Army pulls 15 generals from service

Army to conduct battle simulation in Abuja barracks, alert residents


No fewer than 15 generals of the Nigerian Army from the Artillery Corps have bowed out of service.

PUNCH Online reports that the Artillery Corps delivers heavy firepower to allied forces positioned at the front lines on the battlefield.

In a post on Sunday on social media, the Nigerian Army said the retired officers consist of 11 Major Generals and four Brigadier Generals.

The post added that the retired generals were pulled out of the service at a ceremony held at the Nigerian Army School of Artillery in Kaduna State.

It read, “The Nigerian Army formally pulled out 15 retired generals from the Artillery Corps on Saturday, October 19, 2024, during a ceremony at the Nigerian Army School of Artillery in Kachia, Kaduna State. The group of retirees included 11 Major Generals and 4 Brigadier Generals.”

Speaking on behalf of the retired officers during the pulling-out parade, Maj Gen James Myam (retd.) reflected on their long military careers, expressing fulfilment and gratitude.

“He attributed their success to divine grace, acknowledging God’s protection throughout their years of service. He also extended his appreciation to President Bola Tinubu for the opportunity to serve and thanked the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja, wishing him continued strength and wisdom in his leadership of the NA.

“Looking back, Maj Gen Myam recalled the beginning of their military journeys when they reported to the Nigerian Defence Academy in Kaduna as Officer Cadets.

“He offered advice to the officers still in service, urging them to remain loyal to the Constitution and the democratically elected government while maintaining vigilance and security consciousness.

“The retired general also expressed gratitude to the families, spouses, friends, instructors, and mentors who ed them throughout their careers. The event was attended by several senior retired and serving military officers, including former Chief of Army Staff, Maj Gen Alwali Kazir (retd),“ the statement added.

Good.
99% of those generals are very useless and corrupt.

The money most of the steal is far more than what many politicians can even dream to steal.

Why the Arabic inscription on the logo? NIGERIA is a circular state.

It's not Arabic. It's Hausa written in Arabic letters. A native Arabic speaker will not understand what's written on the Army logo. FACT

In English it means: Victory is from God alone.

And it's secular not circular

Edit: So I have had someone correct me that it is a quote from the Holy Quran, which automatically makes it 100% Arabic. I stand corrected.

Almunjid:

That's Arabic and it's a quotation from the Quran 61:13, where Allah says:
وَأُخْرَىٰ تُحِبُّونَهَا نَصْرٌ مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَفَتْحٌ قَرِيبٌ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِين
"And [you will obtain] another [favor] that you love - victory from Allah and an imminent conquest; and give good tidings to the believers."
