Okenze Osuigwe:
Considering the type of experience we had with Awolowo, and for us to start any one then with a Yoruba man, we would be killed before he finished his tenure. What Awolowo did to us! I was in Enugu when he was released from prison and brought to Enugu.

He was imprisoned for treasonable felony, but Ojukwu released him. He got to Enugu, and in my presence while he was addressing the people, he said that once he got to Ibadan he was going to declare the Oduduwa Republic.

Very intelligent boy .
Clap for yourself.
From prison to rebel leader just like that.
No consultation.
No money
No troops ,few commanders and a divided society.
Declare war
Just because a scheming and greedy igbo want it
You folks are not the brightest bulb in the box

The intellectual midgetry exibited by the poster above is well noted.

ndu-Chucks
How far about your cattle?
Is it they doing fine?

doublewisdom: So the Igbos as 'bush' as they are stopped A 'sophisticated' yoruba's man presidential ambition? So power is not all about making noise like the oily heads tend to do?
IBB na correct inlaw.

debetmx:

ojukwu released Awolowo, who released Dr. Michael Okpara?

why do this old men from the land of the rising crime lie?

olabukola: So its true that Ojuku released Pa Awo from prison.

This thread does not do justice to Osuigwe's interview by focusing on the its most devisive element.

Frankly, given the treachery and grand betrayal which Awolowo unleashed on the Igbos, after they orchestrated Awolowo's release, escorted him safely out of the area, a contrary reaction by the Igbo people would have shown that they were not humans but heavenly beings.

To be quite honest with you, I can't blame the Igbos. Awolowo is also known to be the brainchild of the starvation policy which significantly contributed to the deaths of thousands of women and children during the civil war.

With friends like Awo, who needs enemies?

We were never friends with you slimy mofos.

Abi we are not talking about the same Awo that you ibos colluded with your NPC master to jail on trumped up charges?

Who needs friends like you Igbos?

drnoel: this man should speak for himself and not the whole igboland

babe_online: Interesting twist of events.

Igbos are big betrayers. How did Abiola offend you guys?? Was he the one that killed the 2m Igbos that died


These Nyamiri people ehn....

And to think they always cry victim....

At the bolded, his tribe. That's enough.

superstar1:

Which ojukwu released Awo?

Another of their many lies.

The eye old man sucks. They lobbied IBB to cancel the election and OBj, the albatross of the y1bosruled them for 8years.that is Yoruba sense.

He thought we will allow north to just annul our election. They can ever try it with us again.

It is by far easier for an Ashanti man to become the President of Nigeria, than for a y1bo man to smell the seat.

nku5: @OP- I'm very sorry for you that NL had to be the forum you chose to learn about your fatherland.

Your topic is the most hollow, intellectually desolate thing I have ever seen and that people (even the ones who live in nigeria) are shallow enough to jump on your bandwagon shows that nigerians are getting more and more daft. I cry for the future of this country

If a group of igbo hungry politicians in addition to the ones from other parts of the country (yorubaland inclusive) got into bed with IBB and showed "support" for the annulment of June 12, then what about the egba man ernest shonekan, a close kinsman of mko abiola who accepted the interim president joke of an office. What about the nadeco men who conceded to the interim govt joke in the first place.

I almost laughed my arse off when I read that this your topic is supposed to be some kind of response to my description of the contribution of some igbos to the June 12 struggle in another thread. Pathetic camel dung at best

Shymmexx once again accept my sincere condolences for your miseducation.

babe_online: @ Shymexx,

thanks for bringing this news out. At least we know now that betraying also runs in their blood...
