Human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore has slammed Yusuf Tukur Buratai, former Chief of Army Staff, over his recent call for another lockdown in the country.

DAILY POST reports that Buratai had during an interview on Channels stressed the need for a nationwide lockdown as a strategy to decisively tackle banditry, terrorism, kidnapping, and other criminal activities in the country.

Reacting, Sowore, in a post on Facebook, countered the call, stating that Buratai’s only achievement during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown was the “bloody #EndSARS Massacre”.

Sowore also knocked Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Musa over his recent comment on self-defense amid the ravaging security crisis.

He wrote, “Today, this same man is shamelessly calling for another COVID-style lockdown, while the current Chief of Defence Staff, Christopher Musa, absurdly proposes “Kung-fu self-defense” as a solution to insecurity.

“This is the calibre of airheads who have ruined Nigeria, men who respond to real crises with outright nonsense”.
