GET IN SHAPE OR BE SACKED - NIGERIAN ARMY GIVES OVER-WEIGHT OFFICERS 3 MONTH DEADLINE

Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, has given a three-month ultimatum to over-weight Army personnel to shape up or be shown the way out of the forces.
He said this while fielding questions from newsmen after addressing the Chief of Army Staff’s third quarter conference which opened at the Army Headquarters, Abuja, yesterday.

The COAS said over-weight soldiers, including officers, have been given till the end of December to shed the excess baggage or start planning for another career, because after that period those who could not comply will not be allowed to continue with the Army.
This rule should be extended to the police force as well.
