Former Military Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon (rtd), said on Wednesday said that Nigeria needs an Igbo President to help heal the civil war wounds.
According to VANGUARD, Gowon said this while delivering a lecture entitled “No Victor, No Vanquished: Healing the Nigerian Nation” to mark the 6th Convocation ceremony of the Chukwumeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University (COOU), Igbariam, in Anambra.

He said, ''It is wrong to conclude that the civil war broke out following the failure of the Aburi Accord but was the direct result of a unilateral decision of independence for Eastern Nigeria. If there was no seccession, there would have been no war.

''It was a reluctant war waged to unite the country''.

It is disappointing that a former head of state wants to return to dividing us along ethnic lines. If he's feeling guilty for what he did to the Igbos he should simply go to his church, confess and ask for God's forgiveness.
