Appointment of service chiefs is a discretionary and doesn't require the assent of National Assembly. The president is commander in chief of the Armed Forces and can appoint his representatives in the various arms of the military.
Updated All you ranting in my mention on this ought to realize that the 1999 constitution is highly flawed. Requiring the president to present to Senate nominees for the position of Service Chiefs is highly flawed. The Senate have little knowledge as to why and how the Service Chiefs are appointed. For example, what happens if the Senate rejects the Service Chiefs' nominated? What would be their reason for rejecting them and or how would they propose replacements? These are salient areas the Senate cannot working on.
You don't have to rain insults to make your comment if you're intelligent and want to enage in intelligent discourse.
dre11: Atiku’s wife Jennifer relocates as ex-VP takes Moroccan fourth wife, welcomes new son
The relationship was kept entirely from the public, going under public radar even as Mr. Abubakar sought the presidency against Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.
Nice one by the Foreign Affairs ministry. Its not Sharia but rather what we call attitudinal change. Our attitude must change towards some of this things for us to gradually be a better country. Dress codes also help separate potential hoodlums from responsible people.
Rebuilt bawo ....this is more like re-plastering and using aluminum cladding to cover the surface

Abdulazeez99: US President Donald Trump’s daughter Tiffany Trump has received a 13-carat emerald-cut diamond engagement ring from her Nigerian-Lebanese boyfriend Michael Boulos, Igbere TV reports.
The 27-year-old announced her engagement on Tuesday, her father’s last full day at the White House.
In a Twitter post, the Georgetown Law graduate described the engagement as her most special White House memory, while paying tribute to her fiancé, whom she has been dating for just over two years.
Boulos, 23, proposed to the outgoing first daughter with a 13-carat emerald-cut diamond from Dubai that is believed to be worth up to $1.2 million.
In exclusive pictures obtained by DailyMail.com, Tiffany is seen proudly showing off the stunning ring, which was designed by New York-based jeweler and diamond dealer Samer Halimeh.
Boulos, who is heir to the multi-billion dollar Nigerian conglomerate Boulos Enterprises, flew to Dubai with Halimeh to choose the ring, which he selected and purchased in the city.
Tiffany’s father will end his tumultuous single term as US president on Wednesday.
ebukajay184: After the white pigeons released by President Buhari and some Nigerian Governors refused to fly on the 2021 Armed Forces Remembrance Day, Daddy Freeze released his white pigeons and they flew, IgbereTV reports.
He shared the video on his Instagram handle with the caption:
Liberate your people first Governor that places its people at risk of COVID19 through denial wants to lead 200 million people astray. God will not let you become our version of Trump
Exactly... I wonder if the fools understand the implications
Macphenson: Are these people thinking at all? That means automatically they are Nigerian citizens and can easily obtainnour passport and driver's license.
It's just like a foreigner entering USA and automatically having a social security number. Do they really undertsand the implications what they ordered?
Stop trying to guilty trip people. If you can't migrate, allow those who want to, to do so.
Not everyone wants to be listed in Forbes or be a billionaire. Most people just want peace of mind and security dass all
Princewill1: The high successes recorded by dubious politicians, fraudulent pastors and ponzi scheme operators in Nigeria are living proofs that Nigerians can be so gullible. We can easily be deceived. The astronomical hype on Canada is the latest deceit in town. Here are things you need to know before immigrating.
1. The list of richest Nigerians is filled with Nigerians living at home. You're more likely to make it into Forbes if you live in Nigeria. At least that's what the stat shows, whether people making into Forbes in Nigeria are engaging in corrupt practices is a story for another day. The odds of becoming a dollar billionaire favours those at home . No Diaspora Nigerian has ever made it into Forbes billionaire list.
2. There are more money to be made in a developing economy than in a developed economy. That's why as you're rushing out of the country, Lebanese, Indians and Chinese are rushing in. Only few will understand. You're sitting on the biggest market in Africa yet you haven't realize this but the Lebanese and the Indians knew this.
3. If you are the type who don't fancy working for others, it's much more easier to own a business in Nigeria than in Canada/US. Western countries were set up for the 99% populace to work for 1% elites. Their education systems were designed to produce workforce for the rat race. Not to create employers of labour.
4. It's stupidity to resign from a high-paying job in Nigeria in a bid to relocate to Canada/US. Your eyes will get clear up when you start facing the hard realities in Canada. Those who had made this mistake in the past are ashamed to come on social media to talk about it. The ones talking on Twitter are 'freshers' who just arrived.
5. If you want to secure 2nd passport for your kids, you don't necessarily need to immigrate to achieve this. There are other ways, one method is overseas child birth.
6. You're 5x more likely to be shot and rubbed in New York than in Lagos. Poor neighborhoods all over the world has more crime rates. The thing is, when you finally made it in Nigeria,you can move to high brow areas with lesser crime.
