The Nigerian Army has redeployed, cancelled or amended postings of seven Major-Generals, 45 Brigadier-Generals and 597 other officers.
The redeployment, which took place last week, is one of the most far-reaching shake-up in the army in recent years.
Among the seven Major-Generals affected, the Army cancelled the redeployment of Adeniyi Oyebade, two months after he was transferred from being General Officer Commanding of Nigerian Army 1 Division, Kaduna, to Army Headquarters in Abuja as chief of logistics.
But no new posting was assigned to Oyebade, who was indicted last year in the December 2015 massacre of Shiites in Zaria.
The shake-up was announced in a memo and signed by Rabiu, a Major-General and Military Secretary, according to military sources.
