Only 2 heros here.

Lt. Gen Sani Abacha ✅✅
Lt. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja. ✅✅

RIP to both of them.

Na wah o. See Yoruba everywhere...

Thank you for this, however, there are some officers in the list that their corps were not properly captured. Thus the following are what i know to be fact concerning some of the officers.


Gen Alwali KAZIR was an Artillery Officer
Gen Martin Luther Agwai was an Armour Officer
Gen Azubuike Ihejerika was an Engineer Officer

What about the other 200+ tribes that have not produced any service chief?

we have 3 tribes in NIGERIA.....others are sub tribes

You yourself, do you see any heroes there? Look at the state of the army and soldiers right now.

I would pick Lt Gen Sanni Abacha because he was able to protect the seat of power as COAS and also as CDS. He was also loyal to General IBB all his lifetime. I wish we can have majority of such people now! Lastly, the person who posted the news did a mistake about Lt Geneal Ihejirika corps. He was in Engineers, not infanty

Racoon:
Lt General Salisu Ibrahim is my best COAS. Followed by General Martin Luther Agwai, Major Mohammed Christian Ali and Lt General Sanni Abacha.

As would be expected, the infantry corps of the army( mother of all corps) really dominated and personalized the COAS position over the ages.

Please help me ask him if he saw an Edo, Efik, Urhobo or any other major ethnic group in the South there too..... to think the SE is the same region we are hearing are struggling to fill their quota for recruitment yet those that have been filling it on a steady still don't even have one COAS

COAS comes from NDA intake, not korofo intake

Them no dey use mouth talk coup. If only what involves in coup plot

Pootle:
military my first love....nigerians should thank their stars cos if to say i nd enter NDA e sure for me say i for later plan coup and i no go relinquish power till i kpai

How many of those tribe occupy a full geopolitical zone... When people say igbos are marginalised they usually mean south east

1/6 of every position in nigeria should be people from South East... If that's not the case it's marginalization

Yes oh

AndroBlaze:
Is Gowon the first Chief of Army Staff in Nigeria?

Lt General Ihejirika was in Engineer corps, not Infantry oh

Absolutely correct ny bro. Lt General Ihejirika was in engineer corps

ucheicon:
Correct some information. Chris Alli is from Kogi not Delta. Azubuike Ihejirika was an Engineers officer not Infantry. Aliyu Mohammed was actually an Infantry officer. He just spent alot of his career in senior Intelligence roles as a result of trust by his superiors and competence. An example of this is also Brig Gen Sabo,DMI under Abacha. He was an Infantry officer

He be like say you no sabi General Wushishi and General Aliyu Gusau

Only 2 heros here.

Lt. Gen Sani Abacha ✅✅
Lt. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja. ✅✅

RIP to both of them.

Please what’s the meaning of this infantry?

How many Igbo names did you see on that list?

But you blame the South East youths for shunning the ongoing military recruitment

Rest in Peace to General Lagbaja and Atahiru.
Only God knows what exactly killed them in office.
Any official News in Nigeria don't have NAFDAC number.
They are all brave Soldiers apart from Tukur Burutia that so many of our young and promising Soldiers died under his watch in the North East and North West.
They need to probe the tenure of that man.

No one from Kwara

Lt Gen Sanni Abacha..."85 to 1990.
Security stability during his period was uncommon...all west African countries were under his watch.

my uncle knew what i was capable of he was a brigadier he told them to never allow me nor sit for the exam after the first trial, as a kid in the barrack every one then believe i will surely the military because the moral excess then bro

Where is late Jones arogbofa in all this?

MightySparrow:
Truly Igbo is marginalized.

David Ejoor is Urhobo.

my grand father

Am not a Tinubu fan. . But I love the way the way the man has been able to stamp names of Yoruba people in major power roles in the nation.

The man no send anybody.

Look at the list therein, it was until Tinubu came that you could see a Yoruba name there (apart from no. 6).

See NNPC leadership overhaul, I love what he did there. Same in many other key places.

Hausa and Fulanis have permeated everywhere, and turned those systems upside down. Let others try too.

Only lions can have any meaningful impact in tough places like Nigeria.

Abacha and Ihejirika

Only 6 out of 28 are from the south

Yungproducer:
Good info and for anyone into music and stays in lagos island make we link I’m a music producer

How much do you charge?

Smartcitizen:
The best Chief of Army staff in Nigeria is Gen Azubike Ihejirika who under his regime Nigeria never lost any local government to BOKO HARAM ( according to Baba Jide Otitoju of TVC).

This man was so ruthless to BOKO HARAM that the northern leaders were crying up and down threatening to drag him to ICJ.

You said it all....he was even going to the theatre of war fighting n directing the fights against boko haram then in Borno state until the radicals in the North called for his removal!


It was under him that BUHARI made the useless statement, AN ATTACK ON BOKO HARAM IS AN ATTACK ON THE NORTH.

It was under this man that the army dealt a big blow to all the criminal kidnapping gangs terrorising Abia State and Abia became peaceful again.

Let's give honor to who honor is due.

God bless you Gen Azubike Ihejirika.

👍👍👍👍

That's Nigeria's best COAS so far followed by Attahiru

Why did you do that?
