President Bola Tinubu has approved mouth-watering allowances for officers of General rank, who will retire after serving 35 years.

According to the Harmonised Terms and Conditions of Service for Officers and Enlisted Personnel in the Nigerian Armed Forces, signed by President Bola Tinubu on December 14, 2024, the Chief of Defence Staff and other service chiefs are entitled to a bulletproof SUV or its equivalent as a retirement package.

The vehicle would be replaced every four years and maintained by the military. This is in addition to a Peugeot 508 or an equivalent vehicle as backup.

The retired generals will also enjoy a range of other luxurious benefits, including domestic aides and residential guards upon retirement.
