GofuckYourself: Yes ojukwu starved those people. He should have planned enough to know the possible outcomes of the war. He should have gathered enough international support before starting a war. He should have gathered enough resources to fight the war He should have made enough provision for his people before going to war He should have started defensive which was more efficient than wasting resources attacking He should not have bragged about his capabilities when he's not capable Natural response to weaken Biafra was to blockade it, it's as natural as breathing and if ojukwu tells us he didn't see that coming then he's either a drool or a devil. 7 Likes 1 Share |

GofuckYourself: That's the unbiased rendition of events that took place in that war dude. Ojukwu wanted the Biafran state to remain at any cost, so much so that he was willing to sacrifice as many igbos as necessary. He realized early on that images of starving and emaciated Biafran kids could be a very powerful propaganda tool, and he maximized it to the fullest, in the hopes that it would shame the Nigerian side into pariah status in the eyes of the world, and hopefully lead to an outcome that would favour the Biafrans. Unfortunately, that strategy failed. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Aditkd: That is why your governors, politicians, senators, house of rep took their hands off anything Igbos or anything that will bring civil war. Because they experience it and were affected in one way or the other. 7 Likes 1 Share |

AmbaliJ:What we still refuse to realize in Africa is that these whites or whatever we like to call them don't give a rat shit about Africa as long as they make profit off the continent. They would not respond to Biafra dilemma cos they don't see it putting anything in their pockets |

AmbaliJ: What a lie. History has it that the supply of food to nndigbo from Nigeria was blocked. How then did food enter for ojukwu to reject? Sometimes, the uselessness of Nigeria tends to have a mental effect of those who believe in the country. Don't you think? How can ojukwu starve the people he was fighting for? 2 Likes |

tsdarkside: Don't mind them. If you tell them now. They'll think you're fighting with them I always shake head when they talk about Ilorin. They didn't know Ilorin was an outpost of Oyo empire and not a cultural town initially. I don't expect them to know the meaning of outpost in a war since they don't have experience in it before. Benin people, British, americans, France and Germany would understand the meaning of out post town. 1 Like |

lanetrips: people and countries to held responsible were britain,france,israel,sweden,germany,ojukwu,gowon,ifejuna,effiong.these men failed to resolve their differences amicably due to selfishness,ego and pride but preferred to sacrifice the lives of innocent women and women for worthless venture. war is an state where a narcissitic leader lead gullible masses to fight for him inorder to fulfill his selfish goal and aspiration. 1 Like |
