Ojukwu's unpreparedness for the war and audacious & unilateral declaration of another country within Nigeria, is what led to the wipeout of the over 3 million Ibos, not anything else.

If anyone has a forgiving (not forgiven) heart, it is Ibos who never lynched him for leading them to an avoidable war, running away in the heat of battle and shamelessly having the guts to contest for the Presidency of a united ONE Nigeria.

If Ojukwu could run from Gowon in female clothes while he was a young soldier, I can only imagine his alarm when he heard his nemesis was coming to check on him again.
so what should Benue people do with Fulani herds men? Should they kill any Fulani they meet on the road or forest,anyways Fulani people can kill like they want in the north or middle belt they tried it with Igbo's the way we reacted gave them impression that Igbo's are not Anu ana Eri Eri if u will understand

Whatever happened to building medical facilities and equipping them? Why is Buhari off to London to enjoy superior medical care if truly that is not a factor?

Imagine the deduction.

I certainly believe in God. I also believe He created and gave us brains to be used. Countries developing space ships and going to the moon, making breakthroughs in different fields were not created with two heads, were they?

Ojukwu must have had a heart bigger than.the moon. To welcome a man who killed over 3 million of your breathren into your house is not something everyone can do.

Ojukwu must have had a very forgiven heart.
I wonder how some of you people reason. Ojukwu declared war on Nigeria. He provoked the war and fought the war. People die at a consequence of war and deaths were recorded on both sides. Of Ojukwu was ill prepared, why did he take the plunge?

You should rather be grateful to Nigeria for having such a large heart as to forgive such a treasonable act as committed by Ojukwu.

What many may not know is that Ojukwu had a Masters degree from Oxford when he joined Nigeria Army and he was also the first Graduate to join,so he reasoning was way above his contemporaries and for those thinking that he was selfish,his father was the Dangote of that time,so he had much to lose,patrotism was the key and such brave men as he are rare.

Maybe an error, buh well-said cos we ain't up to developing countries yet. Hence we're ages behind developed countries so we can't even start competing wt dem yet.

Men in their 30's, 40's and 50's are dying daily across the country from various ailments, while other men in their 70's & 80's are doing fine and enjoying their sunset in health.

What this implies is that good health is ultimately a gift from God in his infinite grace and mercies, so don't ridicule the medically challenged lest you tempt fate.

Close that hole that looks like mouth. If your brothers are killed in the North and send to you via train, you will smile, Coward. Ojukwu's father was the richest man in West Africa, so don't start.

When Ojukwu was fighting for Biafra, you Nigerians didnt like it.

When he returned and embraced 'one Nigeria', contested elections as a Nigerian, you guys are still complaining.

Ojukwu, was an old man. His own fighting for Biafra is over. However, we the younger generation are seeking our freedom just like he did.

So ojukwu did not murder any troops under the man's command? Or had no fault?

Anyway Which choice did ojukwu have? If a man that beat you up so badly that it can cause you to run for your life and not regard the long distance from anambra to abidjan decides to pay you a visit even at 12am you no go welcome am? grin

Was that why Awolowo committed suicide?

Igbos respect freedom fighters not politicians. Ojukwu the Biafran freedom fighter is who Igbos respect, not Ojukwu the APGA presidential candidate.

Another example is Nnamdi Kanu. Kanu the IPOB freedom fighter can call for a million man protest and the numbers will come out.

But if Kanu ever joins politics and calls for a million people to his campaign, nobody will show up.

liars like you are quite pathetic . So as you Yorubas prefer selling out your people and even leaders such as mko and awolowo who later poisoned himself with the cheapest rat poison ever, you expect Igbos to behave same way, allowing the genocide in the north against the Igbos go on without any reaction or retaliation like afonjas is what would have made you praise Ojokwu. You afonjas can keep deceiving yourselves but in a very short while you will see the clear difference between Igbos and afonjas. We speak and aggitate for our future generations unlike afonjas who go to war because of oloyin beans. Time will tell better.
