“I sympathize with you, not because you are young, but because of the position taken by some groups abroad such as Libya, even though this is a problem you inherited from your father,” Buhari said.
Other groups that think they are strong should cooperate to save their country.”
President Buhari thanked the president of the military government of Chad for his visit and assured him that “as your neighbor I am always ready to listen to your requests for advice, on politics and security and other aspects”.
On his part, the Chadian military leader thanked President Buhari for the support he is giving him and his country as the country prepares to return to the path of democracy, which he said is progressing as it should.
