ARMY COUNCIL APPROVES RETIREMENT OF SOME SENIOR ARMY OFFICERS

Posted by admin | 8 years ago | 2,499 times



The Nigerian Army wishes to inform the general public that quite a number of senior officers of the Nigerian Army were retired from service yesterday.

Those retired were mainly some Major Generals, Brigadier Generals, Colonels, Lieutenant Colonels and a Major.

Their retirement was based on Service exigencies. It should be recalled that not too long ago some officers were investigated for being partisan during the 2015 General Elections.

Similarly, the investigation by the Presidential Committee investigating Defence Contracts revealed a lot.

Some officers have already been arraigned in court by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). 
People should therefore not read this out of context.

The military must remain apolitical and professional at all times.

We must applaud and support this laudable and bold initiative by the government.

Thank you for your usual and kind cooperation.

Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman 
Acting Director Army Public Relations
