President Muhammadu Buhari is facing growing pressure to sack his security chiefs over indiscriminate killings across the country.
A group, Good Governance Initiative (GGI), yesterday, took its view even a notch further by asking the president to resign. “What is happening now will be a child’s play, if the APC returns to power in 2019,” GGI president, Nnosike Nwosu, warned.
Senator Dino Melaye (Kogi West) also backed calls for sacking. In a statement in Lokoja, yesterday, he accused the officers of incompetence and complicity in the killing of innocent Nigerians, adding that it was high time the “insecurity chiefs” became alive to their duties or were relieved of their posts.
The Centre for Human Rights and Social Justice (CHRSJ) has also declared its resolve to take Buhari to the International Criminal Court at The Hague over insecurity in the country.
In a communiqué, following its meeting in Ikeja, Lagos, at the weekend, the group stated: “We have also resolved to drag the heads of the various security organisations before the court as well. We have discovered that the leaderships of the various security organisations such as the Nigerian Army, the Police and the Directorate of State Security Service (DSS) have been providing security cover for these criminals.
