What quality music does he make? He is a great producer but as it is right now Neither of Dbanj and Tiwa need him.

Who is runtown? I dont know him (honestly)

Everybody is bound to have enemies no matter what. Even your Jesus had enemies so there will always be hateful comments. Oil is an essential product that Nigerians cant do without so she has to be applauded cos not everybody is into that business but when it comes to phones and other things anybody that is inemterested can take it up.

Can you tell me why you think ikeji is more successful than seu.n? His only drawback is that he doesn't use AdSense but they don't even come close in terms of traffick.

Yes, I care for them, that's is why I will always refer to Robert Goldstein 's letter. All your blackmail against awolowo is total futile. The same way you people have been crying victim of how how they ceased your properties in Lagos. Of which many of you that are truthful here have said how they returned their properties, including money for rent. How come you did not ask me who Robert is to ojukwu. And why he wrote that letter n resign from working with him? Now, if I bring the story written by the son of the land in midwest, you that asked for it will still call it lie. Was Midwest ever being part of East before the war. Why did you people like covering your atrocities and cry victims about yours. Is it cos of defeat or what. If you people had won, would all this cries happens. To know the atrocities of your soldiers against innocent n defenseless citizens of the people of Midwest. Go and read Midwest invasion of 1967.

No matter how you people cry victim, we have the history.

Honestly, you guys are so despicable and vile!

In your attempt at revisionism and trying to portray a people whose only 'crime' is that they're sick and tired of sharing the same country with scum, you resort to all manner of tall tales concocted in your lab of propaganda and falsehood!

How come the reports of so called Biafran 'atrocities' in your first link are being made known by a man who in all likelihood wasn't a participant in the war and who sounds like he's cut from the very same cloth as Itse Sagay (ie, dislikes Igbos)! I scanned your first link looking for the independent/neutral source of the authors allegations but found none! Probably he either imagines the stuff he wrote, or he was told so by another equally insecure bigot!

If such atrocities were actually committed by Biafran soldiers, doesn't it stand to reason that the federal gov't of the day would have made capital out of it to show to the whole world Biafran 'aggression' and 'wickedness'? This would have been a surefire way to win even more Midwesterners over to their side, don't you think? Wouldn't there be newspaper reports on such 'atrocities' that can be referred to or quoted?

Instead, what we have (your second link is proof of this as well) is someone, twenty years after the uncivil war, waking up in the morning and sitting down in their study to cook up a yarn worthy of the Pulitzer prize for literature!

Given how evil the federal gov't of the time was (the fulani were actually pulling the strings behind the scene...forget that dumb christian called Gowon being HoS), it wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility to suggest that they actually carried out a couple of atrocities in the Midwest themselves and then turned around to blame the Biafrans!....They're that devious!! It's a tried and tested technique that's still in use even till today where you see mercenaries, bandits and foreign terrorists wearing the Nigerian army uniform to commit unspeakable evil on civilians (most of whom are christians and middle-beltans)!

Here are a few INDEPENDENT links on the Nigerian atrocities in Biafra...not conjecture, tales-by-moonlight, or malaria-induced hallucinations!:

The Government has not thought it necessary to underline that the last big arms agreement was accompanied by a U0 million interest-free loan to the Nigerian government (ostensibly for telephones) and that to all intents and purposes

we are giving these arms to the Nigerians. The only other justification which I have heard ad- vanced by ordinary people with " an awareness of what is happening is that if we do not support the Nigerians in their efforts to crush Biafran

nationhood and extinguish as many Ibos as are necessary for this purpose, then we shall lose our investments in Nigeria, variously estimated at between £200 million and £1.000 million.

Although photographs of the atrocities being perpetrated in Biafra have appeared in most newspapers, the general impression given by the captions and news coverage is that the children are starving to death as the result of a famine brought about by the war. Not a single newspaper has seen fit to point out that the children are dying as the direct and in- tended result of a siege which is supported by the British government, by the official opposi- tion party and by very nearly every Common- wealth correspondent in Fleet Street.

