Like i said, gowon is a clown.

I am sure he did not order the genocide but he knew about the planning. He should have done something to stop it.

Yes, he was a clown

The youngest Nigerian military Head of State, but he supervised the genocide of the Nigerian state against the East. Yet Gowon and TY Danjuma are not confessing their atrocities in the events of 1966 that have landed Nigeria where it is today.

Thank God they are living to see Fulani massacre of their own people too.

That is why Ojukwu is now rotten in hell for being responsible for the deaths of over 2 million Children and women before running away to Abidjan with his family during the senseless civil war
Didn't your people foolishly die in that senseless war parasites like you paid the price for and still paying today.

Does that stop the killings in South West and North.

When your biafra soldeirs went about killing leaders of other regions except your region, you expected the northerners to path on your back for a job well done? Gowon is a big clown definitely but you should accept responsibility for the result of your actions.

We will do it again and again when parasites like your kind kept attaching to what is different from you. No price is bigger than the Land we hold today without selling to others while we've purchased even your grandma gravee.

Legendary British puppet, the guy had all it takes to rebuild Nigeria then, to stop that event of 1966 from escalating into war, but under him Nigeria's armed forces were killing innocent people and after that fought that war not for Nigeria's future but to rather defend British interest who spent heavily to finance the war. Guyman will only be a legend to those who never knew Nigeria's history well, he was one of the reason why Britain stole a lot from us after independence.

secondary School pikin, wetin you know? When men are talking boys are supposed to keep quiet and learn, he planted the foundation for the mass killings of his people today. The British jointly used them and fulanis to fight the east in order to defend British interest, and after that, his people has been the most endangered specie of humans in Nigeria for over 30 years now.

This Man That Slaughted Present Day IPOB Fathers and Grandfathers , When Greedy Col. Ojukwu Decided to Fight a Senseless War With The Nigeria Military, Senseless Ojukwu is Late And Gowon is Still Kicking,
HBD Gen GOWON
you and the teacher that taught you history need a place in psychiatric hospital. If gowon had been a decisive and mature leader, Nigeria would not have fought that war at all. Today, the history of that war is not written in school curriculum to be taught to younger ones in school, parents only and elderly ones only tell younger generations what they want them to know about that episode, except for those who can go extra mile to read independently, you will all come to forum like this to make blind arguments.

You cannot suppress the Igbo in you.

You see why those that want Nigeria to progress have to avoid giving critical roles to those who only love Nigeria when they are the ones ruling.

See example below.

Very cunning patriots.
They have even shown the rest of the tribe they rule ... they are too toxic ... if they can't stay in their own region where they speak same language

Spare us your fake love, you cared about the asaba people but you blew up the bridge leaving them at the mercy of those blood thirsty northern soldiers whom you just eliminated their spiritual and political leaders? Why didnt you stay back to defend them like you defend your own?

Research? No. If you are student of history you should know that Nzeogu is from Delta state. Not killing him is what the north held as a reason for the northern coup in 1966. You are saying fake love when your fathers and grand fathers are very persons that massacre primary school pupils in a broad daylight. Shame on you!
Who will ever think that in a crisis that has not become a war that your parents will descend on primary school pupils that are still in age of 5 - 11 years? Even in wars civilians zones are untouchable, not to talk of primary school. Ojukwu was still waiting for Gowon to implement the agreement reached in Aburi known as Aburi Accord, only for him to run Asaba over. Blowing the bridge after rescued many citizens of Asaba was inevitable for safety of women and children of Biafran extension. Since your parents were after women and children.
Don't say northern soldiers, Yuroba soldiers champion by Obasnjo were full involved. Lagos Federal capital witnessed reaping of unborn babies of Biafran extension from their mother's stomach! People in air and motor that wanted to run to East were killed in broad daylight... Just don't mentioned that war again.
You should ask yourself why is it taught at schools? Atrocities done to the people of Biafra! If you are a human being should ask yourself why a crisis that arouse within the army degenerated to killing of citizens even when they have taken their revenge? Why Gowon refused to pay Biafran even when he can't secure their life in Lagos federal capital and other part of the country? Why did he go back on agreed Aburi Accord? What happened to the corpse of a president Aguiyi Ironsi?
