BizBooks: @Katsumoto,

Your responses are acerbic. That's why I have decided to ignore anything you say.

And you don't think that a majority find your attempts at revising history and casting aspersions on the noble names of Fela and Funmilayo Ransome Kuti as utterly desperate and exasperating.

You don't think many find your comments about an old lady being pushed through a window as blood chillingly cold and callous, let alone that the old lady is a foremost human rights activist who also blessed the world with one of the most acclaimed musicians and activists? Like others have suggested, please go and push your grandmother through the window and report your findings after a year.

You haven't tried to present any evidence other than the words of a writer who wasn't present when there are many alive who were witnesses to the sad event. Did you think that public opinion would be swayed by presenting the opinion of an 'American'.

I apologise in advance but you sir, are a dunce of the highest order.

But when it comes to the issue of Ojukwu, you will compose a lengthy epistle telling us to discard Ojukwu's account in favour of your "balanced" historian tales. Can you see that you are a hypocrite? You speaks from both sides of your mouth. Endeavour to put this disclaimer after every sermon of yours, "believe at your own risk"

I'm practically a stranger in the Politics section and don't know who is who. Thank you for
providing an insight into Katsumoto's personality. Unfortunately, he has some interesting
viewpoints but goes about them in a most un-civilized manner.

It doesn't surprise me that you would seize on the words of a poster whose first post was an ad hominem attack on me. Just as you have tried to use the words of an American writer to absolve the military of culpability in the murder of Funmilayo Ransome Kuti.

This thread is not about Ojukwu so go ahead and respond to my posts. Oh I forgot, you have no evidence except for that of a mysterious poster.

As for you, this thread is not about Ojukwu, so you have to wait for another Ojukwu before I kick your ar.se again.

You are welcome. He's our resident "google search" specialist. When debates goes beyond google, then the debate goes beyond him. Catch him on every thread with catchword "Biafra", "Ojukwu", "Awolowo", "Sanusi". He's an interesting character that loves to condescend on anyone that debates against him. He often gets emotional during debates, at the same time accuse the opposing forces of debating with emotion. Finally, he mostly presents internet junks as facts.

I guess its high time we started knowing the truth about what happened in those Nigerian days but I hope it is with the intention to punish and forgive. Question is are we at that point yet?

Katsumoto: An old lady in her 70's was thrown out of the second floor of a building. She would die months later; you don't need a doctor to tell you she died from her wounds, both physical and mental.

Danjuma gave the orders to the soldiers but OBJ is equally culpable because he was Danjuma's military boss and the president at the time.
Is that how you imagine? A seventy years old thrown out of the first floor of a building and she still lives? A seventy years old beating-up by Nigerian soldiers and she lived? Do you even realise that there is a great difference between been thrown out and jumping out from a high place? She died because her time has come!

Nonsense! World-wide recreation? Any man who introduces evil must have his works recreated, don't you think? Marijuana smoking and pornographic shows, were all he introduced. Speaking against tyranny while preaching corruption, is that what he accomplished? Let him and his descendants continue receiving world-wide recreation, and you should join them too. Shameless lots. Fella was the cause of his mothers death. A man harbouring criminals in his so called Calacuta Villa has now become a hero. Mtcheeew.

Her son's criminal harbouring attitude did(The so called Calacuta Rep). If fela were not engaging in senseless smoking which takes over the better part of him while he insults the authority that leads his country, his mother would not have been visited by any soldier.

Don't mind them, they are not even ashamed of bringing-up such insignificant issue on this site. Well, i heard the site is owned and controlled by their folks.
