Bro I am telling you in Nigeria service chiefs take orders directly from the presidency no where else , no CDS in Nigeria can give order to COAS ..I am telling you from experience not beer parlour talk

Experience ke! There is absolutely nothing that I don't know about the Nigerian miltary. It seems you are not getting my point. Service Chiefs are tatitcal commanders they are in charge of there respective commands. Buratai does not need permission to conduct an operation or CAS does not need permission to bomb terrorist. But all are coordinated by CDS. Or are telling me that they are assuming with CDS. Guy CDS can issue 252 on COAS if he assumed with him.

There is difference between seniority and power of command. CDS is and will always be superior and can dish out orders to ant service chief. In analogy it's like comparing a Dean of faculty to HOD of a department. The HOD coordinates at departmental level autonomously. Have ever seen a security meeting without the CDS ?

You're only being clever by half. The CDS is a ceremonial nonentity. Can he control troops? No.

The Chief of Army Staff is the real deal. Don't get it twisted.

Shut up Jonathan was different kind of leader and besides Badeh was state house asset because of his long service in PAF and his penchant to play kitchen cabinet politics

All those harping on chief of defence staff,you all know its more or less ceremonial but you all want to feel good that you are something in the scheme of things when in fact the people in charge don't give a Bleep about you.

FYI information,when it comes to soldiery, the real deal is the army followed by air force.

Trash. The Army, the Navy and the Airforce are equally important.

To all this civilians here arguing over who is who do your research before you spew trash, The Chief of Defence Staff is the highest ranking military officer of the Nigerian Armed Forces. It is occupied by the most senior commissioned officer appointed by the President of Nigeria. The position was established for the first time under Nigeria's 1979 constitution.

The Chief of Defence Staff reports to the commander-in-Chief with administrative supervision of the Honourable Minister of Defence. It is the duty and responsibility of the CDS to formulate and execute policies, programmes towards the highest attainment of National Security and operational competence of the Armed Forces namely; the Army, Navy and Air Force.

The CDS is assisted by the other Service Chiefs:

Chief of Army Staff
Chief of Naval Staff
Chief of the Air Staff

ContractKiller:
The Chief of Defense Staff is appointed by the President and reports directly to the Minister of Defense. He is nothing more than an errand boy for the President and the Minister of Defense.

among the three armed forces,which is more likely to bring a change of lets say,of government.
which of them is more likely to bring this insurgency to an end assuming the government is serious?
how many wars has been worn on water? and you can't say you have worn a war if there are no troops(army) on ground.

"FYI information,when it comes to soldiery, the real deal is the army followed by air force.".

You cannot win a war without any of them Navy, Airforce and Army ok.
