Nigeria - About 25 major generals are to proceed on retirement following the confirmation of the new service chiefs appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari by the senate.
With his appointment as Chief of Army Staff, Major-General T.Y. Buratai who is a Course 29 regular intake of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA), all Major-Generals from Course 25, 26, and 27 may have to leave the service voluntarily while a few on Course 28 may be posted to Defence Headquarters.
Reports say the appointment of Major-General Abayomi Olonishakin, a Course 25 regular intake, as the new Chief of Defence Staff, may be the leeway needed for Course 27 and 28 intakes to move up to DHQ.
Also, it's believed that those who are course mates to the immediate past Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General KTJ Minimah and those of Course 26 to 28 may have to retire since they cannot serve under their junior.
