Governors Are Frustrated, Helpless Over Insecurity In The Country – El-Rufai by nairavsdollars(op): 8:19pm On Nov 30, 2020
Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai on Monday said many state governors in Nigeria are currently frustrated and helpless over the insecurity challenges in the country.

Speaking in an interview on Channels Television programme ‘Politics Today’, El-Rufai, who also lamented the insecurity challenges in Kaduna state said as governor, he and other governors have no control over the Commissioners of Police in their states even though they are addressed as Chief Security Officers.

“We are all frustrated. I am frustrated in my state, many governors are frustrated in their states. We are called Chief Security Officers only in name, we have no control over the coercive instrument of the state. We are all frustrated.
“We are almost helpless. The #EndSARS protest clearly showed the limit of the control of the governors over the police and the army. Some of us have more influence than others but to a large extent, you ask the Commissioner of Police to do something, he has to clear with the IGP This is the reality.

“I don’t determine who get posted to my state as Commissioner of Police and if I give him directive, he can decide to flout the directive,” he said.

I don’t like hearing any word from this Fulani Jihadist.

How can you have control?

When your Fulani Jihadist brothers were killing innocent people in Kaduna, you were busy dancing in Edo

When you couldn’t handle the backlash you came out to say it’s retaliation killing.

Because you are not ready to do anything, you claim you don’t have control.

foolish midget

I HOPE I MADE SENSE

Governors are called Chief security officer for nothing same way Buhari is called Commander in Chief for nothing

Arrrrrrrh

What is el rufai talking about?

Oga shift joor, few days back they killed people in jama'a local government. And you are saying you are frustrated?

I don't trust this man, the way this Fulani guys invade places it's so appalling. They enter a local government do what they want to do and at the end no police or soldier would come, there's something fishy. No doubt!!!

These governors are never tired of collecting the security votes & enjoying the perks of the office but are always quick in giving excuses.El Rufai please do as you once suggested to the former president.

Despite all the attempts to derail his administration, Buhari's support remains over the roof, intimidating, loyal and steadfast. Buharinomics should be studied as a political course after 2023.

I know say all those pictures of development going in the north way I dey post dey really pain una reach bone.

Oya here you go...Even with the security challenges in kaduna state.

Kaduna is still developing and doing better than all the eastern States combined.

this Kaduna State under Elrufai.

You think I will be intimidated not post pictures of development going on in the north just because of insecurity in some part of the state?

If you need more pictures of development going on in Kaduna State tell me.

But they aren't helpless and frustrated while drawing undisclosed and unaudited amounts monthly as security votes for the same security they couldn't provide.
