Shehu Sani Reacts As Tinubu Sacks All Service Chiefs

Former Kaduna federal lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani, has reacted to the sacking of all service chiefs including the Inspector-General of Police.

Naija News reported earlier that President Bola Tinubu retired all the service chiefs and also approved the replacement of the Comptroller-General of Customs.

According to a statement signed by George Akume, secretary to the government of the federation, their retirement is with immediate effect.

Reacting via his Twitter page, Senator Sani commended Tinubu for relieving the service chiefs of their duties.

According to him, they belong to the old decadent order.

“The retirement of those service chiefs and comptroller General of Customs and others is a welcome development. They belong to the old decadent order. When the head is gone, so should the tail. Good riddance,” the former lawmaker wrote on the microblogging platform.
