Yakubu feels he can lie now because Ojukwu is no longer available to defend himself.

If what he said above is true, why din't he say it while the war veteran was still alive?

See your life and the life Ojukwu lived, who has more respect?

Gen Gowon that is stranger in his own land is coming out to talk
Stranger that has been chilling in Nigeria for quite a while not like that coward that led millions to the slaughter only to run away to seek asylum outside the country.

Which fatherly advice are you talking about, Awolowo that was released by Ojukwu and he later betrayed Ojukwu. Which fatherly advice ? pherhaps you don't know what you are talking about

And he waited For Ojukwu to die before saying this? You returned from Aburi and became sick to the extent you couldn't make a statement to a nation in tumult, isn't that the biggest lie and shows your level of irresponsibility?

This statement coming from someone who is supposed to be an elder statesman and somebody's role model is very disappointing. Our so called leaders are actually politically elevated cretins!

That means that as HoS, Gowon went all the way to Aburi to make peace without a position taken to make the peace?

Gowon's lies that fly in the face. Truth is that Gowon was less endopwed politically and intellectually than Oxford Educated Historian Ojukwu, therefore Gowon could not understand what he agreed upon before Ojukwu and the Ghanaian HoS who was intermediator.

It is the same situation that has continued since 1967 as less-endowed people have been managing Nigeria's apex political power because of a military rigged political structure and military constitution.

Mr. Gowon, how can you be resorting to cheap blackmail at your old age?
Does it not sound ridiculous that you could not make statements upon your return from Aburi on account of fever?
But the fever left you and you were able to discuss with David Ejoor after Ojukwu made statements?
You are simply one of the most mischievous elements that ruled this country and the seed of deceit you sowed then, you and your Plateau people are reaping in abundance now in the hand of the Fulanis.
Finally, learn not to blackmail the dead.

The bolded said it all,The FG was not only unprepared but also very incompetent and was outsmarted by brilliant Oxford graduate in the person of Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu at Aburi.They came back from Ghana and reneged on the accord signed in Aburi and resorted to guns and bullets.
Gen.Gowon,God does not answer the prayer of the wicked and the reason why Nigeria is at this state of stagnancy.
His excuse was that he fell ill.....This man should just shut it.
First Ojukwu knew what he wanted for his people but this Second class Aboki and his people went to a meeting at a critical time of our nation UNPREPARED.

shame to vultures who has lost the will to believe in the truth of what they were baby when it happened..

2morrow I will not be surprised if this same crook says 9ja was not amalgamated by Lord Lugard!

the shoe of lies left behind by ojukwu is what kanu thinks he could wear to gain cheap popularity....I learn he's now into hiding

even when there was no war yet...just like ojukwu did to bamboozle his Igbo followers by escaping to cotedivoire...Tufiakwa!!

In an honorable society, you should have been imprisoned with a life sentence. If the government continues to allows idiots like this to speak against the memory of millions they killed and to act as if our fathers were fools, many of us may be forced into the struggle with a far reaching consequence got all involved. Be warned.
