Is this an indication that the rumoured coup plot mught be true after all ? Is this a eay of wreding out those perceived as hungry-eyed, compromised and corrupt military top brass?

It's not because of coup, this happens almost every time that new service chiefs are appointed. Everybody that is their senior must retire.

God bless you O

Nigerians are too pedestrian in thinking, they just swallow the scam news of military coup

In nigeria today most officers from major upwards are over enjoying

They can't even enjoy as such if it was a military person ruling

Aside politicians na military officers dey cash out for nigeria today
Na lie. The ones enjoying are the generals

Major ko! Major ni!

From the rank of LT to Colonel, you are just an average (middle class) person. Except the few that have profitable business or are in a good position/region/ or office to siphon money.

But you see general, no worry yourself those guys dey enjoy.

The junior officers should also wait for their turn, life na turn by turn

Re: Over 50 Generals To Go As Tinubu Sacks Service Chiefs by Ken4Christ: 5:40pm On Oct 25, 2025
Solution to the security challenges in Nigeria is not about changing service chiefs. Its about changing the rules of engagement and equipping them with superior weapons.

Go to their camps and smoke them out. Use the soldiers and airforce at the same time. Engage the use of drones.

When they wanted to get rid of ESN in the east, they knew what to do. But they just seem unconcerned with the bandits and herdsmen.

The overall blame goes to Mr President. He is the commander in chief of the armed forces. Its better to die fighting than to live like a coward.

Our leaders beginning from Mr President should not think he will not be affected when these terrorist eventually overwhelms the military.

My thoughts exactly. If anything it might make the situation worse. Those Genarals being retired still have a lot of influence among their junior officers.

They could still initiate and direct a coup from outside.

Anyway, the Defence intelligence unit are aware of this. Hope they can do something to check that because any coup that happens in Nigeria at the moment will be damned bloody.
My reason for opposing coups is that we can't truly predict who will lead afterward. We might end up with someone like Idi Amin, who could be a tyrant and only removed through a counter-coup.

No matter how badly the current president is, he can't serve more than two terms. After that, he leaves, just like Buhari.

People who support coups haven't lived through the military era.

The Bible enjoins we pray for our leaders, I'm not in anyway endorsing Tinubu.

The country is worst off than it was under Buhari, however military rule will only bring in more corruption and censorship.

If there’d be coup, it won’t be executed by top Generals in Nigerian Army as at today. Those Generals are being ‘fed’ well, like top politicians cheesy . So why would they want to remove the hand that feeds them😁
I understand that the generals are very ok.
But I don't care about the silly generals as long as they are not rugged field generals as Hannibal Barca,Khan,Zhukov, Benjamin Adekunle,Col Joe Achuzie.
Forget all these generals,juniors officers can run things and arrest all these useless generals

Nigerians lived better under abacha than under these so called democratic bastards.
I am old enough,I was in primary when abacha took over power and he kept the highest currency at 50 naira note until his demise.
Your obasanjo came and introduced four different denominations .
Look at these idiots making business out of terrorism when abacha told us that if insurgency last for 24 hrs,the government is complicit.
It's up to junior officers to decide if bastard politicians and corrupt military brass will continue trading in their blood

He was the only one from his set who was CAS.
Those in Lagbajas set were the ones who just got retired.
Like I said he was was promoted when Lagbaja died so he could hold sit as the CAS right now his set are the ones appointment as Chief of Air Staff and Chief or Naval Staff but he is already ahead because he got promoted last year when he became CAS making him the most senior in his set
