You bore me. Sounding like a broken record. Your superiors couldn't stand the heat when we dissected that article.

I doubt you can do better, but if you think otherwise, let's meet on those threads.

1. Zik at no point pressurized anyone to accept Nigeria, he used diplomacy and concessions.

2. Again, we have been up and down this secession clause issue many times, this point is redundant.

3. No, it was the chameleon and greedy Awolowo that destroyed any chance of of coalition between AG and NCNC. https://www.nairaland.com/3780719/politics-first-coalition-govt-nigeria

4 . Why exactly should Zik chose Awolowo rather than the North in 1979, after Awolowo alliance with the North in 1967 broke down, he now remembered the East?
Awolowo had proven not trustworthy and treacherous, Zik did well staying away from him in 1979.

5. Stop talking trash, no such record of Okpara stopping Zik from working with Awolowo exist, you Yorubas should stop this your penchant for blatant lies.

6. While Zik instilled political maturity in the East, diplomatically accommodated all factions through mastery of delicate act of power sharing, Awolowo greed and political immaturity saw him alienate Akintola and set his region on fire culminating to his imprisonment.
7. Nnamdi Kanu is entitled to his opinions, he is an Igbo and can boldly speak on demerits of Zik leadership as non is perfect on earth, but Yorubas have no right to compare Zik with Awolowo, as not even Kanu would do that.
Just park in your lane, biko.

These are deadly truths you have spoken. How pleasant it is that I have finally found an honest Igbo man who calls a spade a spade as regards the political misadventures of Zik which put his Igbo brothers and indeed the South in general in this mess we've been in till tomorrow.

In pursuit of his rather selfish albeit vainglorious agenda of being worshiped as Zik of Africa, the bastard kept on masturbating over an imaginary one Nigeria courtesy of which he took most of his decisions against common sense and simplest logic. A man who saw banana peels on a path he chose to thread but continued threading it all the same in the assumption that all he needed to do to avoid being brought down by the banana peels was to close his eyes to them and walk through. What a monumental fool. What kind of "nationalistic" instinct would inspire that level of abhorrence of stark reality? What sort of quest for national "unity" could inspire a man not to start his charity from home? What national unity in real terms can anyone achieve when his own constituency is not united enough before uniting with the others? The long and short of it is that Zik was a big fool who mistook pure moronism for nationalism.


Gbam. I ackowledge the fact that no one could've put it better.

Please leave them be. Zik deserved whatever insults heaped on him by his people. He wasn't a leader worth celebrating.
1. He presurised the north to accept the amalgamation against their wish and that of other southerners.
2. He and his party, NCNC went against other southern leaders to disallow the inclusion of secession in the independent constitution.
3. When there was an election stalemate, he had the golden opportunity to invite the AG to form the government with his party but chose to invite the NPC against the expectations of patriotic people and lovers of nigeria.
4. The same scenario repeated itself in the 2nd republic. The UPN was the senior partner in a prospective coalision with his NPP yet Awo offered to let him be the president while he, the senior partner, would be the finance minister in deference to Zik's seniority in age, yet again, he went for the NPN. That was the issue that led to him describing himself as " the beautiful bride of nigeria's politics", a euphemism for a political LovePeddler or harlot.
5. During the war, he started with biafra and ran back to nigeria when he sensed the direction of events. The mirage of his being termed "Zik of Africa" failed to impart positively for biafra in Africa.
Zik took all the aforemenrioned actions and more not in the interest of his people or nigeria but for his unbridled, vaulting ambition.
It is on record that before Chief Michael Okpara died, he publicly acknowledged that he would forever regret that he was one of those who refused to let Zik worked with Awolowo to lift the south in particular and nigeria in general.
While Awolowo was busy developing his region and people, Zik was busy hobnobbing with his masters upnorth for filthy lucre living his region and people in depravity.
Nnamdi Kanu made a valid reference to make his point- record of achievement. While he recorded one to the credit of a northern president who was in power for about 5 years, he saw nothing to the record of the so-called leader of his people for his influence in power spanning decades.
Please NK be.

The short story is that Zik judgement is for Ndiigbo and Ndiigbo alone, he can't be compared to Awolowo who all throughout out his life never matched Zik intellect.

Who are these superiors and how did you arrive at this preposterous assessment with which you keep chest beating? Only a Biafra would boast about a thing he should rather be ashame of.

Meanwhile your adored Nnamdi Kanu and leader of the agitation for your so much cherished Biafra Republic has just publicly confessed that your hero GEJ is a monumental failure in so much that even his illiterate wife would have been a better presidential material than him, and because Kanu is of your Igbo stock you have not made any attempt to debunk him for insulting your hero GEJ. Had Kanu been a non Igbo, your dubious likes would have been everywhere calling names and making hate statements on other tribes and accusing them of anti-Igbo agenda.
But here you have your own Igbo brother insulting your hero from your "beloved" SS and you curiously remain silent. Hypocrite!

