I guess this is what sparked the civil war.
It's time we start taking history lessons. The British kindled an inferno that is burned all Nigerians till date.

This video shows the same thing many of us have said over the years. That the Aburi agreement was supposed to bring peace in dark times. An agreement was agreed in Aburi. We now know that the then president of Ghana, General Ankrah, even asked all parties if they are happy with the agreement or wanted an admenment. They saud they were happy


They last words of the video says why the war was fought.

Any amendment to the agreement had to be done by all 4 Regions


In other words, Gowon had no right to abolish the 4 Regions unless all 4 Regional Military Governors gave him the permission to do so.

Gowon unilaterally abolished the Regions on the 28th of May 1967, thereby, contravening the Aburi agreement he signed. Ojukwu was left with no option but to declare Biafra.

When people say Ojukwu caused the war, check historical facts first.

What would you do when someone breaks a signed agrreement?

I had to watch that video three times before I took courage to post it here for us to see. The higher-ups know about this, that's why they choose to sweep the truth under the carpet. The earlier we all know what actually caused the war,the better for us.
