President Muhammadu Buhari has given reasons why he has not changed the security service chiefs. Buhari in an interview on Arise TV, Monday night, said that “the head (c-in-c) has to be very careful on removal of the service chiefs because you don’t know the ambition of the ones coming up.”
Adeshida “My understanding of security is that, when you have a case of emergency, you have to be careful, with tampering with the head of services. This is again one of my personal experiences.
I have been a governor, I have been a minister, I have been a head of state, I came back, I tried to come back to this office three times but lucky on the fourth time,” Buhari said. “I am measuring the options critically, when you have a case of emergency, if you don’t wait for an appropriate time to do it, then you create competition within the service.
There are so many ambitious people waiting, only one man can be chief of army staff in the army, only one man can be the inspector-general of police. Don’t forget that it was this administration that appointed all the three.”
