Nigerians excel in many fields both at home and overseas, and the US Army is not an exception. What is more remarkable is how one family resident in USA has produced three full-fledged officers for the US Army. Grand Market Square celebrates with the Odocha family.

From left to right are: Lt Chioma Odocha, Lt Tochi Odocha and Capt Kelechi Odocha, all children of Dr and Mrs Harold Okay Odocha, originally from Mbaise, Imo State. Dr Odocha is a Transplant Surgeon (Liver/Kidney) and former Chief of Transplants at Howard University, Washington, DC.

Nice. Igbo amaka.

OneCorner:

Lol. They dumped Biafran army and went on to fight for US army
Sensible Igbo men don't want anything wit failure else they would have join ipob/Biafra army

Don't be too quick to judge. They might not be in Biafra Army because we don't have one right now but at least they stayed away from Fraudgeria's shithole Army where they'll be taught to shoot unarmed protesters, flee from Boko Haram and aid Fulani herdsmen terrorists in hacking innocent farmers to death in their sleep.

That is a great achievement...

Thank God they didn't end up in Nigerian Army.

Now that's called achievement...

Up Biafra

I respect their hustle.... It is no mean feat!!


It is not out of place for us to/be influence by siblings on career path.... That is why most parent struggle to get their first child on certain career path... But


Man proposes, God disposes!

They probably went through ROTC. Congrats guys.

Who no like better thing?

good work

As far as I'm concerned these guys are no longer Nigerians

achievement to be in the army i laugh
a life of uncertainty
wasted generation

Wow! Very big congratulations to them and their family.
Mbaise people are awesome people. Igbos are a great blessing to Africa.

Igbo's marginalisation in Nigeria is why Nigeria is backward. Believe it or not, it is the truth.
