Why Olonisakin, Buratai, others failed as security chiefs – Wike

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has revealed why security was poor under the immediate past service chiefs.

According to Governor Wike, “instead of concentrating on the security of the nation, the service chiefs were very much involved in politics.”

Speaking as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Wike urged the new leaders of the armed forces not to toe the path of their predecessors.

“This was the problem we had with the previous chiefs, they were involved in politics rather than face the security of the nation.

“Nobody can deny that fact; the moment you politicize security, then you are bound to have problems,” Wike stated via a zoom call.

“The new people that are appointed must ask themselves, what is our agenda? Is our agenda to continue with where the last service chiefs stopped, or to make sure we improve?”
