A new Aide-de-Camp has been appointed for President Muhammadu Buhari, ABN TV reports.
The new ADC, Lt-Col Yusuf Dodo, takes over from Col. Mohammed Abubakar who has been with the President since inception of his regime in 2015.
Abubakar is proceeding to Santiago, Chile for a five-month Strategic and Defence Course from March 8.
The course is a prerequisite for his next promotion to the rank of Brigadier-General.
An ADC is one of the prominent security officials in the “inner ring” of the Presidency.
