PDPGuy:My Brother, I think Interior is better that domiciling it in MoJ. The MoJ is too powerful already in Nigeria settings. Domiciling the Police force in the ministry is more like swelling the powers of the ministry. I think it being in Interior is cool. 1 Like |

PDPGuy:no,no when i use the word report i mean command,the Ag president can only command the service chiefs with senate backing...theoretical law (authority) and fiscal law (authority) are very different... they are some stipulations to be fulfilled if the Ag. president wishes to take full control of the Armed forces. |

stanley59:Yes, I believe the NASS ought to be the final authority with regard to the deployment of Nigeria troops in war zones. But, sections 145 and 145 of the constitution (as amended), invests the full powers of the president onto the Acting president. So, the Acting president also becomes the C-in-C, albeit for a short period. The 'restrictions' on the functions of the AP are all political in nature: the Acting president, with a belief that the substantive president would send another letter notifying the NASS about his/her readiness to resume the office of president, wouldn't want to make drastic changes to either govt policy or the organization of government. Thus, he has to tread carefully lest he be accused of trying to overthrow his boss. 1 Like |

PDPGuy:we ain't talking about the military chain of command...which btw i have already pointed out rather vaguely if you'd agree ... please kindly check who gives the final report to the US president on intelligence every working day, who is referred to the chief of national and central intelligence, see if it's the same person. |

It answers to the President and is part of the Presidential security team what do you mean you doubt I know the meaning of internal ops..Harbin Kunama is what? Operation Zaman lafiya is what?

Na wa ooo... wish i saw this on time.. COAS will salute the CDS any time.. any day.. If COAS tells you to report to Abuja and you respond that CDS needs you in Kano, he looks for another person ASAP. COAS is always in the news cos the army is involved in daily operations. 5 Likes |

bedspread:the reason cannot be far fetched. in nigeria the army is seemed to be stronger than the air force and navy unlike in the militarily powerful nations. consider countries like usa, russia, china, uk israel which have stronger and more sophisticated air power are not heavily relied on ground troop and not more important. 1 Like |

Chief of defence is superior to chief of army, chief of air force, and chief of navy.he is the highest ranking officer in the nigerian military institution. Chief of army can only control the army which is just a branch of the nation's military institution. Unlike the chief of defence that coordinates all the branches of the military in their administrative and defence assignments. Chief of army is equivalent of the chiefs of air staff and naval staff. In nigeria we put more premium on the army above the remaining two because it is more stronger in terms of number and weapon and more engaged with the civilians and has responsible for coup plotting. President can appoint anyone from either army, air force or navy as chief of defence to coordinate all the three arms of the military. 2 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista: False assumption. He who control the money and resources of the armed forces is actually in control. The service chiefs brief the CDS and Defense Minister. It is the defense minister that briefs the C-in-C. 2 Likes |

BlackMbakara1: There is nothing like strategically in this picture. CDS is the superior officer and one rank above COAS. COAS can easily be overruled by CDS with or without the support of the Defense Minister. The hierarchy is C-in-C, Defense Minister, CDS and then service chiefs. 2 Likes |
