Insecurity: Senate explains why Buhari has not sacked security chief yet
Against the position of Nigeria’s lawmakers to sack all the Service Chiefs over insecurity, Spokesman, of the Senate, Goddiya Akwasiki has explained that President Muhammadu Buhari was yet to fire them due to the sensitive nature of the issue.
He said that when the Senate President came from overseas, he did say that the security architecture should be changed. “When Dr Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan addressed you on security issues, he spoke like a leader, but we agreed that we should set a day to discuss security issues.” Security issues are not discussed in market squares and when we meet the IG behind closed doors, he aligned with community policing.
