Some groups have been found at the centre of a fresh plot to blackmail and undermine President Muhammadu Buhari and the Armed Forces of Nigeria across the north.
According to the Northern Patriots (NP), in disguise of fighting for the security of the region, they secretly sponsor banditry.
Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday in Abuja through Secretary-General, Samuel Daloba, the group revealed that the aim is to instigate a tribal war which would ultimately lead to a coup to oust President Buhari.
The Northern Patriots said it came to this conclusion after critically observing the recent activities of bandits in the northwest.
Recall that they have launched countless scathing attacks on President Buhari and the nations Armed Forces, with many observers alleging a sponsored and political undertone.
While acknowledging security challenges confronting the region, the Northern Patriots noted that it is driven principally to steal and plunder.
The Northern Patriots, however, implored Nigerians not take heed to “lugubrious media assertions that are peddling false news about insecurity updates from the north”.
The group further admitted that the president has so far proffered solution to the security situation.
