Lt.-Col. Dodo is taking up from Colonel Mohammed Lawal Abubakar, who’s continuing to renew a promotion course, after which he could be promoted to the Brigadier-General rank, together with some others.
Although there’s not more likely to be an official release on the development to the media, sources close to Aso Rock Presidential Villa have confirmed it.
Efforts to reach the Special Adviser, in addition to the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, for affirmation on Saturday, have been futile as they were out of reach.
