Brigadier General Benjamin Adekunle (Black scorpion) bares it all in this exclusive interview. Happy reading

I keep saying that oil is the only thing sustaining Nigeria's unity. The day the oil well dries up, it becomes to your tent O Isreal.

Everyone knows oil is the main reasons for war under the disguise of religion

O yea! Looks like someone is biting his fingers now?

@Post

How can we read something that tiny?

Anyways, everyone knows that the only reason Nigeria is still in one piece is because of oil. If oil was not discovered in Nigeria, I believe the country would have split up a long time ago.

Black scorpion, dnt worry, no be only u!

Even ojukwu knew it was the oil in his greedy eyes that pushes him to a lost war!!

The cooin flips both ways so say something else.

Even 50 years later, people are still in denial of the fact that Ojukwu's eyes were on the oil in the region with the goal of lording over all the minority groups in biafra. Brilliant idea if it had worked. All other tales about what Ojukwu and his peeps were fighting for is just that - tales by the moonlight.

Indeed, ultimately, the war was about the oil.

Funny how Nigerians suffer from selective amnesia. What happened to the pogroms? How about the Aburi accord?

^^^Are you as thick as a plank or what? The heading of the article says "we fought for oyel and not Nigerias unity".....so how the hell did you misconstrue that to mean "we fought to protect the oyel-bearing communities from the 'Igbos', and they are now a wealthy advanced and fulfilled people that control their own destiny, with a pristine environment and beautiful villages"?

If i call you a slippery ....... now dem go say i don start be dat!

So where is your own oil spoil!

Let oil price crash first on international market or when every country and region has oil, nigeria will be over. Infact northern will be first to shoutout "southern you can go"
BTW @op the caption is only the imagination of the editor, how can one read the full story?

Why then did Ojukwu not surrender after the Niger Delta was lost? Biafrans would have been lost if Nigeria held on to the oil and stopped the war. The biggest battales of the war were fought after the Niger delta battles.

Yes o!
Black Scorpion is 100% right on this.

How can a man be so greedy and selfish to wanna lay claim of the oil that is supposed to be for the whole nation.

Ojukwu wanna carry our oil and Black Scorpion dealt with him. Shikena!

old enough to lay claim to any of the spermatozoans that fertilized the ovum that formed the zygote which developed to your embryo.

Ojuku exposed once again

The story of nigeria is about power,greed and covetousness.
The first republic -north /east alliance, total marginalization of SW
The first republic was about the northern attempt to lord it over the rest of the country via dubious and installing a vassal state
The first coup/counter coup was a northern vs eastern battle for supremacy using the SW as cannon fodder .
The biafra war was brought about by the northern pogroms and assisted/encouraged by the discovery of oil.
Ojukwu had is eyes on the oil in the Niger delta. So also did gowon.
The intervening period between gowon and Abacha saw the north dominate every strata of nigerian life.the SE loses badly.
The federal government fails to provide a recovery program for the southeast.the federal government fails to provide a development plan for any part of the country
The years of the vultures began
Nigeria continues in a downward spiral with assist from all ethnic nationalities.
OBJ stabilises the political system and power struggles
Yar adua gains power. Civilian to civilian transition.there is hope.
yaradua dies ,GEJ ascends the throne.
GEJ becomes the most divisive president the country has ever known.

Chukwuemeka Ojukwu also had his eye in oil, in fact in a desperate manner. All through the period the crises of 1966 and 1967 lasted he never declared the defunct Eastern Region the Republic of Biafra. He only did when the present day River and Bayelsa states, on one hand, and Cross River State and Akwa Ibom states on the other hand were excised from the Eastern Region and made Rivers State and South-Eastern State respectively. These states were created on May 27, three days later on May 30 Ojukwu declared Biafra.

[quote author=ndu_chucks].hope my igbo brothers are seeing what is going on in this forum?the yoruba people now creat accunt with igbo name!what a show of shame, inferiority complex,sabotuar,backstabers,why do they behave like sanke,i mean devil is batter than average of u people.

Oh yeah so the war was about oil? Well, it takes 2 sides to fight a war and the side that tried to usurp power and authority will always be apportioned the majority blames. Even if oil was a major factor, there are several other complementary major factors too! One war like that has laid down a marker and nipped several wars in the bud.

Who created those states and why? Was it Ijaw people. Of course not. They were not relevant to do so then and even now.
Have those states today done anything to rival Dubai? Of course not.

In fact those states have the most arrested men that instead of governing their state were looting tens of millions of dollars, forcing their youth to engage in kidnapping of Filipino boys.

The Igbo started it when they started using monikers of derogatory words against Yoruba. Have you not come across "ngbatic"?

Reason.
Yes, those states were not created by the Ijaw, the Ibibio, the Anang, the Ogoja, the Efik, the Ikwerre, the Ogoni, the Ndoni, the Kalabari, and so on that make them up. The Head of State then, Yakubu Gowon, wasn't from any of those tribes. The creation of these states which was in consonance with the move to allay the fears of domination of the minority by the majority Igbo had been on right from the late 1950s, which saw the setting up of the Willink Commission. That was why Maj. Isaac Adaka Boro, an Ijaw man, fought on the side of the 3 Marine Commando of the FG to completely free his people from the majority Igbo.

Well "Ola" , reports on the Great Ijaw personality aka Boro state the following:

"He fought on the side of the Federal Government but was killed by the Nigerian forces under mysterious circumstances in active service in 1968 at Ogu (near Okrika) in Rivers State, after successfully fighting for the Nigeria forces thinking that he was liberating the Niger Delta from the Biafran Forces from eastern Nigeria."

Ojukwu wasted lives because of Oil.He deceived his people into fighting war because of material things .

Malam would always be a malam. 1967 to 2013, boko has remained the same with the same tactics. The north is in no position to fight any war in 2013. It would be a massacre! Common building of ranches for their animals, they have failed to do. How are they going to fight a real war?
