The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation has said that it is amazing that a man that refused to participate in a debate in his own country is so ready to go to a foreign country to sell his message in a desperate attempt to curry favour with the people of that country.
PDP Presidential Campaigns Organisation said that the decision of the next president is for Nigerians to decide, not in London.
Referring to the appearance of General Muhammadu Buhari at the British Chatham House, the PDP Presidential Camapign spokesman, Femi Fani Kayode said in a statement, "We wonder whether General Buhari told his foreign audience whilst he was in London how much he loves Boko Haram.
"We wonder whether he told them that he once said that he believes that ‘an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the north’ and that the Boko Haram terrorists should be appeased, pampered, resettled and paid allowances.
"We wonder if he told them that he was once nominated by Boko Haram to be their spokesman and representative during proposed negotiations with the Federal Government.
"We wonder if he told them that he was the one that ordered and organised the violent injecting, crating and disgraceful kidnapping of a former Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by the name of Alhaji Umaru Dikko from the streets of London 31 years ago when he was in power.
"We shall state our views about General Buhari's stage-managed show of shame at Chatham House at a later date; and, at that time, we shall go into far more detail.
"For now, all we can say is that it is truly pitiful that a former Head of State of the Federal Republic of Nigeria believes that it is more important to win the hearts and minds of the British than it is to win the hearts and minds of the Nigerian people.", ThisDay Live has reported.
