The new COAS performance was woeful in the North East. There are far more competent officers, officers that perform better than him in the North East. 6 Likes 1 Share |

It is sad we have to see some brilliant officers go. All officers ranking above the new service chiefs will be retired. People like Gen. Lamidi Adeosun. We will also miss the immediate past CAS. I just hope that their services can be employed by the office of the NSA. They are too valuable and experienced to let go like that. ![]() Then I also hope Irabor and Attahiru will pardon Gen. Adeniyi. The challenges faced by the new service chiefs while they were in the northeast is their best assets to Nigeria. They will be able to provide solutions to these challenges. 6 Likes |

ugo4u: Sadiq Abubakar is the best CAS we've had since the creation of Nigeria. The man totally reformed our Air Force, made it professional and modern. In terms of PR, the Air Force cleaned up the image of the military in many ways than once. I wish they can keep him on as a consultant. Burutai also tried his best to build a well armed army, he drove indigenous industrialization, and worked towards building a self sufficient army. However in terms of training, troop rotation and generally professionalism of the force, he failed. The incoming COAS should build on his legacy, also work hard on structuring a professional army, well equipped with proper training and with a sound PR structure. The Navy Chief CNS IBAS also tried to build a well equipped navy. The Navy has continued a legacy of professionalism right from the GEJ era, but in PR they were lacking and only picked up late. There were a number of high profile successes under him, including indigenization, fleet recapitalization, rescue of ships at sea, piracy went down but the recent kidnapping of 15 Turkish sailors off the coast of Nigeria and the high rate of insecurity in the Bonny waterways puts a dent on his achievements. The CDS did not do well, up until recently, the army and air force had different separate wars each Chief of service was fighting. While the army was going right, the air force would be going left. Poor coordination from the office of the CDS. 9 Likes |

Whyem15: Even though Adeniyi meant well with his video, he should still be punished. For the following reasons; - He was the GOC 7 division, he needed to show leadership, he did not. That video was demoralizing, he was taking troops in battle, nobody needs a simp in a life and death situation. - He recorded and distributed a video in an unsafe, very unprofessional manner. - The video showed operational areas - The video, a classified material leaked to the general public. - It was PR coup for Boko-Haram, ISWAP and the rest of the terrorist bandwagon. 3 Likes |

I pray that Major-General I. Attahiru performs well, when he was the theatre commander operation lafiya dole in 2017 he didn't last long, due to his bad performance. Taking on the mantle of the NA when there is a lot of security challenges across the country his not an easy job. I pray that Maj Gen Leo Irabor uses his experience has a former theatre commander to tackle insurgency in the North East. Best of luck to the incoming chiefs ! https://www.thecable.ng/army-removes-operation-lafiya-dole-theatre-commander/amp 3 Likes |

bidexiii: Well, the new CAS is coming in at a time when Airforce is more powerful than ever before, with several capabilities being inducted and more to come in some month's time. If he doesn't perform better than S.B Abubakar, he will be a greater failure than any we've ever known. I'm actually very optimistic he will perform, he flew alpha jets against bokoharam. And has been heading the Air component of the counter insurgency operations. The only problem is that there is a lot of pressure on these guys already. The expectation is too much at a time when there is crisis in almost all parts of the country. This here is Buratai's nemesis, he was unfortunate to be the COAS at a time the military was battling insurgents and criminals on several fronts. He added the responsibility of the IGP to his and to be frank, I believe he did better than many of his predecessors would have done if they were to be in his shoes. And 7 Likes |

kabe1: Buratai inherited more problems than any of those service chiefs. This guy pick up the position at a time we couldn't call the Nigerian Army a armed force. Soldiers were running away from their duties and at some point mass resignation from personnel. Nothing could be worse than that. He had to build moral of troops and set precedence for other generals as well by being present in war front. I wonder how many service chief will do that at such a time? He almost got shot in one of the operations. He tried as a person (since he's not a magician) and to me we can't really compare his performance with that of CAS because they were not in the same shoes. 4 Likes |
