Shehu Sani, a former federal lawmaker has faulted President Bola Tinubu for appointing Mohammed Badaru as the Minister of Defence.

 

According to him, a politician should not have been appointed as Defence Minister.

 

Sani noted that the ministry should have been given to a retired military officer with records of accomplishments.

 

Tweeting, Sani wrote: “In view of the security challenges faced by this country, I thought the Defence Minister should be a retired Military officer with experience and records of accomplishments.

“That office shouldn’t be just political, especially at this time.”
