Whenever we interrogate the roles a man like General Yakubu Gowon played in the history of Nigeria, it is time to be reminded how we made our diversity to work against us rather than for us.

Gowon is one of those giants of Nigeria’s history about whom you cannot discuss without reopening the unhealed sores of our past...

SAINT that saved Nigeria and destroyed the Biafran Cockroaches

SAINT! He treated the Ibos like a father. He flogged the hell out of them with his right hand and still pulled them back with the left. NO VICTOR NO VANQUISHED

Ibos should be grateful to this man

GENOCIDAL BLOOD-SUCKING SINNER

What is your problem with that? All I know is that, Gowon is an elder state man. Of what benefit would the answers to your question be to the nationhood?

Elder statesman my foot! He was simply used and dumped by Hausa/Fulani.

The seed he sowed 40 years ago has germinated. That's why the same Hausa/Fulani are slaughtering his kinsmen in Plateau like chicken everyday

Like the OP said, his name cannot be mentioned

without reopening the unhealed sores of our past...

Why judge? We are all sinners

Gowon is a refurbished sinner.

Saint! He is to Nigeria what Abraham Lincoln is to the United States. Both of them led their respective countries during their civil wars, fighting to bring back secessionist groups back. In Nigeria, Gowon fought and brought Biafra back to Nigeria. In the United States, Lincoln fought and brought back the Confederate States to the United States.
