To prove to everyone that this man is lying against Ojukwu. What did Ojukwu and Gowon discussed in Aburi Ghana and was witnessed by the OAU?
What was the AGREEMENT in Aburi Ghana?
Why was the Easterners insisting on Aburi they stand?

Some people are just looking for a reason (whether they believe it or not) to justify their actions during the uncivil war and assisting to sustain this killing field and concentration camp called Nigeria! Their conscience is always there to remind them they kid no one but themselves!

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.

Even you that is talking, where is your tribe from. Don't pretend as if you know.

The old man's statement is full of lies. The restructure he s talking about that the yoruba people have been agitating was what Ojukwu pushed for at Aburi which Awolowo convinced Nigeria to rejected.

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?

Ode so I shouldn’t believe the one my parents told me but I should believe this one you father is telling me? Hypocrisy

And which is more believable? That my ancestors migrated from Israel or my ancestors fell down from heaven. Oga ethnic origin tracer.

You are an unrepentant liar!

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.

MelesZenawi:
Actually I have seen a thread like this earlier and this was not what was said. The topic was restructured because the body of the message is clearly different from the head topic.....So I wonder where the Op lift his head topic from.

Adebanjo said it clearly that it was Akintola that betrayed them


https://www.nairaland.com/5379926/echoes-1966-some-igbos-lying


It was a betrayal by Ladoke Akintola who alleged that some of us, who were dynamic in the party (Action Group) and had a relationship with Nkrumah who had a dynamic political party in Ghana, were planning to topple Balewa government

No be even today the betrayal started, the betrayal is wayback. Is inbuilt.

It was Akintola that betrayed Awolowo and was clearly written here.

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


The unity begging no be today ooooo...it been long long.
Yorubas una too like unity die ooooo (Smilling)


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.


I disagree with Adebanjo here. You lied.
Igbos have been fair to yorubas right from ages but the reverse is the case.
The fairness of Igbos to yorubas can never be equalled or un-paralled in anyway.
But what we get in return is the reverse.
Adebanjo you lied here.

Meanwhile yorubas never ever at any point in recorded history have an empire, NEVER.
Keep quiet,even in you schools in the east ,you were taught that. The British even acknowledge that , even other neighbouring nation state acknowledge it . So who are you ,a nonentity to say otherwise.
Re: Ayo Adebanjo: Ojukwu Betrayed Awolowo With The Civil War by tishbite41(m): 8:20am On Apr 12, 2021
It is very sad that a man of Adebanjo's age is still lying.

First of all, Ojukwu, not Gowon, released Awolowo. If Gowon had the power to release a person imprisoned in the East, there would have been no civil war in the first place. Yorubas always deny this fact to reduce the enormity of Awo's betrayal.

Awo and his wife were paid salaries. As a matter of fact, he was staying at a government lodge in Calabar and only reported to the prison every morning for documentation.

As for the war, it is well documented. 'The West will go if the East goes' is a statement credited to Awo. Let Adebanjo deny it. As for the 'starvation' statement and the 20 pounds policy, God will judge.

Only Femi Aribisala has been just enough to acknowledge Awo's treachery. Kudos to him.

Ojukwu was politically shortsighted?! OK, you're right but almost 60 years later you're fighting for what he fought for. Who's now shortsighted?
