Chad’s Stability Is In Nigeria’s Interest, Says President Buhari

The stability of the Chad Republic, and, indeed, all our neighboring countries, is in our interest, President Muhammadu Buhari has said.

The president spoke Friday at State House, Abuja, while receiving a Special Envoy from the Transitional President of Chad, Mahamat Idris Derby.

Chad holds a Sovereign National Dialogue on 20 August and according to the Special Envoy, Brah Dallah, “the outcome would be respected, and not tampered with.”

President Buhari said relations between Nigeria and Chad transcended that of neighbors, as the late President, Idris Derby, “kept me constantly briefed on developments in the country.”

Speaking further on the virtues of good neighborliness, the president said “common sense makes it extremely important that we are interested in the stability of Chad Republic, as it is in our interest.
