeria of downplaying the threat from Boko
Haram and failing to cooperate with the regional
coalition battling the jihadists, saying there had
been zero contact between their armies.
Chad, Cameroon and Niger were believed to have
also joined forces since January to battle Boko
Haram, whose insurgency has claimed more than
13,000 lives in northern Nigeria since 2009.
The Chadian President at the time said he was
baffled by the Nigerian government’s lack of
cooperation with the offensive.
“Two months after the start of this war, we have
not had any direct contact with the Nigerian
army units on the ground,” he had told the
French weekly.
In his response to journalists at the State House
Abuja, the Chadian President said it was
important for him to come to discuss with the
Nigerian President as he leaves office to review
“what we did together, what we achieved
together in the fight against Boko Haram”.
He further stated that it is true that Boko Haram
has not been completely eradicated.
“But they have been tremendously weakened,” he
said. “I did not want to wait and come during the
inauguration of the new government. I thought I
should come to consult with Mr. President, to
congratulate him and to have this exchange and
have overview of what we have been able to
achieve in the fight against Boko Haram”.
Chad, one of Nigeria’s closest neighbours has
been involved in the fight against Boko Haram as
it is also being affected by the insurgency.
Responding to questions on the multinational
task force fighting in Lake Chad, he explained,
“In the Lake Chad Basin, there are four countries
Cameroon, Nigeria, Chad and Niger that are
currently securing the area. The four countries
have managed to form a multinational mixed
force that will metamorphose to what is probably
known as a Rapid Response Force that the
African Union is trying to form for Africa.”
On the 2015 general elections, Mr. Deby
congratulated Mr. Jonathan for the show of
statesmanship demonstrated during the elections.
“We all know that elections in Africa is always
contested but Mr. President demonstrated a lot of
statesmanship, that he is a real democrat by
conceding and congratulating the President-
elect,” he said.
“You all know that when Nigeria sneezes, the
neighbouring countries catch cold. If Mr.
President had not taken that laudable initiative
you all know what would have happened now.
Nigeria is still living in peace, you all are living
in peace and that would not have happened but
for that laudable initiative he took.
“So I came to congratulate him for leaving a
legacy not only for Nigeria but for Africa as a
whole”.

Yeah Yeah... THAT'S BECAUSE THERE ARE MOLES IN THE NIGERIAN ARMY. Some army officers of Northern extraction are sympathetic to Boko haram, So they will leak the information to shekau.

This message is deep..

He is probably tryin to say if he knows the whereabout of shekau and tells Nigeria, they (Nigerian army) would aid him in escaping just as he alleged they did some months back..

I have always known the Nigerian Army under GEJ's regime is a SCAM.. Better called GEJ's/PDP's Army

PDP IS BOKOHARAM

OK

All he said didnt make much difference,since we ve always known that the war against Boko Haram has some internal forces sustaining it.....however,the most important statement of fact he made,is that GeJ is a complete gentleman and a stateman to the core,who loves Nigeria and Africa so much and that APC would have shed a lot of innocent blood as usual,had it been they lost the elections.

Idris deby knows a lot about BH, he can take it to his bedroom for all I care but the day of reckoning is coming.
