Victor Banjo and Awolowo meet in Ore during the Civil war when Pa Awolowo told him to stop fighting on the side of Biafra and Victor Banjo refuse that he has promised Ojukwo that he will win on sink with him. Biafra soldiers were one side and Nigeria soldiers were at the other, Awolowo said Banjo tẹ́lẹ̀ mi, ìbọn òní ba hó (Meaning Banjo follow me bullet won't touch you) but Banjo refused,. After that meeting Ojukwu accused him of speaking Yoruba during the the meeting with Awolowo that he can not be trusted again and they accused him of planning to overthrow Ojukwu in Biafra they tied him to a drum and shoot him in Enugu He was the only Yoruba general that supported Biafra they paid him with Blood because he refused to attack Ibadan and lagos which is not part of the initial agreement Below is the picture of Victor Banjo and his family the Yoruba Man that supported Biafra and lead many of the battle's for them , but was killed his wife turned to widow, his children fatherless. ......shocking to me because Ojukwu understands Yoruba Laguage very well! 7 Likes 2 Shares

#History_Ville Victor Banjo and his family, 1962. Lieutenant-Colonel Victor Adebukunola Banjo, the first Nigerian Director of the Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Corps of the Nigerian Army, joined the Army in 1953 as Warrant Officer 52 and was the 16th Nigerian to be commissioned an officer. Banjo was killed by a firing squad of Biafran soldiers acting on Biafra's Head-of-State Chukwuemeka Ojukwu's orders on September 22, 1967. He was alleged to have staged a coup plot against Ojukwu. It took a second military trib.unal judge to sentence Banjo, because Ojukwu's first military judge stated that there were not enough evidence to convict Victor Banjo of coup charges. As he was being hit, Banjo yelled and screamed "I'm not dead yet!" with four more shots fired to ensure his death. He left behind his Sierra Leonean wife, Taiwo and four children. He was 37. His sister, 91-year-old Felicia Adetowun Ogunsheye is Nigeria's first female professor and consequently the first female professor of Library and Information Science in Nigeria. #History_Ville 4 Likes 2 Shares |

I was very happy when my grand mother told me about how Abiola and Babangida was fvcking Ojukwu wife back to back... The most painful part was when both of them knack her together in 1991 at a conference held in lagos. It was abiola that invited her over but unfortunately IBB saw her along the corridor of the hotel where Abiola lodged her, this was how.... The matter long... I no wan talk too much 2 Likes |

SisterAnn:jealous of what ? Can you list to me exactly pls. Yorubas don’t need you rather you need yorubas the most. You litter every of our cites Lagos,Ibadan,Abk,OTA,ORE like refugee selling okrika and fake chargers fan yogo etc,so why should we be jealous of an economic migrant. ZIK was jealous of SW progress,he neglected his backward region in ENUGU to contest for SW regional leader in IBADAN,no be stupidity be that? ZIK and AWO had issue for trying to install Kenneth dike in Old Premier university Ibadan(UI) not until his ass was kicked back to the east. No be stupid jealousy be that? Yorubas does not give a FK about omo ibo. 3 Likes |
