President Bola Tinubu today decorated the acting Chief of Army Staff, Olufemi Oluyede, with the rank of Lieutenant General.
Oluyede was formerly a Major General.
The decoration took place in the President’s office complex at the State House, Abuja.
Tinubu appointed Oluyede as the acting Chief of Army Staff last Wednesday following the inability of the former occupant of the position, Lt General Taoreed Lagbaja, to perform his duties owing to ill health.
General Taoreed has remained indisposed for weeks in a foreign hospital.
