President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday appointed Major General Farouk Yahaya as the new Chief of Army Staff (COAS).
According to a statement on Thursday, Farouk was appointed to replace the recently demised General Ibrahim Attahiru who died in a fatal plane crash en-route Kaduna State along with other senior officers and crew members.
Until his appointment, Major General Farouk was GOC Div. 1 and the incumbent Theatre Commander of the Counterterrorism Counter Insurgency military outfit in the North East code-named Operation HADIN KAI.
The appointment comes five days after the burial of the late COAS Attahiru and six other senior officers at the National Military Cemetery in Abuja.
