IBB, Gowon, Abdulsalam etc earns their escorts as Heads of States. Those escorts are guaranteed. Buratai [CANNOT] remove them.
True that, ex presidents are guaranteed security for life and nobody born Buratai to remove them.

Very good of the Nigerian Army.

Withdraw military securities of partisan retired Generals untill after election. They might abused the privilege to the detriment of other parties.
A dangerous precidence APC is setting. Who withdrew buhari's own during election even with all his incisive activities.

These men are high net-worth individuals and pray that no harm comes to them during the period.

Gradually, buhari is slipping the nation into anarchy and pariah but thank God this impunity ends in 2 days!

This is the first time this is happening in Nigeria and Pmb will pay for it after election or in future, because he had set a bad precedent. This again shows that our president is either clueless or has bad advisers. May be, somebody needs to remind him that, he himself is a retired military man in politics, so he should expect same to visited on him sooner than he anticipated. Power is not permanent.

16yrs of PDP you mean.

Coup is no longer acceptable globally. Some nigerians may support such if young officers decides to clean the augean stable by eliminating current political players and their cronies but majority of nigerians would not support coup.

And should buhari make such move then that he'll swiftly meet his waterloo.
No 16years of APC....all the former rogues and Idiots in PDP then are all now in apc

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen Tukur Buratai, has ordered the immediate withdrawal of military escorts for retired army generals and others during the elections.

The Army Chief also said that there will be no military escorts for politicians even as the army has been mandated to ensure that there is restriction of movement.

In his statement, he ordered the military commanders to ensure that anyone caught in doing anything inimical during the elections should be dealt with decisively.

COAS orders is not unconnected with the outcome of the meeting held with President Muhammadu Buhari and other security chiefs on Tuesday.

it looks more like the president is declaring a martial law or state of emergency for a civilian election, what a shame... the army is for National security both in offensive and defensive part against external enemies.
The police alone controls the security of any civil election in developed nations, i just wonder why civil defence, federal road safety and Nigeria police is not enough to secure our national election, it shows incompetence and uselessness of our law enforcers.

Not quite! Truth is, a careful and dispassionate study of Nigeria’s political history shows that brigandage cum ballot box snatching at a level the police are ill-equipped to handle is the bane of our election cycles. It is made possible by the use of police and military escorts to intimidate, maim and kill citizens so as to subvert the electoral process. Obasanjo et al are self professed apostles of do or die politics and are better reined in by withdrawing their military escorts who are bound to take orders from him while assigned to him! Now, he is cut to size!! A move by him to personally snatch the ballot box will see him shot at sight! Folks in critiquing Buhari for the order have failed to note that it cuts across board such that a member of his own party who attempts to snatch the ballot box also risks getting shot by the Military. Arguments to the effect that the Order will result in extra judicial killings will diminish in the face of the ineffectiveness overtime of the judicial process in punishing such acts post-elections! The Doctrine of necessity must be called into play here. Those who have said Buhari is lifeless will join him on Saturday where they insist on violence and ballot box snatching in their desperate bid to compromise the electoral process. We should let the loser lose fairly and the victor win acceptably.
