The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmaker while congratulating the new appointees, urged them to deliver on their mandate, and restore the country to its former glory where lives “are sacred, and investment, economic opportunities and political stability flourishes.”
The former chairman of the House’s Public Accounts Committee said: “The appointments are laudable and commendable going by the track records of the appointees, they should hit the ground running immediately by addressing squarely all the security challenges facing the country as a nation.
“There should be no further excuses for security lapses again, Nigeria needs absolute peace for meaningful development of the country. Nigerians need to feel the direct impacts of democracy in all the nooks and crannies of the country which they voted for and not insurgency as we have been witnessing over the years.
“Our security chiefs should put their arsenal together and give the nation a new lease of life, congratulations to them and same to the Mr President for his choice of the appointees.”
He hailed President Tinubu for the inclusion of two worthy indigenes of Osun State, Major General Lagbaja, the Chief of Army Staff, and Adeniyi, the Acting Comptroller of the Nigerian Customs Service and urged the duo to prove themselves as worthy ambassadors of the State in the course of discharging their assignments for the nation.
