On January 15 of 1966, Nigeria experienced its first coup led by Major Nzeogwu. The coup was put down by the head of the Army, Major General Aguiyi-Ironsi who then assumed power. Ironsi then announced that the top Army commander in Enugu at the time, Lt Colonel David Ejoor should become temporary Military Governor of the East until he (Ironsi) decided on a permanent Governor (Ejoor could not be permanent Governor since he was not from the Eastern Region). Two days later, Ironsi announced the 4 Military Governors for the 4 Regions. They were:-

Lt Colonel Emeka Ojukwu - Eastern Region
Lt Colonel F.A Fajuyi - Western Region
Lt Colonel David Ejoor - Mid-West Region
Major Useman Katsina - Northern Region

Ojukwu flew to Enugu and immediately started work in his temporary office, the one Ejoor had used 2 days before. Ojukwu started growing his trademark beard from that day.

What's the wisdom behind this thread please? If not for ethnic bashing and hauling of tribal slurs, what other purpose can this kind of thread serve?
MODIFIED
We have seen this kind of pictures uncountable number of times and all we had were abusive comments and tribal bashing.

What is wrong with a bit of history? This type of thread should rather be encouraged, any body that wants to abuse their dumb illiterate parents can go ahead and do so, it changes nothing.

He did everything right except he ran away when the war is hot. He later came back to pledge one Nigeria to Buhari in Daura.

Well at least he stood up and fought before running away. You guys surrendered to the Caliphate because you couldn't stand up and fight.

Pathetic thing! You, your ancestors, children and future lineage are not fit to tie his shoe laces.
Keep repeating the stupid lies and die in your ignorance.
It won't change a thing.
Those who know, know. That is why he remains a legend to his people
