In a new retirement package approved by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the former Chief of Defence Staff and two other recently retired service chiefs are set to receive bulletproof SUVs, Prado Jeeps (or equivalent backup vehicles), and a $60,000 medical allowance each.
The gesture, according to sources, is in recognition of their years of service and contributions to national security. The package underscores the administration’s commitment to supporting senior military officers after active service, ensuring their welfare and safety in retirement.
The move has generated mixed reactions among citizens, with some commending the recognition of service, while others raise questions about government spending priorities amid economic challenges.
