The Coalition of Northern Elders for Peace and Development, or CNEEPP, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to fire National Security Adviser Babagana Monguno as a result of the country’s escalating insecurity.
Additionally, the elders requested Buhari to fire all of the nation’s Service Chiefs.
The removal of Monguno and the Service Chiefs, according to CNEEPP, will improve security throughout the nation during the general elections in 2023.

Security personnel no longer have faith in Monguno and the Service Chiefs, according to a statement from the group’s National Coordinator, Zana Goni.
The statement reads: “Nigerians in 2015 and 2019 voted President Buhari to power in anticipation that as a former military head of state and a retired General, he was the right person to deal decisively with all forms of threats to the security of the people.
“But over seven years down the line, rather than abate, insecurity has escalated, thereby, exposing great numbers of people to avoidable deaths and loss of property in a manner that history has never witnessed.
“While we recognise President Buhari’s prerogative to appoint, sack or replace service chiefs, at the same time, he swore an oath to protect the lives and property of every Nigerian citizen.
