Yes! But they were not the only generals that were siblings! The Bamaiyis were brothers from the Zuru ethnic group in present day Kebbi State who enlisted into the army the same day and rose through the ranks same time.There was also this case of two major general siblings from Bayelsa State.

History as Army decorates Bayelsa’s Gagariga brothers as Major Generals from same family, same Artillery Corps

Used to live next to Abacha bunker guest house in Maitama around 1996-1998. Most evening, Abacha will drive himself in a Puegot 504 salon, along with Jeremiah Useni in the front, and Ishaya Bamaiyi and IGP Ibrahim Commoaise in the back, to play long tennis at the guest house. Abacha will stop to greet us in the street and ask how our parents were. Sometimes he hand us candies on their way out. Keep in mind, most us of then were aged 7-15 and children of military officers. That was when Abuja was small, fairly new, quiet, safe and had a military barrack culture, with military trucks, strike force security personnel and troops always moving 24/7.

You're not correct sir. Ishaya Bamaiya was the former CO of the guards Battalion in Keffi during the time of Buhari as HOS.

He later rose to prominence as COAS during Abacha govt after his exploits in containing the April 22 1990 uprising led by the late Major Gideon Orkar while serving as the brigade commander @ headquarters 9 Mechanised Infantry Brigade @ Ikeja.

His Elder brother-Maj.Gen. Musa Bamaiyi was the then notorious NDLEA chair during the same era.They were striking with their trademark bicycle handle like mouthstaches.

Two brothers who never lived in peace. Actually at a time the younger one complained that the senior one took his wife. Musa was the NDLEA chairman who went round car shops to seize cars on charges of drugs and money laundering.

I remembered when I went for the Nigerian army recruitment aptitude test at Ikeja cantonment.Some officers were calling names of selected candidates who were shortlisted for the aptitude test screen.One Fulani lieutenant was the one calling names in my state of origin.He couldn't pronounced the names of the candidates with English names fluently.He was just stuttering like Mr transmi..sorry transac..sorry informer..You all knew the former IG of police who was just misspelling words.
Na one Lance corporal collect the list from him and started calling the names
The olodo aboki lieutenant delayed us that year.
Who knows whether I for don die if to say I become soldier.

Long tennis - tennis played on a concrete surface
Lawn tennis - tennis played on grass. Lawn means grass
