That act alone destroyed Nigeria in ways that can never fully be reversed. It introduced the let me take care of myself and not the country into the engine of national building (the civil service). His act and those of babangida(who introduced this same way of life into the national thinking and way of life) literally set this nation on a path of destruction which can never really be reversed. kingzizzy: |

Extremely courageous, visionary, self sacrificing, rective, dynamic, violent, impatient, foolhardy. This man was the inspirer of radical progressive governance in Nigeria. When he was Head of State , Nigeria was respected and feared. S. Africa , Zimbabwe would probably not be independent and free of apartheid without this man. |

tunde1200: The only man Ojukwu feared in the NA was his quiet , radical , emotional ex student Murtala Muhammed. Upon reflection maybe Nzeogwu and his well meaning band of soldiers should not have started killing Northern Emirs or maybe should have done same in the East for some balance. Soldiers like Muhammed were planted in the Army by the Sardauna for only one reason. The Ibos were extremely lucky that it was Gowon that became Head of State and not Murtala although as typical they still stupidly disrespect Gowon on social media. If Muhammed had been Head of State. God thank you that you in your omniscience did not allow it. I believe Ojukwu would not hacve even run away as the risk to a surrendering Biafra would have been infinite with Murtala . Ojukwu was sure with Jack , things were always calibrated . Anytime we see mis informed Ibo kids (lied to by their parents ) abusing Gowon we laugh sadly and knowingly. Small pikin no know anything |

kingzizzy: Yes Murtala rightful defeated a lot of Ibo rebel officers. There are many more in the NA to finish the job. He is still Nigeria's best leader by far and on many levels. Nigeria was alive vibrant and dynamic with him as Head of State. When you compare to the extremely dull and stupid Goodluck, the uninspiring Shonekan or the over-gentle Shagari you begin to understand the sayings "living dead" and "manhood living on" lol. |

Adminisher: Well, if you can defend a genocidal killer like Murtala Mohammed as a good leader then you better see your psychiatrist because all is not well with you upstairs |

kingzizzy: You are completely missed informed. Nzeogwu is my hero bit that guy stormed into Sardauna's residence and killed , not arrested and unharmed civilian . His buddies took Largema, Maimalari and so many officers of Northern extraction and killed them. I want you to imagine...it is not easy for Ibos to imagine ...but imagine what must be going through the minds of Hausa Fulani soldiers. Ask yourselves what they must be asking themselves, what their people must be asking of them. Anybody or people who don't have empathy are good as dead. At the time Murtala's troops were committing genocide do you think they felt they were killing human beings. And to think that Ojukwu also was sending a column of troops to conquer Lagos , so you know what terrible things the opposing Nigerian Army going through mid west must be thinking. In any case this man was barely 26 years old at this time he was young, sad and very very angry. Let me give you good advice. Anybody telling you about Biafra run away from them. |

thotsofnaij: Wrong wrong wrong. The people sacked were mostly corrupt. They were taking 10% on contracts, they racketed import licenses and imported cement, fish, meat, sugar but mostly cement that covered the whole of Apapa , Ijora and caused the kind of l port congestion never before seen in the third world. Thousands others had done more than 25 years of service when Muhammed sacked them in the purge. I was in primary school. To give you an example of the civil service in Nigeria. President Azikiwes father was an emoyee of the Nigerian Railways. So there were lots of dead woods. The purge helped a lot of young graduate civil servants to get promotion .At this time Murtala was driving an ordinary VW beetle and using a small office in Cabinet Office and later Fovant Barracks |
