The Minister of Defence, Christopher Musa has no business in the UK at this time, he should be leading a delegation of the service chiefs to Maiduguri immediately. I have been remotely involved in the activities on the state visit and the key issues that have dominated the conversations are on trade, business and investment. Unlike the visit to Turkey, the UK is not offering Nigeria any material support in defence and intelligence. So at best, he could have had someone else stand in for him on this trip. He has more serious demands on the home front. The Minister of defence came in with the ovation of all Nigerians and to whom much is given much is also expected. Nigerians want to see tangible improvements in the security situation. Himself and the service won’t be afforded excuses much longer. They must step up and justify the confidence President Bola Tinubu has reposed in them. Nigerians are impatient they want to see an overall improvement in the security situation. The clock is ticking.
