Gen Yusuf Appointed New Guards Brigade Commander by Nobody: 8:55am On Jul 23, 2015

The Nigerian army has appointed Brigadier General Musa Yusuf to take over the elite Guard’s Brigade in Abuja from Brigadier General Anthony Omozoje who was redeployed to command the 14th Brigade in Ohafia, Abia State.

At a handing over ceremony yesterday in Abuja, the new commandant of the Guard’s Brigade, General Yusuf stated his commitment to ensuring the safety of President Muhammadu Buhari and his family.

“Well for now we are prepared to face all the challenges, we know the major challenges in the country,” General Yusuf said, adding that “on the issues of insurgency in and around Abuja, there are arrangements in place to make sure the city is secured.”

Speaking earlier, the out-gone commander of the Brigade, Brigadier General Omozoje said there was never a dull moment in the brigade, as the task is very demanding which requires a lot of commitment, discipline and sacrifice.

Nice one. However, I have noticed that Buhari has not departed from the usual pattern of appointment that characterized previous governments in Nigeria. They all appointed their tribal men to key military positions. Am looking forward to a time when a Yoruba President will appoint an Igbo man as Chief of Army Staff and an Igbo President will appoint an Hausa man the Commandant of Guards Brigade. It is only then we can say that we have selfless leaders and one country.

General Yusuf stated his commitment to ensuring the safety of President Muhammadu Buhari and his family.

PMB can't trust any igbo officer with securing his life and that of his family. For the wailing wailers who will soon wail that another northerner has taken over
