How did you refute our sources.

By lying to yourself it was doctored from another event. With all those reputable sources all playing along too because Gowon is the Emperor and conquerer of Rome, America, and Britain.

I swear, you bia.frauds just dey make me laugh

While Ojukwu was alive, he did not demur in maintaining that he freed Awo ...

How come Gowon never challenged him but chose a convenient time to play on the psyche of gullible Yorubas?

Awo was known to have visited the East just before the outbreak of the war: Does that not suggest that a continuation of deliberations which started while he was incarcerated was the motive?

Maybe you should as well revise the fact that Awo mooted the excision of the Western Region during that turbulent time...

ScotMisile:
Maybe in a commando style Gowon sneaked into Calabar using the prison break method to free Awo and fly him back to Lagos.

The federal prison is not in Ojuku command 5 days after the counter coup.

Do you guys even read at all? Call your professors to duel with me instead and make my work easy.

I’ve told your kinsmen to provide one source for months but NO one was able to provide one. Even Ojuku children cannot provide it.

Shame on you guys!

Ogbeni Gowon said he released Awolowo. It’s in the premium times news so stop saying rubbish.

Provide a source to back your claims coz they belong to the trash.

I’ve asked almost all Igbo I’ve encountered for months to provide me A SINGLE reputable source. No one provide one except for Ojuku words.

You are all LIARS

Gowon would never challenge a COWARD. Gowon thinks of Ojukwu as less of a man.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAKkC8Yi5UY

The man ran and hid for decades. How come he didn’t face Gowon and tell him to his face that he freed Awolowo?

Why did he wait DECADES! Before concocting a story or feeding into a false rumour that he knows were all lies.

Why didn’t he offer evidence to show that he released Awolowo.. Gowon has evidence...read more from the excerpts below from the horses mouth Gowon himslef

Gowon said Ojuku said I will fight to the last man. Only for him to cowardly run away when it’s time to do what he said.

He is a coward that deserves no honor!

Gandollar:
Op you spoiled a very beautiful read with the last part.
Must you bring in Rats to remind us Baba Awolowo committed suicide with rat poison? Was it necessary?

May his soul rest in peace

It is difficult to force-feed you with common sense. and deductive reasoning...

Every man and his dog know that newspapers are susceptible to occasional errors and generalizations.

Why would a New York Times, a somewhat right-leaning tabloid attribute Awo's release to Ojukwu who in the eyes of UK and US was a recalcitrant rebel?

Is it outside the realm of probability that Gowon and the Nigerian Government intent on milking the release of Awo flew the propaganda kite by claiming to have released him?

You need to think, Ogbeni...Stop allowing emotions to becloud your sense of reasoning...

Awo was released several months before the civil war. Infact when he was released, Gowon just took power 4-7 days and the the Biafran war haven’t even been thought about. Nigeria is still Nigeria and Ironsi was the president just few days ago from that date of Awo release.

They are still searching for the corpse of Ironsi and the British wouldn’t have even have any reason to term the Igbos as rebels.

Your argument is faulty and baseless. How can the British/Americans term Igbos rebel when the Igbos didn’t even wage any war against Nigeria or even dreamt about seceding as at that moment.

Lest I forget, I’m still waiting for your source. I will make sure I deal with you until you have nothing else to say!

YorubaHero12:


Ojuku read.

It’s not hard to read because the prints is just one page that detailed what happened. Awo was flown from Calabar in a helicopter and the entourage simply drove him straight to Gowon office in Lagos where they chatted and shook hand.

He was flown from the federal prison to Lagos and the video is just when he met with Gowon.

Read the paper below. Can you see it 100% correlates with the video? Yet both of them are from a different source.

Ojuku at least have shame and stop ridiculing the image of the late coward that ran away like a woman.

I have no confidence in this trash you are pasting here.

It looks like a poorly doctored amateur job.

The narrative simply does not make sense not to talk of sundry errors that riddle the extract.

Gowon was first address as a Lt Col and then as a Col ostensibly on the same page!

The storyline suggested that Awo and Enahoro were released while Ironsi was still assumed kidnapped.

What you pasted here flies in the face of rationality, my friend.

It does jive at all...

