Finally, President Muhammadu Buhari has sacked the service chiefs.
He has since replaced them with new ones.
Femi Adesina, the media aide to the president announced the sack of the military chiefs via his twitter handle.
Adesina stated, that “PMB appoints new Service Chiefs. Maj Gen LEO Irabor, CDS, Maj Gen I Attahiru, Army,
Rear Adm AZ Gambo, Navy,
AVM IO Alao, Air Force.
“He congratulates outgoing Service Chiefs on efforts to bring enduring peace to the country.
The sack of the security chiefs is coming rather too late as many Nigerians in the last two years have been calling for their sack following the worsen security sitiation in the country.
Besides, the security chiefs time were up as they were due for retirement but had their stay extended on two occasions by the president.