However, since the failure of the 'quick kill,' Nigeria has returned to a siege strategy. Possibly this siege is intended to last only as long as is necessary for the Nigerians to secure another massive arms build-up, but the indications are otherwise. A siege is far cheaper and less dangerous to the fragile structure of Nigerian unity. Anybody can now see that a siege has no hope of working (at any rate until three quarters of the Biafrans are dead) and anybody at all interested in the matter is now in a posi- tion to decide that the only logical intention behind the resumption of siege tactics is a genocidal one. Visitors to Nigeria invariably come away convinced that no such intention

Atrocities (1966-1970)

The first phase of violence occurred from May 29 to September 29, 1966, when organized killings of Igbo communities took place in northern and western Nigeria. The ancestral land of the Igbo is in eastern Nigeria, but communities lived in northern areas as well. The traditionally northern ethnic communities resented the Igbo for dominating commerce and for their perceived desire to become the new rulers of independent Nigeria.[i] The proximate cause of the first wave of inter-communal violence seems to have been a January 1966 military coup led by a small group of junior southern (and primarily Igbo) Nigerian officers, which led to the killing of several prominent northern politicians.[ii] In the months that followed, ethnically targeted attacks accompanied by mob violence unfolded in three main waves throughout the northern and western regions. The first and third wave targeted Igbo civilians living outside the east. Between those waves soldiers in July 1966, there was a counter-coup, during which Igbo officers and men were systematically slaughtered.[iii] The extent to which Nigerian state officials organized and coordinated the killings remains disputed.[iv] General Yakubu Gowon, named Nigerian Head of State following the counter-coup, spoke out against the anti-Igbo violence, but the national government failed to assert its authority to effectively end the killings. Though death tolls have not been well documented, it is estimated that a minimum of 3,000 and a maximum of 30,000 Igbos living in northern Nigeria were killed during these attacks.[v]

1966 Coup: “THE IGBOS NOW VINDICATED AND EXONERATED”
Olusegun Obasanjo.

"Let the truth be told. The People involved in that so called 1966 “Igbo coup” were:

1. Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu (Midwest Region Igbo)

2. Major Adewale Ademoyega (Western Region – Yoruba), author of “Why we struck”

3. Capt. G. Adeleke (Western Region – Yoruba).

4. Maj. Ifeajuna (Midwestern Region – Igbo).

5. Lt. Fola Oyewole (Western Region – Yoruba), author of “The reluctant rebel”.

6. *Lt. Robert (Bob) Egbiko* (Midwestern Region – Ishan).

7. Lt. Tijani Katsina (Northern Region – Hausa/Fulani).

8. Lt. O. Olafemiyan (Western Region – Yoruba).

9. Capt. Gibson Jalo (Northern Region – Bachama).

10. Capt. Swanton (Northern Region – Middle Belt).

11. Lt. Hope Harris Eghagha (Midwest – Urhobo).

12. Lt. Dag Warribor (Midwest – Ijaw)

13. 2nd Lt. Saleh Dambo (Northern Nigeria -Hausa)

14. 2nd Lt. John Atom Kpera (Northern Nigeria-Tiv).

The reason for calling the 1966 Coup an Igbo exercise is because the government of Nigeria has refused teaching Nigerian History in our schools. And core North has been busy misinforming Nigerians that the 1966 coup was an Igbo coup.
……………………………………….................................
Yoruba – Igbo fact sheet. This article has no tribal sentiments. Pls add ur own facts if u have any. History will always tell us what happened.

1. Azikiwe defeated Awolowo to become the first Nigerian Premier of Western Nigeria (present Southwest plus Edo and Delta States). Awolowo instead of forming Opposition, rather formed Egbe Omo Yoruba and used it to intimidate Yorubas that won election on NCNC platform to cross carpet and join him against Azikiwe. This was the first parliamentary coup in Nigeria.

