Ernest Sisei Ikoli Foundation honours brave Nigerian Army Officer

Tributes have continued to be showered on Lt Col George Otonbara Ikoli as those who knew him lamented his demise.

Ernest Sisei Ikoli Foundation is not an exception.

The Foundation in a statement in Lagos described Otonbara Ikoli as a valiant officer and gentleman.

‘’In solemn remembrance of the Nigerian Army C130 Hercules plane crash that occurred 32 years ago, we gather to pay tribute to a brave Nigerian Army Officer and noble gentleman’’

The statement signed by renowned lawyer, Antony George-Ikoli recalled the tragic afternoon of September 26, 1992, at Ejigbo, a suburb of Lagos, Nigeria that Lt Col George Otonbara Ikoli , a scion of the esteemed Ernest Ikoli Dynasty lost his life along with 158 of his comrades when he led them on what was supposed to be a routine training exercise.

It emphasized Colonel Ikoli’s bravery, sacrifices, leadership qualities and strong human connections.

‘’Lt Col Ikoli’s bravery and sacrifices as well as his parting words on that fateful morning ‘’come what may, I will not abandon my men’’ remain etched in our hearts as an enduring symbol of courage and representative of the patriotic cloth from which he was cut’’

It also underscored happier memories during the days of Lt Col George Otonbara Ikoli’s life on earth.

‘’His memory remains evergreen as we cling steadfastly to recollections of happier times and ponder fleetingly on the good times that may have been. In our hearts and minds, he will remain a hero, soldier and gentleman for all eternity’’
