That's the mistake the great Igbos keep making, never show thy enemy love.

So yorubas are enemies of the igbos? While this past election has really opened our eyes. Generally yorubas are accommodating people and we don't segregate.
My painters for here, Baba Chidinma is an Igbo man. I give him jobs a lot and introduce more customers to him even to the detriment of my own blood brother.
The company where I work, an Igbo lady from Anambra is the Head of account and the organisation is own by a Yoruba.
Yorubas don't segregate, ours is just get the job done and be diligent irrespective of your tribe .
Go and look at Tinubu's tenure when he was the governor of Lagos state, his cabinet consists of different tribes not just yorubas alone.
Even the Lagos state house of assembly during his tenure comprises of one or two igbos.
But things really took turn during this past election when you want to dictate for your host. Please who does that?

Your last paragraph is the deal "don't take Major General simplicity for granted if you do you will be grinded to powder. Bro you be smart guy.

I'm from that background if you see my dad you can never belief he is a such high ranking rtd millitary officer but if you provoke him and he roar bro all of us take cover and sudden silent everywhere within, no be small thing bro.

Ibos are the most bitter and hateful tribe.

Innonson is an ungrateful specie, who borrowed money but when it was time to pay back, he quickly turned it into a tribal war.

Allen Onyeama is a failed lawyer who never ran any business prior to Air peace. The money used for floating Air peace was amnesty money stolen by GEJ. When they exhaust it, the airline will sink like others.

Who's de Hater now?

Love is like a blunt knife, though it cuts dirty but it cuts no deep. Love always win! Some yorubans are great guys, especially those from families who live in cosmopolitan cities. But the fear when a dirty, agbero comes in contact with him & poisons his mind with ideas of Ronuism!

Here is Major General Okoro humbling himself to seek our his Yoruba Company Sergeant Major( CSM) in recognition of the role he helped to play in shaping his life as a young officer.

MKO June-12 struggle was championed by brave Igbos like the late R.Adr Ndubuisi Kanu, Chris Anyawu alongside Abraham Adesanya, Pa Adekunle Ajasin though some Igbos like Aurthur Nzeribe worked against it. By then, Tinubu have fled abroad when his deal for Abacha to make him the civilian administrator of Lagos fell through. Me I follow fought for the mandate too. Now Peter Obi was condemned for a well know man with dirty past because of parochial politics.

Allen Onyema made Air Peace biggest air fleets available for freighting of Covid-19 consumables and logistics but they hated and condemned him over a phantom financial fraud in the US. Seunmsg my friend was one of the leading champion then but today defending a grossly publicised multiple scandals involving Tinubu.

Innocent Motors versus GTB scandal is still fresh in our memory. The Yoruba man that was making malicious claim that his company alleged bought faulty vehicles from Innoson motors have to delete his FB account when confronted over his false claims.They hate us but we continue to show the love.

You are a pathetic liar,the south east is the only region in the south that did not experience any significant protest for June 12.
Infact,it was an ibo man Nzeribe that scuttled Abiola mandate.
South East gave Abiola the lowest votes,Azikwe preferred to form a govt with Balewa instead of Awolowo,you guys have always hated and distrust Yoruba because we see through your shenanigans and you guys know it.
If you are an adult during the June 12 saga,and you still posts nonsense like this in 2023,i pity your children.

Awww. This is so sweet and inspiring. Well done General Okoro. You are an epitome of a Patriotic Nigerian of Igbo extraction. Shame on those who feel they can blackmail us when we denounce the loud mob of uncouth, hate-filled bigoted patriotic elements masquerading as Igbo online. God bless you sir.Check my signature for free stuffs!

You are one of the worst individual on NAIRALAND forum sincerely speaking.

Just shut up there abeg and go back and check your history.

Between Azikiwe and Awolowo who first betrayed each other?

Awolowo single handedly brought tribalism into NIGERIA politics and if you doubt me just google :

Who brought Tribalism into NIGERIA politics,

I guess you will shut up by force.

The major general had to seek him out because the sergeant major helped him and took him in when he was a young officer it is you and your kind that is full of hatred

You will always see things through the prism of tribe and politics, a very terrible trait.

Firstly, if the supposed Yoruba superior was not good to the Major General would he have come looking for him many years after? Or do you not know that "Kindness begets Kindness?".

