wirinet: Why would I recommend a link to a person blinded with tribalism and sectionalism? It amounts to futile effort on my part to recommend credible links when most goons from certain sections of country had written on the newspapers and textbooks especially during the Nigeria/Biafra that D-34 was unitary instead of unification of civil service. There is a reason why Nigeria does not want the history of Nigeria/Biafra war become a curriculum in Nigerian school. |

What I don't understand is why the Yorubas are masturbat*ng on this thread,the one Nigeria you guys died for is in ruins, nothing is working,most African countries are doing better than us,still you guys are happy,just two weeks lockdown,you people are already killing and stealing from eachother,you won the war with the north still the north decides who rules....you guys should be ashamed of yourself for supporting one Nigeria The funny things is if we all seperated "Western region" (oduduwa republic)will be far ahead of the level Nigeria is now,so I wonder why you people are happy about one Nigeria Well another war will likely break out, because the north are the worst thing that can ever happen to any country,even UK will crash if the northerners start leading them.. |

You cook up all sorts of lies to favour you and claim other tribes hated and killed you for no reason. When other people who experienced the war write their own side of the story, you claim they are liars and trying to distort history. So every other tribes must accept only the story told by igbos? You want us to believe millions of igbos were killed and igbos didn't kill other tribes? You want us to believe the coup was not an ethnic coup. You want us to believe that other tribes just woke up one morning and started fighting igbos because they were jealous of the almighty and most successful igbos in Africa who owned 99% properties?

[quote author=gidgiddy post=88724799]The Nigerian media, particularly those of the North and west, have consistently propagated a series of lies against late Biafran Warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, for the last 50 years since the end of the war. Some of these lies have assumed a life of their own. Im here to debunk 7 of these lies so that people may know the truth 1) That Ojukwu lost no family member in the war: Contrary to popular belief that Ojukwu lost no relations to the war, Ojukwu lost his own brother. Ojukwus younger brother, Tom Bigger, died while fighting in the Nsukka sector of the war 2)That Ojukwu never visited the war front: Not only did Ojukwu visit the front several times, he even personally led "operation Igwuruta" that cleared Nigerian forces from Oguta. 3)That Ojukwu forced the minorities of the Eastern Region into Biafra without Consultation: Before Ojukwu declared Biafra, he convened the "Eastern Nigeria Consultative Forum", a body that comprised all the chiefs, provincial heads and trade union leaders of the 20 provinces that made up the old Eastern Region. They met in Enugu and voted overwhelmingly for the Eastern Region to become an independent country and mandated Ojukwu to declare Biafra. When you compare this to Nigeria which Lugard created in 1914 without even giving notice to anybody, you begin to understand the hypocrisy. 4) That Ojukwu was not senior to Gowon: Gowon was commissioned an officer in 1956 while Ojukwu was in 1957. However, Ojukwu joined the civil service in 1955. When Ojukwu was commissioned in 1957, his commission date was backdated to 1955 to reflect when he joined the civil service. This made Ojukwu to become senior to Gowon. 5)That Ojukwu dressed like a woman to escape Biafra: Ojukwu left Biafra via Uli Airport. Why would Ojukwu disguise himself as a woman to go an Airport in an area still under his control? Does that make any sense? Besides, people like NU Akpan, AA Madiebo and Philip Effiong have all written in their books how they escorted Ojukwu in a convoy to the Airport. 6) That Ojukwu was a coward for fleeing Biafra: The Oxford dictionary defines a coward as "a person who lacks the courage to do or endure dangerous or unpleasant things". Had Ojukwu wanted, he could have used his position to negotiate a top position in Gowon's government. Had Ojukwu wanted, he could taken his father millions and retired to any country in the world. Instead, Ojukwu fought a 3 year war of independence against impossible odds, against a much larger and better equiped enemy. In the end when he could not continue, he exited the scene as the alternative would have been to wait to be killed. Ojukwus bravery is in his will to declare the independence of an oppressed people and fight with for 3 years. Anyone who thinks he is a coward for not "staying back to be killed" is someone who is ignorant 7) That Ojukwu caused the war/declared war: Ojukwu did not cause the war and he never declared any war. Contrary to the lie(s) peddled against Ojukwu, Ojukwu actually tried to prevent war. While Igbos were being killed all over Nigeria, Ojukwu appealed for calm and protected Northerners in the East. Ojukwu even risked his personal safety to meet Gowon in Ghana to prevent war by reaching an agreement. Despite Ojukwus best efforts to prevent war, Gowon still went ahead to break the Aburi agreement they signed, which left Ojukwu with no option than to declare Biafra. Throughout the war, Ojukwu travelled out for several peace meetings brokered by the international community, none of which Gowon bothered to attend. It was Gowon that caused the war by breaking the agreement they signed and it was he who declared war. I totally disagree with no7, if he was peaceful and tried everything possible to prevent the war, the question is why the relationship btw Soviet union and other top Nigerian Igbo generals, more also dishing out military training regimenting the Igbo youth into unit, what was it for? 1 Like |
