SHUAIB had put in three years on the job, serving as an intermediary between all the major security and response agencies and the media in Nigeria.He was recruited by former National Security Adviser, retired Colonel SAMBO DASUKI to serve as media consultant to military, security, intelligence and response organisations under a unified platform.In a lengthy notice of resignation addressed to the Chairman of the forum and Director of Defence Information, Brigadier-General RABE ABUBAKAR, SHUAIB said he could no longer continue to serve because of what he termed a misleading report by presidential committee under the National Security Adviser.He alleged that the National Security Adviser unjustly accused almost all institutions and individuals that served the office without fair hearing.SHUAIB said the Presidential Panel merely criminalized critical institutions and indicted groups and individuals in the media without being arraigned in the court of law where the accused could prove their innocence.He advised President MUHAMMADU BUHARI to be mindful of those whose stock in trade is to blackmail and destroy others apparently as a means of venting their anger over their past frustrations.SHUAIB berated the Presidential Panel for deliberately refusing to appreciate Public Relations intervention in crisis management.He emphasized that for genuine reasons and concern, the strategic team he headed managed many humiliating and embarrassing reports from leakages, including alleged terrorists’ attacks in the hometowns of top security officers in the current administration.SHUAIB said he believes strongly that President BUHARI was being misled with negative and predetermined reports that continue to portray Nigeria as the most corrupt nation.He said what is needed is for the President to be encouraged to address the current problems of weak currency, fuel crises, poor electricity supply, and skyrocketing costs of living.
