Nigerian Army War College Decorates Newly Promoted Brigadier General

The Army War College Nigeria (AWCN) held a ceremony on Friday 3 January 2025, to decorate six of its officers recently elevated to the rank of Brigadier General. The event took place at the Tukur Yusuf Buratai Hall of the College, located in Asokoro, Abuja.

The newly promoted officers are Brigadier General IB Buhari, Brigadier General SBN Egbulem, Brigadier General AA Sambo, Brigadier General AU Abdul, Brigadier General AM Dikko, and Brigadier General MI Lemu.

In his remarks, the Commandant of AWCN, Major General Ishaya Maina, commended the newly promoted officers for their dedication, professionalism, and loyalty, which had earned them this significant career milestone. Addressing the promoted officers, he emphasized the weight of leadership and responsibility that accompanies their new rank.

Quoting General Norman Schwarzkopf, a revered U.S. Army Commander, General Maina remarked, “Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.” He underscored the message by explaining that while strategic expertise is crucial, the character of a leader defines their ability to inspire trust and loyalty, especially in challenging circumstances.

He further reminded the officers of the purpose of rank and authority by quoting General Bruce C. Clarke: “Rank is given you to enable you to better serve those above and below you. It is not given for you to practice your idiosyncrasies.” General Maina elaborated on this, urging the newly decorated generals to view their promotion not as a privilege but as a call to greater service, accountability, and humility.

The Commandant also extended his gratitude to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Olufemi Oluyede, for his unwavering support of the College and for approving the promotions.

Earlier, in his welcome address, the Director of Administration and Logistics AWCN, Brigadier General JN Garba, commended the officers’ exceptional achievements. He noted that these six individuals were part of the 73 colonels promoted by the Nigerian Army, who had been thoroughly assessed by the promotion board and deemed exemplary in character, military expertise, and dedication.

The ceremony was graced by distinguished guests, including Senator Saliu Mustapha, representing Kwara Senatorial District; the Chief of Special Services and Programmes, Major General HT Wesley; and Major General DG Alu, among others.
