Buhari Writes National Assembly For Confirmation Of Service Chiefs Days After Appointment

In what seem to be the most confused move of the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, the national assembly have just been written to for the confirmation of the newly appointed service chiefs.

Recall that yesterday, news broke out that President Buhari byepassed the national assembly to appoint the service chiefs and this is clearly against what the Nigerian constitution states.

As a result of this, the president has decided to write the national assembly to confirm them, even after he has appointed them days ago. they have also resumed their duties in their respective offices.

Those appointed include Lucky Irabor, a major general, as the Chief of Defense Staff.

Others are Ibrahim Attahiru, a major general, as Chief of Army Staff, Auwal Gambo, a rear admiral, as Chief of Naval Staff and Isyaka Amao, an air vice marshal, as Chief of Air Staff.
