The Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, on Wednesday said President Muhammadu Buhari
was planning a reshuffling of the nation’s security architecture to address
ongoing security challenges in parts of the country.
Dogara, however, did not disclose
the details of the re-organisation.
Dogara said this in an interview
with State House correspondents after a meeting he and the President of the
Senate, Bukola Saraki, had with Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The speaker offered the
condolence of the National Assembly to the families of the attack victims and
urged Nigerians to live peacefully.
He, however, said security
matters cannot be discussed in public but the President informed them about the
reorganisation he plans to put in place.
Dogara also stressed that while
these are sober moments, the nation cannot continue to tolerate the present
insecurity situation.
“The President has taken enough
steps, these are security issues, they are not matters that you can discuss;
but he has told us what he is doing, the re-organisation that he plans to put
in place to ensure that this doesn’t happen,” he said.