7. Nigerians are spending up to 8millions ($21k) and above to immigrate to Canada/US whereas an average canadian or American citizen can't boast of $10k in their bank A/C's. They live pay check to pay check.
8. Some Nigerians claims that they ain't relocating because of the money but because of good infrastructure, good health care system, value for their money etc. That's a lie! 98% of Nigerians who're eager to travel out are relocating because of economic reasons. There are good infrastructure, good health care system and value for money in countries like Kuwait, Russia, Brazil, South Korea, Chile etc but Nigerians ain't trooping there, indicating that their preference for Canada/US is purely based on economic reasons.
9. It's cheaper to live in Nigeria. Canada/US promises higher minimum wage but the system will still take it away from you. It's like giving you with one hand and taking from you with another. $2k (N760k) will pay for your one year rent of 2 bedrooms apartment in a good location in Nigeria but same amount will only fetch you one month rent of a match box apartment in Canada/US.
10. This is not to stop you from traveling out but to inform you on the true realities. Economic immigration should be left for lower or working class who're struggling or to young lads who wants to school abroad and thereafter further their career overseas. Not to deceive Nigerians already earning good in corporate offices in Nigeria to resign and relocate where they will be employed as security guards or to deceive business owners who's businesses are thriving in Nigeria to close down business and relocate. Don't let them deceive you with the hype. Money don't grow on trees anywhere in the world.
I did mine same time at Alausa, Ikeja and I got it same year. It expired 2019. Forget about the card itself for now cos they're not printing new ones. Rather download the NIMC mobile app from the app store or Play store and follow the prompt to get a virtual ID.

Despirado121: Big Brother Naija 2020 winner Laycon has been conferred with the chieftaincy title of Akeweje Odo of Ipokia Kingdom in Ogun State, Igbere TV reports.
The 27-year-old received the title from the Onipokia of Ipokia Oba Yisa Olaniyan at the 2021 Opo Day celebration held at the District High School, Ipokia on Sunday (January 3).
Your NIN is not on the card but rather the temporary slip issued to you on successful registration at NIMC or its agents offices.
The number on the card is the card PAN issued by Master Card for prepaid function.
If you have a GTBank account, it's most likely captured on your account profile. Pls check there.
Sijo01: I was about creating a thread on this but decided to use google search before doing so.
@bigtt76 thanks for the enlightenment.
My card expired in May 2020. With what you explained above, I don't think renewing it is an option for now.
Didn't even know my NIN is not on the card till now. I actually thought the boldly written16 digit is my NIN.
You mentioned above that the NIN is not displayed on the card itself but embedded in it. How do I locate this please? I want to compare with what MTN gave me before I proceed with the linking.
BrainBright: pardon my grammatical and typo error.
I completed my NYSC , March last year, got a job with with a company outside the country that pays 60k per month, though I work from home which allows me to go about other daily Businesses . After the lockdown I got a farm land of about 2 and 1/2 acres of land and planted cashew and it's developing already ( I paid labourer for everything since the nature of my health doesn't permit me to do hectic/ stressful work). I have been able to save 300k already because I eat at home. This year I intended to to get a shop near one of the fed. Polytechnic so I can be making photocopy and online registration for them just to augment my monthly earning, but I came across a thread here on nairaland some weeks back and now I'm considering to go for training and open a chemist or a retailer pharmacy, I was told starting a pharmacy will require like 2million upward, I'm considering of saving through the training period and getting loans to start the pharmacy, and 4 years time too the cashew should be able to give returns of 1-5 million per annum.
"PLEASE ADVICE ME AS A YOUNGER ONE", I want something that will still sustain me financially even when I start having my own family. I'm 29 already.
✓ should I go for the photocopy or the retailer pharmacy? ✓ is there any other good business idea you can suggest? ( Nature of my health can't do hectic/ stressful work) ✓If you have any experience on chemist/pharmacy please advise me.
Please don't try to force him to stop, lest he becomes violent. Speak nicely to him and ensure he's well fed and clothed.
Emperormartin: Compliments of the season to all nairalanders...
Please I noticed a disturbing scenario playing in my house as I came back for xmas... My 67yr old dad use to smoke weed (Igbo) in our sitting room.
When we were younger, he use to smoke outside and occasionally smokes around the house especially late in the night or in the wee hours.
As a matter of fact I'm 30yrs and I have another younger brother who's 27yrs then my sister who's the youngest. But Non of us smoke weed or have toed in his line... My mother has tried in that aspect not to raise us like that!!!
I brought this issue here because I need help on how to make my aging dad DESIST from that lifestyle... It breaks my heart seeing him popping smoke like that and it's degrading when we have visitors in the house... And secondly I'm wary of his health!!!
The broke protocol and red carpets to save his life because he was one of them. If it were the ordinary citizens who gives a f@ck yet we fight and kill ourselves to vote them in
About time to hold them all accountable while in office
