BlackJo:

whoever you are, you're a very small idiot o.
I just say make I tell you.
Ezigbote IDIOT!!
If you don't have something useful to say, then Mechie your mouth! close it! ! before I tear it out of your face!

T9ksy:
Nwafor Orizu- Nigeria's senate president who as the acting President refused to hand the baton of play back to the northerners after his ibo "revolutionary officers" had murdered his boss, our PM but instead called in the clueless ironsi- another ibo man, against what is stated in our constitution which this mofo swore to defend, to become our first HOS. This is the same mofo who advised Ironsi togo ahead and promulgate Decree 34 which finally sealed the latter's fate. Somehow, the jan 15 coupists didn't deem it fit to snuff this mofo's life probably because he hailed from the same region as them.

Duru1:



The above crap is another idiotic post making silly rounds. What section of Nigerian constitution touched on the goofy bolded line in the above junk?

Prof,the fact of the matter is had orizu done the right thing there wouldn't have been any civil war and millions of lives would have been saved. Many are of the opinion that this mofo too should have been shot by the Jan coupists..............................if only to balance the books

I vividly Recall the story of a man who became
popular for engaging in money rituals just to buy the
80's edition of the Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy
that car for 50k today. Some other guy brutally
murdered his brother ( whom their father gave cash
2 travel 4 the purpose of re- stocking their
warehouse), just cos he wanted to acquire the rave
of the moment - Pathfinder Jeep. That same vehicle
is now better described as a coffin. I Remember as
a kid, my whole street gathered to watch a truck
deliver a very large satellite dish to my neighbour's
house. Today a dish one tenth that size delivers 5
times the value and is in almost every student's
room. What about the Volkswagen Santana,
Mercedes Benz V boot, 505Evolution, Toyota
Crown, all overtaken by latest models of Camry,
Honda, Bugatti, Bentley, X6, Acura and Infinity....
Vanity! Some ladies left their true loves cos some
rich guy then persuaded them with a Benz 190,
which turned out to be the only car they ever owned
till date. They found out too late that true love is
invaluable. A friend declared drinks because he
launched the Nokia Communicator for over hundred
grand in 2002. Today that phone would embarrass
the owner and is a joke compared to the low cost
and everyday phones. What about the MTN SIM
card that many people went extra miles before they
bought for over 30k, today you will not buy it at
N100 because all networks are begging people to
even take it for free. People are still making the
most horrific sacrifices over 'vanity' and make
enemies over worthless material things. What can I
say? Look back at that one thing you want to kill or
die for today and see what becomes of it tomorrow.
There is absolutely nothing you can't achieve. All
you need is a little time and PATIENCE and you
would thank God without regrets. There is actually
nothing in this world that is worth going to Hell for,
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Meditate on this…




Culled and unedited

pazienza:


Why didn't Ogundipe as the highest ranked military officer pick up the mantle following Ironsi death, why did he flee for his life, leaving his juniors like Mutala Muhammad and co to run the show?

T9ksy:


Probably because he was much smarter than Ironsi who allowed himself to be manipulated into punching above his weight and delving into what he really have neo wherewithal to overcome.But i can't speak for ogundipe so i guess you will have to ask him when you get to the great beyond.

pazienza:


You are being wise by half. Ogundipe fled because you don't stand in the way of a military man with troops at his command. Seniority doesn't count, what is right doesn't count, what counted was might.

There was no way a civilian like Orizu would have stood in the way of Ironsi with Army in his command.
He( Orizu) did what most men would do, he surrendered and ran for his life.

You refuse to see this angle because Igbophobia has clogged your brain cells.

Those cars are still valued today in Europe and the US.

And what power exactly does Nwafor Orizu, a civilian have to stop a military officer like Ironsi with thousands of troops in his command?

Did Orizu really have a choice in the matter, or was Ironsi simply asking him( Orizu) nicely to hand over to him( Ironsi) in peace? Knowing he( Ironsi) can simply take it by force?

Ogundipe a military man could not even refuse his fellow military men, but somehow, some Yoruboid mofos believe that Orizu had to powers to hand over to anyone but Ironsi, simply on the basis that both were Igbos.

This is stupidity, truly Igbophobia reduces people to jellyfish, utterly brainless.
