He pointed out that once a person who begins to spend more than his earning, it means he has started engaging in illegal activities. “And if one day he buys a new motorcycle amounting to over N200,000 naira, then you must know that he is selling people’s lives,” Masari said. Meanwhile, the Nigerian Senate said there is no going back on the call for the sack service chiefs, vowing to mount pressure on President Muhammadu Buhari. Speaking with pressmen on Friday, August 14, Senate spokesperson, Ajibola Basiru said the call for the sack of the security chiefs over rising insecurity is advisory but represents the collective interest of the country. The resolution followed a motion by Senator Ali Ndume (APC, Borno) who expressed worry over the reported voluntary retirement of over 200 army officers.

The Nigeria Diaspora Community for Peace (NDCP) said it arrived at this conclusion after direct interface and interaction with community members through delegated visits to affected areas and political leaders. The president of the group, Elisha Longpet in a statement issued from Scotland, said the group discovered that politicians return to their roots only during campaigns and disappear as soon they are elected.
