Odenigbo Aroli:


Go and sit down you shameless old fagg! How about the "ASABA GENOCIDE" where your infamous brave nigerian soldiers opened fire on innocent and armless women and children? Be careful before i put a curse on your already miserable life!

I guess you don't know the facts of the so called "Asaba Genocide", do you? I am quite busy now and no time to go dig-up the published details as far as 1972 of what happened! Nonetheless, if armed assailants enter your house and meets your family at 2 am, what would you do? You have only 2 options co-operate with them or not which is your choice. If you decide not to co-operate and attack their leader, be certain neither he nor his foot soldiers survive your attack because if they do, you know what will happen. They will simply execute every member of your family. That will not be "genocide" but stupidity on your path and that is what happened in Asaba. Go and read the details.

Despicable.

Thats what perturbed me the most. That plus blowing up the bridge so your own people will get killed by the advancing army. What happened to "Live together, die together"?

That article highlights a serious lack of leadership qualities. How tragic for the innocent children and civilians to be abandoned, and blown up, at their hour of most need.

I now understand, better, why Ojukwu struggled to win political office on his return.

Yorubas and there inferiority complex. Can't help but laugh. I actually enjoy it. Exactly why Igbos will continue to feel that they are better than you all. Any Igbo man that you come across just keep in mind that he see you as beneath him. Can't wait till you all(yorubas) get your own country so the orgy of killing each other can increase to the way it was back in the day of your "Yoruba civil war". Lol

It was an illustration, obviously you saw that I was only painting a quick picture. To the objective reader, who understands this simple illustration, the real story would become instantly clear. I am busy now and cannot dig up any publications of the account. Focus on that and not snide comments like "born of a woman" except of course some people in Nigeria grew from the ground like plants or dropped from the sky like rain.

So, as an Igbo man, do you feel you're better than just only the Yorubas or do you just see the rest of mankind as "beneath" you? Do you have your nose in the air naturally or do you just have it in you to be condescending to just certain groups? I'm asking these questions because your statement is baffling as it is intriguing.

Dude you honestly know how to talk without making a Goddamn sense. Just incase you people try to change history like you've been trying to do for so long let me just bring this out

What happened in Asaba

The description giving by the people of Asaba that experienced it
http://books.google.com/books?id=3N_o3mx3cJAC&pg=PA61&lpg=PA61&dq=asaba+massacre&source=bl&ots=dPyKpWH0T9&sig=JuAV2xXKbg7QPHExff0g11e68nY&hl=en&sa=X&ei=nhs9UN3EN4PA9gSOhoAQ&ved=0CC0Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=asaba%20massacre&f=false

A little known fact Nigerians try to hide each time" OJUKWU DID NOT DECLARE ASABA AS PART OF BIAFRA AND WAS STILL AT THAT TIME PART OF NIGERIA, HENCE VERY FEW ASABA MEN AND WOMEN WERE PART OF BIAFRAN TROOPS AT THAT SAID TIME THUS ASABA WAS NOT AN ENEMY TO NIGERIA. Infact, Ojukwu left the entire Anioma community, despite being of Igbo heritage, as part of Nigeria due to the fact the Anioma community was not among the community he presided over. Because of that said fact, most Asabians and Anioma were neutral in the beginning of the war. THAT MASSACRE increased Biafran soldiers by tens fold due to the fact many Asaba woked up to reality. Even my own uncle joined Biafran troops because of the said massacre. Trying to f2king change the history isn't going to work this time, at least wait till the people that experienced the act such as parents, grandparents, uncle, aunt, mother, father, etc died out because there are still A WHOLE LOT OF US whose family got affected from that said massacre still living and breathing till this day.

WAS ASABA PART OF BIAFRA DURING THAT TIME thus whatever Biafra troops "supposedly" do automatically become Asaba problem.

LET ME INFORM YOU Biafrans troops supposedly invaded midwest or SW led by someone of your own ethnicity btw yet ASABA, A NON-BIAFRAN, STILL PART OF NIGERIA AND ITSELF WAS A MID-WESTERN STATE OF NIGERIA GOT ATTACKED BY THE ILLITERATE NIGERIAN TROOPS INSTEAD OF STATES LABELED AS BIAFRA.

What f2king sense do you think you are making? Even your justification attempt itself is very weak.

ABEOKUTA- A middle-aged man identified as Pastor Michael Oyewole was paraded along his accomplice, Matthew Akiode for being in possesion of a human skull allegedly exhumed in a grave on a land at Sabo in Abeokuta North local government area of Ogun state on Tuesday.

The pastor,32,who claimed to be a pastor at Ona-Ara mimo Cherubim and Sheraphim at Olomore few kilometres to the crime scene in Abeokuta was accused of inducing Akiode of committing the crime.

Speaking with newsmen, Akiode, who confessed to the crime, however attributed his action to the economic situation in the country.

He said” I used to work on his (pastor) site but he said I will make more money if I can get him human skull, so I felt it was an easy way of making money that was why I did it.

“I am surprised his denying all of this when he was the actual person that thought me how to go about it, “he claimed.

But when the pastor was however asked about his involvement in the crime, Pastor Oyewole denied that he ever sent Akiode to perpetrate the act.

He said “I am man of God and pastor at Irewole Cherubim and Seraphim Church, car wash area.

“I heal people with God’s name and not with human skull, his just telling lies and I don’t know what I have done to him Only God can save me now, “he said.

While parading the suspects at the police command Headquarters at Eleweran in Abeokuta yesterday,the police Commissioner, Ikemefuna Okoye, said that the accused persons committed the offence at about 12 a. m while digging the foundation of a building.

According to Okoye,at about 12 00 am hour, we got information about somebody who was digging a grave and we swung into action.

“He never knew that eagle eyes were watching him in the process of removing the corpse.

“We apprehended him immediately he severed the head from the body and he told us that it was one Pastor Oyewole that sent him, “ he said.

Okoye however said that,the embattled pastor was arrested shortly after his partner in crime mentioned his name for encouraging him to commit the crime.

He said that both accused persons would be charged to court as soon as investigation into the matter was concluded.

The Commissioner, who assured members of the public to go about their normal business without fear, sought their cooperation towards effective policing of the state

It must have been quite frustrating to be those French doctors.

You leave your safe, comfortable country to step in the middle of a warzone to help the Biafran side.

And you then watch the leader of that effort abandon his cause, and in the process kill those you left France to save.
