CDS oversees the functions of all other chief of staff (Army, Navy nd Airforce etc), in other words they report to him CDS. But Nigeria being who she is......., anything goes 1 Like |

Ideally it should be the chief of defense staff (CDS), but considering our history of military incursion in politics, the office of the chief of army staff COAS has turned out to be the most favoured/cherished by the various C in Cs. These things largely depends on the disposition of the C in C. Obasanjo as a military man was very confident in himself and so did not bother much about who was COAS, OR CDS. Rather he appointed his long time friend and collegue TY danjuma as minister of defence, in those days the military was firmly under the control of the ministry of defense, understandable so, perhaps many of the army chiefs and generals at the time were perhaps just entering NDA when TY Danjuma, ObJ were already head of state and CDS respectively. Under Gej Alex badeh as CDS was far more visible and more influential than Lt Minimah even though Minimah was Ijaw, whereas when Oluseyi Petirin was CDS Ihijirika as COAS was more visible and influential. In the current dispensation Buratai is more influential and visible than Olonishakin(CDS). Under Yardua Lt Gen Danbazau(COAS) was more visible/powerful than Paul Dike the then CDS. Nigeria is a very disjointed country without specific structures, our strength is mainly in nepotism and anyhowness. 7 Likes 1 Share |

badoh:chief off defence staff is superior but not powerful (when he is not an army ) but where the cds is an army he is both powerful and superior .Rem Abdulsalami abubakar was the cds before abacha died and he was more powerful than Bamaiyi who was the chief off army staff 3 Likes |

NNAMDIII: He was talking about the most senior military officer in the USA which is the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff which he mistook for the civilian Secretary of Defense. I doubt of the minister of defence in Nigeria wields more power than CDS or COAS. For one he's just a civilian administrator 2 Likes |

ikdaddy01:He was not CDS at that time. Rather, he was CGS (chief of general staff) at that time, which is same as vice president in d democratic setting. In d democratic setting, does a vice president have power to command troops. No! It's cos d VP is not a C-in-C. |

The chief of army staff is under the chief of defence staff in hierarchy and so he's responsible for all the activities under the army and he has more responsibilities than the chief of defence staff, you don't expect the chief of defence staff to do the work of chief of army staff, the chief of defence staff coordinates the activities of all the other chief. 2 Likes |
