A political scientist, Dr.
Gbade Ojo, yesterday faulted the former Service Chiefs for committing
security blunders, especially on the abduction of the Chibok girls.
He said it was unprofessional for them to announce the locations of the Chibok girls without liberating them.
Ojo, who spoke in an interview in
Ibadan, said the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to sack them was
in line with the need to re-strategise on the security lapses in the
country. He said there was a serious strategic lapse on the part of one
of the former Service chiefs for disclosing the whereabouts of the
Chibok girls, which, he added, should have been made a secret.
“ Immediately he made the announcement,
the girls were relocated. That was a serious lapse on the part of that
particular service chief,” Ojo said.
He advised the newly-appointed Service
chiefs to learn from the mistakes of their predecessors, saying they
should collaborate with their colleagues in neighbouring countries.
Ojo noted that the country’s
techno-economic structure needed to be improved upon to tackle terrorism
threats, adding that without technology, terrorism could not be fought
effectively.
