Where was Nnamdi Azikiwe during 1967 to 1970 civil war?

I have been asking myself this question. This man went into hiding during those years just to save himself. And the war was dealing mercilessly the IBO's as at the time.

I agree he was just a ceremonial president earlier but he didn't use his statues as former head of state to help his people.

Any other information about him during those period should be posted here please.

Go and read "There was a Country" by Chinua Achebe !

useless chino..stop spewing thrash this early morning.. Zik's spent of his time in Nsukka his grandmother's side than in onitsha

You don't need to insult people to make your point.

Same thing i heard that zik was closer to his people from Nsukka that was why he chose Nsukka when it was time to establish the first indigenous university in Nigeria.

"Maj.Okafor, one captain & a subaltern were assigned to arrest Maj.Gen.Ironsi and Brig. Maimalari..........

I returned to the main group @ the (Dodan Barracks) Officers' Mess.Okafor came....with the bad news that Gen.Ironsi had not been found @ home...But he has since surfaced @ the Dodan Barracks & succeeded in raising troops against us......

After that, he was said to have driven to the 2nd Battalion Barracks @ Ikeja to raise more troops against us.Yet none of the other groups has seen him to accost & arrest him.The news of Ironsi's escape came as a shock to all of us."

"WHY WE STRUCK(The Story Of The First Nigerian Coup)"-Adewale Ademoyega(Page 72-75).

People are very ignorant of what transpired then. Like Zik, Ironsi was a great patriot who believed in Nigeria. They had good reasons to. Nigeria was very promising.
Yes with hindsight some may see them as naive. But back then Igbo were already the best travelled across Nigeria. They saw the beauty of Nigerian diversity. They had no ethnic agenda. Ironsi even sought to bring Nigerians closer by bringing Unitarism, a stick used to flog him nowadays.
Lack of such leaders who believe in Nigeria is the cause of our predicament now.

chef22991578729:
OGBONNA you are such a useless frustrated dirty Aba pig. Zik was only visiting Nsukka then because he was the founder and pro-chancelor of the school(UNN). Zik spent most of his life in Lagos and Onitsha where he set up West African Pilot newspaper to serve the East and West.

That was why his main house and resting place is in Onitsha where his great grand father originated from.

Bastard go and read history to know more about Zik of Africa.

This is nothing but plain truth known by everyone that ever read history books.

LabDNA:


What kind of lies do some yoruba parents tell their kids when narrating history? Ironsi was targeted for assasination too. His head was also wanted on a plate by the coupists. It was well documented by Major Wale Ademoyega who was one of the coupists in his book..

You damned illiterates of history are polluting the cyberspace with your revisionism.

Stop it.

In fact, he was the major target. He was at a meeting with Fajuyi, where they demanded Fajuyi to invite him down. He(Fajuyi) was reluctant about it, they (coupists ) went in themselves brought him out claiming he has a magic crocodile stick, manhandle him, neglecting danjumas advice and then dashed away with him to an unknown place where he was killed with col. Faj.

He should have gone for that meeting. That is where I actually blamed him. He was warned severally for an impending coup

He was around that time and supported biafra as well. But wen the killings became too much, he later dissociated himself from the whole biafra thing and call for an end to the war and the killings.

He was even quoted to have urged France to stop sending aids to Biafra, referring to us as ''rebels''.I lost all my respects to him when I saw this

Beautiful question.
I think I have Answer to one.
WHY DID AZIKWE BETRAYED AWOLOWO HAVEN'T REACHED AN AGREEMENT OF FORMING UNITARY GOVERNMENT BETWEEN THE DUO BY FORMING ALLIANCE WITH THE NORTH AND ACCEPTING CEREMONIAL PRESIDENT
He did so because to him, he can't control Awolowo and his people who then were Learned and think he can control Sadauna's. That's selfishness.
Anytime I see our brothers from the East accusing Yorubas of betrayal, It amazes me as to which maybe they've never heard of Zik's incessant betrayal to Awolowo

Showed bigotry how? By not summarily executing the mostly Western Igbo/Midwestern Igbo coup plotters? Because Anioma Igbo were called such at that time.

Remember he had barely 6 months in office.

The same place where Tinubu is right now. Both men will be remembered for the injustice they orchestrated on the south. The only difference is that one the former did out if stupidity for the trash called one Nigeria while the other is doing it now for selfish reasons.

Both of them fingers from the same leprous hand

Even aside the execution, no trial to show CONCERN, employments in all Government parastatals were offered to The Igbos. He's the architect of the sudden death that befall him. I'm not mocking him, that's just the reality

There's no eastern region again today in Nigeria.

Today, the richesr region in Nigeria is SS, Followed by SE and then SW is third.

To be fair. I respect yorubas a lot. Personally I have no qualms with them, they are a great race but some cantankerous elements spread fallacies that destroy the fabric of humanity.

You should join hands with me to call them out.
