Youths groups including the Emerging Leaders Forum of Nigeria , Youth Assembly of Nigeria and Nigerian Students Parliament have denounced the call for the Service Chiefs as a political gambit.
Addressing reporters in Abuja, Godstime Chukwubuikem Samuel, National speaker of YAN and Mubarak Aliyu Rimi, National speaker of NSP, who spoke on behalf of the groups, described the call as “ the highest form of politicisation and stultification of security in Nigeria.” “We the members of the Emerging Leaders Forum of Nigeria , Youth Assembly of Nigeria and Nigerian Students Parliament deem it necessary to call for this press conference as part of our Patriotic duty to salvage our country from unnecessary political tension, interference and politicisation of security.
“Despite the recent setbacks in the war on Boko Haram terrorism, it is pertinent there are obvious achievements recorded under the current military leadership. The service chiefs have done a lot to stabilize our democracy and security which are needed for the development of Nigeria. They work selflessly to degrade Boko Haram insurgents in the face of obvious constraints of modern equipment and finance”, they posited.
