Why do Nigerian Military Chiefs carry walking sticks, specially whenever they are visiting the troops or inspecting projects? Is this like a culture in the military? Can someone educate me.

Military Chief from the US and the UK, on the other hand, do not carry walking sticks whenever they are visiting the troops.

Not a culture, senility is their problem. Instead of retiring and go back to their family they still want to stay and milk all the money.

Senility? I have a strong feeling that there is something more deeply rooted. Maybe a part of their uniform. I may be wrong, though.

Was never part of their uniform. During the times of Abacha and co. Dem no Dey use this rubbish. I’m sure it started only in the 2010s

And it’s not a walking stick per say. It can be use as a temporary stool, like the owner can assemble it and there’s something he can sit down on . Take a look at the walking stick very well. Look at the top and see what I’m saying
