In a decisive move aimed at addressing the escalating insecurity in Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu relieved the service chiefs he inherited from the Buhari
administration of their appointments and replaced them with new ones. It is perceived as a move to re-engineer the nation’s security architecture aimed at refocusing the battle against insecurity and easing the daunting challenges the country is facing in that regard.
The appointment of the new service chiefs marks, in our opinion, a significant turning point. Learning the lessons of the past, it is necessary to ensure that these new leaders possess the requisite coordination ability, vision, and commitment to protect the lives and property of the citizens. Sadly, in our view, Nigeria has witnessed a surge in security challenges in recent times, ranging from terrorism, insurgency, banditry, kidnapping, and communal clashes.