2. Awolowo from then on, started indoctrination of Yorubas against the “threat of Igbo domination”. That is how the incurable seed of fear of Igbos was sown in the psychic of Yorubas which Yorubas later sold to other groups through Yoruba control of the media for decades.

3. Alhaji Tafawa Balewa , Nigeria ‘s first Prime minister could not tolerate Awolowo’s treacherous and inordinate ambition of acquiring political power by all means and at any cost. So, he threw Awolowo into prison for treason.

4. Samuel Ladoke Akintola who replaced Awolowo as Premier of Western Nigeria tried to destroy Awolowo’s political grip on Yorubaland by forming a party to takeover Western Nigeria in alliance with the Hausa-Fulani oligarch who Awolowo despised as a backward race. Consequently, Yorubaland went ablaze in revolt against Akintola’s plot. Law and order completely broke down in Western Nigeria. Wole Soyinka wore a mask and forced announcers at Western Nigeria Broadcasting Corporation to declare that Akintola’s government was a fraud.

5. Yet, Tafawa Balewa refused to declare state of emergency in Western Nigeria in order to keep Akintola as a proxy for Hausa-Fulani interest. This was the MAIN reason Yoruba graduates in the Army were the brains behind the coup led by Chukwuma Nzeogwu who happened to be Igbo.

6. As Wole Soyinka and even Obasanjo acknowledged, Nzeogwu ‘s coup was widely accepted by a vast majority of Nigerians across regional, religious and ethnic divides. But the dissatisfied Hausa-Fulani oligarchy who had majority in Nigerian Army infantry used their puppets, Yakubu Gowon, Theophilus Danjuma and co to overthrow General Ironsi.

7. In order to win support of Yorubas, Gowon released Awolowo from prison. The Hausa-Fulani knew Awolowo’s fear of Igbo as the only group that stood against his ambition to power. Gowon therefore quickly made a deal with Awolowo which in effect was that power would rotate between the North and the West (Hausa-Fulani and Yoruba) in post war Nigeria if Awolowo convinced Yorubas to join the North in fighting Igbos.

8. The Nigerian Army was consequently split into two divisions: the northern sector division commanded by Hausa-Fulani and the southern sector division, commanded by Yorubas.

9. Lagos, a city built largely by Igbos and were Igbos invested heavily, was also ceded to Yorubas as a State even when there was no Abuja at the time (1967). 14. Awolowo was made Vice Chairman of Federal Executive Council and Finance Minister. All federal government owned banks in Nigeria at the time which included the Central Bank and First Bank, were under Awolowo and Yoruba management. It was a deal Awolowo could not resist. The man was an unscrupulous Machivellian anyway.

10. The Igbos were eventually defeated and Yorubas became champions of nationalism.

11. Awolowo tried to make sure no Igbo man or woman would ever be more than financial destitute let alone have the financial resources to rival a Yoruba.

12. To achieve his objective of permanent Yoruba supremacy, Awolowo insisted that every bank account owned by an Igbo, regardless of how much was in it before the declaration of Biafra, would only be replaced with twenty pounds! He instructed Yoruba Permanent Secretaries who took over the Federal Civil service when Igbos left, to make sure that Igbo senior civil servants were not reinstated but to rather retire those who could not be dismissed as rebels. The same policy obtained in the Armed Forces of Nigeria and Police .

13. The Igbo were not only made pariahs but also financial destitutes.

14. Every house and industry in Igbo city was destroyed by war. Schools were closed for 3 years and many were razed to the ground.

15. Awolowo masterminded the indiginization policy by which Yorubas bought over all companies in Nigeria using money readily made available to them by the banks under their control. The Igbos were excluded.

16. They rejoiced and relaxed and complaisantly asked: “How could Igbos ever rear their ugly heads up again”? Sure, if that had happened to Yorubas or any other ethnic group, that would be their end. But as Awolowo rightly feared, we happen to be Ndi Igbo.

