Nigerian President, Bola Tinubu has unveiled the newest replacements of homeland security and foreign intelligence chief following abrupt resignation of their predecessors amid northeastern insurgency and rampant kidnappings.
The move by Tinubu, according to reports forms part of Tinubu’s mission to battle the incessant conditions of the uprising.
Mohammed Mohammed, who headed Nigeria’s mission to Libya, will lead the National Intelligence Agency. Adeola Ajayi will helm the Department of State Security.
The former agency chiefs who did not give the reason for their resignations, leave at a period where Nigeria faces the aftermath of armed gang attacks and more than decade-old insurgency in the northeast.
