This decision came after his screening by the Joint Committees on Defence and Army on Wednesday.
During Thursday’s plenary, Babajimi Benson, the committee chairman, presented the screening report and recommended Oluyede’s confirmation.
The recommendation was approved during the session, which was led by Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu.
Oluyede had been serving as the Acting Chief of Army Staff following the death of his predecessor, Taoreed Lagbaja, due to health complications.
KanyiDaily recalls that President Bola Tinubu had earlier sent a letter to the House, requesting Oluyede’s confirmation. The letter was read by Speaker Abbas during Tuesday’s plenary session.
