At a time such as this, Nigeria should look up to people like Gowon for advice, we can also learn from his mistakes. "The sacrifice made for our unity should not be in vain"

WE'RE ALWAYS GOOD AT POINTING ACCUSATION FINGERS TO THE USA. THEY'RE ONLY AFRAID OF INDIRECTLY SELLING THE ARMS TO THE BOKOHARAM IN THE NAME OF NIGERIA. YOU ALL SEE WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. MY FRIEND IN YOLA WAS TELLING ME HOW THE MASSES ASSEMBLED IN STREETS OF YOLA MONTHS BACK CLAPPING WITH FULL HOPE FOR SOLDIERS AS THEY CONVEY HEAVY LOADS OF ARMS TO MUBI MEANT FOR FIGHTING INSURGENTS. HE CALLED ME AND SAY 'I ASSURE U BH WILL BE HISTORY IN ONE WEEK' BUT GUESS WHAT? SAME GUY CALLED BACK AFTER EXACTLY A WEEK CRYING AND TELLING ME THAT BH HAS CAPTURED MUBI, & THAT SOLDIERS WERE ARRIVING YOLA BARE FOOTED WITH SHORTNICKERS AS THEY ALL THREW THEIR UNIFORMS. I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE HEAVY WEAPONS TAKEN THEIR AND HE BURSTED INTO TEARS AGAIN TELLING ME THAT THEY ARE IN THE HANDS OF BOKOHARAM AS EVEN THE BARRACKS WHERE THEY WERE KEPT IS UNDER BH CONTROL. WHOSE NEGLIGENCE, AMERICA?

This Cluelessness is becoming contagious communicable.

Social media has given lots of people opportunity to spew rubbish out their ignorant minds. Gowon is not a kid and as such should be respected as a former head of states and an elder statesman. He has first hand information on security matters. Please don't discard his comments but lets look deeper and be constructive in our reasoning. America does not have d interest of nigeria in their policy. Thanks.

''John Perkins writes in Confessions of an Economic Hitman (2004) how he and other ‘hitmen’ like him were sent to developing countries as consultants to bribe or coerce diplomats, economists, administrators and politicians to do the bidding of the US. Often they succeeded, but if they failed then the CIA would send in the ‘jackals’ — professionally trained assassins who would engineer the deaths of those who stood in the way of complete American domination.''

So the US is now "our greatest enemy" just because they refused to sell arms to us?, Is it only the US that sells weapons?, What happened to Israeli and Russian weapons?. The man is funny.

highmood:
my friend, he is not funny. He is just waking up to the reality that America and other western powers aren't our friends. When he was been stuffed with weapons of destruction to exterminate the people of the then biafra and thier children, he never complained. Now the same people who fought for them and against other innocent ethnic groups and killed millions of them have started with their supporters. Now that same leader is complaining forgetting he never complained then, he never apologized then and ended up impoverishing the Biafrans by giving them 2 pounds for their millions. If not for the innocent in that region who never supported the killings of the southerners then, I would be harsh in saying, " what goes around, comes around"

Another moro*n with an opinion. People like these are why Nigeria remains retar*ded.

Why are you looking for friends to fight your own battle in your backyard, are you handicapped?

You should ask GEJ for a job, you sound like his type of person.

The Nigeria you fought to remain one is being taken over by BH, Gowon one day you will be a refugee in iboland because of BH in collaboration with their Northern islamist will sack your hometown

Suljosh:
All y'all abusing Gowon should take a chill pill. Blame ojukwu for biafra. Oooooooh where is Abacha when you need one. Why depending on USA to help us? They aint gonna help, you know why? Because they don't really care about us in MJ's voice. And I don't care about them either, who do they think they are GOD? They must be high on some cheap substance. We can solve this problems our selves if we just Bolieve»»»»>Believe.

Actually, people like you is the reason we are were we are. Please go on and continue sucking your white master's co.ck. Maybe he can spare you some crumbs.

SamIkenna:
Igbo people have this saying: "onye gburu dibia na agworo ya ogwu chefulu na ndi n'eme ya insi di ndu." Meaning: A man who killed his charm maker forgot his enemies were still alive. They momentarily got rid of Biafra with empty promises to outside powers and criminals. When it got to 'paycheck' time the powers were greeted with a monumental scam in the name of Indigenization policy. Britain lost a chunk of her investments, Russia got no foothold, Arab Egypt and Sudan eventually got OIC, and the rest of Nigeria got 40 year born-to-rule hegemony. But in life there's always a second chance, and for those powers that chance is now.

Yesterday Gowon was saying America was not Nigeria's friend and ally because they refused to sell Nigeria fighter jets durin the civil war to 'chase Biafra's B25's away' from Nigeria's air space. He said, "we were not asking to shoot it down but to chase it away. we wanted to stop it from throwing bombs and killing innocent people, that's why we want to chase it away but America refused to sell us fighters." Story for the gods! Ironically, this same Gowon who said he didn't want to shoot down a jet, just merely chasing it away, was ok with Nigerian jets strafing and blasting innocent women and children in markets, schools, and hospitals on the Biafran side.

Sometimes I wonder if these people realized we're many and alive in Nigeria. It seems when they talk about what they did to our fathers and our homeland, they assume no single 'Biafran' is alive so let's justify and heap all atrocities on dead Biafrans - the dead can't hear so what a heck! Too bad Gowon, you didn't get everyone, so we can hear you loud and clear. We know what happened and someday Biafra's time will come. But until then, we leave Nigeria with the Repo man for Gowon's overdue and unpaid fees.

Adminisher:
ALL THESE GOWON BASHINGS MUST STOP.
Kids who were not even alive during the civil war rehashing lies told by their parents. All IBOs need to thank Gowon. What if the Head of State had been MURTALA MUHAMMED? there wont have been "No Victor, No Vanquished". It would have been "Kill All Ibos". Muhammed almost became Head of State at that time. In all interviews regarding the civil war, Gowon shows great sympathy for Ibos and reserves intense condemnation for Ojukwu. Even in this article he does not mention Biafra by name. The man who starved Biafra was Awo for good reasons...pls children dont make the mistake of your Children, Gowon is the only ex Head Of State with some love for GEJ. Please stop being STUPID.
