pongwa:
you wan fight another Biafra war? If not, STFU.

you will not need to shut up. You'll starve to d**th.

Ola9ja23:


This people would not fight without grabbing lands.

They had Lagos and other SW regions in mind that's why Yoruba besieged them at Ore and finished the cowards

People that went as far as Ore are not cowards, People that braved a blockade are not cowards, people that surrendered and still held their pride despite being given 20 pounds are not cowards. Try to stop this lousy response out of bitterness.

Ola9ja23:
He is not afraid of anyone.


He is not a coward

Anyone who is angry should go and attack Gowon

Just because igbos are known to be peaceful,that's why you have the guts to make this statement.


Everybody just wants to use the Igbos to shine, but God has always been on their side and they keep triumphing above all other tribes .


Has Gowon ever come out openly to chastise the Fulani herdsmen on rampage in plateau state a d other middle belt states.

Until je does the stated above, then we may say you are right that he is fearless.

Slytiger:

Ojukwu killed those children NOT Gowon. Gowon was ready to supply food via the land borders/crossing so that the relief can be checked for weapons, but Ojukwu said NO.

Ojukwu wanted air deliver since France was including weapons with the relief being flown into Biafria.
Ojukwu later on tried to use the starvation as war propaganda.

Your people know the truth and Ojukwu was rejected as a result when he tried to contest for presidency later on in the 2000s.

Dude this is war Why would Gowon use a land crossing when he had imposed a naval blockade which shows that if Ojukwu had allowed the land borders he will use that as an excuse to guage Ojukwu's military installations. Why was he shooting down Caritas and red cross planes? If Gowon was magnanimous in the war front, he would have allowed red cross airlift of food under supervision rather than land crossing.

Sometimes ,I just read their posts and laugh when they try to rewrite history like the one (spataoflagos) I just replied above.

No one is rewriting History and there was no land grabbing abeg

Why are they harassing Gowon? He spoke the truth about the civil war.
Gowon never wanted the war to break out and sought peaceful means of settlement,but Ojukwu was reckless,rash and too eager to pull Igbos out of Nigeria.
Well Gowon is still alive, healthy and bubbling in good health, while Ojukwu the war lord has long ago passed to the other Side.
And Gowon is older than Ojukwu.

Gen Yakubu Gowon said nothing Wrong

Nnamdi Kanu and Uwazuruike were insulting you and your women all day everyday to loud applause

You again, you will soon be picked by DSS for incitement

If you are Gen-Z you may not understood everything about the civil war cause your History class was taken from you. Go and read about your history before you comment just like that boy up there that knows nothing about what he said but is claiming Igbo.

You have no knowledge of history. You don't know the first thing about the events leading up to the war. You probably didn't know that thousands of igbos were massacred up north and eventually unabating in Lagos under the direction of Gowon. You also didn't know ojukwu did everything within his powers to avert the war which was why he released the northern soldiers in the East , but he Gowon ordered the massacre of Igbo soldiers up north and in the even civilians. Of course you don't know jack , but run along with the media narrative forgetting that whoever wins the war tells the story.
You wouldn't remember/know who reneged on the Aburi Accord. I am only engaging you because you alluded to being Igbo, otherwise I don't have time for worthless trolls

Look at the East today and compare our standard of living to the North, and you will know if we were actually the bad guys or North. Jos is almost becoming a desert because of the killings here and there. No wonder they all came out and supported Obi. A tribe that God has blessed, not even wars can destroy them

Roger3D:
The Aburi agreement was not binding before consultation with the Nigerian people. Gowon consulted and he was advised accordingly. Ojukwu thought he was smart by using his Oxford learning to bamboozle his peers into signing an agreement that would have been the end of Nigeria, until he met his match in others as learned as he was. The rest is history

If it was not binding why did he sign and agree to it and also shook hands with General Ankrah and said as brother officers that he would Abide by the agreement. The sad truth is that the Lagos advisers that mislead Gowon did it because they felt if Aburi was adopted they would lose the new found influence they have gotten. If the learned ones in Lagos were a match for Ojukwu why didn't they go to Aburi?

SpartaOfLagos:
Gowon is a stupid old man who shoulda been jailed for killing children of South East in the civil war

Gowon will surely rot in hell

You mean he would join Ojukwu who is currently rotting in Hell now?

This is a lie
Stop lying

Slytiger:

The war wasn't needless. If the ibos had taken only their igboland, they would have likely succeeded. But the encroachment into other minorities land made the war mandatory.

Another fool

He prosecuted the Biafra war and so? Does Nigeria he killed for have anything to be proud of other than hunger, killings and corruption. Let him prosecuted war against the bandits finishing his people in Plateau. It is only when it comes to south east region that Nigerian military use to have strength.

Claiming to be unapologetically Igbo, does not stop you from doing a proper research about the various events that led to the war, instead of putting a whole lot of blame on Ojukwu, and bros what has Gowon being alive and Ojukwu dead got to do with our situation in Nigeria at the moment. Death visits everyone at the time of it's choosing

May God continue to enrich your wisdom.

You were almost close to making sense but the foolishness that runs in your DNA did not allow you to make sense.
What has Ojukwu's death and Gowon being alive got to do with the conflict ?
Are you aware that Igbos are flourishing,while Gowon's people are being exterminated by Fulani bandits in today's Nigeria?
Like I said, you are very foolish

I really don't know why people tend to reverence Ojukwu that dragged an ethnic group in killing of millions due to his selfish ambition for not being made head of state after the death of Ironsi, that was the beginning of the whole issue. All other excuses for the war was all a smoke screen

Taah me chie onu gi dia, you are only using your usual taqiyah style here and nothing more.

perfectsusanoo:
Gowon thought fighting war and winning could be compared to this.
A military man indeed.
A country fighting war shows a flaw in its fundamental existence. Both parties were too militaristic,forceful in all aspect.
The truth is the 'biafrans' dont value independence or they would have gotten it. Eritrea,south sudan even lesotho.

True! if Biafran valued Independence, they would have succeeded in having their own Igboland as a country long ago but they wanted other minority states and Lagos as well which led to their downfall due to greed.

Roger3D:
Most countries with a constitution require the approval of their respective national assemblies before foreign agreements entered into by their executives can take force. In Nigeria's case back then, Gowon needed to have the consent of the SMC before the Aburi accord could be implemented. He did' not get that consent. Abi you wan make him be dictator?

Go and do more research about Nigerian history before you come online to talk ignorantly. The SMC, which was the 4 Regional military Governors of the time, and the military head of state, were all at Aburi, and they all signed the Aburi accord. But even if it had just been Gowon and Ojukwu at Aburi, once Gowon signed the agreement, the onus was on Gowon to fufil it. To come back and say that permission had to given before signing, has nothing to do with Ojukwu, it was still Gowons error

Sign an agreement and come back later to say you can't fufil because you need permission? That one is story for the birds
