Nigerian President Overhauls Leadership of the Military
No reason given
Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan has replaced his chief of defense and the heads of the country's army, navy and air force.
A statement Thursday gave no reason for the sweeping overhaul.
The move comes as Nigeria struggles with a four-and-a-half-year insurgency by the militant group Boko Haram. A bombing Tuesday in the group's home city of Maiduguri killed at least 43 people.
