When the Biafran army aggressed the west which was Awolowos homeland, what was he supposed to do?

The major problem between IBO and Yoruba is Lagos. the IBO's are trying to claimed or dominate Lagos( the commercial center) from the Yorubas because of their business acumen. they want to control Lagos right from the days of Louis ojukwu, who was a business merchant, Azikiwe try to control it, to the extend he rejected secession plan introduced by awolowo. because he feared awolowo will secede with Lagos. aguyi ironsi also try to control Lagos by implementing decree 34, just to hold on to Lagos. emeka ojukwu also try to invade Lagos during the war, after annexing Niger Delta. And the present generation of IBO youth still see Lagos as no mans land, the day IBO's will have access to sea for their business, that is the day IBO and Yoruba animosity will end.

STOP.

Igbos are TRADERS . What ACUMEN.?

Did they start Shoprirte or DSTV or Glo

People often confused Trading with business. They are not the same thing

Do Igbos manufacture Gala and FanYogo they sell so vigorously
Is Dangote Igbo?,
Are they the one building Eko Atlantic ,the refinery, Lekki Deep sea port, in the electricity distribution company sector where are they
Oil industry services e.g helicopters,. I can go on forever
The greatest proportion of business in Lagos is in the Capital markets, financial sector,banking, manufacturing
They gave been travelling to Asia for years to load containers and the come back to sell. That is the only business they know.
There are more serious businessmen in Nigeria than those loading and unloading containers
There are more impor

@ emboldened

Did igbos not vote en mass for Obasanjo in 2003 when they could have gone with Buhari and their son Okadigbo

My question to your questions

Did Igbos think Buhari stood a chance against Obasanjo?

Didn't Obasanjo reward igbos by giving them major roles in his administration?

Did Yorubas not vote Jonathan ahead of Buhari and a Yoruba man in 2011.

Did Jonathan not pay us back with insults ?

Bobonnukwu:

With all these stories that touch, those "mere traders" keep buying up your fathers lands and properties. New Igbo colonies are now springing up all over Lagos, and your people are been forced into the slums and impoverished hinterlands of Lagos and environs. One small Igbo boy based in Malaysia is now pricing the next available high cost land in Lagos as I'm typing this now

I guess the likes of Innoson, Cosachris, Ubah, Elumelu etc who built their brands with little or no government support unlike your brothers are fan yogo manufacturers abi?

Gowon was in charge sir, Gowon had all the power to act differently.

It was a military regime and Awolowo was not a military officer

If Awolowo said anything contrary to what the military wanted to hear, he would have ended up in prison himself.

Awolowo was merely part of Gowon Cabinet.

Smoke55:
see How You Are Contradicting Your Self,but You Claimed That The Nzeogwu Coup Was Spare Headed By The Igbos,despite Knowing All This Fact About The Millitary Rule..

Smoke55:
point Of Correction Jonathan Is Not Igbo,and Again In Politics You Dnt Vote A Candidate Because He Stand A Chance Against His Opponent,you Vote Because Of What You Will Benefit From Your Candidate,,,igbos Voted Atiku Against Buhari In 2019 Despite Knowing That Atiku Had A Little Or No Chance Of Defeating The Incubent Buhari,so Dnt Think That The Igbos Voted obasanjo Against Buhari Because They Had No Choice.

So what were Biafra soldiers doing at Ore on their way to the same Lagos they wanted nothing to do with?

ProT:


Oh! My bad; I allowed a window for folks to dwell more on syntax than the kernel of the discourse - the trivialising of Awolowo's role in Gowon's government, because (in someone's words) hE wAs MeReLy A cAbInEt MeMbEr.

Let me rephrase:
Every (known) mErE cAbInEt MeMbEr of the Nazi government (civilian or otherwise) who was fingered to have played a role in the Holocaust was served justice.
Ponder!

KingJa:


One thing you forgot to note is that the NAZIs and GERMANY LOST.

So yes, some of the cabinet members got brought to justice by the VICTORS.

In Nigeria’s civil war however, NIGERIA WON! and to the victor goes the spoils.

MoronicInvestigator

Are you always dense in skull? The Biafran soldiers were at Ore while headed to Lagos to kick Gowon out of Lagos. The cowering Yari.ba people did not have liver to tell Gowon and northern region political elites to get out of Lagos.

It was the same dumbass west which was Awolowo's homeland that harbored Gowon who had used Yoruba soldiers in Nigerian army to attack eastern region of Nigeria. Nigeria is called shithole in party because of idiotic logics such as the above post.

So Ojukwu has a right to attack Yoruba soldiers and Yoruba land but Yorubas dont have the right to attack Ojukwus men

Just wait the Yoruba e_worriors are coming, the will be here fighting the Igbos and will be busy selling all their land to them.

You don't get your secession by abusing Yorubas online, you push your secession agenda to the national assembly. If you want it, follow the proper channel. I am Yoruba, I have spent all my life in the East, I attended Government College Umuahia, I have Igbo friends, my woman is Igbo. But its not so cool when you keep attacking others. The truth is, an average Yoruba man is busy living his life, he doesn't care about Igbo secession or not. Then Kanu came into the picture with all those uncouth stories about the Yorubas. Live and let love, stop denigrating others, no Yoruba man is preventing you from having your desire country, the Yoruba man you keep insulting is not the national assembly. Follow the right channel, pursue constitutional amendment that will help you achieve your desire goals.

Are you saying the mighty Igbos can not singlehandedly fight for it own independence because of afonja media n agbero ?

Pls clarify so others Nigerians can see you beat your chest with nothing to show your bragging is nothing but noise from lazy nitwit that can not save itself except the true mighty Yoruba come to your rescue.

Dedetwo:
Ndigbo unlike Yari.ba do not vote on the national level due to ethnical or selfish interest. Ndigbo cannot cast their votes because one bent Igbo chap on the ticket. Ndigbo votes on chosen party with like compatible ideologies. Yari.ba only vote if their son or daughter is on the ticket. Only in Obasanjo's first they voted against a presumed son because another preferable son was on the other ticket.

The question should be"why must Igbos and yorubas share the same country.
