Following the recent redeployment of top officers in
the Nigerian Army and the hierarchy of the military, a
new commandant of Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA),
Major General Mohammed Ibrahim has taken over the
command of the military Institution in Kaduna.
Major General Ibrahim, who succeeded Major General
Mohammed Inuwa Idris as the 27th Commandant of
NDA, is a seasoned infantry officer.
Besides, addressing the Principal Staff Officers, Deans
and Head of Centres of the Academy during the
handing over ceremony, the outgoing Commandant,
Major General Idris described the new Commandant as
a seasoned and thorough-bred infantry officer, endowed
with vast exposure and experience that will be brought
to bear in piloting the affairs of the academy.
He said that NDA was particularly lucky that its
successive Commandants in the recent years were
people who enjoyed a warm and cordial relationship
with each other since their days as cadets at the
academy, adding that they all shared common values
and goals, which he said had helped to sustain
consistency in policy and vision for the academy.
General Idris however assured that the new
Commandant will continue with the developmental
strides that have been entrenched in the academy, as
he possess the capacity to improve on them.
While calling for support for the new Commandant, the
outgoing NDA boss pointed out that far reaching
reforms have been achieved under his 18 months
leadership of the academy, stating that, the real
reforms were intangibles like character development of
cadets and realignment of academic and military
training towards meeting present challenges and those
of the future.
Meanwhile, in his response, General Ibrahim applauded
his predecessor on the various developmental projects
scattered round the academy and innovative ideas he
adopted during his tenure as Commandant.
He urged the staff of the Academy to embrace team
spirit in order to be able to succeed in the task of
producing well-trained officer cadets for the nation.
Until his appointment as NDA Commandant, Major
General Mohammed Ibrahim was the Chief of Army
Standards and Evaluation at the Army Headquarters,
Abuja. He also served as Director Policy at the
Department of Policy and Plans, Army Headquarters,
