Explain Why You Refuse To Sack Service Chiefs – PANDEF To Buhari

The Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) has urged the National Assembly to ask President Muhammadu Buhari to explain why he has refused to sack the service chiefs in spite of the increasing levels of insecurity in the country.

AllNews gathered that Ken Robinson, PANDEF Spokesperson who made this call on Tuesday said the interaction should be devoid of political sentiments that would defeat the essence of the meeting.

“The primary issue is the insecurity in the country; that is a major challenge, which is also related to the economic issues in the country. Nigerians are getting frightened by insecurity because they think their lives are no longer safe in the country. Nigeria is currently being classified as the third most terrorized country in the world.

“So, we expect that the National Assembly will be firm and courageous to ask specifically why the President has refused to sack the service chiefs in spite of very obvious non-performance and the worsening level of insecurity in the country.

“The federal lawmakers should bold and without fear of any kind to ask him what his programme is to fight killings, kidnapping, and armed robbery and ensure insecurity is arrested without any further delay.

“The President should also be asked steps that have been taken to restructure Nigeria. The interaction with Mr. President should be devoid of political or party sentiment."
