Good.

Why then should their activities bother me?


..Well you tell me..You claim Igbos contribute nothing to Nigeria yet hate IPOB for fighting for secession and helping you lots to be 'free' from Igbos..You are just like the typical lame 'one Nigerianists',who claims to be the provider of Igbos yet fights tooth and nail to stay attached to their providee..Thats simply madness at its peak

....Your lamentations and bitter comments against Igbos,IPOB and Nnamdi Kanu are littered all over this forum..yet you claim their activities does not 'bother you' undecided.

don't get me wrong here in nairaland when Igbo's lay claim to asaba Yoruba ll be screaming land grabbers but when the first coup is mentioned they ll be fast to say its an Igbo coup .now if nzeogwu from who is from delta state is not Igbo but will be remembered as Igbo whenever the coup is remembered my friend what's the rationale?

Only mischievous people say that "Igbo coup" nonsense. Tribe was the last thing on those youngsters' minds.

The pogroms did no cause the war. The immediate cause of the war was that Ojukwu would not accept Gowon as his commander. The pogroms could have been contained just like today or Igbos could have left without there being a war


Can you imagine what is coming out of your mouth?

30,000 Igbos slaughtered in a few days and it's not enough to cause a leader to order a secession?

So Gowon is worth 30,000 Souls?

Nzeogwu coup was branded Igbo coup and i ve never seen igbos denying it despite the fact that he is from Delta. I ve also not seen Nzeogwu`s kinsmen coming out to tell Nigerians that the coup was not an Igbo coup rather a Delta coup.
Such display of hypocrisy by the monarch is quite a shame.
When it is for bad they won't tell the world that they are Delta or Ikwerre and not Igbo but when it is for good they quickly deny being Igbo. Shame.
Meanwhile i am not an ipob member and i dont care about Biafra or Nnamdi Kanu. I prefer a United southern Nigeria.

Many people are also being killed today? Who has declared secession? There were terrorists but there were also decent people who shielded their Igbo neighbors. Ojukwu wanted the pogroms because it aligned with his aim. Example, if Ojukwu was made Head of state there would have been no war, even if the pogrom was 20 times bigger.

its just funny.
Where was the monarch when nzeogwu coup was tagged an Igbo coup?
He was quiet.
And how does he expect any Igbo leader to be close to Nzeogwu?
When any closeness to that name will raise eyebrows in the north due to the coup saga.

Sit down and let me educate you. Look at how it happened.

There was a counter coup to deal with those army officers who executed a coup on January 1966, this counter coup was in July 1966. Aguiyi Ironsi was head of state. The people who did the counter coup killed Aguiyi Ironsi, Fajuyi and a few others, they took over power and announced Yakubu Gowon as the head of government. Ojukwu never said anything, he was not a coupist and he was sitting in Enugu as the eastern governor. Then the pogroms started, stories upon stories of thousands of southerners, mostly igbos being killed, raped, beheaded and their heads paraded on the streets of Kano, Kaduna, Katsina and Lagos was all in the news. Trains laden with Igbos were stopped and hundreds of civilians were brought down and killed, some corpses were returned to the east without the head.

Ojukwu tried a lot to intervene, he called on the country's leadership to save the life of Igbos, nobody did anything to stop the killings, more riots broke out, even the Igbos sheltered at barracks and emir of Katsina palace were brought out and killed in the second round. The emir begged but the brainwashed mobs refused. The new president stood and watched from Dodan barracks. Ojukwu called for arrest and punishment of the offenders, nothing happened. Igbos has been chased away from all their positions in the North and Lagos. Our people returned home. Ojukwu was still in charge in the east. He never asked about Gowon.

Then negotiations started, Ojukwu told the country leadership that the Igbos no longer felt safe in Nigeria. He advocated for confedracy. Negotiations took everyone to Aburi, because Ojukwu no longer felt safe going to Lagos, African nations tried to broker peace in the talks. In the end, they all signed to have a confederation in Aburi. Gowon signed and Ojukwu signed, everyone left for Nigeria.

Gowon came back to Nigeria and decided to withdraw from his agreement in Aburi. Ojukwu now consulted with Igbo chiefs, they have the go ahead in a lot of meeting which culminated in the Ahiara declaration in Mbaise, current Imo state. Then Ojukwu declared Biafra. All igbos were inside Igboland when Ojukwu declared Biafra.

The federal government of Gowon was not happy about this and they swore to bring back Biafra to Nigeria. They attacked the Igbos first.

Now back to your question, where does Gowon seniority or Aguiyi Ironsi being the head of state after the pogroms come in? Aguiyi Ironsi who was killed even before the pogroms? Or Ojukwu who negotiated and got an agreement from Nigeria, only to be disappointed?

Try to read history, emancipate yourself from mental slavery.

The people who carried out the pogroms were not terrorists, they are normal residents of the city of Kano and Kaduna. Nothing like terrorism.

Aguiyi Ironsi cannot be head of state to stop the pogroms because he was dead before the pogroms started.

I told myself I'll serve out my ban in peace but your useless asses had to make me come up here.

Where on that f2king article did he say he's not igbo?

A freaking monarch was paid off by some useless politician to screech and your monkey ass is using it as an attempt to attack anioma. Thunder fire your useless head. You, hammerF and that Amarabae ashawo. Thunder destroy una worthless heads. Ndi ara

Didn't your obi of Onitsha as well as your Nri do the same thing literally last week. Show me a comment of you where you are advising and attacking onitsha and nri of telling the world "they are not igbo". Why are you screeching like a goat and insulting anioma. Carry your grievances with ikwerre amd don't drag us to the same category as those people.

Btw: goat Okpanam community have never denied being igbo be it past or present. Next time speak wtf you know instead of screeching your saliva everywhere. If you want to attack a community for denying being igbo after igbo took a blunt for wtf they did then the right place goes to ika people since most of the foot soliders during the "igbo coup" were them.