If Awo was like Zik, you guys wouldn't be accusing him of tribalism like you do. Zik was a deluded pan africanist who wanted not only to lord it over Nigeria but if possible rule over Africa. That was the height of delusion. He traded his people and their biafra to remain relevant in Nigeria. Even when sardauna didn't wish to stay in Nigeria, the ambitious Zik begged him to. Now see how many Easterners have been wasted over one naijeriya since 1967?

Awo on the other hand was a realist and pragmatist who knew better than to pretend to love others more than his own people. He was a champion of the Yoruba who was not interested in other regions but in the welfare of his own people. If he had his way, nothing called Nigeria would have been birthed in 1960. Yoruba interest came first and last for him and he remained true to it till death.

you are right about Zik. My dad while telling me about Zik when I was still in Secondary school said "oo nya tinyere anyi na nsogbu a anyi no kitaa, o na emenu ka o chi a Africa".

Lol! I can palpate your frustrations. Sorry, you have nothing new to say about your failed "secession clause blunder" as you already exhausted your points. I can't be bothered re inventing the wheel, when I could easily post the old threads where you all failed to defend your falsehoods. cheesy

You are certainly suffering from senility. Kanu always insulted GEJ right from 2014 in his RB days, and even instructed Igbos not to participate in 2015 elections as he anticipated that GEJ was going to lose. You are just too uninformed.

Kanu is entitled to his opinions on GEJ, at least, he has been very consistent on it,even Kanu recognizes that no matter how bad GEJ was, he remains a better presidential material than Buhari.

Edwin Clark made similar scathing remarks against GEJ, same GEJ he was defending not long ago. Now that's instability on Clark part.

Even the mentality retarded can sense that your only means to play down Igbo guilt as the very architects of the non-negotiability of Nigeria's false unity invented and championed by your myopic leader Azikiwe is for you to keep denying that it was ever proposed even when all documental evidences to it slap and kiss you in the face continuously. Of course it is in the character of a typical Ipobian to live in denial of his own faults and misadventures while holding everyone else responsible for his misfortune.

The truth remains that all your attempts to rewrite history here have been demolished with strict resistance of superior logic and facts from me unlike when you were having a field day of lies before you strayed into my path in a thread from which you absconded at the expiration of your tales by moonlight.

Still in validation of my stance that you are lacking in comprehension ability, you have again shifted the issue of your own inconsistency to Kanu's "consistency". What I said is that your claim that Jonathan is your hero conflicts with yet another claim of yours that Kanu is your hero when Kanu disagrees with GEJ over the very issue for which you credit both of them with heroism.
To you, GEJ is a hero for believing in and sacrificing his region's interest for one "One-Nigeria", and yet again Kanu is a hero for fighting for the dismantling of "One-Nigeria". Does that make sense?
Of course it is in the same weird vein you have been trying to have it both ways here by trying, albeit silly, to confer heroism on both Azikiwe and Ojukwu on the same Biafra issue about which each of these two figures saw himself as hero and the other as villain. Only a confused, demented and brainwashed Sad Easterner like you would have two individuals as heros for an issue over which they themselves were sworn enemies. Then what exactly is your stance on that issue if one may ask? Of course such a stand validates the cliche that Igbos don't criticize their kinsmen no matter how wrong, hence the most tribalistic people in Nigeria and introducers of tribal politics.


Again, Kanu has just declared that GEJ's wife, a stark illiterate, would have been better than GEJ himself and never mentioned Buhari in that statement. Bringing Buhari into it is your own doing and smacks of your usual disease of putting words into people's mouths and thereby rewriting history. For a stark illiterate like GEJ's wife with her basket full of grammatical blunders coupled with her uncouth and uncivilized attitude to be better than GEJ in anyone's opinion can only mean that GEJ himself is the worst ever, thus worse than however bad Buhari might be. Please use your brain and apply common sense. Why reason with your anus and joystick?

Lol! Still frustrated as usual.

You are yet to provide any instance where Zik forcefully stopped Yorubas and Arewa from secession. Until you do this, you would always remain a frustrated being peddling your usual vacuous propaganda bereft of any iota of rationality.

Lol! A person reserves the right to chose his heroes, Kanu grouse with GEJ remains that GEJ was too weak, which many believes to be true, however, in Igboland, we don't throw away the baby with the bad water.
Kanu and GEJ would remain my heroes because both served different purposes at different times of Igbo history, and none of them were Igbophobic.

Aren't spouses supposed to be better half of each other? PEJ is educated strong woman whose aggressive nature compliments GEJ too gentlemanly nature, she is blunt, has no regard for political correctness, and bossy, those traits appeal to Kanu, it is by no means an indictment on GEJ, Kanu is entitled to his own opinions.

