A Sokoto South Senator, Aminu Tambuwal says going by the history, the US has not been able to effectively achieve much in some of the areas where it has carried out such collaborative efforts.
Tambuwal made this statement on Friday during an interview on Arise Television monitored by DAILY POST.
He was reacting to the recent US airstrikes on the enclaves of terrorists in Sokoto State.
“Well, I will take that with some mixed reaction. If we go by the history of such operations as carried out by the US in some parts of the world. I am very, very concerned. We must be very circumspect.
“And if the history is anything to go by, it has not been able to effectively achieve much in some of areas that they carried out such collaborative efforts.
“However, it is important that we understand that this is not a religious war. This is not an ethnic war. This is about our country and securing our country.
“So help may come from unexpected quotas. What we need to do is to make sure that no hidden agenda is pursued in the pursuit of this fight against terrorism,” he said.
