The Presidency on Tuesday said the appointment or the sack of service chiefs is a presidential prerogative.

Specifically, it noted that President Muhamadu Bihari in his capacity as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, will do what is in the best interest of the country at all times.

Presidential Spokesman, Femi Adesina made this known in a statement on Tuesday.

The Nigerian Senate on Tuesday adopted a resolution calling on the Service Chiefs to resign or be sacked due to the multi-pronged security challenges in the country.

“The Presidency notes the resolution, and reiterates that appointment or sack of Service Chiefs is a Presidential prerogative, and President Muhammadu Buhari, in his capacity as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, will do what is in the best interest of the country at all times”.
