Trust me if Ojukwu had Awolowo shot, nothing would have happened. Your useless operation wetie was easily quelled by riot policemen and the army that was sent in later just did *mop up"on the acid carrying miscreants. Some top brass of officers and leaders like Ademulegun,Shodeinde and Akintola were taken out- wetin una do? grin. Abeg make we hear something! Brigadier Ogundipe that had his orders disobeyed by a Northern soldier of the junior rank and later fled to the UK summarized how weak you were as a people and region. Even that idiot Yorubahero or whatever he's called had the temerity to say Igbos would have been exterminated if Awolowo was killed, yeah right! the only region Igbos respected were the North csuse they were warriors, they got us back and I call that fair game even though we decimated more of them in the Biafran war, but Yoruba? Una no reach!

Then why not shoot tinubu now and see if nothing will happen to igbos loooool

Lol. Walahi if Ojuku has shot Awolowo, several thousands of Igbos would have been murdered in the western region. The Northern soldiers won’t be able to do anything against the mob coz they will even support it secretly.

Stop mentioning Akintola, he is not loved by the Yorubas and shouldn’t be mentioned ever in the league of Awolowo. The only thing standing of Akintola legacy is the LAUTECH naked after him. That’s the only saving grace of the Igbos that time coz Yorubas don’t even care about him.

Ademulegun was well loved by Yorubas
Shodeinde was even more loved
Awolowo had more clout that Akintola yes, but there's no way Akintola wasn't loved by a loyal session of the Yorubas, especially the Ibadan people.

If Ojukwu had Awo shot, patapata na only riot una for do small, maybe few Igbos would have been killed. But a much more prepared Igbo populace would have evened the score in Lagos and Ibadan cause we had more officers and men after the North. Don't get fooled by the fact that the North massacred Igbo officers and civilians as weakness, the North were even more scared of Igbo domination and another possible coup from the Igbos so they had to act fast and strike when Igbos were not prepared. And it didn't help that Ironsi was a buffoon who went about trying to pacify the aggrieved Northerners instead of rallying the Ibo officers and men to defend him for a possible counter-coup.

Do you know the men and officers who crushed your "operation wetie" were predominantly Igbos led by captain Nwobosi? I laugh in mandarin if you think you would have done anything short of make noise if Awo was shot.

Ojuku said more than this during the time preceding the war. He spoke of how he will exterminate Nigeria within 3 month and was shouting around in the media.

After the war, several millions of his people were butchered while he ran away leaving his people in languish and agony.

—Banjo that led the Biafran takeover of mid-west is a Yoruba.
—Benjamin the scorpion that command the murder of several of your soldiers barbarically is a Yoruba.
—The Biafran force surrendered to Obasanjo a Yoruba man.
—Awo is the intellectual that exterminated thousands of you with just a pen and his intellect in changing the currency.

Igbos will always shout, but the Yorubas know how to deal with them.

Ask about Oyo empire and the Ibadan coalition. Even when our ancestors are conquering lands, the Igbos are still in the bush climbing trees.

How I wish I can rewind time to 1966 and instruct Ojuku to shoot Awo so we can use you guys to count scores.

If I were in his shoes, I’ll just stop also coz that argument is no more an intellectual discourse but just a game of wishful thinking like you’re doing.

Call all your Igbo historical intellectuals, NO one will be able to bring any proof to support Ojuku released Awolowo. Not even one credible source whether local or international.

So continuing with the argument with you guys will be like wasting one time with a kindergarten level brain.

If Ojukwu had Awolowo shot, NOTHING would have happened! forget the noise. The West was easily the weakest region in Nigeria at the time, you had no negotiating power, no army of loyal officers and men, nobody of high reputation to call the shots, and worst of all your region was occupied by Northern troops. The worst case scenario would have been a massive civilian furore in the mold of the "operation wetie", and nothing more. There's a reason you couldn't do shIt unlike the North when some of your officers along with Akintola (who was just as important a figure as Awolowo) were killed in that coup.

Akintola was not an important figure, he was a traitor who had northern backing, hence he got shot and killed. And there WERE repercussions, you people still whine about the repercussions.

Nobody had the mind to shoot and kill Awolowo ever because they know damn well there would repercussions.

Stop mentioning politically backed Wetie. That’s strictly politics between Akintola backed Federal faction and Awolowo.

That is politics.

The Hausa have been massacring igbos right from time, they first started in 1945. No one fear the Igbos, a lot of them have been suyanized multiple times.

