Unlike the majority of Nigerians, the Labour Party (LP) is not extremely excited over the sack of the service chiefs by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The LP, however, alleged that Buhari acted in a hurry, Daily Post
reports. The party national chairman Abdulkadir Abdulsalam made the
official position known through the statement issued on Monday, July 13.
“It is my candid opinion that Mr. President should have
exercised a little restraint in sacking the service chiefs; he should
not have taken that action in a hurry. He should have considered the
totality of what is on ground. But the fact of the matter is that his
action may have also been informed by the security report he had. We do
not know what is available to him, which made him take that action
hastily the way he did it.
“But whatever the information in possession of the president, it is our candid opinion that the president should have waited for some time, to still try the service chiefs before they were bundled out of office. Buhari should have waited because he seems to be acting on the basis of trial and error. Probably, they must have advised him regarding the removal of checkpoints.
