No need to fear, just do they right thing to better the lives of Nigerians and even if a coup is attempted, the people would rise up to fight for you and reinstate you. Sadly Kwaruption no go allow una see road

Coup scare but how come he retained the Yorubas among them?
He promoted Oluyede as CDS and didn't sack Kayode Egbetokun
Oga pls shut up.
I mean you should shut it.

When Buhari was asked why he's appointing Fulani he said those are the people he can trust .

So he should wait until aboki overtake his govt
Ozuor

You mischievously avoided this.

Sacking may not be related to the coup. He won't just make them comfortable in that position and also loyality tests might be considered.

Who is now in doubt about the reality of the alleged coup plot? Make the country well for the common man. Welcome on board guys.
This is also part of the cover up to suppress the genocide label by the US. He wants to put the blame on them
Re: Tinubu Sacks Service Chiefs, Appoints New Military Heads In Sweeping Shake-Up by Breaker001: 4:00pm On Oct 24, 2025
Does this "sudden" change have anything to do with the much rumoured coup attempt?

The way President Tinubu is just sacking these days ehn
You this never satisfy people. Are you not the one crying up and down about security that the military chiefs need to be sacked? Chai!
Re: Tinubu Sacks Service Chiefs, Appoints New Military Heads In Sweeping Shake-Up by Barcalee: 4:00pm On Oct 24, 2025
With this massive replacement surely the rumoured coup attempt was real. Anyways I always knew there was a possibility of a coup BAT should make things easier for Nigerians head dey pepper people

Even a neophyte will now believe there was an attempted coup.

I personally don't know who advises this President ?

That Southern Kaduna vote that the President is expecting has been smashed into the smiderings.

PBAT will be a One Term President.

TheNobleProphet:
This new defence chief he appointed is "inefficient" because under him as army chief, so many losses have occurred!

The Oluyede of a guy na more like "quota system" appointment!

In all, I sincerely wish them success in their mission!
Lol. Technically speaking, it is a demotion for him. CDS is a ceremonial position without any direct command of any of the branches. The COAS has more power than the CDS, even though the CDS is higher in rank. this is because the CDS cannot issue a direct order to any of the service branch chiefs. The Service branch chiefs receive orders from the C_in_ C directly, hence a more powerful and lucrative position than the CDS who is more like an adviser
Re: Tinubu Sacks Service Chiefs, Appoints New Military Heads In Sweeping Shake-Up by badoh(m): 4:01pm On Oct 24, 2025
That is why as a president, never entrust key military formations in the hand of those not from your region. One region is impatient and wants power to return to them as soon as possible, another region because of their hate are doing everything possible to make sure the country burns so that power will leave the southwest.

I saw it coming with the insecurity news now bracing the headlines.

This is actually a new set. The previous set was the Gen. Lagbaja set that lost one of their formidable members.

That set lost steam, probably the demise of Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja , regarded to be the enigmatic engine room of the military field combat against insurgency, also weighed down on them and their strategy.

General Christopher Musa did his best and can go on a happy retirement. Thank you for your service to the nation. Here's wishing you all the best sir.
Here's wishing the new set a remarkably successful time in national service.
Congratulations
Is he the one from southern Kaduna?

Wow! Musa don go in the aftermath of the coup report.

Major-General E.A.P. Undiendeye will retain his position as Chief of Defence Intelligence.

Obviously, the one that nibbed the alleged coup plan in the bud.
It is people with your kind of brain I dey gbadun. Your IQ is high. 👍👍

We always knew that deep down they'll do something eventually to show us there was indeed an actual coup against the system.

Predictable stuff.

This is the confirmation that truly there is a coup attempt. Musa must go.
