Also, President Buhari is set to sack the service chiefs. Presidency sources told Punch that all the service chiefs would be relieved of their appointments before the end of July.
Mr. President is said to be considering leaving the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase.
The service chiefs to go are the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshall Alex Badeh; Chief of Army Staff, Major General Kenneth Minimah; Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral Usman Jibrin; and Chief of Air Staff, Air Vice Marshall Adesola Amosu.
You may wish to know that the new DG of DSS, who attended Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, from 1977 to 1980, started his career in the State Security Service in 1982 and rose to the rank of a director.
He was at one time the Deputy Director, Presidential Communications, Command and Control Centre, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, between 2003 and 2007.
Daura also served as State Director, Security Service, at various times for states like Kano, Sokoto, Edo, Lagos, Osun and Imo.
He attended various professional courses, both at home and abroad, including the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, Kuru. Daura was born in Daura on August 5,1953.
It will be recalled that the DSS had in January said that it had uncovered lists containing names and photos of security personnel, foreigners and under-aged kids on the registered members’ list of the APC.
But the APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, had stated, “We have always warned that our democracy is in clear and present danger, not just from desperate politicians, but also from institutions of state that have compromised in their roles and resorted to crass lawlessness. The DSS’ ‘findings’ today have given us another reason to repeat this warning.”
