Basically decapitating an Army that's currently fighting serious wars in different fronts of extremely well trained senior Army officers, just because he wants to put a man who will help him rig the coming elections! This man is unbelievable..

Before he died, the last Chief of Army staff talked about reducing the qualifications needed to be recruited into the army because of low enrollment! He also called for retired soldiers to be ready to be called back into action! Essentially, what it means is that the army is running short on manpower and needs help...

So what did a queer Commander In Chief do afterwards? Fire more Generals because he needs his "Choice Chief of Army staff"! You know what? Buhari is not yet done,.. by the time he's done dealing with this country, if you guys see "nkîta", you will call it "mpûta"..


Mr Yahaya has held several appointments including Staff, Instructional and Command.

Notable among the appointments held by the new COAS are Garrison Commander Headquarters Guards Brigade, Directing Staff at the Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC), Deputy Director Army Headquarters Department of Military Secretary, Deputy Director Army Research and Development and the Chief of Staff, Headquarters Joint Task Force Operation Pulo Shield.

He also served as the Principal General Staff Officer (PGSO) to the Honourable Minister of Defence, the Commander, Headquarters 4 Brigade and 29 Task Force Brigade (Operation Zaman Lafiya).



He was also Director Manpower at the Army Headquarters, Military Secretary, Army Headquarters and General Officer Commanding (GOC) 1 Division of the Nigerian Army.

Until his appointment as the COAS, Mr Yahaya was the Theatre Commander Operation HADIN KAI, responsible for Counter Terrorism and Counter Insurgency operations in North East Nigeria.


The new COAS is a proud holder of several honours and awards, some of which include, Forces Service Star, Meritorious Service Star, Distinguished Service Star, Grand Service Star, Passed staff course (Dagger), National Defence Course (Chile), Economic Community of West Africa State Monitoring Group Medal, Command Medal, Field Command Medal, General Operations Medal, Silver Jubilee Medal and Golden Jubilee Medal.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/464160-profile-nigerias-new-chief-of-army-staff-faruk-yahaya.html

If you actually go through the service and operational command records of the officers that SR listed, I can assure you that they are mostly subpar to the new COAS's record.

To say the man lacks experience is pure ignorance and lack of depth because he's not only served across every corner of the military and engaged in battlefield operations, he has tons of service medals and awards to show for his service and bravery.

He was the commander of Operation Zaman Lafiya fighting terrorists in the NW, now Lafiya Dole so what rubbish are you and BH mouthpiece SR talking about experience?

When was the last time any of the officers SR listed commanded any anti-terrorists operations or command in the NE?

The fact that you hate the president and Nigeria doesn't mean you must fall for ignorant and yellow journalism anti-government rubbish litter all over the internet.

General Officer Commanding (GOC) 1 Division of the Nigerian Army.

The man commanded the Army's premier command, 1st Division so to say he is subpar is pure lunacy.

How many of the officers listed commanded anything near 1st Division or actually commanded battlefield operations in the NE?


The man is exceptionally qualified.

Johnson Bamidele Olawumi is a Brigadier-General of the Nigerian army and former Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps. Prior to his appointment as the Acting Commandant Nigerian Army School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, he was the Director-General of the Nationa

https://peoplepill.com/people/johnson-bamidele-olawumi



SR listed Maj General J. O. Olawumi as one of the superior officers PMB bypassed, but look at his record, no battlefield or anti-terrorist experience, never fought or commanded anything on or near the battlefield.

To say the director of the NYSC is more experienced than the new COAS with more and better command experience and even battlefield experience is madness.

This is how SR miseducation and misinform ignorant people if they are going to make comparisons or pass any judgement about experience, they should have published their records for us to compare.

SR is getting dumb and dumber by the second.

Can you show the reading public anything that this government has done that you have not vociferously defended, whether good or bad?
Do you think that this type of unbridled display of zombiesm makes you a patriot by any stretch? Two classes of senior military officers are about to weeded out just to announce this guy and inspite of the obvious immense effect on command and control, you are already here, as usual, desperately trying to sell dog poo as candy?

The thing is whenever a southerner becomes the president in Nigeria, he will be feeling intimidated and the fear of military coup will make him to start appointing the quota men.

Everyone be crying wolf... How many of you are ready to be in the military. You no dey there you dey ask how dem take share am. The northern supremacy in the army will continue because it comes more natural to them as group of people. Military is unpopular in the southwest for instance and you won't see the southwest care if the north keeps getting the COAS or not because naturally it's not something we really excel at. If na book now we go complain. So enough of the rants. They are the majority in the army and we keep having their way unless another tribe starts to dominate which is highly unlikely.

Ignorant ipob, the topic is about SR's worthless and misguided rubbish about the new COAS, not about defending any government and if you have personal issues with the government, that is your own headache and personal issues, not mine.

If you have facts to counter my views with or if you think other officers are better with better service records than the new COAS, show us their records and let us compare or just keep quiet.

Learn how to read and comprehend and stop bothering me with your ipobian terrorist rants.

When you weaken the ranks and files of the armed forces and civil services with this kind of appointments base on religious and tribal sentiment, and not merit and seniority,you have succesfully killed all aspirations for efficiency,commitment,patrotism and dedication to duty in nations workforce,with the resultant effect of sleezing,corruption,insecurity, economic collaps,break down of law and order and failure of governance as we'r seeing today in Nigeria,consequences of having a bigot in power,Nigeria is indeed in trouble.

It's his choice abeg.. Make dem retire

It's not bad . Actually, everyone has their favourites and would push up narratives to favour their candidates.

The CDS is 34rc and late COAS from 35rc. 6 months difference as NDA wasn't degree awarding then. It became degree awarding from 36rc. 34rc and 35rc will clock 35 years of service this year. If Attahiru had not died, they would also have been like their predecessors; Olonisakin and co who stayed beyond 35 years of service. Normally, it is best for a service chief to serve his tenure within the 35 years of service.

The new COAS is 37rc and will clock 35 years of service in 2023, same year a new President would come in and change them. This allows for normal career progression for everyone. Also, unlike secondary school, once your junior is appointed as head in the military, you have to retire. Staying means obeying his every command and him having the authority to lock you up if needed. The promotion in rank finalises his authority over his mates who might be his senior in terms of army number. Any mate of his that is dissatisfied will also put in paper.

The goon is working very hard to destroy the army which gave him the head start when he was not even qualified to don military uniform. Please expatriate on NDA when it was 18 to 30 months and now 4 years. I guess there is not much difference between 6 months for none degree awarding and 12 month for degree awarding NDA.
