Not sure a man who was IBBs deputy deserves to have his soul rest in peace...

Let's see three major events that happened when he was the 2-i-c:

Execution of Mamman Vatsa et. al
Execution of Gideon Orkar et. al
Annulment of June 12

Need I say more?
Anyway, May God forgive him for his sins, but while Nigerians may forgive, I hope as a people we never forget.

Very genteel guy and that's why IBB loved him forever due to his loyalty. I won't tar him with the IBB brush. May his soul RIP and to V and E, take heart.

I always looked at Gen Aikhomu as a gentleman, who was a figure-head and an Ibb/Abacha puppet. Never saw him as an authoritative figure. To me, he was just there to make up the numbers.
I just know him from the papers sha, those close to him will know better
Sorry to his family. may his soul rest in peace

Sometimes, i wonder why these people are still able to rear their heads and make speeches of any sort. Aikhomu contributed to the demise of many. all i can say sincerely is I hope God gives him whatever he deserves.
