The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has backed the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to extend the tenure of Mohammed Adamu as Inspector-General of Police (IGP), for three months despite the expiration of his tenure in the police force.
The students body faulted the leadership of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), for instituting legal action against the Presidency, claiming that the tension hastened
by the increased insecurity in the country requires that the President exercises discretion in the appointment of a new IGP. NANS President, Comrade Sunday Asefon, at news conference on Monday, in Abuja, insisted that the intension of the President, which he said was to avoid hasty appointment that would aggravate the already tensed situation, should be applauded rather than condemned. He also dismissed allegation by an online news report, that the IGP reportedly paid N2 billion as bribe to some persons in the Presidency in order to extend his tenure in office.
