The Senate President who is currently battling forces in his party and the presidency, and recently being issued a bench warrant by the code of conduct tribunal has removed all APC branding from his twitter account.

When twitter users noticed this, Saraki responded saying he is the Senate President of all senators irrespective of party and still remains with the APC.

He also noted that the President, Vice President and Speaker of the House do not also use the APC branding.

"We are willing to negotiate with Boko Haram" - President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has said that one of the conditions given by Boko Haram for the release of the abducted Chibok schoolgirls was for the Nigerian government to release one of the sect members with expertise in making Improvised Explosives Devices (IEDs).

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the President stated this on Tuesday in Paris while responding to questions from members of the Nigerian community in France under the auspices of Nigerians in Diaspora Organization (NIDO).

Buhari however said his government would not accept such a demand.

“They wanted us to release one of their leaders who is a strategic person in developing and making Improvised IEDs that is causing a lot of havoc in the country by blowing people in Churches, Mosques, market places, motor parks and other places,” he said.

Why DSS Sacked 65 Personnel

Details have emerged why about 65 personnel of the Department of State Services who were evicted from the service training school in Lagos were asked to leave the service.

A senior officer of the service who spoke with Vanguard in Abuja Sunday evening said the trainees were sent out because “their recruitment did not follow laid down procedures of choosing personnel into the service.”

It will be recalled that DSS 65 cadet officers of the service who were undergoing training at the State Services Academy, SSA, in Lagos, including a sibling of the sacked former spokes person of the service, Marilyn Ogar were asked to leave earlier this month, few weeks to their passing out.

No reason was given for their dismissal which was contained in a letter by the Director General of the Department of State Service, Lawal Daura.

But speaking with Vanguard on why the decision was taken, a senior officer of the service who is familiar with the matter said their sack was “inevitable” because their recruitment process was “flawed.”

“What happened was that recruitment of most of these cadets did not follow due process. They were brought into the service by politicians without meeting the stringent requirements set by the service in recruiting its personnel. They were dumped on the service by politicians through the active connivance of the past leadership of the service. We are re-organising the service so we cannot afford to have partisan political moles in our midst” the source said.

The source who is a senior operative of the service said the process of “weeding undesirable elements” who found their way into the service was ongoing. The present leadership of the service is determined to reposition the service to its professional roles. There is nothing personal about the decision of the service. It was a very painful decision in view of the investment made on them but it was a decision that must be taken” he said.

The 65 officers were said to have been in the academy since December 2014 for a 10-month training programme and were due for commissioning into the service as Senior Intelligence Officers, SIO, on October 26, 2015.

They had all undergone the basic training in the academy and the three months attachment at the DSS state commands nationwide for practicals.
