People like you are the problem of Nigeria. You didnt read the news yet you welcomed the development. Because if you do you will discover a brigadier general is being promoted to head nigerian high commission in egypt. This government is mad but i dont know why. e ni ori yoo o di ile.

Really? …..Like are you OK?? What has military attaché got to do with heading an embassy??

I now have a General so no shit hence forth.

Probably a general problem. I sent a colleague of mine money since yesterday, he's yet to receive it.

they keep promoting but none of them retiring.
numerous generals, both brigadiers and majors. still no tactical, no intelligence we can't defeat subdue insurgence and terrorist cell.

Pls wot is the Arabic word written under the badge?

More convoys to intimidate the civilians

Upgrade your Resumé to look beautiful and professional for a token.

The military armed robbers.
The greatest tragedy befell Nigeria was the greedy generals.

One Nigeria became a mess.

Pls wot is the Arabic word written under the badge?

"Victory is from Allah only" They claim the inscription is "Aljami'' and not Arabic. Whatever Ajami means,Buhari should know.

SilentRiddles:
"lucky to be promoted" ?

Who writes these releases? Top level promotion in an institution as important as the national army was in part a process of "luck"?

Did they define and analyse the meaning of "luck" in a standard dictionary? Or they just decided to throw it in there cos Nigerians like to use the word a lot?

Let promoted generals, their families and true friends use the word in private, but in official documents, that word is wrong and communicates a wrong message about the process. It could mean some of the promoted generals just got "lucky" and may in truth not be deserving of the upgrade.

By the way, when will this Arabic inscription be corrected? I don't expect the religious/ethnic bigot currently there to do anything, but I know someday soon, the right thing will be done.

Thank you very much. You hit the nail on the head. I thought I was the only one that saw that gaffe. Col. Musa Sagir is known for his very bad English in his press releases. Makes me wonder if he's the best the Nigerian Army could find for such a sensitive position. Quota system stuff no doubt. I shudder to think how a foreign national or foreign military personnel reading this press release would think. I can just see him saying "so these Nigerian army generals are products of mere luck " . It denigrates and reduces in value the quality and ambience of our military generals. Already, all I'm thinking in my head is " lucky generals" ...not competent or well trained generals.. It's pure BS.

Mandesz:
Nigeria has been 'northernalised' since 1966. The north own the military, the police and other forces. If the north decided to secede today, they will do without stress or war. Assuming they own the oil like the south- south, secession would av happened a.long time ago.

The south- west never wise up, What happened to mko abiola.can't happened to a northerner.

Very useful and senseless comment.

Just congratulations would have been more meaning

I no know sey we plenty, I had to check again if it was the reporter that included his own words or part of the press release.
Let's kukuma say undeserving lucky generals

No, it's targeted at reducing the crime rates in the East.

MM Bunza, Nigerian Military School Zaria,

What's a Major Gen doing in NMS? Or are they saying he'll be the Commandant? Normally that post is reserved for Col or Brig Gen.

ARABIC inscription on our Army Badge
Anyone notice it?

Congrats to them. Wish to get promoted someday in my place of work.

Patiently waiting for Southern list
This northern list

Congratulations AO Arogbofa
