Sometimes we make comments out of hatred and end up betraying our ignorance and foolishness.
For the simple reason that Ojukwu was granted a presidential pardon, he deserves the state burial and more. He didn't die as an enemy of the state. So, why the confusion, pain and hatred?
We all come here to say things we have little idea of when we can actually broaden our view by just reading.
I challenge anybody to a debate on all this noise about biafran war and what not.
Are you aware that Nzeogwu died at the initial stage of the war? His corpse was found by the Nigerian military and given a full military burial? Why not Ojukwu? Why so much hatred for a man that stood for one Nigeria until the killings became unbearable?
Are you aware that Ojukwu ordered Igbos back to the north where killings was resumed before the declaration of Biafra?
Where you aware that during the coup in Kaduna, Ojukwu was in charge of amoury and refused Nzeogwu access to amours?
Do you know that Nzeogwu and Obasanjo were best of pals?
What else is it that you don't know? If you know better, bring it on. I challenge you.
Instead of seeking for way forward for our country Nigeria, we are all going over what ought to hv been buried through true reconciliation and eschew marginalisation.
Wake up Nigerian youth. There is so much divide just to impede our progress.
Let Biafra rest, let Ojukwu rest. Let the leaders do what is right, agitations will fade out and even boko haram will be a thing of the past.
Peace.

Please ignore all these hate-filled, bile-pained, stomach-churning, eye-scratching, throat-bloated, pus-eared Afonja regurgitates especially Alariiwo and his many pseudonyms.

Its all about jealousy, Ojukwu rose so high and they don't see any of their children ever being so popular in this life and the rest.

Ojukwu was a heroes' hero. Haters can go on and jump into the lagoon.
