“It is time for Joe Biden to resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan."
Recall that the Taliban took control of most of the country as insurgent forces enter the capital city of Kabul, where U.S. troops have been sent to evacuate the embassy.
Trump had initially slammed Biden for his decision to withdraw troop from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, IBTimes added.
The former president his successor should keep as close as possible to his own goal of getting the troops out on May 1.
Trump added he had already made early withdraw possible by pulling much of America's billions of dollars of equipment out.
He said his government had also reduced the country's military presence to less than 2,000 troops from the 16,000 level that was there.
In another report, Shehu Sani, a former senator representing Kaduna Central has raised concerns over the recent killings in Zamfara. The former lawmaker expressed deep regret that not less than 60 residents in the state were murdered by gunmen in just one day.
Sani, comparing the statistics to what is obtainable outside Nigeria, claimed that it is worse than the carnages in Yemen and Afghanistan put together.
His words:
"Sixty people massacred in 13 Zamfara communities in One day. Not even in Yemen or Afghanistan can this scale of carnage happen in recent times. My condolences to the families of the victims."
