‘This is Not Sambisa Forest’--- Tinubu’s supporters to military

 

                  Supporters of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC),Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,are not amused by the recent deployment of soldiers close to his Bourdillon Road,Ikoyi residence.

                 For four days this week,the armed soldiers laid siege to the area in what the APC called part of the plan by the Presidency to intimidate leaders of the party in the run-up to the rescheduled elections.

Although the General Officer Commanding (GOC) 81 Division,Major General Tunmi Dibi, said  the military deployment was ‘routine’ and part of a joint 

measure to secure Lagos,Tinubu’s supporters responded in a unique way yesterday with a message for whom it may concern.

They hung two  giant banners across Tinubu’s fence  with the inscription: “Wrong Posting. This is not Sambisa Forest.”

Sambisa Forest in Borno State is believed to be the hideout  of Boko Haram fighters  where over 200 schoolgirls abducted from Chibok last year by the sect were first taken to.

Several of the group’s  training camps are also  located therein.
