what's the meaning of agbor in Igbo?
what is ogwuashi ukwu in Edo?
what is enuani in Edo?
what is aniocha in Edo?
what is oshimmili in Edo?
what is asaba in Edo?
what is igbuzo in Edo?

agbor is a border town between Edo and Igbo so there must have been a tongue mix. however, they are majorly Igbo.

Go to their facebook page and see their history and who dey are, come back here and tell us what you observe.

and if you see anybody mention the word bini, i will give up
my brother don't mind them, they are attention-seekers. every seasoned historian knows we have Midwest igbos or bendel Igbo or anioma.

Stop spreading your ignorance in the blogosphere. Those tribalistic coup plotters only wanted to grab power and confirm zik's prophecy of Igbo ruling Africa. It only backfired. Ironsi was also carrying out his Igbo agenda by filling every position with igbos and not executing the coup plotters.

Saying they wanted to install awolowo is moronic.

Yes, he was the only military officer who went to Congo and other peace keeping missions
He was the only officer who sat in a big office in Congo and ordered men to battles and operations for which he won medals
He was the only officer who claimed victories for things foot soldiers did while he wore a big rank with siren blowing everywhere he went.

When it came to actually showing blatant bravery what did he do?
No other person in that era was directly more responsible than the head of state Ironsi who by his culpability, ineffectiveness and cowardice led to the events which caused the Nigerian civil war that claimed millions of lives among his own people and other Nigerians.

Some of the military officers who died and their families are well known to me till this day, so please for their sake do not insult our intelligence with your rubbish defense of Ironsi.

Ironsi knew it himself, he was a desk-clerk head of state, a spineless minion and useless military officer!
maybe you were there in Congo where he was "desk clerking". he was also "desk clerking" when he was appointed queen Elizabeth's equerry. he was a "desk clerk" when he fought bravely in world war 2. he was a "desk clerk" went he was appointed sir MacPherson ADC... he was a "desk clerk" when he aborted the coup in Lagos.

malakaimoscondo:
but why didd he spare the coupplotters?i wnt to knw pls i never mean any harm
he didn't spare the coup plotters, he jailed them while they awaited trial proceedings. some sections of the country like the press media and formidable student unions at the time actually hailed them as revolutionists, so it was a tricky situation.

what the northerners wanted was a speedy execution. Ironsi disagreed. he promoted northern military officers to envying heights and even had some as his confidant.

immature people discussing what they know little or nothing about.

somehow i thank God Nigeria is suffering under this jihadist government so that their brains can be reformatted. Nigerians are so so myopic. exaggerating ironsi's mistakes won't conceal the hate and envy you lots have had for sincere and honest men like ironsi and fajuyi.

ironsi's only crime was not executing the couppplotters immediately and also, that he was IGBO.

anybody saying otherwise is just a zombie.

BusinessUzoma Dozie - Diamond Bank And Lessons To Learn by superlightning(op): 10:17pm On Dec 23, 2018
He had it all. He studied abroad. His father owned the bank. He had requisite banking experience. He was made the CEO of the bank which had attained strong international status. So what went wrong?

Was Dozie Snr. wrong by appointing his son, Dozie Jnr. as the CEO Diamond Bank?

Making sound business decisions and navigating Nigeria's business terrain is not necessarily something you learn from schools abroad or from the comfort zone of being shielded by an "all-powerful" dad.

Dozie Snr. believed his son, Uzoma, had learnt all the tricks there is to learn in the trade, but recent news of merger-acquistion of the bank by another bank seems to indicate that there was something uzoma thought he could handle but couldn't.

how creative was uzoma?

how innovative was uzoma?

how discerning was his business acumen?

was he thinking his precedessors had done all the work that needed to be done?

why was he not able to execute measures for the bank's sustainability?

From what we now see, mergers and acquisitions seem to be the only attempt uzoma could think of in saving his father's (and invariably his own) banking business empire.

would he say it is CBN's fault or the customer's fault or politicians fault? uzoma has no excuse. uzoma was over hyped and overestimated.

uzoma clearly didn't have a full grasp on how the navigate Nigeria's aggressive business terrain. he was too "buttie" for it. Ajebutter in the making. A true silver spoonie.

come January next year, there will be job less, salary cuts and demotions. it is so sad to be a diamond Banker right now. well, let's pray the merger cum acquisition takes banking to a higher level in Nigeria.
