First African to coach a British Clubside

Emenalo

Jean Tigana of Mali was once the coach of Fulham F.C.

Ohakim is a meanigful name. It is a pity you do not know the meaning.

APGA has still got a long way to go. To start with, Chekwas Okorie has to be brought to the fold.

They deserve it true and true.

Katsumoto:
Be man enough to either apologise or find the post that I made that was tribalistic. To help you decide which of the following helped you in reaching that false conclusion?

1. That I proved that Emmanuel Okala was not the first Nigerian to win the CAF African footballer of the year; in fact he never won it
2. That I stated that Brigadier Ogundipe was in the country when Gowon was selected as the compromise Head of State after the July 66 coup
3. That I stated that Bishop Ajayi Crowther wrote the Primer for the Igbo and Nupe Languages

If you are unable to do either, then clearly you have no honour.

You are correct in your claims. I do not think they are tribalistic, only Agaba thinks otherwise.

edoyad:
na Wa for you o.
Oya, Gen Ironsi was the 1st Nigerian commander of a UN peace keeping force.

Well done. Next time verify your facts before you hurriedly post it here.

Obiagu1:
Why are you guys bitter that Aisha left?

Is it because she helped you silence Igbo posters by moving their threads to racism section while she left your very tribalistic posts on politics section?

She was very fair to all just like Jarus and OAMJ are. Mukina was responsible for that.

Aishat2 went astray in her support for Buhari. I saw it coming. During the campaign era, I pointed out to her all the politics of bitterness she was playing especially all the personal attacks on Mrs Jonathan just for the sake of politics. I Pray she comes back, she hardly insulted forumites.

1st Nigerian Civilisation and the only Original aboriginal Nigerians still in existence. People who were sculpting even before Europeans could pick their noses. This beats every one else so y'all better shot the f?ck up - Nok civilisation/people of southern Kaduna.

Have you admitted how wrong you were on the first Nigerian appointed to head a peace keeping mission?.

vicenzo:
You are welcome,we are all lucky to have a proud igbo son like ezeagu amongst us.
For months agbotaen kept exhbiting his folly in this section with his copy and post crap,he wouldn't listen to proud igbo anioma sons like omonuan until ezeagu came to the rescue.

Ogbuefi1-an Ika and a proud Igbo finally silenced him and his collaborators.

Katsumoto:
It was a United Nations force requested by the general secretary, Dag Hammarskjold. Ironsi was the first to hold such a position.

Cardinal Okogie was in the forefront before Matthew Kuka. Okogie may not even have been the first to go against the military.

adejoro75:
Edoyad, Andre is correct
Ironsi was head of UN mission in the congo. Do some googling

Thanks Katsumoto and Adejoro75.

^ Ta, i'm talking about United Nations peace keeping force not one African thingy. Pls check your records.

1st and only Nigerian people to produce two chiefs of Army staff in succession - general Martin Luther Agwai succeeded by General Luka Yusuf - southern kaduna

Guy accept defeat in this instance. Aguiyi Ironsi was appointed by the U.N to head the peace-keeping mission in Patrice Mulumba's Congo, later Zaire and now D.R Congo.

edoyad:
Ok then. 1st Nigerian to head a United nations peace keeping force
- General Martin Luther Agwai, southern kaduna

Gen Aguiyi Ironsi headed the same mission in Congo in 1964 or thereabout.

Thanks,you are the man,that post will keep agbontaen in check for now, he disappeared for months after your posted that book,only to return now thinking we have forgotten why he disappeared.

Thanks as well to the originator here-Ezeagu.

bokohalal:
By your logic you can have various ancestry and be Igbo but no other?That is the problem. You have to let those that do not want to be Igbo be what they want to be.

Those that do not want to be Igbo are free not to be Igbo. But they should allow those from their groups that want to be Igbo to do as they please. It is an outright stupidity for any one who does not want to be Igbo to claim that others in his community are not Igbo. If someone from Owa says he is not Igbo, no qualms but he shouldn't display stupidity by claiming that others from his community are not Igbo.
