Hummmm
I wasn't born then but thanks for the insight

There's no insight here, juat lies n lies up in lies.

There is this impression that Chief Awolowo was used by the military government during the civil war to conquer the Igbo. How true is this?

No. Some Igbo spread that falsehood. What led to it? Before Ojukwu declared the war, Awolowo offered to go and speak to him. Gowon, who is alive, did not want to go to war. That was the time Chief Awolowo made the statement that if by an act of commission or omission, the East was allowed to secede, the West will go. That is what led Awolowo to prevail on Ojukwu not to secede but that they should fight for federalism. It was the insistence of Chief Awolowo to keep the Eastern Region in the federation that made Gowon fight the war because Gowon was not prepared to allow the East to go. That is what made Chief Awolowo to participate in the war. Remember that Chief Awolowo was Minister of Finance and all the allocations and allowances meant for the Eastern Region, Chief Awolowo kept them during the war and handed over to them after the war. He made Ikokwu the Minister of Economic Planning for the East after we were released from prison and he handed over all the money for the development of the East. It is on record.

Someone please explain the rubbish this man is saying. Was it not Awolowo who turned betrayer after release by Ojukwu ? Was it not Awolowo who served under Gowon hoping to become president but was disappointed just like one drug dealer will be disappointed in 2023 ? Was it not Awolowo who suggested starving the Igbo civilians ?

You can't rewrite history so easily.

Not Yorubas' faults that you were lied to by ancestors who lack knowledge of history.

You have zero knowledge of your history and you're here talking nonsense.

Where did Igbos originate from? No igbo knows. If you mention Isreal here, I would tear you slap.

The IGBOS are Hebrews.

My grandfather n my great grandfather who told us this never owned a television, never travelled abroad, died before the rise of the internet and yet they kept saying they were Hebrews...Who told dem? Pls use ur head sometimes, It will serve u well.

I didn't see any betrayal Is Awolowo God? is he the only person Ojukwu spoke to b4 the war? there are many sides to a story Gowon Spoke to Ojukwu b4 the war @ Aburi & there are videos

Please, do tell, where did your tribe originate from? Thanks

Those who have been fed lies by their unintelligent ancestors and parents with short memories should come and learn. Adebanjo has organised free education for them.

Before you counter Adebanjo with what your ancestors or parents toks you, ask yourself. If your Parents and ancestors knew so much about history, why have they been unable to trace your ethnic origin and history?

And what is the history of yorubas?

Where did they come from?

Oduduwa fell from the sky , that's ur So called history of where u come from

Mental.

Ultimatezlant:
Let the e war begin.

My own be say the regional heads of west, east both wanted the possibility of having a large country and expand their territory.

Their would have been no Nigeria let alone a civil war if everyone stayed firm in their region

They thought they could head it but the thing backfired

What do u mean by ''if everyone stayed in their region"

God bless u brother for this your post...

Dwelling on past betrayal stories especially the one surrounded by fallacies and ambiguity will only make us bitter... And bitterness impedes development.... Can't we just emulate Japan and USA history...

WAR DOES NOT DETERMINE WHO IS RIGHT ONLY WHO IS LEFT...

helinues:
One side of the story

what are you insinuating? everything he said is true check your history.

Adebanjo. You know that nothing will make northern Nigeria agree to restructure Nigeria politically to the type of regional system of governance you crave.
Nothing, never.

Yet for more than 20 years, Yoruba have begged for restructure.

Even when a Yoruba, Obasanjo, was President, he tried restructuring, but failed. So who else does Adebanjo believe can be president to restructure Nigeria?

Too many states and political constituencies created in the Northern region by northern military dictators assigned ownership of Nigeria to northern political class.
Even the cosmetic restructure done by Jonathan govt, Arewa refused to implement it.
.
Yoruba, take your Oduduwa country from Nigeria, the same way Igbos want to take their Biafra from Nigeria.
Those Southsouth groups who don't want to join Oduduw or Biafra can remain with north in Nigeria as satellite regions of Nigeria
because the south south tribes, except Ijaw, may not afford to form a country of their own,..

that is the only salvation for generations unborn of Igbo and Yoruba.

