But how many times do people apologise to Igbos/Biafrans Frankly Yorubas and other Nigerians are tired of apologising and have decided to move on I guess you all including the man I once respected Achebe do the same. Forget Nairaland, even though Igbos are at fault or not, Yorubas have given including Awolowo unreserved apology for something they did not do cuz of the bond and love. It is time for Igbos to soften their stony heart and accept our apology as brothers would do. |

^^^^^^^^ You mean signs of regret for the evil done by those men is now an apology? |

chosen04: ^^^^^^^^ Not a sign of regret but a sign of sympathy. You can call them all you like but at least they have done the honourable thing, not cuz of biafra but cuz of the civilian causalities. so now that the did is done, would Igbos move on or would they continue witchhurting people doing their civil duties. 1 Like |

@ Alj hareem, Do you think it is easy to forgive Evil act of such magnitude  do you know that there is no family in the whole igbo land that did not lose their loved ones in that war. It is not about verbal apology, but putting things in place to make sure igbos are fully incooperated into the society. The federal government has to start fixing the federal roads in all South eastern states and make sure there is Federal presence in all the region, they should map out like say 20 billion naira for total construction of the whole south-east, that is how it is done in a sane country. That igbos statered to have some sense of belonging in this hell hole called Nigeria is because Jonathan is in charge.... had it been a Yoruba man or Hausa man, things will still be the same as it used to be, what did Obasanjo the evil man did for the igbos, what did Yarua Dua did, though he was a nice person, but his kins men wouldn't let him be. igbos needs to be rehabilitation, that is the only way Ndigbo will forget all that happened, they shouldn't be sidelined in the scheme of things, else peace,harmony, progress,love,unity will continue to elude Nigeria. Thank you my brother. |

gerald28: @ Alj hareem, Do you think it is easy to forgive Evil act of such magnitude Yes I understand yes it is difficult but let me use you here if you don't mind. You were not born during the war, neither did you see the your loved one die as a result of the war so why are you inparticular angry ? Yes the only reason you are angry is because of the stories you read and told by your elders. They told you Awolowo and Gowon are evil people etc but have you search deep to find the situation they were in and how YOUR own leaders could have helped you ? gerald28: @ but putting things in place to make sure igbos are fully incooperated into the society. The federal government has to start fixing the federal roads in all South eastern states and make sure there is Federal presence in all the region, they should map out like say 20 billion naira for total construction of the whole south-east, that is how it is done in a sane country. What makes you think Igbos are not incooperated into the society ? It is a common Nigerian saying that if you go to a place and don't find an Igbo man then it is unsafe for people to live in their. From this saying couple with other multinational, governmental and private organisations having Igbos in large numbers in them, I guess it is safe to say they igbos are adequately represented in all spheres of the society unless of course greed wants to set in. But compare to the Yorubas, Hausas and Fulanis, Igbos are more represented. 20 billion !!!! The amount spent on the SEern region alone in a year is more than that so in fact 20 billion is too small. The problem lies with the government officals also from the SE IN THE SE. There is not much the FG can do. The only issue remaining is probably SE wants the capital to be based in their region. Yes I think some years down the line that would be done. gerald28: @ That igbos statered to have some sense of belonging in this hell hole called Nigeria is because Jonathan is in charge.... had it been a Yoruba man or Hausa man, things will still be the same as it used to be, what did Obasanjo the evil man did for the igbos, what did Yarua Dua did, though he was a nice person, but his kins men wouldn't let him be. igbos needs to be rehabilitation, that is the only way Ndigbo will forget all that happened, they shouldn't be sidelined in the scheme of things, else peace,harmony, progress,love,unity will continue to elude Nigeria. Thank you my brother. I think compare to all the past government, OBJ and Yaradua did well for the Igbos. If you disagree, then I would bring out facts to show you that the north is also being abandoned by GEJ in this admin and Yaradua abandoned the SW. We are all humans, we can't be perfect but only try to be. If you are the president today which I hope to see, you would focus on the SE more than other regions from the way you are talking. That is not how to run a country like Nigeria, you just have to try your best and pray that God helps you out. Yes some things need to change but it is a gradual process. The process would be fast if we focus on the issues affecting this nation like you pointed out not what a yoruba man or hausa or igbo man did. Achebe the man I once respected was wrong by doing the opposite. |

Quite refreshing to read a brilliantly written and intellectual article from a well exposed yoruba man. Very rare. Not the dummies littered in Nigeria that have had their brains blocked by ewedu. I need to really learn about that steve jobs story. very pathetic. Thumbs up Francis Adewale. Your article will put that azz wipe femi kayode called an article to eternal dustbin rest.

people don't get it 95%+ of Yoruba are pro-Awolowo. It could turn out that he was a pedophile or something...I suspect his approval rating would still be high. People use his name to campaign and run for elections in the SW, for pete's sake. There is literally nothing one can do to make yoruba denounce him. Especially since he is dead...people tend to get lionized more after death. Keep listening to Francis Adewale in the 5% while ignoring the opinion of the 95% |

Mr. Globe: The humiliation is the Igbo land would always be a cave, would always be abandoned, All Igbo men hoping to make it would have to flee the place and Igbos would never rule this country until the whole Igbos and ohaneze apologize for killing our leaders in January 19666.
