This ojuckwu na fine boy oooooo

Hehe! ugwu hawkers..

photoshoot:




He didn't fight to prove anything. He only fought for South south oil.

You all were and still are pawns to the actualisation of the idea.

At the time Ojukwu fought, there was no 'South-South'. There was only Eastern Nigeria. Igbo land where Ojukwu comes from has more than enough Oil anyway.

Please try and fight for freedom. Me and my boys in the army will show you what we call the "Art of War"

Ur statement alone shows u're not in the Army. Despite the training, no any soldier, foreign or local prays for war... And if u are one, u must be one of those illiterate recruits been used by the graduate officers...
BINGO

gidgiddy:
I've watched this video a number of times and the hypocrisy is mind blowing. I give props to Major Taffy Williams, my father fought alongside him on the Biafran side and he was a great motivator. It should be noted that mercenaries were used on both sides of the war, infact, Nigeria used far mor mercenaries than Biafra.

As Ojukwu rightly said in the interview "war is the price of freedom". Every war has one side that is fighting for freedom and another side that is fighting to take freedom away. When it comes to the Nigerian/Biafran war, every Nigerian knows which side was fighting freedom and which side was fighting to take that freedom away.

I'm happy that people like Gowon, Obasunjo, Buhari, IBB who all fought against Biafra and went on to be presidents are all still alive today. I'm happy that they all alive to see the faliure that same Nigeria has become.

Ojukwu has been vindicated, the Nigeria he fought againt turned out to be a monumental disaster, proving that Ojukwu was right to try and get him people out.

Well said but want to add to ur words if you would allow me that rare privilege. The generals you mentioned apart from OBJ, it would also be great if each of them could write memoirs on the war from their point if view. Not something similar to the scandalous lies written and rewritten by OBJ but a clearer account of the war. Our generation needs to read and re-read these accounts not to fuel the fire of Biafra but to understand it so that a deja vu won't perpetrate in our time and so that we can cleverly secure peace for our children.

The earlier Nigerian youths wake up to the reality of the fact that this geographical contraption called Nigeria is a failed state the better for them a country with huge resources both human and natural cannot fix roads operate a quality research driven educational system cannot even creat jobs for its teeming youths and university graduates it has all become survival of the fittest for over 10million unemploymed youths. different form of crimes ranging from yahoo yahoo advanced fee fraud gun running robbery kidnapping ritual has becoke the predominant occupation of our youths may God punish the British for their evil arrangements called Nigeria Lagos before 1914 was a thriving and independent crown colony and southern protectorate was a rich independent colony and likewise Northern protectorate. amongst the comity of nations we have become objects of mockery our international passports has become synonymous with criminality nobody will respect u anywhere in the world rather once u are around the level of suspicion on u is high. foreign policy is zero the life of a Nigerian out there is not worth one dollar. you can imagine there will be the first to be killed on a slightest provocation anywhere in the world. How did we get here. Nigerian youths sit back and think its neither getting better. I suggest true fedralism rather than faning embers of tribalism and hate

How exactly is the fact that Biafra hired many foreign mercenaries who helped train most of our civilians into soldiers and did fought in the combat along us new info?

What exactly is wrong with Afonjas.

Why do they want to die on top Biafran matter?

The same art of war Lord Lugard used to burn down your villages, use your forfathers for target practice so that he could make them 'Nigerians'?

Indiaindia:
IGBO'S DEMONIC Biafra WILL FALL. EVEN IF IGBO'S DEMONIC Biafra RISE UP AGAIN THEY SHALL SURELY FAIL. MY HAPPINESS IS THAT SOUTH SOUTH IS NOT PART OF IT

Storieeee..

A region that has overcome all its losses during the war and overtaken the rest infrastructurally...

Stop spreading hate...its not your business if some people want to leave the country its a choice....

Its not by force....no matter how much you suppress it...one day is one day...even if it takes a hundred years....one day it WILL happen... Nigeria will be divided.... Accept it...

Why did the igbos co-opt unwilling tribe into their eldorado Biafra? If they were seceeding, why annexed the mid-west? It was an unforgiving error on part of Ojukwu and other Biafran leaders.

jnichole:
if you want to get unbiased view on the civil war how awolowo betrayed the igbo race even after an igbo man saved his neck read the book the making of an african legend by frederick forsyth.

Igbos are yearning for biafra. When they get it some people will still come here and crying.
Why cant we call baba God to remove bad eggs among our leaders.
And everything will be alright.

Biafra is not the solution to igbos problem.

Geist:
It's your hipocrisy that is mind blowing. Have you forgotten that you are also talking about the same Nigeria Ojukwu later denounced Biafra to serve?

