Your Decision to Personal Fight Boko Haram is Suicide if elected - Sambo tells Buhari

After reading this, I thought, wait a minute, did  Sambo has just inferred that soldiers fighting Boko Haram were sent out to their suicide?
 
Vice-President Namadi Sambo on Thursday advised the APC presidential candidate, retired Maj.- Gen.Muhammadu Buhari, against committing suicide by planning to personally lead the war against Boko Haram terrorists, if elected president.


 
Sambo gave the advice at the PDP Presidential Rally in Yola, Adamawae. The vice president said his advice was against Buhari intention to personally lead the war against Boko Haram if elected President in next month’s presidential election. Sambo urged Buhari to ignore the advice from the APC vice presidential candidate, adding that any attempt by Buhari to lead such war would amount to a “suicide mission” in view of his age.
 
“I want to seize this opportunity to draw our attention to a publication, last week, credited to the vice-presidential candidate of the APC that their plan his to ask their presidential candidate, retired Maj-Gen. Buhari, to lead the war against Boko Haram.

“I want to ask you a question, a retired 73-year-old General – can he run? No! “Okay, let’s assume that he can run; how many metres can he run before he falls? The training of a General that retired in 1985 is it the same training that can address a modern war? No!
 
“Now we are fighting war with drones, with new ideas that our President, a PhD holder, a scientist that is using (his knowledge) to address the security issues of this country. He described the paln as a suicidal proposal, asking “will he (Buhari) go with a suicidal proposal?”
 
The vice-president urged the electorate to support President Goodluck Jonathan, saying Jonathan was the answer to the nation’s security and the answer to its development.
