The Igbo People Buhari Would have trusted died in the Civil War. by Nobody: 8:42pm On Aug 27, 2015
Before some one throw stones, here my story.

If you observe the appointments of President Buhari, you would come to terms that majority of them were military personnel he knew while in the Military. Every other non Military appointees, if any, were his staff during his tenor as military head of states.

President Buhari was a great force in Nigeria in the civil war against the Biafra Nation of which the Igbos were the chief culprit.

Before the war, the Nigerian Army had already carried out cleansing of the Igbos in the army but those who were tipped by friends escaped and formed united with Ojukwu, the then Biafra Leader (This is only a story from a Biafra War Veteran and I have no proof of it).

The Civil war of 30 Months saw millions of Igbos and Biafrans dead. President Buhari was a great force in the Nigerian Military who won many ground against the Biafra Nation with the team lead by him. The Igbo lost their place in the Military.

President Buhari became the Head of state letter in the year, 1982 and was toppled by IBB in 1995.

During his short stay in office, he only knew a very few people from the east beside the popular politicians that absconded during the war. Many of those are dead safe some very few of which Ike Nwosu is one of them.

President Buhari in his mission of change has assured that he would make use of the best team, tested by him, unfortunately, the civil war denied the Igbo the chance of being tested some years back.

If anyone has a grudge against the appointment of president Buhari, they should hold it on the civil war.

The Igbos who make millions of naira outside the SE aren't agitating for Biafra. It's jobless fools, whose minds have been solely occupied by that wanderer we call Lucifer, that keep reading ethnicity into every headline.

Dim-witted fool.

I believe the post said "He would have trusted" not that he killed Ojukwu.

I would have said hanged the topic to "The Igbo People that Buhari would have trusted died during the civil war". But then you wouldn't have insulted me or make a contribution to the thread. Your contribution is registered.

If Almajiri are fools, GEJ musicplus have been the biggest fool to love them more than Buhari. But that is a great achievement in the book of posterity.

It takes someone with an Empty skull to recognise another...
U re better off financially yet ur erosion land looks like a dungeon

U re better off financially none of ur flat head brothers makes up 1 to 3 richest in africa

U re better off financially but folorunsho alakija can buy the whole south east region

U re better off financially ur brothers pushing drugs to asia for survival ,this year alone more than 10 flats head have faced firing squad

u re better off financially all ur flat head brothers troop into south west even with boko haram menace in north ur brothers still go there for survival

Keep living in self denial when u re suffering in abject poverty ..
Tell me how many igbos businessman today that make it in ur Cursed Land..?

Instead they ran away, like ekenedili is packing ur flat head brothers like sardines to south west everyday
Ur flat head brothers have being reduced to a level of ass licking Ijaw man a minority tribe in nigeria..

Ur guys re living a miserable life...living like sheeps with no sheperd..
Tell me the politician that is sellable in ur cursed region apart from rochas you guys called mallam
Common ijaw a minority have produced a president despite he is clueless..

You should be ashamed of ur miserable live and pray to God to remove the curse placed on ur tribe by tafa balewa

Go and put ur shanty house in order and stop washing ur dirty rags outside u miserable descendant of cursed tribe from erosion ravaged land of Biafra

princdebola201, you had the guts to brag against Igbos. You and your Yoruba tribe should be ashamed of yourselves for dare comparing Igbos with Yorubas.  

You should be ashamed of yourselves for being in the habit of using other regions to shield your cowardly mien. It's shameful that a typical Yoruba person cannot make his stand known without dragging some other tribes along. If it is not distorting history, it is ass-licking your slave masters by propagating lies of how your slave masters have always been peace-loving and accommodative and that it is the Igbos who provoke their host! Yet the Christian minorities and other Southerners in the North and in the Middle-belt continue are being maltreated and relegated to the background.
It is so disgusting and pathetic already!


You mentioned curse, what kind of curse are you referring to?
Is it the curse Alaafin of Oyo placed on the young braggard, Bode Thomas, for arrogantly insulting his office? Bode Thomas barked and barked like a dog till he kicked the bucket! Is that not the same way many Yorubas are barking on Igbo matter?

Is it the curse that made your god, Awolowo, to die in a miserable way?

Is it the curse that made your warrior, Benjamin Adekunle, a.k.a the scorpion, to eat his own excrement before he chose death in 2014? The was same Adekunle who mocked the pope, Red Cross, Caritas, World Council of Churches, UN etc.

What about your Field Marshall, MKO Abiola, who sunk containers of Christian materials and paid off the importer just to impress his slave masters in the North? Was it not this atrocious deed amongst many others that brought curse upon him which led him to his Waterloo? 

So, what curse are you referring to? 
Is it the curse on your slave masters or yourself? 

Despite Awolowo’s free education, is the South-West not the worst hit by illiteracy in the South? 
Whose region is being ravaged by internationally acclaimed drug peddlers, high-profile assassinations, frequent ritual-killings and treasury lootings?