17. The shooting war ended 45 years ago and we are still here. We have survived all policy shenanigans contrapted by treacherous Yoruba masterminds and executed by their Hausa-Fulani allies.

18. In frustration, they have realized that we are who we are. Imagine their frustration! Never mind all Yoruba masterminded psychological attacks on Igbos disparaging us in any way they can.

19. Yes, Federal government policy has made them the tycoons of oil and gas, telecommunications, insurance and manufacturing. Oh, their Hausa-Fulani cum military allies gave Nigeria to Obasanjo for 8 years in keeping faith with their alliance.

20. Bola Tinubu is struggling for Awolowo mantle by forming an alliance of etho- religious jingoistic to ensure power keeps rotating between Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani. Where is the position of the Igbo and other tribes in Nigeria.

THAT IS WHY IGBOS WHO EXPERIENCE ALL THE ABOVE INJUSTICES THINK THAT BIAFRA IS THE ULTIMATE ANSWER.

HOWEVER, MY TAKE IS THAT THIS SHOULD MAKE OUR IGBO LEADERS FOCUSED, AND FIGHT FOR THE COMMON GOOD OF THEIR KINSMEN, NOT ONLY FOR THEIR OWN POCKETS.

2016

The question should be who benefited from the coup if not the Ibos ? Why did they strike when Zik was not available so he can be killed too ?

Yes, ironsi became the head of state but couldn’t carry out justice on the coupists because he was sympathetic to their cause and also reaped from it.

Oga, I don't think I ever said Nigerian soldiers did not commit atrocities, are you trying to defend biafran soldiers that they did not committed any atrocities against the people of Midwest. Oga stop looking for sympathy. You commit atrocities, everyone forgets about it and moved on. They commit against you, you started crying victim as if you people are innocent. Thinking people cares anymore. Can you swear with your life that biafran soldiers did not molest, rape n killed the people of Midwest. They change history, which history, so it is the one your ipob wrote down that is right. Why have you people never talked of how you people bombed Yoruba people inside casino in Lagos?

Davido and Wizkid are OKAY talent wise, they just have commercial appeal and a good promo team... if you want to analyze real talent look no further than Tekno... dude is easily the most underrated artist in Nigeria and Africa right now, surely the next big thing in Afropop music.
and who stopped teckno from having same commercial appeal?davido and wizkid are ahead of him period.

Why won't I watch them, I watched other nation as well. Just like you watch Anthony Joshua fighting. Yorubas n northerners are in the squad. So why won't I watch them. Remember, Yoruba man scored the first ever World Cup goal for the nation.

What sector of the economy do you dominate? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
You and strikethem should stop asking dumb questions here. If you believe that ur pple dominates every sector in Nigeria, you are just telling us that they are the real problem of Nigeria because no sector is working. Your grand father shouted up NEPA, ur father did d same you and ur children are still shouting up NEPA!. Cc Lzza immhotep

Oga, I don't think I ever said Nigerian soldiers did not commit atrocities, are you trying to defend biafran soldiers that they did not committed any atrocities against the people of Midwest. Oga stop looking for sympathy. You commit atrocities, everyone forgets about it and moved on. They commit against you, you started crying victim as if you people are innocent. Thinking people cares anymore. Can you swear with your life that biafran soldiers did not molest, rape n killed the people of Midwest. They change history, which history, so it is the one your ipob wrote down that is right. Why have you people never talked of how you people bombed Yoruba people inside casino in Lagos?

eeyaa see pain...

pls stop weeping.. grin grin

Stop beating around the bush like a kid. This is a faceless forum so don't talk about things that can never be verified.

Which sector of the economy do you dominate? Buying and selling and importation doesn't build an economy.
Buying and selling and importation doesn't build an economy says the kid who always boasts with Dangote without knowing that he's into buying and selling and importation. Cc Immhotep Lzza
