After the the late Major Orkar coup the army started opening up opportunity to minorities to join the army.

They also open opportunity for miniorities to attain senior military position.

[b]That is why an Igbo man was once the chief of army staff./b]

Now two ijaw brothers are military general ( major general ) that was very rare before in the 80s.

You are digging history too much, but it was not Ishaya Bamaiyi, but Musa Bamaiyi.
This happened sometimes 1988 or 1989 in depot Zaria, Col Musa Bamaiyi then was the Depot commandant, he kept his loaded service pistol on the table and was about to leave for work that day and forgot something in the bedroom he went inside to pick that thing.

His son was less than 7 then innocently picked up the pistol and pointed it to his younger brother, trying to practise what they usually watched in the movie, behold, he pulled the trigger and shot his younger brother at the forehead in a close range, the whole Chindit Barracks was agog that day.

Indomie generation can't even get this in google, but may God preserve the elders to continue shedding more light to our yesteryears history [s]which your generation have been deprived of in school[/s].

I don't just want to say what is on my mind because it is a new year.

But then, who did the voting?

Who would see Stella Okoli of Emzor and Nneka Onyeali-Ikpe who is the Managing director of Fidelity bank which is an Igbo bank and would choose Adaora Umeoji over them.

Today is my first time of hearing about Adaora Umeoji. Most of all these awards have lost its value.

Do you know the kind of impact Stella Okoli has made in Anambra and Nigeria in general.

Make una stop all these yeye award wey una dey sell to the highest bidders.

General Ishaya Bamaiyi and Musa Bamaiyi are the first siblings to become general... They hail from Zuru in Kebbi state.
Ishaya Bamaiyi was the Chief of Army Staff under Abacha

South South is slowly usurping the position of the South East in the scheme of things in Nigeria.

There is no such thing as Ebonyi people bla bla... Igbo is Igbo..
The nuisance in onitisha is almost purely by Igbo's from that state and neighboring state..
U call Ebonyi primitive but their state is relatively more peaceful and getting more developed than those brainwashed pigs in abia and IMO... U call anambra ,IMO and abia advance..but it the hub of brainless ipig ,cannibalism, drug lords..Aba still remains a living sewage..
Abeg rest....
You are still d same idiot that complain about Nigeria marginalise Igbo..amongst yourself u still marginalise ur brothers...

There are Igbo people from all the 5 states selling gala and hussling in major cities especially Lagos..
Don't u ever divide Igbo over useless lines...
Rubbish

A governor is wasting your money. You're happy because you can't see it. You're calling someone an idiot. There is no hope for you people.

Waiting for the state government to draw water line for those in metropolis is never happening. Enugu state govt house has 2-3 water tankers that runs to 9th mile to fetch water for governor's office and uses. There's no water bore pipe line at State govt house and you expect the govt to care about the citizens since they don't benefits from water corps system of the state?
Enugu state water tankers association, has a strong links and connections that they're using to make sure that they don't share enough water through water corporation during dry season. That's they'll bribe the corporation, so that people will be depending on them to have water at this season and the price is not something to write home about.
In summary, the state has failed to produce ordinary water to those at the metropolis because, those that are feeding on the misery of the citizenry are fighting with the state government with Unimaginable ferocity to make those living in Enugu at their mercies during dry season. ENUGU STATE IS NOT AT THE HAND OF GOD ANYMORE, THEY'VE HIJACK IT TO THEIR BELLY

I don't want to argue with you but Ebonyi state are the worst state in south east when it come to violence. I don't want to talk about hiding of identity because their governor is doing every thing possible to reduce that inferiority they always feel.

jclassiq:
You opinion easily gives you off as an unintelligent person. How exactly do you mean when you say "ebonyians are terrible?" In what sense?

I'm a proud Ebonyi man from onicha Igboeze and i proudly show my heritage wherever you find me.

OreMI22:
I personally believe that if he had built the same size of mall in Anambra, Enugu, Aba, Asaba, Abakaliki or Owerri, as the Abuja and PH Next malls, he would have gone very far like Everyday Supermarket or Roban by now. Not to mention that the response time of the state fire service would have been a lot sooner. That is if there would be any arson at all against his property in the southeast.

Whatever were Peter Obi's reasons for avoiding any investment in the southeast region is no longer valid. He should show good examples of Aku luo uno as a mega political leader in the zone.

OreMI22:
The more Peter Obi avoids investing in Anambra, the more he loses credibility in everything he does.

The first is that he ruled the state and claimed he did well to place it on a sound economic footing. Then campaigned for others to invest. So why isn't he investing? If he fails to invest in the state, he will eventually be looked upon as a man who is about all talk but no substance.

No stop being an ingrate. Ojukwu greed killed millions of igbo.
