Earlier this year. I guess its a way to feel among and "americanise" a bit..lol! Jokes apart I think there's a tactical reason why the rank slide is now placed in the lower chest region. Here's the video of the launch of the new Navy uniform.

P.S I don't mean to teach you how to suck eggs but we use the star in the Nigerian armed forces not the Pip (i.e. the pip is used by the british). Differences:

advocate666: which kind reporting be this? How can ten more vehicles bring the total number of vehicles to five?

Dede1: It is the height of stupidity on the part of governor Obi to spend the money meant for the people of Anambra State on Nigerian army.

Everything about Nigeria exudes stupidity. Granted that staff cars of the officers with the rank of general are designated with STARs corresponding to the officer’s rank, it is plain idiocy to imitate American military parlance by wearing a British rank insignia as well as USA’s.

In the picture where governor Obi handed the keys to the Maj. Gen. Oshinowo, the general wore the British\Nigerian rank on his lower chest and USA format on his cullar. It is a bad joke that the general wore two stars on the culler of his uniform instead of red ribbon that represent the British\Nigerian rank of Maj. Gen. I wonder what prevented him from wearing two stars on his berate instead of Nigerian insignia of the rank of Maj. Gen.

REVOLUTNIS:
The governor is the chief security officer of the state and its his duty to enhance, provide and better and efficient vehicles for security operatives in state for easy movement into rural areas of the state where criminals and hoodlums might be hiding. he is not the first governor that is doing it. beside, a security conscious governor would not wait for whatever is mark out in the budget for security b4 securing the state which is under his watch. It is another way of utilizing the 6billion he collects as monthly security vote. We should not be complaining and seeing only the negative in our leaders.

Negro_Ntns:

you love parading your stewpidity in public square.

what military convention says you can have one or the other but not both styles?

Dede1:

What a bloody fool. I guess you have never seen a military parade ground in your entire miserable life. Military is strictly regimented and will tolerate a patchy uniform talk less of wearing uniform out of formal protocol. Nigerian military culture and tradition are rooted in the British armed forces.

aribisala0:

No old man it is NOT stupidity . THat is the NEW CAMOUFLAGE which was launched this year.http://nigeriannewstrack.com/wpnnt/?p=612
Camouflage is different from regular gear and I guess reading ranks may be confusing to some.

Now I would like to believe that they have reasons for that and would have gone through some process to arrive at that decision.So rather than come and expose your empty head in public AGAIN why not send for some more SNUFF

aribisala0:
You are a dunce! What is your point exactly? We know you are never coherent in speaking why not just order some snuff!
Wipe your mouth before people see your saliva.

Dede1:


I have not learnt much in my many empty years on this planet

redsun:

Police is not the army.Army IS for defence and Ffor high state of emergency.It is not the duty of the state government to finance them or even engage them unless in a dire state eemergency.They are not for mundane state security that they the leaders caused as a result of their incessant stealins and mismanagement of public funds.

It is the duty of the police to safeguard the state and provide adequate security,but in nigeria case,there is no police,just like there are no leaders.

when did naija army start putting stars (pips) on their neck and stomach

991: waste of state resources. buying cars for national army while the FG has budgeted almost 6billion for security. by the way anambra road from enugu is the worst in the country.

Negro_Ntns:

Canada and America, like Nigeria, were once British commonwealth. Canada and America no longer keep to the British protocol. Britain does not have a licensed right on how or in what format your military apparels are worn. Because Nigerian Army is a conventional fighting force it is bound by crrtain protocols to keep within a degree of complianc but is not as narrow and constricting as you have alarmed it to be.

If the regimen are so tight as you portray it, then Idi Amin would have been court martialed for his numerous military uniform and rank violations alone.

kingoflag:

What was funny about that?

aribisala0:
Go and bury the b.itch
