Nigerians have renewed calls for the sack of service chiefs over worsening security situation of the country.
The latest call was triggered by slaughtering of 43 farmers in Borno, Northeast Nigeria on Saturday.
Men of the dreaded Boko Haram terrorist group reportedly attacked and killed 43 farmers in a rice farm in Borno on Saturday by slitting their throats.
Reacting to reports of the gory massacre, angry Nigerians urged President Muhammadu Buhari to sack the service chiefs and get competent ones to secure the nation.
Venting their anger on Twitter, the citizens said it was about time the “ineffectual” service chiefs got replaced.
Baba @MBuhari, i beg you with whatever you hold dear, sack the service chiefs. Arewa is sinking due to insecurity. There is urgent need for fresh ideas. Guys, please CC anyone you feel can help get this message to Mr. President in the comment section

The killing of 43 Nigerians today who were working hard on their farm to make ends meet is barbaric and very sad. It is obvious the security architecture and strategy of the service chiefs and their commander in chief has failed woefully. We cannot continue like this.

Our real problems are the Service Chiefs. They collect money and remain silent to bad governance. They are daft accomplices. Soldiers are in detention for speaking out. Buhari has over 200 security agents attached to him. What are they guarding? A push and start president?

The government of @MBuhari failed northerners and Nigerian. It's the only govt that's retained/retaining service chiefs that failed to secure their region talkless of the country. #ServiceChiefs

And Gov Zulum will run to Villa crying again. But Villa, as usual, will rather do another tete-a tete with the untouchable service chiefs. Allah remains our only hope now. @Jack_Vince77 @kingmythmaker @PremiumTimesng @thecableng @THISDAYLIVE @
