Ntoor gi. Useless wicked fool. After trying to commit genocide you come out here to mutter nonsense, prayer my foot. If you read There Was A Country by Chinua Achebe and you are igbo all the pity will leave you for the north as for me make them kill themselves jejely. This man did nothing about the Asaba, Calabar and Aba massacres and his talking about prayers.

Shut it!


When and where did Ojukwu declare war? Go read your history.

After d counter coup, the killing of Igbos continued leading to mass return of maimed Igbos to Eastern Nigeria. Ojukwu kept advising Gowon to stop the progrom against igbos but all fell to a deaf ear.

To make peace, a meeting was called in Aburi Ghana where agreement was reached by both parties, signed and agreed that upon returning to Nigeria Gowon will implement it. Majorly restructuring

The Fool returned and was misadvised not to honour the agreement. Rather he started creating states to weaken the Eastern region. This prompted Ojukwu to insist on Aburi accord. Since Gowon renegade on the agreement, Ojukwu carved Eastern Nigeria out of Nigeria, this led Gowon to declare police action which later result to war.

The first shot was fired by Nigerian forces at Gaikem Calabar.

Tell me how Ojukwu declared war here.
I swear the Igbo just wanted to leave after all they did not want us but instead they declared police action and blocked us from receiving food supplies, even from the Red Cross imagine the evil of Gown and his cohorts. Let them enjoy Nigeria. A failed state indeed.

This man and his fake prayer gallivantations.

He should retire to his village in Angas land, fulani herdsmen want to discuss something with him in his village.


Heh..!
Am an Angas Fellow but he's never welcome home.

He preferred Kaduna than Plateau State.
Let me ask you, has he for once led such a hypocritic prayers to Plateau State despite all the massacre?

So what are you saying?
Please leave the Angas and Plateau people out this...fallacies of Gowon.

Still serving His Masters.

Stupid talk. Gowon was a lower-ranked puppet, who did his puppeteers' bidding all in the name of keeping Nigeria one to subjugate and plunder. Today, his people are being consumed by the deal they made with the devil.

When Nzogu n his cohort woke up one night n murdered key prominent Northerners n westerners I.e. Tafawa Balewa, Sir Ahmadu Bello, Chief S.L Akintola, Brig. Samuel Ademulegun, Col Ralph Sodeinde, Brig Mamlari, Col. Pam etc n left all Easterners viz Dr Nmamdi Azikwe, Dr Okpara, Chief Denis Osadebe etc what did you expect? When some Igbos were rejoicing over the death of these prominent men, what did you expect? When Isaac Adaka Boro declared Niger Delta Republic what did Ojukwu n Ironsi do? Was he not arrested n condemned to death in a jiffy? I deeply sympathized with the death n suffering of innocent Easterners as well as soldiers that died or wounded or maimed on both sides of the conflict. I saw many of them at Oji River in the late 1970s n I shed tears. If not for anything it is the blood of these innocent ones that has been troubling Nigeria n not those of Ojukwu who has the opportunity to avoif or call of the war at tbr early stage as soon as Nsukka war front was lost. I equally recalled the shooting of Col. Victor Banjo, Col Ifeajuna, Mr Agbam n one other person that were cruelly murdered in Enugu in 1967 shortly before the fall of that city. Were they not branded saboteurs simply because they saw the futility of the war at very early stage of the war. When Ojukwu finally returned to Nigeria in 1983 or there about, did he not abandoned NPP (the party in power in SE then) to join NPN for selfish reasons. Let's therefore not blame Gowon much but those who started the whole imbroglio. If they were not partial in the killing during the first military coup in 1966, there would probably not be counter coup in July 1966 n no civil war of 1967. I stand to be corrected pls.

Wow! You, my friend, are clueless.

God is ever ready to answer our prayers once we decide to do things that please Him.

Some of us biafrans are not sensible at all.

What did you expect Gowon to do? Cede off Biafra?

If he had done that, that same year; him and his kinsmen would either be serving as a slaves to the Fulanis or be dust by now.

