JONATHAN JUMPS 31 GENERALS TO APPOINT HIS OWN: The Tsunami of retirement and appointments in the Nigerian Army particularly the appointment of Gen. Kenneth Minimah as chief of army staff by President Jonathan ahead of 31 top generals who are his seniors in the Nigerian Army and are fit for the job vindicate the north for saying that the president wants to effectively transfer army formations to the south south. Sources say Maj-Gen Minimah was appointed because of his connection with Patience Jonathan. “The appointment of Minimah is an ill-wind that blows into the face of the military. We have been crying out that the agenda of Jonathan is to name his kinsman the chief of army staff right from his days in Lagos Command but they said we were alarmists; now the hen has come home to roost. There are so many officers who are superior to Minimah; now what becomes of them?” these are the words of a top Army officer who knows all that is going on according to frinznew online. Of the top 31 generals who are seniors to Mag-Gen Minimah, 15 would be retired soon while 16 may be left to work with him, if the National Assembly cannot summon the courage to reject his nomination. Allah ya kyauta. amin.
