Some senators have called on President Muhammadu Buhari to sack the service chiefs and appoint new ones.
They made the call as the lawmakers deliberated on a motion on national security challenges and the need to restructure the nation’s security architecture.
The lawmakers set aside the whole of today, Wednesday to discuss the issue. This, they said, is due to the increasing rate of insecurity across the country.
Similarly, Members of Nigeria’s House of Representatives asked the country’s service chiefs to resign over persistent insecurity.
The lawmakers in their different contributions to the debate on insecurity across Nigeria lamented the uncertainty of security of lives and properties in the country.
Chairman of House of Representatives committee on defense Jimi Benson bemoaned how long it’s taking for the Nigerian Army, Nigeria Police and other agencies to vanquish the insurgents.
