The General on the need to avoid war re Biafra (May 1967)

"I need not tell you what horror, what devastation and what extreme human suffering will attend the use of force. When it is all over and the smoke and dust have lifted, and the dead are buried, we shall find, as other people have found, that it has all been futile, entirely futile, in solving the problems we set out to solve."

Fayose is a f00l and an epic disgrace to ekiti state.

His actions seriously questions whether or not it is actually true that ekiti state is the "fountain of knowledge".

He has turned the burial to his own political campaign/jamboree. How can he show such great disrespect and disdain to the late General Adebayo and his family ?

Those were his words at the Aburi Accord. He was indeed a Pacifist. He knew the futility and eventual carnage a civil war will bring to the country. He, as the miitary administrator of the Western region was not ready to fight a needless war, but ojukwu the leader of we igbos insisted that we igos go to war. The result was a catastrophic defeat, while ojukwu himslef cowradly ran away to Abidjan
