This Is Obasanjo's View About Biafra In his Last Interview. As one of the leading soldiers that participated in bringing an end to the Biafra war, how do you feel about the fresh agitation for Biafra?. Fake agitation; you people make a mountain out of a molehill. These are boys who want to take people unawares and get money out of them in the name of Biafra. These are people you should ignore, I don’t talk about Biafra. (Philip) Effiong came and said Biafra ceased to exist and since that day, Biafra has ceased to exist.

Were there some promises the Nigerian state made to the Igbo nation which were not fulfilled?

Not as far as Biafra is concerned. We absorbed those we should absorb both into the civil service and into the military. Even those we didn’t absorb, who we initially regarded as being retired without benefit, later on we even gave them their benefits. Abandoned houses were returned. Within 10 years of the end of the civil war, an Igbo man became the vice-president of our country. It took the Americans 100 years before they got to that point. So, what are you talking about?.

They have held different ministerial positions existing in this country. We have Igbo as the Governor of Central Bank, Igbo has headed many parastatals in this country. That’s why these miscreants should be ignored. They want to get money and they go round and say, ‘We are still being victimised. We are still being treated badly in Nigeria,’ so that they can take money from people.

Don’t you think that Igbo leaders are not speaking against this phenomenon?

I won’t blame the Igbo leaders. I will ignore them (the agitators). The Igbo leaders that I’ve talked about, I mean the ones I’ve mentioned; Joe Irukwu won’t go out and do that type of thing, and many of them. The people who are doing this are the same people you will find in 419, they are the same people you will find in drugs. This (pro-Biafra agitation) is another source of money for them as far as they are concerned.

OBJ is damned liar, somebody already bursted his lies on NL with this thread.

Andrew Johnson the next president after the death of wartime president Abraham lincoln, was from the break away confederates south of US that lost the war. Why can't zooogerian use simple google?

..And finally he should comparing US civil war with the Nigerian uncivil war. The US army didn't go around tearing up bellies of pregnant women and killing infants like animals in nigeria army. They were fighting against the Confedrates South who wanted to keep slaves. It was a noble and even the slaves joined in the fight to make it a success. Comparing that with the uncivil whose aim was to take resources of the East(Biafraland) and hand it over to the Animalistic, blood thirsty north is an injustice to the phrase 'civil war'. Unlettered OBJ should be guided, that you won a war with the help imperialists doesn't make you right. Lies may last 50, 100 years but truth will reign eventually. #TheBiafranTruthisHere #TheLyingZooFallsFinally.