What is happening to Nigeria is spiritual. If Igbos go today, the northern minorities and Christians will either be forced to convert to Islam or decimated in less than 3 DAYS. It's common sense and it's spiritual.

However, Gowon has a lot of blood on his hands for not reaching a settlement which could have prevented the war.

As much as i love the idea of Biafra. Maybe more than any Igbo man. I don't see that nation in sight for the sake of innocent Christian and minority blood in the north.

Nigeria will experience peace and development soon. But before then, something will shake Nigeria to her foundation very very SOON. It will look like war, but it's not war.

No need to protest Oga,all northerners knew purpose of organised Boko Haram,no criminal can disturbed any nation with out financial,logistic and information support from the region,right from when Niger delta has amnesty since then the Norther part of Nigeria are looking for a away to has their own or pay back what happen in Niger Delta,if police men can kill 10 boko Haram and Nigeria army lost senior officer to the same Boko Haram, no need to look for prophet to tell you what is going on..

It's a pity that these killing is happening anyway, I can't rejoice over the death of even my perceived enemy, talkkess of wanton killings of children, women and of course any citizen.

I don't know whether to say that Gowon would have prevented these killings decades back, I might be wrong. However, I think he needs to do more than praying. Much practical stands must be taken. He knows Nigeria is not united and many are tired of this fake marriage decades back. If we fails to call for a referendum in a peaceful way, it might occur in a forceful way.

Gowon is blessed, n God wants him to do more than what he is presently doing. He need not be afraid to speak out at this age.
We are waiting for you, your excellency. Those of you who want to preserve the unity of Nigeria with your blood, ask yourself if you are doing the will of larger masses. If your answer is YES and the larger citizens wants it, you will succeed. Interpolate the remaining questions and provide the possible answers.

The actions we take now has consequences that will trail it. The choice before us each moment of decision is to choose wisely....

I know Gowon do wishes somewhere in his mind that his decision to abort the aburi wasn't the right one...

Good morning Sir..


Please don't wake him yet with the salutation. He is still dreaming believing that prayers in hypocrisy is what Nigeria needs.

He aborted Aburi accord and fought to kill innocent children. The people he collaborated to kill the innocent are the people wrecking havoc in his backyard now.


Let him keep dreaming, after he wakes up he will come to understand that America did not remove bin laden with prayer.

Useless man.

You of all people should have known that God will punish you, your family, state and region for the genocide you involved yourself in on behalf of Fulani Muslims. Genocide against fellow Christians simply because you were a young, vibrant soldier!

You were kept till old age just so that you can witness the result of your dastardly destruction of Christian lives. That is why every other prayer crusades excluding your own have yielded expected results. Your "pray for Nigeria" initiative and efforts over the years will nevcollaborated with you. Shame on you killer! er succeed. God refused to answer your prayers because they are fake prayers. You were kept alive until old age to witness the same destruction upon your people that you meted out to Igbos when you were younger.

After your long overdue death, then Nigeria will become great. You will never see the greatness of Nigeria. The same applies to all your colleagues that joined you in killing.

What I expected him to do was implement the Aburi accord. Nigeria would have been a paradise by now. Every region would have been growing at their pace and strength. The centre (Abuja) would have been unattractive while d regions would be strong.

But No, he did 360° U turn, and made the effort at peace a wasted effort. Rather he started creating states, trying to divide the Eastern region.

Now if you were Ojukwu what would u have done? Keep watching Ur ppl killed, clap for Gowon for wasting the effort of peace at Aburi, or stand on Aburi which would have brought peace and unity?

The real reason behind Boko Haram is this ,if we can not ISLAMISE Nigeria they will reduce the number of Christians to minimum, which the letter heading says,let all Muslims condemn Boko Haram openly, and secretly support them,because they believe they are fighting war of Jihads,if any Muslims is found among the Christians,is consider as Infidel then kill them together,they will even go and attack mosque so that it will look as if Christian are fighting back so that they will have more supports from our Africans brothers,they went far to convert to christian in other to fully study Christendom so that you be thinking their part of you,that is why Holy Bible told me and you that,by their fruit we shall know then and at the end the Agent of darkness will transform to be Agent of light.
