STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT TINUBU APPROVES EXPANSION OF NIGERIAN ARMY TO 12 DIVISIONS, RECRUITMENT OF 28,000 PERSONNEL TO STRENGTHEN NATIONAL SECURITY

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has approved the expansion of the Nigerian Army’s structure from eight to twelve divisions—a landmark move to enhance the country’s security architecture and improve the operational effectiveness of the Nigerian Army.

This approval underscores the President’s unwavering commitment to equipping the Armed Forces to address Nigeria’s evolving security challenges effectively and to strengthen national defence capabilities further.

The expansion builds on the Administration’s sustained investments in the Armed Forces, including approval for the recruitment of 28,000 additional personnel, acquisition of critical military platforms and equipment, improvements in troop welfare, and ongoing support for operational readiness and force modernisation.

Under the new structure, the Nigerian Army will operate twelve divisions, strategically positioned across the country as follows:

1. 1 Division Headquarters – Kaduna (Kaduna, Kano, Katsina and Jigawa States)
2. 2 Division Headquarters – Ibadan (Oyo, Osun, Ekiti and Ondo States)
3. 3 Division Headquarters – Jos (Plateau, Bauchi and Gombe States)
4. 5 Division Headquarters – Makurdi (Benue, Nasarawa and Kogi States)
5. 6 Division Headquarters – Port Harcourt (Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross River States)
6. 7 Division Headquarters – Maiduguri (Borno and Yobe States)
7. 8 Division Headquarters – Sokoto (Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara States)
8. 9 Division Headquarters – Ilorin (Kwara and Niger States)
9. 10 Division Headquarters – Jalingo (Taraba and Adamawa States)
10. 81 Division Headquarters – Lagos (Lagos and Ogun States)
11. 82 Division Headquarters – Enugu (Enugu, Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi and Imo States)
12. 83 Division Headquarters – Benin City (Edo, Delta and Bayelsa States).

The establishment of the new Divisions in Makurdi, Ilorin, Jalingo and Benin City will significantly improve command and control, decentralise operational decision-making, strengthen border security, enhance the protection of critical national infrastructure, improve counter-insurgency and internal security operations, and ensure faster military response to emerging threats nationwide.

Implementation of the new force structure will be done in two phases. The first phase, covering the establishment of the 5, 9, and 10 Divisions and the reorganisation of existing formations, will be completed by September 2026. The second phase, involving the establishment of the 83 Division and further reorganisation, is expected to be completed by December 2026.

President Tinubu commended the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Waidi Ibrahim Shuaibu, and all officers and soldiers of the Nigerian Army for their dedication, professionalism, and steadfast commitment to defending Nigeria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The President reaffirmed his Administration’s determination to continue investing in the Armed Forces, ensuring they remain adequately equipped, highly motivated, and fully capable of protecting the nation and guaranteeing the safety and security of all Nigerians.

JUST IN: Tinubu Formally Presents 2027 Running Mate Certificate to Shettima, Confirms APC's Muslim-Muslim Ticket

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has officially presented the certificate of nomination to Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima, confirming him as his running mate for the 2027 presidential election.

The presentation follows the All Progressives Congress (APC)'s decision to retain the Tinubu–Shettima joint ticket for the next general election, reaffirming the party's confidence in the leadership duo.

The development officially confirms the continuation of the same Muslim-Muslim ticket that secured victory for the APC in the 2023 presidential election, putting an end to speculation over the party's vice-presidential candidate for 2027.

The APC leadership says the decision reflects its commitment to continuity, stability and the implementation of the Renewed Hope Agenda ahead of the 2027 presidential poll.

May APC succeed again!

HOW TINUBU IS RESTRUCTURING NIGERIA WITHOUT A NATIONAL CONFERENCE.
For decades, politicians argued that Nigeria needed another national conference before major restructuring could happen.

The Tinubu administration has instead pursued restructuring through constitutional amendments, fiscal reforms, energy reforms, and institutional changes.

Tax System Overhaul.

No administration since 1999 has attempted a comprehensive rewrite of Nigeria's tax system.

