Which defensive side? You guys were the instigators. There was a tendency back then not to reprove people like abalife but to hail him.
If some dude puts up a tribalistic thread against Igbos, Igbo people will automatically say he's Yoruba. How paranoid can you guys get?

Afam:

PLEASE EVERY YORUBA GUY ON THIS THREAD AM BEGGING FOR FORGIVENESS ON MY KNEES. ALL MY RANTIMGS AGAINST YOU I RECANT.

Afam:

The same truth that you claimed you knew me for is the same truth that I am stating now.

Your comments about Ojukwu are in bad taste and are meant to insult not just him but the people he defended while other Nigerians were killing them without any end in sight.

I am surprised at your comments and it seems to me that thus far you had succeeded in masking your hatred for the Igbos.

One more, thing you are not in any position to advise or recommend to the Igbos how Ojukwu should be regarded.

For starters, he never stole anyone's money as he even used his father's money to defend the Igbos. Do not forget the fact that his father was about the richest man in Nigeria.

babapupa:

One of the sad consequences of war is losing. Deal with it.

It's already been proven, you can not touch Yoruba people , unless you want your a!s!S whooped all over again of course.

Btw, what did Yoruba people sow?

EzeUche:

You Yorubas did not do anything. It was the Hausa. You all are not warriors. You hide behind the Hausa. That is why so many of your people are being wiped out in Jos than any other tribe. They know not bring that craziness with the IGBO!

you wish.igbos were instigators back then?i laugh

the same paranoid way some guys here will talk rubbish about lagos some fools here will automatically assume the person that said that is iggo

You people have more Igbo miscreants than the others who are more likely to leave derogatory remarks!!! None of you trying to act saintly or should I say devoid of bias EVER puts your brothers in order but rather make their threads flourish.

oyb:

oga - u guys need to let this go - they say familiarity breeds contempt. you are not the only ones who have lost a secession war.

rwanda is far fresher, and was far more horrific, but they are moving on.

instead every other day - we are swamped with nostalgia threads - Ojukwu the hero - its rats that desert a sinking ship, not the captain



biafra lost the war. there are no tactics that were emplyed by nigeria that biafra would not have emplyed if they had the opportunity. thats what war is - kick your enemy when he is down and make sure he doesn't get up. no rule, geneva convention or otherwise.

war is a nasty brutish business

there is no justification for the retaliatory pogroms in the north, but for me - it was almost the same issue as seceding, refusing to take the time to evaluate the possible consequnces of an action. did ironsi and co really think that hausas would take the killing of their spiritual leader lying down? in the same way, did the architects of biafra think secession would be
bloodless.has that happened anywhere?

was americas secession bloodless?

I apologize, but really, most of us are tired. leave the past and focus on the future.


a biafra today - will be a landlocked country. further more, it will not change anything, unless the thousands of ibos in what is left of nigeria decide to migrate back home - which they won't.

oyb,

I can understand when crassly ignorant simpletons and charlatans like reporter?, babapupa and akigbemaru make their infantile comments about a war that illuminates their ignorance of all things Biafra and their hatred of Ndi-Igbo, but this coming from you? Somebody else probably posted with your username. Interesting though.

reporter?:

You folks are always quick to claim victim when people reciprocate your disparaging comments about Yoruba.
No one hates you, it is rants from your kinsmen that provoke responses.
Some of your folks are not secured in their own skin.  Always wanting to deride Yoruba to hype themselves.

Do you expect us to fold our hands while your keyboard militants continue to disparage everything Yoruba?
Look inside before you blame others. Do you not hear the chants of revenge- revenge- revenge on Yoruba from your Internet militants?
Revenge for what.
Mekuxx, Metal-gong, Wilywily are the culprits in this whole saga.

As for Biafra, you folks have to come to terms with it.  Continue or discontinue the project is the prerogative of
your people; however, do not force it down our throat and call us traitors when we never planned Biafra with Okujwu.
The Eastern assembly leadership  is solely responsible for Biafra secession and not Yoruba, every Biafran apologist
must come to terms with that fact.

As for people comparing Rwanda moving forward vis a vis nigeria do we forget that their has been reconciliations in rwanda and people tried for war crimes  

Are people also aware that the progrom fields then have been turned in to some kind of mesuem so that people can learn about their past?

Our own na too sweep everything under the carpet and move forward thinking that we will indeed move forward   Funny nigeria

RichyBlacK:

riffraff or whatever you call yourself,

Don't join issues with me, I don't have the energy to discuss with akamu-brained loonies. Go on with your toddler rants.

akigbemaru:

No wonder, just because you would have to pass through Ekiti first if you are coming to SW, they killed and ate all our Idanre monkeys. Before Igbo, our Idanre monkeys are 1,000,000 super-strong, now if you go to Idanre, you will be surprised to find zero monkey.

doyin13:

I won't claim to be the most knowledgable about the war. Mine is just an inquiry.

But does any Igbo person feel perhaps Ojukwu might have surrendered earlier
than he did?

ndu_chucks:

This is a very valid question. I'd be very much interested in the thoughts of well meaning and level headed Igbo posters. There may actually be a valid reason why Ojukwu chose to allow millions of people to die instead of surrendering early. No one has answered that question for me - most responders have chosen to rather tell us why Ojukwu is the leader of Igbos today.

Ojukwu is indeed the Igbo leader. He is infact the most powerful Igbo man alive in Nigeria today, he is loved and revered by the Igbos.

But why did he not surrender as soon as it became obvious that Biafra had been blockaded?  If this was a mistake, why can't any of our Igbo posters just say so? The man is only human, one mistake cannot take away his greatness.

Of all the great scientist Africa has produced, our own Biafra man. PROF.Philip Emeagwali PHD is the best of the best (fraud) as can be attested to by my fellow kins man below. No yoruba man can beat his records, patents and publications.

Afam:

Can you honestly state that you have not seen an answer to that question before even when it was asked by you or are you simply blinded by hate that you deny or pretend you have not been answered before?

I can imagine how hatred must have eaten deep into the souls of some of us here.

EzeUche:

Biafra would never be landlocked. As long as we Igbos claim the Igbo speaking areas, the include Port Harcourt. However, the Igbo and our ingenuity will still be successful even if we landlocked.
