The Aide-de-Camp (ADC) to the Executive Governor of Imo State, DSP Ahmed Abdul Mumin, has extended heartfelt congratulations to Major General Waidi Shaibu on his appointment as the Chief of Army Staff of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
In a personally signed congratulatory message dated 24th October 2025, DSP Mumin described the appointment as a well-deserved honour and a source of immense pride to the people of Kogi State, noting that General Shaibu’s remarkable career embodies excellence, discipline, and patriotic service.
“As a proud son of Kogi State, your elevation brings immense honour to our people and serves as an inspiration to all who value dedication, professionalism, and service to the nation,” Mumin wrote.
He commended the new Army Chief for his unwavering commitment to national security and his sterling record of leadership across various military formations, adding that the appointment underscores President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s confidence in General Shaibu’s capacity to steer the Nigerian Army with courage, integrity, and strategic foresight at a critical juncture in the nation’s history.
Mumin further expressed optimism that under the new Chief of Army Staff’s leadership, the Nigerian Army would continue to uphold its tradition of discipline, unity, and national pride, strengthening its role as a cornerstone of Nigeria’s sovereignty and stability.
“May Almighty Allah guide and strengthen you as you discharge this great responsibility with wisdom, humility, and distinction,” he added.
DSP Ahmed Abdul Mumin, who currently serves as the Aide-de-Camp to Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, hails from Kogi State, the same state of origin as the newly appointed Chief of Army Staff — a connection many observers say makes the congratulatory message even more symbolic and heartfelt.
The statement has since drawn commendations from colleagues, political leaders, and military officers alike, who praised Mumin’s message for its professional tone, humility, and patriotism — qualities consistent with his public image as a disciplined officer and philanthropist committed to national development.