Ojukwu has never denounced Biafra, on the contrary, there are YouTube videos where Ojukwu said he was honoured and proud to have led Biafra. The only thing Ojukwu did was to give 'one Nigeria' a chance, and he lived long enough to see it fail. At almost 80, nobody expects Ojukwu to start fighting again.

True...but the only real way to do it..is to actually teach it as part of history courses....

I fail to understand why that part is totally skipped in all the social studies and bla bla bla we did growing up.....

Nigeria can't move forward because instead of correcting mistakes through open discussion and learning, we sweep it under the carpet...

This was was war we re talking about here, each side wanted to v upper hands naa. Didnt Nigeria use them too, or did She fight Biafra alone? We too passionate of Biafra, its in our blood. Listening to newspapers analysis this morning on Metro fm, come how Igbos were calling telling PMB that Biafra will be whether he liked it or not. Expecting a ban, anyway.

Figs:
bros,d hate in ur heart for d ibos is uncalled for.can ur parents force u to marry a girl u dnt lov? I put it to u dat very soon, d Yorubas will begin to fight for separation, it's a matter of time. Go ask D Ijebu ppl, they are asking for their own state

A country with one State,you must be sick in the head,very sick.

Grandstanding, if Ojukwu was right as you have proclaimed please always note he failed woefully at freeing his people also. He as not been vindicated for leaving his people in what you term a disaster. I do not see vindication on his path all I see is a weakling educated in the best military schools of Europe and with a race as determined as the Igbo he could not outsmart the aboki led army that does nothing but chew goro n sips kunu. What more can be termed a failure ?!

Ojukwu deserve to be brought back to life and flogged a million times for wasting igbos lives on a course he could not guarantee victory. War my friend is not the olympics where you win by just participating. Now I ask you are the igbos better off in nigeria or outside of it after the Biafran war ? The answer which stares you in the face should tell who the failure his btw the country Nigeria and Ojukwu.

Another Afonja lie. Una dey use lie brush mouth in the morning

Lol, at least he better pass una way dey use ignorance dey brush una brain every morning.

wish he was still alive to lead us

When he wanted to lead y'all by ballot, how many votes did ur people gave him. Didn't you vote for a man that was against him when he led by bullet

Biafra is not the solution to igbos problem.

Agreed but it will be easier if everybody goes back to the way we were before the white men came in terms of social structure....

One president is too small to run dis country...

One governor is too small for any state...

If you have moved around well enough, you go know say the Nigeria wey you dey see for t.v and the real Nigeria na two different things...


Governors come out on tv to flash urban achievement, there are so many local governments in this same country that hav not seen electricity since 1960 you will not believe it....

Brush brain? I rest my case. I can't be bothered by your ignorance. I'm not your father

ARE U NOW THE MOUTH PICS OF SS. IT 'S ONLY IN NIGERIA PEOPLE WANT TO BE IN MARRIAGE WITH PEOPLE THE HATE WITH PASSION.

Over 30yrs of my existence in Nigeria nothing seems to b working, same old stories. Sometimes I asked if Nigeria was cursed. U cant force pple to continue to stay when they dont want to. Biafrans want to go cos according to them we re "evil, drug pushers, kidnappers, baby factory", still they wont let us go. Why?

caesaraba:
Who doesn't hire mercs in a war?

Even in the fight against Boko Haram, Mercenaries at some point fought on the side of Nigeria. Boko Haram use mercenaries. Some call them military contractors, while some call them paid guns. It's a big business.

So many places where people havbt seen water rush from a gadamn tap before.....

This country is TOO BIG TO BE HANDLED BY SOME VULTURES RUNNING AROUND IN ABUJA....

Nigeria was not prepared for independence when she got it.....that is why she squandered EVERYTHING SHE FOUND in her coffers...


All those zik, awolowo balewa plus all the military heads of state up until buhari are ALL thieves ... All of them none exempted....

Lets not try to paint a picture of the igbos fighting on the basis of nothing....

Why is it soo hard for Nigeria to just leave them alone to be on their own Oil? And industry? Yea you guessed it....

It has absolutely nothing to do with luv or peace...

U noticed that too. I agree again with you. Am glad that we do have educated and sane thinkers on nairaland. Not those buffoons that follow people everywhere screaming Biafra without understanding what our parents past through during that time. My Uncle who fought in that war, God rest his soul said before passing on and I quote "It is easy to go about clamouring for Biafra and a repeat of a lost course without knowing how one lived, how one had to scrounge like a rat to survive. I dont wish such a repeat on my children or relatives".
