Nigerian army rank structure for JUNIOR AND SENIOR CADER π
The general cader is recognized by stars on uniforms, plagues and motorcade;
-1). Brigadier General is 1 π
-2). Major General is 2ππ
3). Lieutenant General is 3 πππ
-4). Full General is 4 ππππ
-5). Field Marshall is 5 πππππ.
So once you see this stars, you know the type of general you are seeing.
This ranking system is based on the British colonial system. However, the introduction of the skewed and defective quota system really bastardized everything.