Check the history of massacre in Nigeria and you will see the North have murdered the igbos countless times while the igbos run cowardly back to the East.

Why don’t you guys retaliate against the North during the countercoup in the street of the core-North?

So you think the Igbos can retaliate against the Yorubas in the west if we want to murder you all in 1966? Which military? The one backed by the Hausas or what? You are saying rubbish.

I hate fantasies and this kind of discussion is just rubbish coz I want you to rise now and instruct the Igbos to murder Oni of Ife or Alaafin of Oyo today and see what will happen.

However the result of that will be countless Igbo in body bags that will be transported back to the East.

Awo is in the league of the Alaafin of Oyo in how honorable the Yorubas view him. Now imagine for a seconds that an Igbo shoot Alaafin and people in the East are flaunting the banner of his dead body?

You stood against Nigeria and suffered that much casualty? What’s the big deal?

That war is not war per say, it’s just genocide.

Infact thank God that the war was commanded by a Christian Gowon, a war where your enemies were giving you food is what you termed war? A war where they said no victor no vanquished just for peace sake is what you termed war?

Biafra war is just like trying to bring back a rebellious child and not a war you wage against your enemy.

Besides Biafra war that you lost, what war has the Igbo people ever waged even now or during the 1700s - present? The Igbos have been the tribe that suffered civilian massacre most in the history of Nigeria.

Yorubas have dealt with the Hausas multiple times in the SW but the Igbos are always scared such that whenever they are murdered in Kano, they will rather run and hide in the East without retaliation.

Lmfaooooooooooooo noise noise noise. Ojukwu was taken to hyperbole to delay the war as much as possible, that was why he exaggerated the fighting readiness of the East, and it worked considerably in delaying the Federal side from striking. No big deal, it's called psychological warfare.

Benjamin Adekunle killed more minorities in the COR (Calabar, Ogoja, Rivers) areas not Igbos. The crimes of his 3 Marine commandos were documented to be more prevalent against the Efiks, Ibibios, Annangs, Ogoni's etc. When he stepped foot into the core Igbo heartlands, he got disgraced and ousted from his command after suffering horrific losses in men and materials on Ibo areas like Owerri, Aba and Umuahia. Adekunle was overrated, Colonel Etuk who brilliantly defended his encircled men from a massacre in Owerri was a far better soldier.

Obasanjo got his ass handed to him in his first stint of battle as confirmed by Alabi- Isama a fellow Yoruba man, he only came at the best time when Biafrans were so starved to keep on fighting and simply lacked the will to keep the resistance going, OBJ had extreme respect for the tenacity of the Igbos. And that's why his tenure was very favorable to lots of Igbos.

Awo was no intellect, yes his "ingenious" starvation policy significantly weakened the Biafran resistance and led to the death of some millions... fair play to him grin. But any half-wit would have penned that policy especially when Nigeria wasn't losing on all fronts in the fighting. Ditto the change of currency, barely a masterclass, actually it was Anthony Enahoro who proposed the change of currency idea not Awolowo. At the end how did Awolowo political career end? OK maybe he didn't drink rat poison as some have unfairly claimed, but he got bleeped over by the same North that he did "boy boy" for, for years.

Your Oyo empire got served by the fulani, need I remind you that you lost a whole territory to small fulani bandits? I know the same Fulani sacked the old oyo empire. You lost to the Nupe and remained second class to them till date despite your bigger population. When we talk of real empires, your useless Oyo empire can never be counted. Even the Benin empire had a greater reach and influence than your Oyo nonsense. Where was your empire when the British easily conquered your people? Noise Noise Noise.

The Igbos had a civilization, you don't have to have an empire to be powerful you dunce. Igbos had the feared and respected Aro confederacy that fought the British for some bloody years, one of the fiercest guerilla resistance to the British might was fought by the Igbos (Google the Ekumeku resistance), a war that lasted for almost a decade.

We killed

Akintola
Shodeinde
Ademulegun
Crushed your Operation wetie and joined the Balewa government in sending Awolowo to prison in the East.

Now keep crying, that one concern you. But your region was the WEAKEST in Nigeria, only the North had the might to fight the East back after we killed their leaders. The same North that occupied your region till the end of the war.

KingJa:


The north had no heart to shoot and kill Abiola as much as a tyrant that Abacha was, he knew better.

And when Abiola died, Abacha died soon after and shortly after we back to civilian rule with a Yoruba president. You guys are getting delusional your lies have fired una brain finish what a pity.
You had no intelligence in Abacha's death. It's purely a Western thing.
