Joey82: u guyz supporting ihejirika do not seem to understand how the military operates.
the military is not a civil ministry so quit the comparisms.
there is nothing as important to a soldier as loyalty.
when high ranking officers, generals for that matter start questioning the authenticity of a leaders action, then there is problem.
and the report imho is not biased especially giving the reasons as stated by the report.
COAS can be biased in his promotions but he's got to apply diplomacy and he should also know that it will take time for igbo officers to catch up with their northern and western counterparts since the numbers of the later is by far higher in the rankings.
i just pray mutiny isnt brewing already

gboss4sure: These people are madt, Before Jonathan how many igbos where in the military? The hausa;s makes sure that igbo don't get men in the military now they have begin crying. Anyway Nigerians breaking up will have to start with someone.

eGuerrilla:

Your repeated rants marks you out as a loony desperately in need of medication.

When did I become an Igbo hater? When I started a discussion thread on a topic already in the public domain?

If only you knew who you are addressing, you'd know how redundant your flights of fantasy (you call them prayers) are.

Ozichim:
I think I understand what U mean, But U see, whoever start anything caos in this country will difintly regrete it. Becouse the country is now beyound any man's manipulation. the time has passed when some group of people will ill-inform and manipulate the public for his selfish reason! such fellow will difintly be consumed.

aduboy:
If you are part of the system then you should tell me if any Chief has done better than Ihejerika in recent times. Sincerely the write up is a hoax, there is no tension to with respect to this write up. Officers may grumble due to high corruption among the politicians but not because of promotions and postings of some particular officers that deserve it, there ethnicity not withstanding.

Joey82:

u seem not to understand what is brewing.
that article at op was not really meant for public consumption but for the advent of info tech, it got out.
these military guys live by the gun and they need not manipulate the public to feel right,
the question we should be asking ourselves is what backing does ihejirika have in the army to contain any kind of mutiny.
the military is still over populated with northern and western elements.
its not just abt promoting undeserved officers to more senior ranks.
its abt also recruiting well enof to have the backing.
in the end loyalty is what is more important and he seem to be loosing it

Real-Mccoy:

Nigeria runs a tribal army. Have you forgotten how Abacha and other northern soldiers systematically implicated SW generals in that coup? Have you forgotten how Dumbauzu was disrespecting GEJ because he was not a northerner? Be real with yourself, Nigeria is divided long before 1966 coup

aduboy:
I want to believe that you are not informed well enough on how the army command structure works otherwise the issue of loyality would not come up, are you saying the genarals will stop taking orders from the chief or the soldier will not take orders from his guard commander. There is still discipline in our Army irrespective of the 'military politics' for trust (something more than loyality). The chief as a leader puts his trusted collegues in sensitive positions and their tribes does not influence such positions. Some of us are privilaged to know reasons for such appointments and basically its not ethnicity.

gboss4sure:

See outpouring of foolishness. Oya take the award of Most Foolish Nlander. Na so dem brainwash you reach? IBB wey thief all of our money nko, That police pension man nko. OBJ himself nko, just to mention but a few, Are they igbos?. Cover your face in shame.

seanet01: Northern Nigerians have no moral right to complain about this.
They have taken other regions through this path of iniquity before and so should enjoy this fanfare while it last.

Joey82:

I aint saying the generals will stop taking orders from the chief.
but there's a possibility the aggrieved ones grudgingly take orders.
yes there is still discipline in spite of the politics but where does it stem form; from loyalty
and u are well lying if u say tribe does not influence such politics.
if there were so much discipline as u claim y are senior officers complaining.
in a typical military setting, this is mutiny already

Afam4eva: If this is true, they have to tell us those that were occupying the top positions before and why?
