Some security experts in the country have observed that the latest report by the Global and International Terrorism Research/Analysis group, Jihad Analytics, placing Nigeria as the second most terrorised country in the world, is not only shameful but regrettable.
The experts then called on President Muhammadu Buhari to take charge as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, to immediately take proactive steps to address the security challenges bedevilling the country with a view of ensuring sanity in the system.
In a statement jointly signed by the National Coordinator, Kolade Babatunde, and National Secretary, Dr Ibrahim Bulama Mongonu, Forum of Security Experts in Nigeria (FSEN), the concerned experts explained that the report by the Global and International Terrorism Research/Analysis has continued to generate intense debate among Nigerians, saying that the research group claimed that Nigeria ranks second among nations struggling under the weight of terrorism, insurgency, banditry, and kidnapping, after Iraq.
The experts immediately and unconditionally called for the sack and probe of the National Security Adviser (NSA), retired Major General Mohammed Babagana Monguno and the Service Chiefs, saying that the development triggered angry reaction from the security experts and stakeholders in the country.
