I thought you are fighting for food. Is that what I explained. No one says you shouldn't fight for freedom. But claiming other people glory is an act of a loser.

But why dudging my challenge. So none of you can mention just one machinery that fought alongside Nigeria armies. Shame on you losers.

Sebi your elders think you will rule others forever ni. But when the table turned, you want to run. That is cowardice. Name any machinery Nigeria used and stop digressing.

[s]Be happy that the Federal Forces weren't ordered to destroy Igbos in the war but to quash the rebellion only.

Maybe today the word Igbo would be history.

Very very soon I will create a thread here to educate people like you who have been fed lies about the civil war hopefully you will stop your futile and lame chest beating and realize that you guys were indeed fortunate that it was Gowon that was Head of State then.[/s]

Biafrarep:


Trash!!

XANDERBOY85:


Oh please, just shut the fuc/k up with your bile-filled anti-Igbo rants! Nobody will take seriously any silly revisionist thread you create....that is nobody besides your fellow pathetic bigots!

gidgiddy:


You are a poor student of the history of the war. Do you know that all these mercenaries you are mentioning were paid by Biafra to fight for them? Even Taffy Williams offered his services free of charge because he believed that Biafra was a just cause.

In contrast, Nigeria recieved huge military support from Britain, Russia and Saudi Arabia. Tons of ammunition were airlifted and shipped to Nigeria free of charge by the British Government. Russia sent war planes to aid Nigeria. Saudi Arabia sent billions. British warships blockaded Biafra

And you are talking about a handful of mercenaries hired by the Biafran government?

Britain and Russia won the war for Nigeria based on the huge amount of military support they gave Nigeria

Had those countries stayed neutral, Nigeria had no chance of winning

Tobrasky:

Lol na your useless mama dey use your destiny play away match I dey blame sha.

But let me quickly condescend to your pathetic level of inanity and answer your daft question.

There were very few mercenaries that fought on the side of Biafra at the early stage of the war... notable names like Captain Alex, Taffy Williams, Marc Goosens, and Rolf Steiner were the ones that served longest in Biafra... and in that group, only Rolf Steiner and Taffy Williams stayed longest with Biafra. The rest either left due to lack of adequate payment and military support, or served their short terms of military contracts and left.

On the Nigerian side, the mercenaries aside from the massive military support Gowon got from Russia, Britain, Egypt... were countless. These mercenaries acted as logistic experts for the Nigerian mechanized units, air support systems (the Egyptian pilots were particularly notorious for flying Nigerian Mig planes in ruthless bombing raids on Biafran soft targets) , and then there were the British naval ratings and tactical experts who were very impactful in lots of the naval operations conducted by the Third Marine commando division in the riverine areas of Biafra... Biafra did not even get a QUARTER of the avalanche of support Nigeria got... and even the most ardent pro-Nigeria characters were honest enough to admit this fact.

To wrap up on your very stupid and IQ deficient questions about providing evidence, go PICK UP A FUCKING BOOK AND READ fool! materials on the Biafran war are easily accessible on the internet database you incontinent dunce, I know chronic stupidity runs deep in your family DNA, which would explain why your not-so-smart parents are the prototypical cynic failures that failed to provide the basic fundamentals of education for their unfortunate progenies, but thank me later for taking my time and effort in re-orientatating your daftness, even though it's a waste of time on my part.

Gabriel004:
[s]All the trash you put here is none of my business. It is the whistle your legendary lying parents blown to your hear you are blowing out. Didn't know why your parents forgot to tell you that the hell and heaven soldiers also come down to fight you.

What is my business if your mama is using your destiny to scavenge on the dumpsite. That is your family palava.

Sharap and name single one of the mercinery and post the pic here.

Marc goosen even lost his life.

Nobody will take you and your pathetic lying family serious except your fellow daft Fools. Be bold enough coward[/s].

Biafrarep:
The Igbos really passed through a lot. For a single ethnic group to be surrounded and descended on by hundreds of others as well as massive support given to them by the British government, yet they not only survived to tell the story but has today, become more prosperous than those who wanted to destroy them.

If what happened to the Igbos, had happened to others, it would have been an excuse for why they are not doing well, but the Igbos are different, look at our cities today. Look at our human development. Look at our exploits. What makes the progress more amazing is the fact that there has been a state sponsored policy to subjugate the region since the war ended! To their shock, the more they oppressed us, the more we rise above them!!

The hate they all have on the Igbos is still very obvious till today as evidenced from what is happening in Nigeria.

They foolishly did everything in their power to keep the Igbos down instead of maximizing their potentials for the good of the country, and today, they are suffering the consequences.

When the WW11 ended, America was clever enough to know that Germans and Jews were naturally gifted which prompted them to use their human resources to advance their country but Nigeria did the opposite.

So sad!!

desmond2pk:
The only reason i can say this didn't make front page yesterday is igbo hate. Some people don't like any positive news about igbos.
Thats the reason nigeria is like this today. Most yorubas whale voted buhari did it so that he would help drag igbos down. But look at them today.

You are always averse to the truth anyway so I won't be surprised.

You love playing the victim and at the same time chest beating that you are the best ethnic group in the world.

Classic narcissistic personality traits. Manipulative.

I will create the thread and I will back it up with photos from the civil war.

It will serve as an educational post to all those who truly want to know the truth of what happened during the Biafra war.

I know you are already shivering at the prospect of the real truth coming out.

Don't fear the truth. Embrace it. It will set you free from bitterness and hatred.

Gabriel004:
The way you guys are shifting goal post is out of this world. Mr historian, why do you people keep lying to yourself that you fought the war without any help from others. Spain, Germany, Portugal, Belgium, France etc that supported you did not support you with weapons. Lol, keep fooling yourself here. I have given you the picture of foreign armies on your battle field. Give that of Nigeria instead of writing epistle. Thanks

[s]Ogah shutup dia... Nobody hate the Igbo, and you can see that on how they r well accepted, and given so much freedom in other part of the country, even the North they have so wrong, and are still despising..

The only people hating here r the Igbos, because of the lies your parents keep feeding you with......The war have been fought, and we ve all moved on. But u peeps don't want to, even though you r the immediate cause of everything...[/s]

XANDERBOY85:


Dumbfuck! I take myself and this forum far too seriously! I need to Get a fuc/king life!

It's only on threads concerning Yorubas we see my diseased self show face......but when it's about our inept eastern governors and their atrocities, I go AWOL!

gidgiddy:


You are talking ignorantly. A foreign mercenary is just a hired Soldier, he does not fight in the name of any country, he only fights for money. That Biafra paid some foreign Soldiers, maybe because their of tactical knowledge of fighting, to assist in training and leading Biafran troops does not mean they recieved assistance from foreign nations.

Okoroawusa:
THIS DOCUMENTARY JUST MADE ME PROUD TO BE IGBO.

Yujin:

Lol. You so wish yet you hate them. The day Biafra will emerge, there will be wailing all over the remnant of Nigeria. Bookmark this post. Our borders will be filled with mines and electric fence.
