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.

According to Orange , 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”.
