‘We’ll Help In All Ways We Can’, Buhari Assures Chadian Transitional Leader

Buhari made this known on Friday when he hosted Mahamat Déby, president of Chad’s transitional military council, at the presidential villa, Abuja.

Déby emerged as the president after his father was killed by rebel forces in April.

Speaking during the meeting, Buhari expressed that Chad should not hesitate to approach Nigeria for help in areas deemed necessary.

“We are bound together by culture and geography, and we will help in all ways we can,” Buhari said in a statement signed by Femi Adesina, special adviser to the president on media and publicity.

“Nigerians know and appreciate the role Chad played in helping us to combat terrorism, and we will continue the collaboration.

“Late Marshal Itno was a personal friend, and a friend of Nigeria, and Chad has been very steadfast in defending Nigeria, so the country should not hesitate to ask for help in areas it deemed necessary.

“We will also help you to ensure a smooth transition in 18 months, as you have promised your people.”
