From Okwe Obi, Abuja
President Bola Tinubu has been charged by the Advocates of Justice in Africa (AJA), to extend his change of guards to other sectors of the economy just as he did in the Department of State Services (DSS) and National Intelligence Agency (NIA).
AJA Coordinator, Johnson Ali Usman, in a statement, yesterday, said the corruption in other sectors accused of inefficiencies, corruption, and mismanagement should be checked properly.
He said: “We call on President Tinubu to extend this sanitization to the oil and gas sector.
“The immediate appointment of capable hands is urgently needed before this government loses face completely.”
Meanwhile, he said Mohammed Mohammed and Adeola Ajayi’s appointments demonstrated the President’s commitment to reforming critical institutions.
According to Usman, Mohammed’s experience and dedication make him an excellent choice while Ajayi’s rise through the ranks and wealth of experience make him an ideal candidate.
“Mohammed, who joined the NIA in 1995, has served in various roles, culminating in his promotion to Director and subsequent appointment as head of the Nigerian mission to Libya,” he said.
“His vast experience and commitment to service make him an excellent choice to lead the NIA. Ajayi rose through the ranks to attain his current post of Assistant Director-General of the Service, serving as State Director in various states. His dedication and leadership qualities make him an ideal candidate to head the DSS.
“We hail President Tinubu for taking the bold decision to revamp the secret police and intelligence agency.
“This move demonstrates his commitment to reforming critical institutions and ensuring they serve the nation’s best interests. His decision sends a strong message that he is willing to make tough choices to address the nation’s security challenges.
“President Tinubu’s decision to appoint new heads for the DSS and NIA is a step in the right direction. It shows that he is committed to addressing the nation’s security challenges and ensuring that critical institutions are led by capable hands.”