Your antecedents here, especially one of tribal bigotry puts you in bad light, not everything is d1ck measuring contest. And the politicians you love and support are not better than those you loathe, they're all the same for your info. For every 1 finger you point at one 4 of same points back at you, you should change your mindset.

See how you twisted and tried to turn this beautiful thread into a tribal contest rather than savour the beauty of love and unity amongst fellow Nigerians.

I totally disagree with some of your assumptions. They don't hate you. I can tell you for a fact. The problem is "you will need to tell yourselves the truth". For instance I like you , through and through, with all my being, but will you even bother to tell yourself the truth?

The post made showed that Yorubas don't hate Igbos, if not, the Igbo man won't trace the Yoruba man.

Let's look at the Peter Obi's election you mentioned, the first person to make a major political move in favor of Obi was Doyin Okupe , even though it was tagged the wrong name recently. The second major political pronouncement for Peter was the Afenifere leader and the man stood behind Obi till date. At that point, only young people of the eastern estraction reckoned with Peter and non of the elite and leaders will speak openly for him. Then the much hated Obasanjo stood up and started writing letters as usual in favor of Obi. He even started national consultations for the purpose. But there then seems to be a demon right down in the East pushing the political elite to start speaking against Obi. I almost wept at those instances.

Then notably too is that we are too spontaneous. We could not keep our actions in our belly and only act to suprise our opponents. An Igbo guy even boasted of procuring 2000 pieces of drones to monitor election. Am not sure he thought it through before he spoke. We neglect building bridges . The only easterner trying to build bridge was Obi but he only had one vote. People who should be silent until the victory is won were busy telling Lagosians that Lagos is a no man's land. I doubt if anyone can say that about Kano, Kaduna, Enugu, port harcourt etc. We failed to stoop to conquer and we are paying dearly for that now ....but what do I know....

Bitter and HATEFILLED IPOB cannibals everywhere.

Gentlesoul2021:
I wanted to say same. Some people don't know the different between commission and non commission officer. A junior commissioned officer will be over a senior non commissioned officer. It's good to join the elite cadre.
Yes they clearly had close relationship...

Exactly! The old man was a non commissioned officer

I didn't know till I did a course with them at Jaji. Very humble people. They will call me sir before I even great them

The ones you met aren't Generals....na Majors and it's equivalents

All the same, most commissioned officers are so occupied with work, no time for shit

Thank God for his life. Most WO are notoriously wicked. These one chooses to be humble and nice. I am happy for the old man.

Twisting stories will always divide people who ordinarily should be united.

General Okoro must have been positively impacted by the warrant Officer Adegoke for him to go in search of him due to his benevolence when he had the upper hand, From all the history of Nigeria, there is no part Yorubas either as individuals or Group hate any fellow Nigerians from other parts of the country, if you are in doubt go to Mile 12 or Orile, and see how accommodating yorubas have been to the igbos in particular,

I don't know how old you are but you can dig for the truth about the true history of Nigeria and see the efforts of each regions and their leadership to betray one another or unite the country.

Go and learn how Nnamdi Azikwe became the first president of Nigeria. Then you will learn the true story of a country called Nigeria.

There was an event I went to cover at this same odogbo barracks, Ibadan a long time ago. It was a party, so, the soldiers were not on uniform. A man asked me if I had taken his picture. (Photographer! You don snap me?) I said I will take it later. He said, no problem, but, make sure you don't forget . I said, yes sir.

It was when they called major general so so so to the high table that it dawned on me that, he was the one representing the GOC at the event!! Olorun Adeboye ooo!!! The fan beside me didn't stop me from sweating profusely. I briefly saw a clear vision of myself doing frog jump to the guard room. I quickly did the needful. 😁 He even took my number so that I would send the pictures to him directly.

Most generals are humble and simple human beings. Just don't take their simplicity for granted.

samonak:
You de mind bloody civilians wey no know say the CSM ( company sergeant Major) was junior to the officer even when they were in Jos

Before u reach the rank of CSM in the army u must have spent about 20 years in the army so he has more experience and probably even contacts of higher officers than the newly commissioned officers,if the NCO has a misdemeanor for example beat his wife at home and she reports to the Army na this same WO go drill am for guard room.
