Jonathan Denies Linking Buhari to Boko Haram, Calls Reports Misleading

Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan has refuted claims linking President Buhari to Boko Haram, calling recent reports misleading. Jonathan clarified that he never implicated Buhari in his recent speech on Boko Haram activities in Nigeria.

He stated that certain media reports suggesting Buhari was nominated to represent the dialogue with the federal government and was complicit in the crisis are false and misinterpreted. Jonathan emphasized that his comments were taken out of context and that he did not accuse the late former president of any involvement with the insurgent group.

The clarification comes after his comments attracted backlash and confusion.
