Medicine after death, where were you when Nigerian government gave him a state burial, you should have gone there and stop them.

Bringing pass sh1t to discuss when we have pressing issues like arm herdsmen, fuel scarcity etc.

Well, remember he was first a Nigerian soldier. Even America pardoned the confederate secessionists long after their civil and now recognize them as American soldiers or veterans rather than confederate secessionists

Imbecilic post from a nonentity..
The question u should ask is why was murtalla mohammed given a state burial, a man that killed over 1 million of naijerians just because of their tribe and differences. They even dedicated the nations currency to him, people like gowon and Buhari should be in prison for killing Nigerians...

Some Nigerians Elite still reason like people from 1925,

By now isn't it clear that Nigeria problem began the day Gowon rejected the proposal of how to run Nigeria by Ojukwu.
Instead he went to fight against a man who knew what he want for his country and his people..

Today what is happening, the man that led Nigerians to kill fellow Nigerians is at his home while his people is slaughtered by foreigners(in buhari's voice)

Nigerian need morthan prayers... In short we need a gun pointed at our skull.

he was given a presidential pardon hence the need for a state burial.Do not forget he canvassed for a united Nigeria, and ran for President but did not win.

The more reason why they should spit at his grave, are you kidding me millions of people died because of him, the amnesty was more than enough, but a befitting burial? They just crossed the line of logic
he was a General, forget the rebel part, he still deserve d honour

Jonathan did not have the power to make lots of generals, commandants attend the funeral of a rebel it would have happened whether he liked it or not
You think so? Are we talking about the same Jonathan that was President of Nigeria and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces? And wasn't Ojukwu granted a pardon by Shagari's govt? So why do you still refer to him as a rebel?

That is why I said it was long after the civil war they were later recognized as American soldiers. They all died a long time ago before the American government later recognized all of them as Americans. Many of them are now buried at the national army cemetery as American soldiers

This thread has no place in the face of the current political impasse viz, Buhari's negligence to the mass murder going on the country. This thread is simply to divert attention from the main people that should be hated for their unabated heinous crimes.