You are still searching for an instance in which Azikiwe forced other tribes into bondage by arm twisting them into the fraudulent one Nigeria he invented and championed in strategizing for Igbo domination after having shown you a link to an interview which Zik himself granted in 1975 and in which he made it clear that the British colonial authorities had to come to his aid with coercion of Awolowo after he failed to convince him to discard his push for secession clause provision? Then you will not be able to see the tallest building in the world even if you stand right in front of it.

Did I hear you say Igbos don't throw away the baby with the bath water?
What an interesting denial of core political attitude!
Well, you might be correct somehow as Igbos don't only throw away babies with the bath water but sometimes even throw away babies and retain the bath water which is useless. Below are some instances:


1. In 1959, Zik, the Igbo's baby, with Igbos support threw himself away and accepted the bath water of the Islamist core North by way of rejecting the proposal which would have made him Prime Minister, but accepting the one which he clearly knew would perpetually make his kinsmen forever third class citizens of the country. They allegedly did so to avenge a phantom cross carpeting in the Western Region. That was a clear case of throwing away the baby and retaining the stinking bath water which the Islamist Core North represented courtesy of the massacre of Igbos they had staged in 1945 and 1953. Only Igbos would spite those who allegedly used cross carpeting to floor them by marrying those who slaughtered them. See how people reason? Which is worse then? Because a buffalo felt offended by its fellow herd members it decides to pay them back by going to live with lions, pythons and hyenas in their colonies. Then who will that decision hurt more?

2. In 1979, because Ojukwu the ideal Igbo baby courtesy of his sacrifice for the Igbo race, on return from exile, did not join Zik's party, Igbos threw him away and retained the dirty, smelly and stinking bath water which Zik represented by the hindsight of the devastating consequences which his romance with the Core North wrought on Igbos. They disgraced Ojukwu by voting for one relatively unknown green horn ally of Zik's.



3. In 1999, the Igbo baby, Ekweme, who had virtually become the consensus PDP candidate endorsed by the PDP NWC, was thrown away by Igbos in acceptance of OBJ who symbolized all that was wrong with Nigeria ranging from fraud, indiscipline genocidal records, anti-SS land use act promulgation, etc.

4. In both 2003 and 2007, Igbos again threw away Ojukwu for OBJ and Yaradua who were more or less pro-establishment candidates.


Jonathan was not an Igbo baby as much as Ojukwu. So the use of GEJ'S acceptance as an illustration of the hypothesis of not throwing away the baby with the bath water by the very people who rejecting Ojukwu three times flat is pure bunkum.

You are never tired or ashame of rewriting history even if it is all too recent. Kanu did not only describe GEJ as weak according to you, but as both weak and incompetent. Then he went further to describe Shagari and other Norther leaders from even the Islamist Core North as better than him. He made it clear that GEJ abandoned the SE on pursuit of Northern interest. That exactly is the grouse which all truly concerned Southerners have with him. Only your likes believe that presidency is all about the mere occupancy of the seat for tribal egoism. If we are to go by Kanu's parameter, then Buhari so far is better than GEJ since he, just like other Core North presidents, has commenced the construction of SE roads which GEJ never attended to despite all the praises he received from Igbos who ironically have continued to reign curses on Buhari.

How can anyone in his right senses ascribe boldness to patience for her acts of foolishness? How does Patience's meanness translate to abhorrence for political correctness? Here was a woman who displayed a level historic crudity never known with any first lady. Did Buhari's wife not recently demonstrate boldness and aversion to political correctness by accusing her husband of appointing opportunists into his cabinet dominated by a cabal yet without insulting anyone or name-calling? Genuine boldness goes with some honesty. This woman started her criticism right from her own husband and president for that matter. But Patience hypocritically saw nothing wrong with her husband's choices of allies but blamed everyone else. Was that a honest display of boldness and truthfulness compared with Aisha Buhari's? Has Aisha Buhari picked up any quarrel with any NW governor the way Patience kept on rivalling Amaechi an elected governor? Would you prefer that Patience be your governor in Anambra? Patience was not bold but simply silly. Even her Rivers people don't speak of her proudly. Only Igbos admire her because fool hardiness is equal to boldness among them.
And don't forget that the same Patience, after leaving power, has been mending fences with Hausa-Fulanis by attending weddings of their children with her husband. Keep fooling yourself though.

ScotsReferendum:
Zik was the person who destroyed the ancestral unity between the Igbos and their neighbors

Zik abandoned his people in their hour of distress


Zik has no honor and pride

Zik never stood by his principle

Zik was easily moved out of the truth he knows all because of his desire to be famous


Ojukwu is more honored than Zik


What is the moral of the lesson


Never depart from the truth you know no matter the pressure you face.
but why is it that yiibo disrespect them self's

Deadlytruth:
Did I hear you say Igbos don't throw away the baby with the bath water?
What an interesting denial of core political attitude!
Well, you might be correct somehow as Igbos don't only throw away babies with the bath water but sometimes even throw away babies and retain the bath water which is useless......
What an interesting analogy!! I don laugh taya, I no fit laugh again!! cheesy
