The opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) in the North, yesterday warned Nigerians to beware of the ceasefire deal entered into by the federal government with the Boko Haram group, saying that it could be a deception to achieve cheap political points by the government.
In a communiqué issued at the end of its stakeholders meeting in Kaduna which was read by the APC Deputy National Chairman (North), Senator Lawal Shuaibu, the party stated it was committed to the wellbeing of all Nigerians.
The Communiqué reads in part, "The meeting notes the reports that the federal government and Boko Haram are engaged in discussion that may result in cessation of hostilities. While it welcomes any effort to resolve the conflict, it advises against attempts to deceive Nigerians and create a false sense of security for political ends.
"Work closely and diligently with all members of the party across the country to ensure the ousting of the corrupt, disastrous and clueless Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government in the 2015 General elections."
