Insecurity: Northern Elders Want Service Chiefs Sacked by WorriorPlus: 6:37am On Oct 19, 2020 |
A group of northern elders under the aegis of Coalition of Northern Elders for Peace and Development (CNEEPD) has expressed dissatisfaction with the prevailing insecurity situation in the country, insisting that the best way possible for President Muhammadu Buhari is to restore order with an immediate restructuring beginning with the sack of service chiefs. Besides, the group is demanding an independent forensic investigation into the expenditure of the Armed Forces from December 2015. The Northern elders, who also said that insecurity and hunger are reasons behind the continuous protests by #EndSARS campaigners, kicked against killings, intimidation and harassment of protesters by men of the Nigeria Police. They called on the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, to urgently arrest the erring police officers and hoodlums responsible for the attacks. These were highlights of a communique the organisation released to the media on Saturday after its expanded meeting held in Abuja. In the communique signed by Zana Goni, representing the North East; Dr Mohammed Suleman for North West and Professor Ofa Afolabi for North Central, the Elders said they were worried “over the plight of Internally Displaced Persons and the communities in the North-East while calling on the government and international donors to as matters of urgency, do more in addressing the medical, food and sanitation needs of the people affected by insecurity in the region.” The 12-point communique reads in part: “After exhaustive and painstaking deliberation by the entire executives and members of Coalition of Northern Elders or Peace and Development, in Abuja, Nigeria the forum unanimously resolved as follows: “That the forum passed a vote of confidence in President Muhammadu Buhari and the 19 Northern governors. “That we note with deep concern the momentum at which the end SARS and insecurity protest is gathering by the day across the nation and wish to state categorically that it is due to frustration occasioned by the president’s deliberate refusal to restructure the security apparatus of the nation despite daily calls by Nigerians including the National Assembly to do so. “That insecurity has links with all the problems Nigerians are facing today. “That we strongly condemn the killings, harassments, and attacks of protesting Nigerians by some overzealous members of Nigeria police and some sponsored hugs in Abuja, Kano, Plateau and Bauchi states. “That we are deeply worried over the plight of IDPs and the communities in the North East and call on government and international donors to as a matter of urgency, do more in addressing the medical, food and sanitation needs of the people affected by insecurity in the region. “That we call on Mr President to immediately sack the current service chiefs and restructure the entire security architecture of Nigeria. “That we further call on Mr President to take immediate advantage of the ongoing protests and restructure the country’s security architecture. “Finally, the forum call Nigerians from all works of life to continue to speak out against the insecurity and urgent need of its restructuring until Mr President acts.” https://tribuneonlineng.com/insecurity-northern-elders-want-service-chiefs-sacked/

So sad it took these northern leaders this long to know that they have been in a one chance bus.Bubu is not ready for that because he does not care even if Kastina burn down to ashes he will never change service chiefs for fear of being ousted. |

You claimed the President has failed in his responsibility to protect the citizens by retaining the incompetent service chiefs yet you passed vote of confidence on the president. Based on what?? You're not serious yet. |
