A day after ordering the dismantling of military checkpoints nationwide, President Muhammadu Buhari has relaxed the rule.

Abdulazeez Yari, governor of Zamfara state and chairman of the governors’ forum, said on Tuesday that the governors told Buhari the order was “untimely” because of the security challenges facing the states.

“But Mr. President cited some incidents that happened at the military checkpoints but where necessary, he has given the chief of army staff the permission that they can continue especially in the north, south-east and the frontline states,” he said.
The frontline states are where the counter-terrorism operations are currently taking place in the north-east.

“We discussed the issue of frontline states as regards insurgency: Borno, Yobe and Adamawa. The president briefed us on his meeting with the G7 countries who have agreed to support the Nigerian government to fight the insurgency to the last.

“Also, it was noted that the insurgency has done so much damage to our infrastructure – schools, hospitals, and bridges. The president said he has put a committee in place to go and assess the situation and he has also made a commitment that he will not request money from any G7 country but support to rebuild the destroyed infrastructure,” Yari said.

If you guys listened to the address to Journalists by the perm sec, Ministry of defense after the meeting with the service chiefs yesterday, He alluded to what Gov Yari said today.

Infact, see from the article posted

“But Mr. President cited some incidents that
happened at the military checkpoints but where
necessary, he has given the chief of army staff
the permission that they can continue especially
in the north, south-east and the frontline
states,” he said.

Obviously the Govs themselves didn't watch the news yesterday hence PMB had to bring them up to speed. He and the Chief of Army staff already decided that and the Perm Sec, Ministry of Defense clearly said so yesterday.

MUST EVERYTHING BE ABOUT JONATHAN. BUHARI SHOULD BE HIS OWN MAN AND CRITICIZED WITHOUT THE SHADOW OF JONATHAN.

dustmalik:

Exactly. The problem is, TheCable does a terrible job at reporting, and the saTANoids can't read and comprehend, even if their lives depends on it.

ZeezaRapture:


the truth is, if you TANoids dont stop criticizing BUHARI for little mistakes (has he even made any mistake??) we wont stop referring you (TANoids) to Jonathan..

Bro, don't mind the group of the confused who never listen to news but are first to rush to post. PMB didn't make any reversal. The perm Sec Ministry of defense already made this clarification yesterday while chatting with journalists after the meeting. It was on channels TV at least.

If they even read the OP, they would have seen Yari acknowledge that PMB said he had already told the army chief that
