Lagbaja on vacation as Bagudu resumes in acting capacity
Nigerian Army has declared that the Chief of Army Staff Taoreed Lagbaja is on vacation.
Naijablitznews reports Army spokesman, Onyema Nwachukwu, made this known in a statement where he explained the laid down process that ensures no vacuum in the leadership structure.
Nwachukwu said the Army Chief of Policy and Plans, Major General Abdulsalami Ibrahim, would act on behalf of the COAS during his absence.
According to Nwachukwu, the COAS’ leave won’t affect the Army’s operations. There have even been insinuations that there is a leadership vacuum, with officers confused about what to do. Nothing could be further from the truth.
“To be very clear, the Nigerian Army is a highly structured establishment with well-laid-out procedures and processes for dealing with different circumstances.
“Before proceeding on leave, necessary protocols were put in place for the Chief of Policy and Plans (Army), Major General Abdulsalami Bagudu Ibrahim, to act on behalf of the COAS while he was away.
Claims of a leadership vacuum in the NA at present are therefore mere speculation, as all routine and scheduled activities of the service are on course.” (DailyPost)
