Senator Ali Ndume, chairman of the army committee in the National Assembly has said that President Muhammadu Buhari is responsible for the high spate of insecurity in Nigeria as the nation’s commander-in-chief.
He spoke on Sunday while appearing on Politics Today, a Channels Television programme.
According to him, the president has been acting as the director-in-chief rather than as the commander in chief of the country’s armed forces who has the power to appoint and sack non-performing appointees.
