Andre Uweh: I do not know where you are pulling the notion that Major Uchendu was a Divisional commander. The ambush at Abagana did not involve entire Brigade talk less of Division. At best, Major Uchendu could have been a battalion commander. It is not the issue of who should get the credit or not but arrange historical facts accordingly. |

@ Dede. The Biafran command on that fateful day that ambushed Nigeria's second div at Abagana was led by one certain Major Uchendu. He is the hero of that ambush and I've recently discussed that with Col Okwechime. Do you want his contact?. 1 Like |

Andre Uweh:if i display any stupidity, that doesn't mean you should display a worse stupidity sir! You shouldn't have exhibited and irrelevance if you don't want the irrelevance to be questioned sir! Even from what you said, the bomb caused massive death of the enemies seems to show you seem to be in the beer parlour discussing the issue sir! |

Tolexander: if i display any stupidity, that doesn't mean you should display a worse stupidity sir!Prove me wrong that the weapons did not cause massive havoc on the opposing side. The weapons were manufactured locally and the team that produced the deadly weapons was led by Prof Ezekwe.. Anyway, since you are here to learn, Prof Ezekwe was later hired by the U.S. Gen Babangida recalled him from the U.S and made him a minister in 1997. He is my hero. Take it or leave it. 1 Like |

Andre Uweh:sure, a weapon is meant to cause havoc! But what i adrenergically refuse to swallow and digest is the adjective MASSIVE! |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by AndreUweh(m): 11:22pm On Mar 28, 2013 |
Tolexander: sure, a weapon is meant to cause havoc!When you produce weapons that destroys a convoy of 96 vehicles, is that not massive?. See the photograph once again. It was a massive destruction of Gen M. Mohammed's div at Abagana. Are you learning?. 2 Likes |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Tolexander: 8:44am On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:the number of vehicles an seeing here are not even up to 10 let alone 96. Yes! Am learning to conform to your hyperbole sir. |

Tolexander: the number of vehicles an seeing here are not even up to 10 let alone 96.Why are you making a mockery of yourself in this thread. At first you said that the weapons developed locally in Biafra were capable of killing only flies. I responded by posting photographs of the destruction of the mass weapon. What else do you want?. You want photos of Biafra's destruction of 96 vehicles as if your fathers were able to develop such type of cameras in the 60's. This thread is about Biafran heroes, so get out of here as yo know none of them. SCRAM AND STOP DERAILING THE THREAD. 1 Like 1 Share |

Alexander Madiebo - I have got his book about the Biafran war.. |

Dede1: Who's Major Uchendu?? |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Nobody: 12:45pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
I think the Major Effiong or something guy that led the Nigerian forces through an ambush of Biafran soldiers and fought fearlessly to get his battalion safely back to Port Harcourt deserves an eagle heart or Field Marshal status for that... He's definitely one of the bravest soldiers ever to walk this planet... only Lt. Gen. Vasiliy Chuikov was greater than him... |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by AndreUweh(m): 12:46pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
shymexx: Alexander Madiebo - I have got his book about the Biafran war..Major gen Madiebo wrote extensively about Major Uchendu on that book, page 225. ''The Nig Rev and the Biafran war''. Major Uchendu is a great hero but has not been giving his rightful place in Biafran history. This is according to my friend and Col Okwechime. 2 Likes |

Am beggining to respect you again like those your early days in nairaland. I wonder why you changed later. Keep it coming Shymexx |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Nobody: 12:50pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh: Lmao... I changed because I just couldn't withstand the barrage of malicious attacks I was getting from everyone for just being Yoruba... However, change is the only constant thing in life... |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Dede1(m): 12:51pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh: @ Dede. Please tell Col Mike Okwechime that Dede 1 said that the Abagana did not involve entire 2nd Division of Nigeria army. It was elements of 4th and 6th Brigades led by Murtala Mohamed and Musa Yar adua who attempted to breach the stronghold of Biafran 11th Division at Onicha through Idah. While the major force was allowed to proceed toward Onicha, the Biafrans ambushed the major S&T columns and cut off the link to Idah. |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Dede1(m): 12:58pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh: I do not doubt the bravery of one Major Uchendu as I will not take anything from Madiebo as gospel. After all, it was Madiebo who claimed in his book that 68th Brigade of “S” Division of Biafran army was a battalion. |

Dk Tiger Ihetu One of the greatest fighters to come out of Africa. A two-time undisputed world middleweight champion. Yet he joined the Biafran Army to defend his homeland. Tiger was appointed by her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11, but he returned his insignia as a protest for what he perceived as a lack of support by Great Britain to the Biafran cause. RIP our heroic champion. 4 Likes

Andre Uweh:you gat no point! First world war was fought between 1914-1918, 2nd world war was fought between 1939-1945, korean war was fought between 1950-1953. These wars were fought before the biafran war and they had a better camera view of the landscape of the affected place. |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by AndreUweh(m): 3:43pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Tolexander: you gat no point!Anyway, you have learnt that weapons developed indigenously by Biafra could not hurt only flies as you believed but destroyed humans, properties and convoys. Now back to the thread. I have named 4 Biafran heroes out of my original 32. Name yours and stop seeking for cheap attention. Must you comment on any thread that you haven't got the intelligence to do so?. |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Tolexander: 4:35pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:if you feel like seeing my own list, then go to the front page to view the two names i mentioned. Seeking attention from who? Are you seun or any of the moderators? Obviously you are an entity like any other member here. Just want you to understand this isn't a beer parlour where you can just be spewing anything sir! |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by AndreUweh(m): 8:19pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Tolexander: General Benjamin Maja Adekunle.The above names are not heroes of Biafra, surely, you are here to play to the gallery . Scram |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by ekoilee: 8:36pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh: Which Biafran hero could have done this?. So you people are finally admitting that it really was a war and you people kill other people equally and not the silly victim and sissy drama you engage in everyday... When you people kill and perpetrate your atrocities,you are heroes, but when it comes to other people, it's genocide and other dumb nonsense... |

*556#:The above idiotic post shouldn't be here. Please don't derail. |
Re: Discussing Some Fogetten Heroes Of Biafra by Nobody: 9:39pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
Andre Uweh: Idiotic? Thesame way your foolish brothers driven by thirst for power went on killing every other person but igbos and called it revolution? Here you have it again. *556#: Keep on displaying your stupidity and call it igbo sense or whatever. |

eko ilee: You obviously have no evidence or sources of this misinformation you just farted across cyberspace. There were no atrocities in the midwest and please do not copy and paste omoigui.com. Come up with some respectable sources. |
