The Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Achebe, revealed that he was to board the Abuja-Kaduna train that was attacked on Monday, March 28, but a phone call caused him to abort the journey.

The Attack left some of the passengers dead, others injured and many still unaccounted for.

Speaking on Saturday, April 2, when Igbo leaders under the aegis of Ahamefuna Socio-cultural organisation converged in Enugu, Igwe Achebe said he did not board the train because of a phone call inviting him for an emergency.

He said: "I was among the passengers meant to be on the train last Monday because I had a meeting I was supposed to be attending. I was already at the train station when I got a call over an emergency and I had to leave the station to attend to it."

The monarch decried the increasing insecurity situation in the country.

What if the train was attacked because they thought he was on-board? Yes, I am a conspiracy theorist and we are not always incorrect

Adolfhitler001:
baba no ever pray for civil war o at least not now because the north have the advantage,ready made fighters on ground,they don't even need the help of the military which still belong to them to ovarun the south,you can't fight people that have nothing to live for

All this your yarn na rubbish. So we for mellow in cowardice if say dem kill our Obi? Because we no want civil war? Funny! How many ready made fighters did we have during the first war the whole Nigeria was against us? Not to talk of now the Fulani is clearly the aggressor here, and most Nigerians against them.

The fulanis/Hausas are lucky nothing happened to Obi, otherwise the reprisals would have started in Onitsha. We no sabi differentiate between the two tribes when e don red.

The East is the reason why the herdsmen are having difficulties over running the entire south.

Chest beating as usual. The monkey you people call your supreme leader is languishing in DSS custody.

Mugu, I know even if bandits break into the house of Ooni of ife or Alafin of oyo and murder him you people will not lift a finger to fight your masters because cowardice is ingrained in your DNA and that of your forefathers.

We don’t need Kanu’s permission to massacre the fulanis had they killed Obi. We have done it before countlessly and would do it again if the need arises without minding the consequences.

The last thing you should expect from an Igbo man is cowardice in the face of injustice. Now run along idiot and go worship your masters up north

Jaapu:


When the mad terrorist in the east killed Gulak. Where was the reprisal. Reprisal on who self. Forget matter for Mathias.

First of all Gulak’s death was politically motivated which everyone knew, even the government of imo state confirmed it.

So you wan dey compare gulak with Obi of onitsha? A ceremonial king in the heart of Igbo land? You must be a foolish goat.

Whoever called Obi off the train is wiser than you cos they understand what the igbos will do to northerners in the East had Obi died in the train.

You obviously did not understand what you wrote.
He was speaking to the igbo leadera in enugu about the incident after it happened, it doesnt mean he had a meeting in enugu. Anyways, when you want to get loop holes in a story, this is usually the result

The country has become a failed State under Buhari.

May Buhari Nigeria happen to all the lineage of those who supported and foster this evil government on us.

Amen!! Amen!! and Amen!!

I was tempted to say Amen to your curse...
But I remembered my close associates and acquaintances who, in spite of my admonition to them against supporting the motherfucker,still went ahead headily... May God show them mercy, and I really do hope they've learned a bitter lesson!

I feel your pain dude.

Liked your comment... But then quickly un-liked it after a second thought!

insidelife22:
Let me categorically state that there are some people in our security agency who gives these boko bandits intel and aid their missions to get some of the cake when they are done.

Small secret you can't keep.
Anyway, happy Sunday!

What a shame that both you and the blind people who like your post all lack comprehension skills!

This is why I don't bother to engage in arguments on Nairaland because less than 1% here can comprehend most posts.

At no time did he say he was to board that train on his way to Enugu.

If you could read and understand it is stated clearly that he made this revelation while in Enugu for another meeting.

How difficult was that to understand.

Chaiii

He should be investigated by the DSS, he might have gotten a phone call from the master minders of the attack not to board the Train.

So the perpetrators/terrorist might be ESN disguised as fulanis.

I need a job in the DSS

The Venom was not a necessity. Peace be unto you.

tit:
(the people who plan the killing, call you not to enter)
