President Buhari Sacks All Military Service Chiefs.
President Muhammadu Buhari has finally relieved all the service chiefs
appointed by Goodluck Jonathan of their appointments. The decision was
taken on Monday from the president's office in Aso Rock.
President Buhari met with the newly appointed Service Chiefs at the
State House earlier today. While addressing the new Service Chiefs,
President Buhari charged the men to work towards restoring the lost
glory of the Nigerian military. According to him, they were all
appointed on merit.
“All of you, including the National Security Adviser, were chosen on
merit. Your records gave you the job. Save for the new Chief of Army
Staff whom I briefly met at his Command at the Multi-National Joint Task
Force, in Chad, I don’t know any of you. Your records recommended you.
Legally, you are in acting capacity until the National Assembly accepts
you. It is only then that you will take the oath of office. Thereafter,
we will sit down and talk in more detail,” he them.
