Senate request Service Chiefs to resign from their positions

The senate on Tuesday asked the service chiefs in the country to resign their positions.

The Red chamber made the resolution after a motion which was sponsored by Ali Ndume, senator representing Borno south and chairman of the committee on army.

All the service chiefs in the country; Gabriel Olonisakin, chief of defence staff; Tukur Buratai, chief of army staff; Sadique Abubakar, chief of air staff; and Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, chief of naval staff; are due for retirement.

There have been several calls on President Muhammadu Buhari from various quarters for their sack but he has been adamant about keeping them.

  1. Since when Nigerians have been dying, are you just waking up from your slumber? Long over due. Just recently, 321 or more tender their resignation and Buratai didn’t look inward to the causes but lives still continuing. May Almighty God be our savior.

  2. Much ado about nothing. Are u asking them to resign because you know that the president that put them in that position can not act. If the senate is not rubber stamped, they should not have made this lame statement. What an active senate supposed do is to pass a vote of no confidence on the performance of the service chiefs because of insecurity in the country, which they failed to tackled. By so doing, they will ultimately mandate the president to sack his service chiefs or face impeachment. These lame duck senate of 9th assembly is the worst in the history of this country just like the Apc led government of Buhari
