Buhari To Service Chiefs: I Don’t Know Any of You, Work To Build The Armed Forces

New Service Chiefs
President Muhammadu Buhari Monday in Abuja urged  the newly appointed
Service Chiefs to help him rebuild the reputation of the Armed Forces and
the nation.

Addressing them shortly after their appointments were announced, the
President also called on them to show utmost commitment to their new
duties.
“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,” President Buhari told the new
service chiefs.
He assured them that their nominations will be sent to the National
Assembly either today or tomorrow for confirmation.
