He’ll become a Biafra hero… may this cleansing continue — Twitter reacts to suspension of SGF
President Muhammadu Buhari has suspended Babachir Lawal, secretary to the government of the federation, and Ayo Oke, director-general of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), for allegations of financial misappropriation leveled against them.
While some are praising the president, other are saying he is too slow in taking key decisions.
Here are the diverse reactions of Nigerians on Twitter:
Today is April 19, 2017. SGF Babachir Lawal has been suspended by PMB! May this cleansing continue. And may all corrupt hands be purged out!

The suspension of Babachir Lawal and the notorious NIA boss is a big boost to the anti-corruption crusade. Thumbs up PMB!

Note: The picture of Lawal in this story was taken as he was making his way out of the presidential villa after receiving the sudden news.
If he had been suspended earlier, you will still see people who will complain that he was suspended so quickly because he is a Christian and a member of CAN
