The Senate has recommended that President Muhammadu Buhari removes the Service Chiefs.

The lawmakers made this recommendation at Tuesday’s plenary during a debate on security in the nation and the attack on rice farmers in Borno State which left at least 43 dead.

The red chamber asked Buhari to restructure and remodel the nation’s security architecture. The Senate also demanded a probe into the allegations of corruption and financial leakages levelled against some members of the top hierarchy of the military.

Former governor of Borno State, Senator Kashim Shettima had earlier raised the motion at plenary noting that President Buhari should remove the security chiefs and replace them with new ones with new ideas to address the alarming insecurity in the country.

The lawmaker also claimed that 67 farmers, not 43. were killed in the attack.
