koladebrainiac:oh Effiong was the only choice amongst millions of capable Igbo men? my point was to show the easily misleds that the division in the (now defunct) eastern Nigeria started after the civil war..before then, there was no difference between an okoro and an Effiong.. OH?! ojukwu never wanted war? coming from a Yoruba man this is a surprise to me..I thought he was labelled a warmonger by the Lagos/Ibadan press.. again I am lost in a state of bewilderment! so Yorubas fought and died for Biafra? what changed since then? I must have skipped that part in the history classes. 3 Likes |

oglalasioux:Mr know all, why was Ojukwu then boasting as if he had nuclear weapons? How can u go to war without preparing. According to his statements in some interview, he spoke as if Nigeria had no chance in the war, he spoke as if he will win it. U all should be asking him why he had to lie to u people that he was prepared for the war, and not coming here to tell me I know nothing about wars. Ur hero was a coward, short and simple 6 Likes 1 Share |

OJUcrook: The war was the Nigerian/ Biafran war. There was nothing like neutality. Ejoor was just a Military Governor under Gowon, he had no power to enforce any neutality for the mid west as long as he was under Gowons command. Nigeria fired on the Biafran border town of Gakem in Ogoja on the 6th of July1967 sparking off the war. It was not until a month later that Ojukwu invaded the mid west. Nigeria invaded Biafra and Biafra invaded back. The bottomline here is that Gowon and Nigeria caused the war by breaching a sacred agreement signed right in front of the president of Ghana, General Ankarah. If Gowon had reservations about the agreement, he should have called another meeting and an amendment could have been discussed. Instead, Gowon went against the most important point of the Aburi accord, not to dismantle the 4 regions unless all 4 Military Governors agreed with him. Gowon chose the path of war. After that, Ojukwu was justified in fighting to uphold the sovereignty of his people. The war was all about the economic and political control of Nigeria by the North and Ojukwu was the only one who had the courage to fight that oppression. To this day, the South of Nigeria are still "begging" the North for the very same things Ojukwu fought for, true federalism, resource control, autonomy. Ojukwu has long been vindicated. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ZoneBslayer: Effiong was one of the few brilliant soldier Nigeria has better than Gowon n the rest. Even better than Ojukwu. He does not fight conventional war . he has the mind of General Sun tsu . It would be unwise to let Effiong go out of east then. Secondly it would be very embarrassing to give effiong any position lesser than vice. Hian I said some Yoruba soldiers not all. |

The Nigerian Revolution and The Biafran War, written by Maj Gen. Alexander .A. Madiebo. If you have not read this book, then you know nothing about the January coup(revolution), the July counter coup, the progroms(massacre of ibos in the north), the May secession, and the war afterwards. My father was conscripted and if you hear his stories, you wouldn't wish for war. |

gidgiddy: The unilateral declaration of secession was basically a declaration of war. Forget about when Nigeria fired first. There was no Biafran border, all was within the territory of Nigeria. Nigerians are begging the north? Why don't you simply say the truth that the same thing one ibo man signed away with a pen, Ojukwu tried to retrieve it with a gun. I wonder if Ojukwu ever encouraged Ironsi in making the decree 34. 3 Likes |

Aigbofa: No way. It was the unilateral abrogation of the Aburi agreement by Gowon which caused secession which in turn caused war. That same Aburi agreement made Nigeria even more federal in nature than before Ironsi came to power. 2 Likes |

MrMcJay: Biafran soldiers decimated your Nigerian soldiers that is a recorded FACT!!!! Nigerian with over 120,000 had a military casualties of 40, 000 men while biafran with only 30,000 men (all ill equipped unlike the Nigerian soliders) had 15,000 men. Infact, it's documented that 40,000 members died from your side..the soliders announced that it was in fact (500,000 men). Alabi-Isama himself stated that the Nigerian soliders/army was at least a million http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/05/biafran-soldiers-protest-in-ibadan/ Meaning your own government lied on it'so number just to save face...no wonder they removed history from school curriculum. Anyway, this means that men of 30,000 slapped men of a million which had more weapons than them so silly that they pathetically avoided them to seek their civilians like the cowards they are (evidence supports that weak tactics considering obasanjo attacking the bayelsa village, killing several innocent civilians when he couldn't defeat Massob. Similar to how your Buhari is currently attacking civilian communities when he couldn'the get to NDA) Your loser ass army have always been the WEAK mofo they are even with assistance. If not for Western nation assisting Nigeria and the Nigerian army didn't pathetically go after Civilians and fought like real men, Biafra soliders would have slaughtered those men and this is a fact. Btw: Next time you want to wrote jargon stories, be smart enough to make sure NONE of the participants of the war have not spoken regarding the discussion Here's a quote from Alabi-Isama who was one of Nigerian Army greatest assert back then https://www.google.com/amp/thenationonlineng.net/how-murtalas-error-caused-death-of-1500-federal-troops-in-a-day-alabi-isama-in-memoirs/amp/?client=ms-android-verizon Even your obasanjo lost 1000 men in ONE HOUR against the biafran soliders http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/06/19/civil-war-the-many-lies-of-obasanjo/ Example of real men, not the bunch of cowards who got defeated by women, as well as their land taken from them and till date, theyou still being ruled over. Must such to be yoloba Savage. No wonder una are still Norths b1tch till this very day.
