Why Ojukwu Denounced Decree 8 by AuschwitzPrefec: 2:45pm On Jul 29, 2023 |
This decree was passed by Gowon to steer Nigeria away from the Zikist Decree 34 passed by Ironsi. Decree 8 was meant to undo the harm known as Decree 34 aka Heebo by force Unity begging decree This decree called for decentralisation as was the case prior to the Heebo coup of Jan 15, 1966 that saw to the unity begging decree 34. But one good aspect of this coup was the creation of regional armies. Ojukwu flatly rejected this clause and any talk of returning Nigeria back to the Richardson constitutional arrangement. Like the commie bastard he was, Ojukwu preferred a centrist arrangement with a powerful central govt which controlled the military. When this decree was proposed by Gowon and supported by the northern , western and Midwestern military heads, only Ojukwu refused any talk of going back to pre Ironsi template. Ojukwu was however more angered by regional armies . So why are Ibos of today claiming Ojukwu wanted a return back to the original regional arrangement whereas he vehmently opposed the more autonomous Decree 8 ? They falsely claim that their position in Aburi dictated a return to federalism. This is a blatant big lie. Their position in Aburi was that Gowon return the carved out SS states of then old Rivers (modern day Rivers & Bayelsa) and old Cross River (modern day Akwa Ibom and Cross River) back to the eastern region. Note that the Zikist and Zionists in Enugu wanted Gowon to rescind the carving out of these non Ibo regions. Another particular reason why Ojukwu opposed Decree 8 was because the Midwest at the time was the least armed and was populated by Igboid soldeirs who supported Biafra. Any talk of granting seperate military autonomy to Midwest would have seen the Midwest as a natural barrier and buffer zone to their Zikist ambitions in reclaiming power and seizing Lagos. So when this decree came into effect, Ojukwu launched his infamous invasion of the Midwest and from there appointed a Biafran apologist Igboid officer to be it's military Governor. A few weeks later, fearing an inevitable counter invasion by Nigerian forces, Ojukwu will declare the Midwest an independent nation. The more you delve into the real history of the civil war , the more you see how the Zikist and Zionists in Ojukwu's war cabinet in Enugu remain villains and also the architects of all our present woes. These Zikist and Zionist elements are still well and alive in the form of the Obidient Marxists and IPOB Zionists. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

FacilitatorLekk: Of course nah. Decree 34 was drafted in Enugu and given to that Buffon to read . The so-called "unity decree" which only Ojukwu applauded back when it was announced by Ironsi. Then their liberation by force invasion and occupation of Midwest from they staged an invasion of the western region. Ibos are the biggest unity beggars till this day. 4 Likes |

AuschwitzPrefec: A lot of people like to talk nonsense just to decieve gullible Nigerians who dont know Nigerian history People talk about Decree 34, but no where in that decree did Ironsi tamper with the boundaries of the 4 Regions of the time, nor deny them full resource control. In other words, all 4 Regions existed with fiscal federalism during Ironsi's time When Gowon came in, he had a problem. More than 10 officers were senior to him, including Ojukwu. Gowon met with Ojukwu in Aburi Ghana and signed a 12 point agreement, one of which was that he would not change the 4 Regional structure of Nigeria unless all 4 Regional military Governors of the time unanimously agreed he should do so But what did Gowon do when the returned from Ghana? He promulgated Decree 14 of 1967 which abolished all 4 Regions Nigeria had, and replaced them with 12 new states, without consulting anybody Gowon immediately followed this up with Decree 15 which ended resource control, and put all resources in the hands of the federal government A well calculated move to make the North masters of Nigeria In retaliation for breaking the Aburi agreement, Ojukwu declared Biafra |

FacilitatorLekk:Ibos love to project their fault on others. Would an Ibo man truly live in Alaibo if Nigeria separates? They depend most on others for survival. Educated or non-educated, once an Ibo youth clocks 16 years of age, he or she is already dreaming of fleeing the SE region. Case study, check Mmesoma's jamb form's choice of university. Let's also not forget that another Ibo man (Gen Ironsi) also established decree 34. It was the decree that started the death of regionalism and birth of federalism. 5 Likes |

Like freshly hatched vipers, it is ingrained in their DNA to flee the nest or risk being eaten by their mother. Heebo land is a terrible place. This is why when the federal forces liberated non Igboid regions from Biafra, it was same Ibos that opened back channels to Gowon to liberate them from Ojukwu's tyranny and integrate them back into Nigeria. They won't tell you this sordid history on how it was Igbos that sabotaged their own Biafra after the SS regions were liberated from their rogue nation. Raskimonojendor: 3 Likes |

AuschwitzPrefec: Then that means you never read Decree 34. Decree 34 only brought the civil service of the Regions under one standard. However, the decree did not tamper with boundaries of the Regions nor deny them resource control, unlike Gowon The main ingredient of true federalism id resource control |

gidgiddy: Sharap! Why then did all three military heads of the other three regions oppose the decree ? Why were they kept in the dark in the first place ? We also know that the decree was drafted a day after the Ibo coup of Jan 15 which thus exposes Enugu Zikism as the real planners behind the coup. You guys should stop decieving yourselves.

I second that opinion... Whenever or wherever I hear an okoro cry out for victimization, I look twice before I make any decision and interestingly, what I have found is that most of the times, he is, actually, the aggressor and not the victim as he would want you to believe.
