General Ikponmwen: There was a lot of politics in the army
I joined the army as a cadet officer in 1968 through hard work and divine protection and I rose to generalship. As a professional, Brigadier General was of course not my target, my aim was to get to the highest rank in the
Military Garment Bags and I had all it takes to get there. My retirement was premature but I thank God that I came out hale and hearty with my good name, full of integrity.

Like I said before, when you are seen to be intelligent, when you are seen to be innovative and educated and when you are not perceived as a stooge, more so if you did not come from any of the big tribes, it is only God that took our people to high levels in the
