President Muhammdu Buhari has sent the name of Major General Farouk Yahaya, to the Senate for screening and confirmation as the Chief of Army Staff (COAS).
Buhari’s letter was read at the plenary on Tuesday by Senate President Ahmad Lawan.
Buhari nominated Yahaya of Course 37 as the acting COAS following the death of Lt. General Ibrahim Attahiru in a NAF aircraft that crashed in Kaduna two weeks ago.
