It would be recalled that Mr Oluyede was nominated by the president, Bola Tinubu, as the Acting COAS following the Ill health of the former Chief of Army Staff, Taoreed Lagbaja, who later passed away.

As a partner in the pursuit of a secure and prosperous Nigeria, this House remains steadfast in its commitment to legislative oversight and support for the Armed Forces,ā€ he said.
