New Nigerian Service Chiefs Screened by Senate for National Security

The new Service Chiefs in Nigeria arrived at the Senate for screening after being appointed by President Godswil Akpabio. The changes in the military hierarchy include appointments such as Major General W.

Shaibu as Chief of Army Staff and Air Marshal Bala Abubakar as Chief of Air Staff. The outgoing service chiefs oversaw operations against Boko Haram, ISWAP, and armed bandits in various regions.

The move is seen as a strategic shift to address ongoing security challenges in the country.
