The Senate has revealed that it will convince the President, Muhammadu Buhari, to sack the service chiefs, comprising the Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Air Staff, Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Naval Staff.
The decision came after a motion moved during a plenary session by the Chairman, Senate Committee on Army, Senator Ali Ndume.
He stated that the recent attacks on soldiers in Gamboa-Maiduguri Road in Borno State and Katsina states are a worrying sign for the security of the nation.
