obaaderemi: No you are wrong. The coup did not lead to the war. It was not the 'proximate' cause of the war. This is one error a lot of Nigerians believe which must be debunked. Nigeria was already on the path of war even before 1966, violence was prevalent especially in Western Region. What causes a war is the same thing that causes a fight, the inability of two or more people to reason like adults and reach a compromise that does not include fighting. That was what Gowon and Ojukwu met in Aburi to avoid. The met, discussed for two days and reached an agreement which both signed. The went back home and there was peace. War became inevitable when Gowon could not live up to his side of the agreement. The war was not caused by the first coup, it was caused by Yakubu Gowon. 12 Likes |

[quote author=Explorers post=47473531]Growing up: Do you remember eating this? Share your experience. We call it esunsun(Dont no the English), they fly around in the night during rainy season and they're attracted to fluorescent bulbs, halogen lamps and so on. We capture them using brooms, we put them in bowl/bucket of water and fry with salt, pepper etc. Ate it today, delicious....[/quo Code Name Thermites. |

According to my dad, the first TV to arrive warri, they had to send an engineer for a course on how to operate TV. He was seen as a demigod then because without him no one was authorised to touch it in the big town Hall. 4 Likes |

Great thread. Pictures are worth more than a thousand words. Onyeka: That was unclothedness way back then. Football: Nigeria has got the best of the best. White men: Are you ok upstairs? Nigeria: The legacy you leave behind leaves your name written in stone. How can century old infrastructure still be around to date (built to last). If we had that rate of development till date we would have been TRUE GIANTS OF AFRICA. Groundnut Pyramids: The North's legacy which the whole Nigeria benefited from way back then. Hot babes: When we were proud of ourselves and respected our accomplishments. Ivory legs: At that time the kain work Wey u go do to afford that ivory, no how your face must hard. 5 Likes |

nkemdi89:I'm that son that knows we don't need to torture or kill animals carelessly in order to look good. Fur coats, Snake skin belts/shoes and even croc leather goods is a no no for me. 90% of the money generated from poaching activities like ivory hunting end up in foreign pockets. Indigineous owners of the lands were these elephants are killed and slaughtered for their ivory tusks gets nothing. |
