President Muhammadu Buhari has again challenged the new service chiefs and the acting Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba, to work diligently towards meeting the expectations of Nigerians
The president gave the charge while assessing the performances of the new service chiefs as well as the tasks before them and that of the acting IGP.
The president, who fielded questions from State House correspondents on his arrival from London after successful medical check-up, said: “Oh yes, they (service chiefs) have been in the system all the way, they know what is wrong, they know what is right and I think they are doing their best.
”I hope their best will be good enough for Nigerians.”

”He knows his job, he has been in it for a long time, he went through all the training, he has the necessary experience.
”So, we have a high expectation from him.”
