The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has given reasons why Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari cannot sack service chiefs  for now.

Mustapha spoke with newsmen after a book presentation titled: “CAN, Religion, Politics and Power in Nigeria,” by former General Secretary of Christian Association of Nigeria(CAN), Samuel Salifu.

He said: “We need synergy within intelligent community, within the military formations that will help fight this war. We are in a very difficult situation and when we begin to create cracks and divisions, who will be the beneficiaries? The adversaries are the ones that are going to exploit those deficiencies and further the cause of destabilizing the nation.

“I think that should be our main focus. You don’t sack people like that. There are processes and I believe that at the opportune time, those processes will be followed. You don’t just wake up and say sack people, it doesn’t happen like that,” he said.