PureFace1:
Ojukwu was a coward and a Traitor

Every sensible person with the knowledge of History know that

That is why some westerners said we should not do anything with the East because they are not reliable. The Igbo have not been fair to us at all. (For instance, when Chief Awolowo met Ojukwu, he (Ojukwu) agreed that they were not going to wage a war. He (Awolowo) convinced him (Ojukwu) to go back to the round table and resolve the question of federalism. But no sooner than he (Ojukwu) returned to the East than he (Ojuwu) reneged on the agreement.



Ojukwu agreed with Awolowo not to go to War but the idiot went ahead with the war

""(For instance, when Chief Awolowo met Ojukwu, he (Ojukwu) agreed that they were not going to wage a war.

From where did u get this uselessly false information

Xisnin:
Of course we know.
Ojukwu agreed with Awolowo to pursue negotiation for federalism.
But before Awo could reach his base, Ojukwu had declared war on Nigeria.
Ojukwu's calculation is that the Nigerian government would assume that
Awo was in on the deal and would concentrate the military on the west.

If Ojukwu's calculations were correct, the FG would have declared war on the west first
on the wrong pretext that Awolowo's had declared war by aligning with Ojukwu. Thus, paving
a smooth path for secession since the government would be too busy fighting in the west to even
bother retaking the east.

Unfortunately for Ojukwu, his gambit failed and Gowon refused to declare war on the west even though
most of his advisers pressured him to do so.

God bless you. You said it all.

U are so addicted n obsessed with the IGBOS to the extent that u had to use the word IGBO as ur username.....This is how Kolomental starts

True, according to version of Yoruba story.. The Igbos have different version, same as North

Ask ur father the meaning of this statement made by Awolowo after he came out from prison, met wit Ojukwu, returned to yoruba land and met wit the yoruba congress...

"If the east goes, the West will go""

You are bloody gentiles with a doubtful ancestry and no trace of history.

Israeli scientists came to Igboland to pick DNA of Igbos to test for Jewish links and it was found that no trace of Jewish links was found in Igbo bloodlines.

It has been scientifically proven that you're not Jews. Don't come and tell us cock and bull nonsense stories here.

No need to read this long write up. From the history of Nigeria betrayal and sabotour is a known trait amongst south western Nigeria. Yorubas betrayed awolowo, yorubas betrayed abiola and the list goes on and on.

Because your emotional, unintelligent parents said so.

Alexis11:


God bless you. You said it all.

Afonja, he just said things u preferred to here.

His post was filled with useless lies.

Ask ur dad the meaning of this statement made by Awolowo - "If the east goes, the West will go"

From these statements, I see no reason for the hatred. I suggest that islam is involved with the hatred

May God bless yOu too sir.. The earlier we start to understand our individual differences.. The better for us.

The way you think is different from the way I think..

The way an image is formed before or behind your retina is different from the way the image is formed in mine... It appears differently.

No matter what happens.....God will still blessed and keep us.

Let's take China for Example... China's Population is about 1.4 Billion plus... Yet we don't hear war stories from that side.. We still dey 199+ Million ..yet we no wan allow peace make e rain in dx country... The stuff just weak me

Nice share !

I hope all this historical details are being archived for children unborn to understand Nigeria 's political history.

Historical details?

The way u people Reason ehh

By gone be by gone!! No one should undermine/discredit every chance either ojukwu or Awolowo took!!
They all did what they felt was best for their people, if Ojukwu had made Biafra a reality today it would have been a different case!
Let’s all move on we are tired of reading and visiting the history!!
Tribalism would not take us anywhere, we keep
Moving in circles
