You are saying Ojukwu led his people to senseless killings? Ojukwu led his people to fight for their freedom. If a man cannot fight for his freedom, what can he fight for?
Freedom from what?
Olodo.
Are you saying Igbo are slaves ?

My Pastor said something: He said if u allow people to use u foolishly and u die in d process...u die in futility and might even end up in hell...while d person who used u might just go back to God and seek His forgiveness...moreover, our God is a merciful God.

And that is what Gowon has bn doing...he's bn very close to God.

Of course Igbos are slaves. If you have no right to decide if you can go your way, you are a slave.

You know nothing about struggle. Ojukwu lost almost all his father's wealth in that war. He father was one of the richest in the country, if he is that selfish as you paint it, he had no reason to go to war as he was very comfortable in every aspect of his life.

Hmmm he wasn't very comfortable they killed Aguiyi killed many Igbo soldiers he was obviously the next in line

The war could have been avoided but ego and certainty of winning pushed Ojukwu who somewhat knew he stood no chance but chose to gamble for oil sake. I'm the end, he lost the oil, lost his men and went ahead to refuse foreign aid because they would not allow him use their transport planes for sending guns.

He fled the country and returned a better Nigerian. Died and was buried a Nigerian. His wife and children are busy permutating and calculating how they would get hold of power while the impoverished and relatives of those he well used their heads bemoan the horrors of the war till date.

If Ojukwu is not wise, I wonder who is.
oh Ego? Like the man who rejected aburi accord and send tanks and warplanes down East? Pathetic human being

this comment was deleted by a bigoted Mod for the loads of truthfulness in it. Twas the reply that i gave to the quoted persons...but was very surprised to see it deleted

the comment is

its only a foolish and bloodthirsty leader that will sit around while his people are been killed right, left and center without doing nothing

av u guys ever ask what made ojukwu to take the actions that he took??

Are u guys not aware of how igbo officers were killed in July 1966 that was termed a revenge coup, eventually reaching more than 500 igbo army officers??

av u guys ask how a coup (that is said to a revenge for leaders that were killed in first coup) turned into pogroms and mass killings of the civilian populace who know nothing about the first coup

Is that how bloodthirsty u people are??


Well since its the igbos, whom we love to hate.are the ones been done these things, we would keep quite........................ But will come out with full force to attack them for the actions that they took(self defense)

because of the first coup,, igbos will never be president,,, but we will rather gladly give the president to a former illiterate coup plotter(wo should av been cooling his life in jail)
because why not, he is not the ambitious okechukwu

av always ask why all the coup plotters from 1966(mutala mohammed,obasanjo, buhari,abacha,gowon) were never punished, sent to jail or killed?? And why the civilian populace of theirs were not killed in the thousands because their leaders engaged in coup plotting...and treason??

Instead they were all honord, paid pensions for stealing billions and were even awarded the presidency.

Every Nigerian knows that it was these crooked leaders that took Nigeria to ruins and introduced corruption

but no, they will regale you with tales on how igbos ruined Nigeria by introducing the first coup, also tru the unification degree and through hate speeches.

Well as for me, the igbos must av been a special breed of people to still hold Nigeria down after one of their own ruled the country

we all know that for us all to progress as a people,,, its either separation or restructuring that is best for........................
Igbos are for both but most are for seperation which they strive for,,some even been killed........................ What about u and ur people...


Now is the time for action...

Remember, our decisions, actions and inactivitys as a people now will affect our unborn children and future generations

Ballmer:
but a whole generation of Igbo suffering from dementia blame Buhari for the war. That is what hatred does to one soul. May God help the Igbo tribe and free it from hate.

Na only dem hausa Fulani Yoruba Kanuri Muslims Singaporeans Malaysian South Africans Kenyans Chinese Arabs n many more de hate but they’d blame everyone else for hating them instead of looking inward to cure their souls of inhereted hate.


wow just how ignorant can u be?
I'm Igbo and all these u said is nonsense



and we don't HATE people trust me , if u really know Igbo people ull know we don't carry hate around with the way we speak and all , we only protest and complain about a lot of things because a lot of things are wrong.

those who u could say are capable of hate are those that are the greatest killers ever , which tribe in Nigeria do u think has killed another tribe the most ?!
yes! that's right , the fulani/Hausa ! no tribe has committed mass murder like these guys , u can't commit murder like that without having a ton of hatred within u , if we igbos hated the Fulani/Hausa like u said can u blame us? they've killed us the most! but the thing is we don't even hate them, we even fight among our Yoruba brothers than we do them , do u know why?
because what's the point of hating beggers and shoemakers and gatemen?! they're so insignificant that it's a waste of time!

Ojukwu led his people to war because he was eyeing the Niger Delta oil like a bat.


just how ignorant can a person be ?

did u know that after the first so called 'igbo' coup , tens of thousands of Igbos were massacred in the north and the government did nothing about it , not to talk of the Igbo officers that were killed


who in their right mind will sit down and watch their people be killed and do nothing about it?!

that's why ojukwu created Biafra and let me tell
Biafra wasn't formed by force the so called niger deltans ( which didn't exist at the time , or better still weren't called that) agreed to it


get ur facts right aboki

igbos are succeeeding in business more than others without the oil
igbos are not lazy
is the oil now in the hands of the niger deltans? NO

igbos are in niger delta as indigenes
ok, u deprived igbos and niger delta the oil and gave it to hausa and yoruba

are igbos the poorest people in nigeria?
are they the least educated
are igbos and niger deltans not making international waves as against ur wish (yoruba and hausa)
are we the most disease prone people in nigeria?

igbos and niger deltans have left the oil for u people(yoruba and hausa) and its causing plagues in ur lands, because u are not the owner
