Tinubu Must Redeploy Or Remove Bello Matawalle – US Lawmaker

Bola Tinubu

A United States lawmaker, Kimberly Daniels, has urged President Bola Tinubu to redeploy or remove the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle. She recently cited concerns raised in a recent security assessment on Nigeria, and Nigerians have been reacting.

Highlighting the worsening security situation in parts of the country, Kimberly stated that the assessment report reviewed the implications of Nigeria’s present security leadership amid the spate of violence.

She added that several local leaders keep pointing to a gap between official assurances and the realities faced by communities on the ground.

Her words, “To the Government of Nigeria, the results of the assessment urge President Tinubu to ‘look inward’ and remove elements that compromise national security.

Specifically, immediate leadership review. The removal or redeployment of Minister Bello Matawalle to restore the integrity of the defence ministry.

The position I take on this issue is because of citizens reaching out to me from Nigeria.

My connection to Nigeria as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Chairwoman of UN-WCD would not allow me to be silent. Based on the referenced report, the attacks against believers in Northern Nigeria are allegedly protected by leadership from the inside.

The greatest form of terrorism a person can experience is terror that comes from ‘homegrown familiar enemies.’ When the people you trust to protect you work undercover with others who want to harm you, it must be devastating!”

WOW.
