Now with the myriads of security issues that have mushroomed many analysts are wondering whether Buhari was properly assessed or simply overrated. Besides, some of the people who have compromised the security of the country, for example, the herdsmen, are their “contrymen”. The EFCC Acting Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, has failed confirmation screening at the Senate twice because of a damning report written about him by the Department of State Security Service. Yes, there is the obligatory press release condemning the atrocity and expressing the President’s feelings of sorrow and condolence to the families of the lost persons. From all indications Buhari’s thesis of securing the country by appointing only his “contrymen” to man the key security arms has suffered a severe setback.