Every evidence showing DT awo was released by Gowon has bn tendered in ds thread (and previous threads) but d only evidence u have to show dt ojukwu released him was by words of mouth of ur father. Lolz

Lolz, d story with sources should be discountenanced for d story without a SINGLE source - according to u

Nwoke, d joke's on u

The simple question you and others should ask your selves, or try to answer, is how is it that Awolowo was in prison in Calabar, but the video shows Gowon releasing Awolowo in Lagos?

Nobody has been able to answer this simple question

Are you doubting the source? Yes Enahoro was released also and some other prisoners were released that were stated on the prints.

If you’re doubting the source I can give you the link to the source just that you will have to be a paid subscriber on the medium (NYTimes and The Guardian) to be able to view the news in detail but you can always view the headlines.

Do you need me to provide you the source for all the news I posted? I am generous coz my intention is to save you from the shackles of lie that Ojuku fed you guys and I’m also gonna sensitive millions of you igbos.

I’m tired of trying to lecture you guys even at something I thought you should know about.

Whether the prison is in Eastern or Southern region, it is under the command of the Central government. It’s a federal prison and they have the authority over it.

Ojuku was just a governor and He hasn’t taken command of Calabar prison just 5days after the kidnap/death of Ironsi to even have the audacity to do what you uninformed lots are saying he will do.

I should have quit this thread but I won’t give up until you have nothing left to say.

gidgiddy:


Interesting story. What nobody ever managed to tell me is how Gowon, who was in office for barely a week, and was not recognized as head of state in the Eastern Region, managed to release Awolowo who was in Calabar prison in the East?

Gowon never released Awolowo, he didn't even have the powers to do so at the time. Everyone knows it was Ojukwu who ordered Awolowo's release after the death of Ironsi

Are you aware that treason is a federal crime? Whether or not ojukwu recognised gowon, he still had the power to release HIS PRISONER. Mind you that the day Gowon truly lost power in the East was when biafra was declared. Before then, it was just tension and disagreements. In fact ojukwu couldn't have released Awolowo even if he wanted it.

It is record that I have debated this issue with you before on another thread...

Your party line then was that Gowon went to Calabar to release Awo from prison...

The twist I am seeing today is that Awo was flown to Gowon's office after he has released.

Ogneni, keep your website and subscription to yourself.

I am equipped with an analytical and forensic mind so stop deluding yourself that you can pull wool over my eyes.

Ojukwu never recognized Gowon as the C-in-C.

Does that make sense to you,?

Gowon was never in charge of Eastern Nigeria.

Maybe you will also revise Aburi Conference out of the bizarre history you are toiling to piece together....

It was ojukwu that ordered his realease before he started back_ stabing him, we know how he ended up

Your parents have really poisoned your minds. Tomorrow your children will grow up saying a president of Nigeria was once cloned. Honesty Nigeria needs to bring history into its curriculum and make it compulsory. I even used to believe that the igbos lost their life savings and received 20pounds compensation, only for someone to prove that that the whole thing was a hoax. None of the igbos on this forum could disprove him

Why did Ojukwu drag Gowon to Aburi while following your warped logic, he could have had him court-martialed and shot?

So you are now relying on a New York paper to tell you what happened in your own country? The simple question to ask how is it possible that Gowon was already releasing Awolowo that in prison in the East, less than one week after he came to power? The East did not recognise Gowon as head of state. Gowon simply had no powers to release Awo at that time.

Dont worry about Ojukwu and us Igbos, stop crying more than the bereaved

The guy gave you two sources and a video and yet you are still arguing. Don't you feel a bit silly doing this? So he should leave NYT and believe you? Do you have any source at all?

See brother there are still a lot of Igbo propaganda to debunk. That 20 pound policy was debunked by Aribisala then if I still remember and they couldn’t bring forth a proof to dispute his facts.

The Yorubas of the old chose to leave them alone coz our father pitied them for the casualties they suffered during the war. The Igbo man have been hiding under the victim mentality to project their propaganda.

Now Yorubas like me and the current youth will take no nonsense from the Igbos and we will make sure they don’t get the same privilege of silence our fathers accorded them.

If not that Ojuku is deranged, why should he expect food from his enemies in the first place? That is one of the reason they hated Awolowo and Ojuku used that to defend his loss in the war and used Awo as the fall guy.

If I was Gowon, I would have jailed Awolowo for aiding the enemy. Abi why did baba kept the eastern region allocation for the duration of the war? And why will he even bring the policy of £20 for our enemies in the first place.
