It is expected that some generals will retire when a new coas is comes to office.

It is just military process.

The present COAS is from Course 37, born on 5th of January 1966 and he is from zamfara state.

The former COAS is from course 36, all his mate in 36 will have to retire.

If you scroll through comments, you would see that very few understand this basic policy of military appointments.

So idiots are already spewing trash and liking their own stupidity.

WHAT ABOUT The .CDS.he must go on retirement too abi

Xscape1993:
What has Mr President not done in this country? A man that made a retired army officer as Controller General of Customs. I doubt if that man in Aso Rock is indeed Buhari! I have not seen or witnessed all these happenings in Nigeria before ooo!

Why is this so? What are the reasons for this tradition? I would appreciate it if you can explain further to civilians like me. I'm really curious to know.

Is the retired army officer heading the Customs performing or not? This is the issue. All else is non-issue, to be charitable; or nonsense, to be blunt!

LOST IN NIGERIA?

If you ever get lost in Lagos, just find your way to Oshodi, Berger, Ojota, Iddo or Jibowu, from these places, you can even get a bus going to Jerusalem.

In Ibadan find a bus to Iwo Road. From there, choose anywhere you are going on earth.

In Kaduna, just ask of Central Market (Kazuwa/Kasuwa - depending on your tongue), from there, you can take a bus to Jamaica.

In Abuja, find your way to Berger Roundabout, from there, ask for anywhere on earth. You will get a bus going there.

In Onitsha, just go to Upper Iweka (pronounced as Oppy Iweka). You can even get a bus directly to Singapore.

optimistfeel:
Forceful Retirement!!! Why forcing them to retire? Ok because they don't want them to be the COAS ok oooo....Buhari and his administrations ur days are numbered!!!

Its standard Military tradition! They cannot serve under their Junior, hence the reason why they have to retire!

alsudan:
Course 35 and 36 are gone, course 37 to be made redundant in offices where they only take tea and read newspapers.

Buhari well done. see where your Nepotism has led us.

Lol

To be fair, I'm not sure any president has ever appointed the most senior army officer as COAS.

Military rank is by senority according to course. The junior salutes the senior. As you get to the pinnacle of your career, the size of top officers starts to shrink.

Every potential commissioned officer are admitted to the Military university ( NDA) by course. Course is like academic year.

For instance, a person who is in course 7 is a junior student when compared to someone who is in course 6.

Remember that a junior salutes a senior( course 7 salutes a course 6)

If the president overlooks course 6 and choose his army head from course 7, every body in course 6 will have to retire to allow the junior rule so that he can carry out his functions without fear and intimidation from his seniors.
