The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has urged Nigerians to put soldiers combating Boko Haram in their Christmas prayers.
The Waziri of Adamawa made the call in a tweet on his verified Twitter handle on Sunday.
Atiku also showed an example by calling the widow of Lt.Col. Ibrahim Sakaba, who was killed by Boko Haram earlier in the year.
He said, “This Christmas, I urge all Nigerians to spare a thought for our military on the frontlines on the war on terror. I had cause to telephone Lt. Col. Ibrahim Sakaba’s widow this Yuletide. I am touched by her devotion & love for her husband who paid the supreme sacrifice for Nigeria.”
