ABUJA - Indications emerged yesterday in Abuja, that President Muhammadu Buhari’s forthcoming trip to the United States of America for extensive bilateral, economic and financial discussions with President Barrack Obama and the need to answer certain questions about the terrorism challenges as well as Nigeria’s military capability to tackle the menace conclusively, necessitated the sack of the service chiefs. Badeh, Defence Chief; Minimah, Army Chief; Amosu, Airforce Chief and Jibrin, Naval Chief Very reliable security sources, told Vanguard that the Buhari administration got wind of the fact that
the Obama administration will want to know why after so much money was devoted to the war on insurgency, including foreign contributions, the Boko Haram terrorists were still holding sway. “America will ask President Buhari why the Military Commanders (Sacked Service Chiefs) were still in place, when after several months of being in control and getting huge financial support from the Jonathan administration, Boko Haram is still biting hard. “They will present Buhari with the figures and ask how this huge amount
of money was spent, and for what purposes? Why is the result not showing? This is because America will tell President Buhari pointblank, that we have a package to assist you conquer this menace but it will be on the grounds that you have a new team with thinking faculty, a team that is tested and will spare no effort in ending the Boko Haram mayhem. The source said President Buhari will now be able to look Obama in the face and say, “I have a new team in place. Trusted, with integrity, and primed to actualize my mission of ending Boko haram insurgency”. Continuing the source said, “Buhari will tell the Americans that he has set machinery in motion to investigate how the huge amount of money so far released to fight insurgency was spent and why after such releases to the security agencies, many of the equipment promised, to deal with Boko Haram, are nowhere to be seen. “President Buhari will also show the Americans a blueprint of how he intends to employ new resources improve and equip the armed forces, putting in mind accountability, to ensure that any suspected corrupt tendencies are nipped in the bud”, the source added.

Do buhari have power to sack service chief. Yes and no. Buhari. Can sack service chief inside the federal republic of Nigeria 26 state. Where buhari have international power , but not inside western Nigeria. As a man of my word. let leave that for now.

There are expected to be 8 service chief. 4 representing westernn Nigeria and 4 representing Nigeria. I am expected to pick 4 service chief. And buhari pick 4. This is the correct procedure. My I'd card stolen.

As emperor of western Nigeria. I was the one who pick Sarah alade as expected by international law. Even while Sarah alade did not know I pick her. She never contact me once to say thank you. She does not know. I pick her. I just found her profile online. Purely base on merit

The shame one gets as a 'citizen' of this country. Take a second look at that write-up and witness how the so called president of Nigeria is bein made to look like a misbehaving school boy about to receive his purnishment from his school head. . And this is why I think the media houses should be reoriented. . The degrade this country the way the write. No sense of national worth

These are all lies only a fool will be thinking like this. Is Obama ruling Nigeria or Buhari ? Why not wait for d questions to be asked first? Very soon he will deny saying this. Buhari is only afraid of being removed through a coup once he travelled out to USA. Nigerians are not all gullible t,hat is d reason for quick removal of service chiefs. Say something else, bec no one expect you to keep them before. It has been a normal routine of every new president to change service chiefs,therefore don't tell us lies. We are not interested in why we already know.
