You are the one getting it wrong, Colin Powell was not a service chief. This man, Charles Brown is the first ever black man to be appointed as service chief in the US military.

Joint chiefs chairman is ceremonial. You don't have authority over more than your personal security detail. Air force, army and naval chiefs are the ones in charge.

JOINT CHIEF OF STAFF IS NOT THE EQUIVALENT OF CHIEF OF DEFENSE STAFF. IT'S EQUIVALENT IS CHIEF OF GENERAL STAFF, A FIRST AMONG EQUALS.

Do we have Chief of General Staff? Which one is recognized by the construction?

Why don't we have that today?

Chief of General Staff is the creation of the military junta and the Military era equivalent of Vice President..

See as him resemble Igbo with that light complexion and flat skull like Nnamdi kanu; you can tell the same blood flowing through him from Igbo ancestors. Yorubbas above fighting and arguing, does he look like you people? You are Hamite black, not Black Hebrews like Igbos and African Americans.

oh really
He was nominated in March but a racist Republican Senator placed a hold on his confirmation.

It was after the protests of George Floyd and his speaking out that the hold was quickly removed. grin

He probably realised they were about to hold him back again, so he posted a video last week about George Floyd, and the the injustice he and other black Americans/minorities faced in rising up.

Oh well. The most important thing is that he has now been confirmed.

I have a big problem with toilet wipes like you. When bugs like you come to the United States, you never vote Republican. You know instantly that the democrats are your friends. It is the democrats that try to help immigrants float along until they can obtain permanent residence or citizenship. It is the democrats that pursue legislation that fosters equality, that targets immigrant-households and alerts them that the government recognizes them. When you are poor, hopeless, and downtrodden in America, it is the Democrats who look out for you and give you hope. The Republicans are all about conservatism, whose definition seems to loosen or tighten depending on what their present leaders are up to.

It is only JEALOUSY, IGNORANCE and SCHADENFREUDE that cause Nigerians to support Trump and his mean immigrant policies, over the Nigerian, Kenyan, Mexican, Venezuelan, Brazilian, Polish, and other immigrants in the US. You're jealous because your life is FC.UKED up in Nigeria and you can't stand the fact that other Nigerians, like you, have escaped the vicious cycle of poverty and disease in Nigeria. How can any right thinking Nigerian support Trump? Trump who treats people who look like you like sh.it. Dem swear for you ni? Onye iberibe.

You're suffering from cognitive dissonance.

guy, don't stress, the trump supporters in Nigeria are the pdp apologists hating on Obama for not supporting their darling pdp and former president jonathan to remain in office beyond 2015. They are yet to recover from the elections defeat in 2015 and can never recover. Their so called support for trump is just one of their consolation to find refuge for their election loss back in 2015. They know the things trump is doing is bad but they must continue to pretend they love him and hide under the guise that trump love Christians and hate Muslims cos they hate northerners too who are majorly Muslims especially the fulanis of which PMB is one. Right inside them they don't like trump but for political expediences to continue to maintain their political support base in Nigeria. We know them too well, don't stress yourself for their lies.

Joint Chiefs of Staff is superior. But in reality a service chief controls his military unit and budget and is usually more powerful and can make more money.

That's why if I say Burutai (Army service chief) you know who that is easily, but not Abayomi (Chief of Defence Staff or JCofS equivalent)

US Air Force and US Army are two different entities but both US Military or US Armed Forces.

They have; Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard.

Lets say people like me are not a fan of democrats. 1st we dont apply for visa lottery. We love our country and want it to work. American fathers fought and created their country, but someone like you want to go there, feel among, and claim glories that are not yours.

Our interest with Donald Trump is a bigger picture ...bigger than american visa lottery or green card.

We want world peace. Trump campaigned he will take america out of wars. Especially wars that doesnt concern america. America went to Iraq bombed it to pieces, Afganistan, Pakistan, Libya.

Obama a democrat help killed Ghadaffi in Libya, ever since then, Libya a small London became a destruction and war front up till this moment. Weapons from Ghadafi armoury flow freely to Mali and Boko haram.

Does visa lottery people like you know how many people boko haram have killed up till now. Democrat obama didnt sell us weapon to fight boko haram because we did not support gay/homosexual. Homosexual is another democrat agenda they are pushing into our throat.

Donald Trump is a nationalist like myself. And nationalist want the best for their country. I see myself in Donald Trump.

Liberal/democrats are fighting christianity, Trump came and put an end to it. He came to give unborn babies right to live. Democrats even want an 8 month old baby aborted.

It is easy to choose between evil and good. There are many goodies on this planet other than fake american visa lottery. Its for the greater good of the planet, not selfish mr yankee pride.
i wish i can give a brotherly hug. They dnt hav a clue why an Obama stooge who cant even recite ABCD Is a huge danger to him and family later on. You only mentioned Lybia, what of that rabid butcher Isil founder that Obama was accused to have secretly let out of prison and secretly founded to set up and lead the Sunni millitia rebel groups meant to kill or topple a predorminantly shia nation of Syria led by Assad. The Obama so called "moderate alquada'' instead transformed into Isil, carved out an islamic terror state. A beehive for sunni terrorists, jihadists and murderers. Even Alquida were a childs play to the level of terror they unleashed on Christians, moderate muslims. Obama looked the other way while Isil carrif out the genocide on christian Yazidis minority. Reducing their population from over 600k to less than 150k within 3months. We all knw the role Obama and the dem party played while islamic state west africa, slaughtered minorities in Nigeria. Not a word against the killings. TRUMP gave Buhari a stern warning to stop the killings and bombed ISIl off the face of the earth. Imagine a braindead Biden ruling while am ElRUFAI is President?

Quit ignorance. Colin Powell was never a service chief. Don't use the same standards of Nigeria to ascribe other more advanced countries. Powell was the Chair Joint Chiefs, a pseudo political cum political liaison role. The service chiefs are pure career military positions who may never see the inside of the White House unlike ours always in Aso Rock meeting with the President on bandits, herdsmen and insurgents. Can't you see Powell mouthing off politically recently. Service Chiefs don't know anything about politics neither do they care.

in other words, ur support for brainless Biden, is cos he will back Terrorist herdsmen loving APC To remain in power so BH, HERDSMEN and bandits can continue to kill nigerians. You hate Trump because he wönt support ur blood thirsty "i ashuwa you am not aware " President Buhari.

Powerless position. According to the US military hierarchy the civilian secretary of the Air force is more powerful than the uniformed chief of air staff, same applies to the army and navy. Just a symbolic position because in the US the military is subordinate to civil authority unlike Nigeria where the service chiefs are powerful
