Nigerians have renewed calls for the sack of service chiefs
following increasing insecurity in the country.
On Saturday, Boko Haram terrorists beheaded 43 farmers on a
rice field in Borno State.
Buhari, reacting, said the government had supported the
armed forces with all necessary steps to improve security.
However, this did not go down well with Nigerians who called
out Buhari over the high rate of insecurity in the country, especially in the
North.
They called on the President to sack the service chiefs
before the situation worsens.
Here are some comments gathered from Twitter:
@TayepaulOlubayo “ For the umpteenth time, @MBuhari needs to
change all the service chiefs and face the number 1 business he was elected to
do.secure the country!
@Oil_sheikh “ Now this is where I’ll get to talk, if indeed
he has given all support and they refuse to perform, then what is the president
still doing with the service chiefs ? There’s no excuse for failure, sack them
now!
@Blessberrie “ Farmers were beheaded yesterday and nobody
has been sacked yet. Nobody has resigned.”
@Oshoemm “ Stop this trash, I’m buharist to the core, but if
security getting better, he should try to sack the chief”s of Army staff.. It’s
getting bad.”
@Yusuf_A_J “ I do not want to entirely blame Buhari for the
insecurity in north. The #ServiceChiefs have their hands dip in blood. They’re
hiding under the guise that people blame the president for everyone. Even after
give them everyone they fail to deliver, then sack them. That’s PMB’s mistake.”
@Jacob “ Buhari has given all the necessary support to armed
forces to fight Boko Haram EXCEPT firing the armed forces chiefs that are doing
nothing.”
@Collinspaulcp “ Don’t Buhari has the Power to sack the
incompetent service chiefs if they aren’t delivering their duties?They’ve
proved countless times that they can’t keep the country safe. Families are
being massacred daily.
It really hurts.”
@Denbul05 “ And they are soo powerful that they can’t be
replaced, bcos now they failed in their assignments? Let the service chiefs
enjoys while the country is boiling.Shioor.”
@Agadastephenmic “ Mr Garuba, what about the option of
sacking the security chiefs? Why are they still in the system? Insecurity has
skyrocketed beyond measure.Why are the security chiefs still in the system if
they are not benefiting from insecurity? Can we tag them, conflict
entrepreneur.”
@Emmatex1238 “ the president had given all the support to
the armed forces and nothing positive is coming out of it. It means the service
chiefs are not up to the task and should be sacked. Does the president had a
blood convenant with the service chiefs that forbids him from sacking them.

Let's face it! Politics and sectionalism aside, considering what happened in Sokoto, Katsina, Zamfara, Kaduna, Borno, Ekiti, Ondo within the last one week don't we think @MBuhari should resign along with his service chiefs?
