Insecurity: Senate Summons Defence Minister, Service Chiefs, Others

The Nigerian Senate has summoned the Service Chiefs, Minister of Defence, the heads of the Nigerian Police Force, as well as the Department of State Service (DSS) following the constant insecurity issues lingering in the country.

AllNews gathered that the decision followed a motion moved by Senator Bello Mandiya from Katsina State on the abduction of about 330 students of a secondary school in the state by unknown bandits.

Also, the senate members urged President Muhammadu Buhari to implement the report of the Senate Committee on Security challenges without further delay.

Members of the upper chamber in their various contributions to the motion, specifically, passed a vote of no confidence in the various heads of security agencies in the country over their inability to prevent the abduction of the innocent children.

They also expressed deep frustration that Buhari had consistently ignored all resolutions passed by the Senate on the issue of insecurity in the country.