Whose region is being ravaged by carnage, blood letting, terrible and strange diseases, abject poverty and penury?

I'm just trying to be as modest as possible with my choice of words. 

Let's go down memory lane.

After the civil war, your god, Awolowo, defrauded the Igbo Nation, robbing her of her enormous wealth and transferring same to you parasites. As the Finance Minister, Awo, gave a paltry £20 to Igbo men who proved they had an account in the bank. That was all the Igbo man started life with!

And in 1971/72 Awo and his criminal gang colluded and issued the indigenisation decree which compelled the British companies to give up ownership of their companies.
With the stolen money from Igbo men's sweat at their disposal Yorubas in conjunction with their Northern co-travellers were able to acquire the companies in Nigeria.

Igbos started life from ground zero after the civil war with just £20, with their lands devastated, farmlands destroyed, markets destroyed, schools levelled, hospitals broken-down, with hunger ravaging her people and the children at the mercy of  kwashiorkor. Inspite of these debilitating factors Igbos being a resilient people exerted themselves and within a short while they are at the top, competiting only with themselves.

As if the bank robbery was not enough and inspite of the 3Rs strategy mapped out to rehabilitate the Eastern region, Gowon and the subsequent regimes diverted the crude oil revenue from the East to develop Lagos State into a mega-city. And here you are bragging about same Lagos cum SW. Is Lagos State your father's land? Common migrants making noise as if they own Lagos. FYI, Lagos was built with the blood and sweat of every ethnic group in Nigeria! Take it or leave it! Nigeria or no Nigeria, you and your ilks CAN NOT do ANYTHING about it!

So far the Igbos have done well for themselves. The Igbos now boast of the best middle class, the most educated, the most enterprising, the most ambitious, goal getters and achievers.

Igbos survived the policy of strangulation imposed on them them by Gowon and Awolowo. And they are still surmounting some other criminal policies put in place by the criminal gang to checkmate the progress of the Igbos - quota system, federal character, admission catchment areas in schools, cut off marks for admission, fraudulent census figure, false voters register, lopsided local government areas and the likes.  

And now Igbos are more than equal to the Yorubas and their co-travellers who were bequeathed with Nigeria's wealth on a plater of gold. The criminal gang acquired virtually all oil wells. They cornered over 85% of the oil wells as their prize for the war they prosecuted against the Eastern region.

princdebola201, and you're here comparing yourself with that same man you robbed his wealth; the same people who would need to get higher scores than the Yorubas to gain admission into schools.

Just by being Igbo by birth, Igbo standards have become too high even amongst themselves, but that has not made them lose heart and in fact it brought out the best out of them. 

Inspite of the tortuous journey the Igbo man passed/passes through to achieve success the criminal system in place and the gang will not allow the Igbo man be. The gang is bitter and angry at the success of the Igbo man, that they use any given opportunity at their disposal to remind Igbos that they are the ones who accommodated them and therefore they should abide by their dictates, whims and caprices, including being coerced to vote the candidate of the host's choice in election.
But the Igbo man's resolve remains strong.

And you are here boasting of Folorunso Alakija who acquired her wealth from the commonwealth, from the crude oil in another man's backyard! It's a shame!

Before the 1967-70 civil war, an average Yoruba man did not measure up to the ever industrious Igboman. Even in the South-West Igbos were in the lead. Igbos were the first Black Vice Chancellor of the University of Ibadan, the first VC of the University of Lagos and the first Nigerian Rector of the then Yaba College of Technology in the South-West; the police was run by an Igbo IG; the military as a professional institution was run by brilliant Igbos; the first president of Nigeria and the first military ruler of Nigeria.


Nigeria economy assumed a downward trend when the gang acquired all Nigerian companies by virtue of indigenization decree of 1972. But they could not manage the companies instead they ruined, defrauded, liquidated, bankrupted and destroyed all the companies - that was the mother of destruction of Nigerian economy! The swindlers indeed bastardized the Nigerian economy. 
And to divert attention from their ineptitude and crass looting of the treasury they would use illogical reasoning to attempt to bamboozle other people while pointing accusing fingers elsewhere!

After more than 40 years, despite the stolen wealth, the respective regions of the criminal gang cannot be said to be transformed and be one of the enviest in the world. None of their cities could be likened to, say the least, Johannesburg!

With all the disadvantages Igbos faced and still face they rose from grass to grace and you are not even ashamed to compare them with treasury looters. 

It's not how far but how well!

Time shall tell...

When some one said he will work with only trusted officers, what does that mean? It simply means you must have worked with such a one and found him trustworthy.

Unfortunately he cannot remember any Igbo man he could trust. If he finally appoint any other Igbo man beside Ike Nwosu, it is because he decided to take a risk and he will do everything possible to monitor the person.

I do not blame Him for anything but the civil war.
