Contrary to a lot of negative reports that have overshadowed the reality on ground in Abia State, focus has been lost on the astonishing personalities that the stayed has produced.

The only Nigerian head of State of Igbo extraction General Aguiyi Ironsi and the former chief of General staff Commodore Ebitu Ukiwe hail from Abia but that is not all.There is a community known as Ovim that has produced more Generals than combination of other Southeastern States. The hometown of Ihejirika in Isuikwuato.

Some of the notable Military Generals and officers
of Isiukwuato origin include Senator Ike
Nwachukwu, Rear Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu, one time
Military Administrator of old Imo and Lagos states;
Navy Captain Christopher Osondu, former military
administrator of Cross Rivers State; the current
Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Azubuike Ihejirika,
among several other senior officers in the Army,
Navy and the Air Force.

Igbere Ebiri is the ONLY community in Nigeria
known to have produced three Governors in three
different states in the country. Late Commodore
Amadi Ikwechegh became the forerunner when in
1986 he was appointed the Governor of the old Imo
State during the era of IBB. He was in office till
1989. In 1998, as a demonstration of the believe in
the exceptional capabilities and Patriotism of
Igbere people, another great Son of Igbere Ebiri -
Wing Commander Emmanuel Ukaegbu was
appointed to take charge as the Governor of
Anambra State.

Others are Emeka Omeruah former Governor of Anambra and his brother Paul Omeruah former Governor of Kogi as well as Vice-Admiral Chijioke Kaja a former member of IBB's provisional ruling council.

Ihe nke a obukwa gini? I'm not from Abia and I don't want to compare again as most people have wrong motives once comparison comes in. I've opened one on Ebonyi with 25 solid minerals, I wonder what you have to say about that.

The asserted is in fact very true.
Abia comes tops in the SE when it comes to Military personel.

What can I say, in the land of the blind, one eyed man is king.
I hope they can go on to become tops in Nigeria,
Like some states I know can boast of in various other fields.

I guess some folks still have inferiority complex. All those military men and nothing to show for it lol.

I guess some in Abia state are desperate to feel good about something, even as monkeys like Theo Orji continue to rape the state dry.

Too bad

I can tell where you are from going by your hateful utterances borne out of jealousy. I did nothing wrong by writing the truth about Abia's military achievements that stands it out among the Southeastern States. I am neither Orji's supporter nor am I from Abia.

Thanks for the lesson

Thanks 4 the information.
