Yoruba would have preferred to join Ojukwu to scamper into Ivory Coast after all you father claimed they are cowards.

Foolish Igbo with foolish reason so Yoruba should team up with the fool that ran into the Bush leaving 2 millions foolish Igbo who team up with him in the Biafra war to perish like flies or fool ba ?

Yoruba get sense pass your father my brother.


Well at least Ojukwu fought for the freedom of of his people for 3 long years before 'scampering' to Ivory Coast.

For us Igbos, it is better to be an Ojukwu who fought for freedom of his people before running away, than to be an Adekunle, Obasanjo and Awolowo who all proudly fought to be slaves of the North

Reno is right.and for the record, the only time the Igbos overwhelmingly dealt with the Nigerian side advancing as far as Ore threatening to take over Lagos. That attack was led by a Yoruba military officer with the biafran.

For the record, the Nigerian side won't have won the war without the Yoruba on their side in fact THE WAR WON'T HAVE BEEN FOUGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE

I've been reading some pitiable comments on how ojukwu cowardly ran away.

Kids listen up.
A war is like a chess game , if the king is captured, that's the end of the game, you get the picture?

Jesus Christ ran to Egypt, Mohammed ran to Medina, even Nelson Mandela ran to Nigeria, so why won't ojukwu run?
Kids grow up

The reasoning of a typical foolish Igbo. Ojukwu as the right to attack the West but the West is suppose to Sidon look when being attacked. How your father is yet to commit suicide over your abundantly incomprehensible foolishness is a mystery.

Talking about who win the war for the zoo called nigeria,every right thinks human knows britain,egypt and some other won the war for ZOO.not any afonja.


If afonjas can win war for the zoo called nigeria,why did they lost part of the land (kwara) to fulanis.
Mumu, that is how these idiots will be denying France, Israel, Cameroon that helped them in the fight. Ask the fool to provide evidence, them no get. We all saw a French army that flew aircraft full of ammunition to the biafrans. Useless victim criers.

What Reno does not seem to know or understand is that while Ojukwu was busy fighting for the freedom of his people.........


Yoruba men like Adekunle and Obasanjo were busy fighting for all of Nigeria to be enslaved by the North

The war was all about the North taking control of Nigerias economic and political life and the natural slaves, Yoruba men like Adekunle and Obasanjo, were fighting for their Northern masters

Only Ojukwu has the balls to fight to free his people. Adekunle and Obasanjo fought to become slaves


If only the Igbos had agreed to the inclusion of a secession clause in the independent constitution, Ojukwu’s ill-fated war wouldn’t have been necessary.

Has Adekunle, Obasanjo and Awolowo had any sense, they would have been talking about Oduduwa Republic when Ojukwu was talking about Biafra. Instead, they all fought for a united Nigeria where the North would be masters of every body.

What a shame

Awolowo was sensible enough to see the need for a secession clause in Nigeria’s constitution. But guess what, the Igbos led by Azikiwe fought against secession. You guys should sit back and enjoy what you asked for.

If you read about the civil war, you will know why the Biafrans hate Benjamin Adekunle. The man was a pain in the ass of Ojukwu and the Biafran army.
At the end of the day, war is not the answer. It only leads to bloodshed and suffering.
People are shouting restructuring up and down, when it won't work. Until we stop worshipping our politicians and demand development all over Nigeria, 50 years from now, Nigeria go still be like this.

Clearly you have not read the history. Adekunle didn't do anything but took credit for the work of his first in command, Alabi-Isama. Most of the win given to Adekunle's platoons were led by Alabi-Isama. Adekunle was predominately in Lagos majority of the war as reported by Alabi-Isama himself. The first attack he led, they lost significantly hence, he was demoted. Even at that, whether Alabi-Isama or Adekunle, the platoon intentionally avoided areas where Biafra soliders were and went after civilians. Most of what they did was go after civilians that had no arms to defend themselves. They were, in my opinion, the ultimate definition of Cowardly and weak.

Didn't Obasanjo lose more than 1000 men in just one hour on his first time he led an attack to Biafra soldiers?

Adekunle that took credit for the work of his first in command and Obasanjo that lost more than 1000 men in his first hour are who won the Biafra war? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Reno must be high on chinese weed.

Niggeria won that war thanks to foreigners and this is without a doubt, A FACT!!! hence, they are currently struggling to curtail Boko Haram now that nobody is helping. The British, the Americans, the Egyptians, Cameroon, etc won that war for am. In addition, if we have to give credit to Niggerians that actually contributed then that title goes to Middle Belters. They were the soldiers that actually fought the Biafra soldiers. The others predominately went after unarmed civilians like cowards.

Even if secession clause had been in the constitution, it would not have helped anybody because in 1966 when the military came in, the constitution was suspended and removed.

Secession clause would never have been of any value to anybody

The only help the British provided was Weapons, and wars aren't won by weapons alone, but by determination and will-power. for example Saudi Arabia with all latest military toys and billions spent on buying sophisticated weapons are still unable to defeat rag tag Militias in Yemen.

Although one must give kudos to the Biafran troops, who with little weapons fought the FG, we must also learn not to undermine the efforts of some of the soldiers on the federal side.

I read a lot about Adekunle's effort in the war, I wouldn't want to talk about it because this thread is going tribal, I would also like to draw the attention of some great men who fought so well, men like Samuel Ogbemudia, Major Uchendu etc readily comes to mind.

Lol, you Igbo chestbeater do not cease to amaze me. So you think Biafra fought alone against Nigeria lol. There are lot of mercenaries employed by Biafra during the war and a lot of countries supported you guys too.

Infact when they saw that you guys are being killed like chicken and Ojukwu kept fighting without direction even while seeing his kinsmen dying like fowl they had to raise the issue in the UN hence why they always term the war genocide due to the high mortality rate.

Nigeria forces commanded by the brave Yorubas ended the war through force and strategic planning. You have to learn a lot from the superior Yoruba tribe and that is diplomacy, restraint, and tactical approach to situations.

A coward is not a person that is slow to anger, a coward is a person that started a war with propaganda, whose action led to the massacre of his tribesmen in their million and who fled with his tail behind his legs when the war raged on after realizing he has been defeated ideologically and physically, of course I’m talking of Ojukwu of unblessed memory. He is a true definition of a COWARD
