Insecurity In Nigeria A ‘Political’ Issue Left For Military To Resolve — Buratai

A former Chief of Army Staff (CAS), Tukur Buratai, believes defeating insecurity in Nigeria requires a holistic approach, claiming it stems from politics.

Buratai was a guest on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily and thinks leaving the fight against insecurity to the military alone won’t help the country.

“It was started through some political actors, and it was essentially a political issue. This insecurity is essentially political. And now it’s been left to the military, and the political actors are staying behind,” the former CAS told the crew of the breakfast show.

“So this is something that is needed for a total review of the security aspect in terms of political associations or political involvement and so on.”
