Tinubu Reshuffles Service Chiefs After Foiled Coup Plot in Nigeria

Following a foiled coup plot against President Bola Tinubu, he approved a major shake-up in Nigeria's armed forces, appointing new service chiefs to strengthen national security. The announcement of the new appointments was made on Thursday.

Tinubu expressed appreciation for the outgoing service chiefs' contributions to peace and stability during their tenure. The move comes after the arrest of 20 soldiers, including a brigadier general, for their involvement in the coup plot.
