Olamadueke:
The Chief of Air staff and The Chief of Defense Staff are from southern part of Nigeria while, The Chief of Naval staff is from the North, so Chief of Army staff would be reserved for someone in the North, even if the top 10 highest ranking officers are from the south.

A MAJOR GENERAL OMO MEN TO RETIRE PLENTI

fergie001:

Annoying no be small.

garfield1:


You are missing the point.all the major generals are not equal na.some senior others just like among supreme court judges,odili senior agim.

garfield1:
How na

Oshilolo:

There is something called federal character. This country is not for the north. We should embrace full federalism. Stop being tribalistic

garfield1:


Adeosun and buratai were same rank so they had to retire together

fk001:


Why annoying?

He only appoint who he can trust, just like Gej appointed Ihejirika and Minimah.

With the coup that is happening in Myanmar, Mali, Chad, etc you don't expect him to appoint someone that can turn against him.

GBAMSOLUTELY!
End of thread!
We have learnt not to bother ourselves anymore about some nonentities.
As some of us have said, it is peace all around Nigeria that we want, even if only one village will be producing the People to bring peace to this nation. So be it.

abbaashiru:
I don't agree there was ever a time Nigeria had a 100% northern service chiefs. Obasanjo had Gen. Alex Ogomudia. Jonathan had Gen. Adrew Azazi. Buhari had Admiral Ikot Ibas...

fredoooooo:
Me just dey laugh at Ohaneze, they should take theirs from Nnamdi Kanub

CONGRATULATIONS and welcome on board Major General Yahaya.
Ending insurgency/violence all across our darling country is what must be achieved.
May God Almighty give you the direction as you continue this war to tackle all terrorist organizations in Nigeria.
Nigeria will win this war.
Peace shall reign in our darling nation.
God bless Nigeria.

We Rise!

mzBEAM:
A big shame on Southerners.




Unintelligent quota system mallams running the affairs of Zoogeria

tobadex1:
Why only northerners? South east, south west are they not part of Nigeria again

gawu1:

Where in the appointment of the service Chiefs has he violated the federal character principles?
The new Chief of Army is from Zamfara, north west
The Navy chief is from Adamawa, North east
The Air Force Chief is from South West
The Defense staff is from, Delta, South south.
That's to say two northern extraction and two southern extraction.
So where has he gone wrong? Or must Igbo man be there before the character is said to be complete? We have 400 language/ethnic group Nigeria.

hisgrace090:
As expected by all!

Miyetti allah emboldened the more.
With buhari once his people are satisfied, others can die.

tobadex1:
Why only northerners? South east, south west are they not part of Nigeria again

Julianaa:
Our Brothers from the East will not sleep well today

They will be like:A Northerner again?

Modified:
Incase you don't know, Buhari only appoint people he can trust and control, in those sensitive positions
So stop quoting me with trash

azikiweironsi:

Leave them. Sebi he cannot be on the seat forever. I pray his people will not become endangered species because with the hatred he has planted in the mind of the people. May God help the Fulanis.

gurunlocker:


I'm talking about Buhari, he has never had 100% northerner service chiefs?

ceede2:
What is this one staying? if Buharia have his way all the governor down to commissioner's will be Northerns

Sedonxavi:
Buhari nepotism should be a great lesson to people in southern part of Nigeria if we ready learn. No way of becoming a president in Nigerian if you are rejected in SW and one other region in South. I hope we do not commit another mistake again by given power to Another Fulani.
Summary: Never allow Fulani to lead Nigeria again otherwise we'll be suppressed the way all Hausa in the not were suppressed

Lazynigerian1:
While we congratulate the new guy, let us remind him that we have several challenges in the country...bandits and boko in the North, and secessionist violence in the East and the ongoing herdsmen crisis.

These crisis will demand his full and total attention

As he takes office, Shekau is dead, but the monsters around him are still alive. New issues arise in the South East, and banditry is threatening the peace of this country

I wish him well, and hope he does a good job. Better than his predecessors. To quote/parphrase Robert Mugabe, when he was meeting with the chief of his intelligence on day one of his time in power...don't expect Nigerians to applaud your failures.

P.S Our polticians too should also sit up. Most of the time, the work that should be done by them is being done by the Army

PS2: I Hope that the special forces unit gets more funding and training and strenghtening.
