In Nigeria, currently it's only the Chief of Defence Staff, that has the rank of a General (4 star) equivalent to an Admiral in the Navy or Air Chief Marshal in the Airforce as in the case of Alex Badeh (4 star general) who is the current CDS
The current COAS, CNS and CAS are all 3 star generals, Lt. Gen equivalent to Vice Admiral in the Navy and Air Marshal in the Airforce

Just like in the US, but with one exception: The American Chief of Army Staff is a 4-star 'full' General, likewise the Marine Commandant, and the Chief of Air Staff.

It takes extraordinary military achievement to be a field marshal. General Agwai was the closest army officer in Nigeria to be a field marshal because he commanded one of the largest peace keeping operations in the world in Sudan. He was appointed by the United nations and he is one of the finest army officers Nigeria has ever produced.