In 2025, Tinubu signed four major tax reform laws:

-Nigeria Tax Act
-Nigeria Tax Administration Act
-Nigeria Revenue Service Act
-Joint Revenue Board Act

The reforms simplify tax administration, reduce overlapping taxes, improve the ease of doing business, and create a more coordinated tax system.

Small businesses with annual turnover up to ₦100 million now enjoy broader tax exemptions under the new framework.

This is fiscal restructuring without changing Nigeria's federal structure.

If we're honest, we would know that these issues he's handling have been the major issues limiting Nigeria.

But unfortunately, the same people insulting him today have been the same people crying for years that these are reforms Nigeria needed to make

22. He mandated the Army and the Police to recruit massively to put more boots on the ground in the war against terror.
23. First President to order withdrawal of police personnel from VIPs for deployment to rural areas to improve security.
24. Unprecedented humongous allocations to the security sector for the purchase of weapons platforms and operational costs.
25. He raised funds via the issuance of bonds to liquidate debts owed to Gencos with a view to improving investment in electricity generation.
25. He allows a free and liberal atmosphere. Only those who commit crimes are hauled before the courts.
26. His international diplomacy is top-notch. In the UAE his speech was presidential and brilliant. In the UK, his visit was a showstopper. In Turkey, he forged a partnership for drone purchase and military training.

PRESS STATEMENT

JULY: A SEASON OF COMPLETION, RENEWED HOPE, AND GREATER COMMITMENT TO THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE

As we step into the month of July and the beginning of the second half of the year, I warmly congratulate all Nigerians, members of the APC family, our dedicated volunteers, partners, and supporters across the 774 Local Government Areas of our great nation.

The month of July carries profound significance. As the seventh month of the year, it symbolizes completion, perfection, divine order, and the fulfilment of purpose. It reminds us that after every season of labour comes a season of reward, and after every challenge comes the opportunity for renewal.

The opening of the second half of the year is more than a change of date; it is a divine invitation to reflect on our journey, renew our vision, strengthen our resolve, and pursue our aspirations with greater courage and determination. Whatever the first half of the year may have brought, the remaining months present fresh opportunities to achieve greater milestones.

Nigeria's story has always been one of resilience. Our people have consistently demonstrated courage, enterprise, and an unbreakable spirit in the face of adversity. It is this enduring spirit that gives us confidence that our nation is destined for greater heights.

As Founder and National Grand Coordinator of the APC Door to Door Network Initiative (AD2DNI), I reaffirm our unwavering commitment to deepening grassroots political engagement, promoting issue-based civic participation, strengthening public confidence in democratic institutions, and taking the message of responsible leadership and citizen participation to every household, every community, and every polling unit across our nation.

Through our empowerment platform, Vision Seven Seven Four Rural Empowerment Initiative (ViSSFREI), we equally renew our determination to touch lives across Nigeria's 774 Local Government Areas by promoting rural empowerment, community development, youth engagement, women inclusion, economic opportunities, and sustainable grassroots initiatives that improve livelihoods and restore hope.

This is not the season for discouragement or division. It is a season to inspire hope, ignite faith, renew commitment, and work together for a stronger, more prosperous, and united Nigeria. Every Nigerian has a role to play in building the nation we all desire.

To our members and volunteers nationwide, I urge you to remain steadfast, disciplined, and people-oriented. Continue to serve with integrity, humility, and patriotism. Let every interaction with the people reflect our commitment to service, unity, and national development.

I also encourage every Nigerian to embrace this second half of the year with renewed optimism. Believe in your potential. Believe in the promise of our nation. Believe that with unity of purpose, sacrifice, and collective responsibility, we can overcome every challenge before us.

May the Almighty God grant us wisdom to lead, strength to serve, grace to persevere, and favour to succeed. May He bless every family, protect our security personnel, prosper our workers, empower our youths, strengthen our institutions, and continue to guide the leadership of our nation.

Let July mark the beginning of greater achievements, uncommon breakthroughs, renewed national confidence, and lasting prosperity for every Nigerian.

Happy New Month.

Happy New Half of the Year.

May God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
