lol .This letter just confirms what everybody knows that If Britain had not intervened and it was only Hausa and Yoruba together, the war would have been a walk over for igbos within a few months

Joker, keep deceiving yourself, the letter shows nothing....you know how many countries stands with Biafra??

Nigeria was lenient on Biafra,they should have wiped them off the face of the earth.....

AyeMoJuba:


Why don't you go and ask Ojukwu why he attacked Yorubaland and was coming to take over Lagos...they kept warning him to go back, he sturbbornly refused, he had already took over Okitipupa in Ondo State and was already attacking Ore when Yorubas organised and chased them back into Enugu and Owerri...that was when Ojukwu now dressed as a woman and escaped to Ivory coast.

Assuming he just declared Biafra and stayed within their territory, Yorubas wouldn't have joined the war.

The same mistake they made in the last declaration of Biafra, is the same they are already planning to make again...they are already including Edo as part of Biafra...It'll NEVER be allowed.

They will fail again and this time, there shall be no mercy even for their unborn offsprings.

I'm sorry but sometimes I just can't stand all of these stupid comments, why is it so hard to get your facts right before coming at someone? This is the same thing that @GeneralPula did by wishing for the extermination of over 40 million people — just that comment is about to change his life.

But I digress, was Lagos not the capital of Nigeria at that time? Gowon declared war first and that's a fact, why is nobody talking about the fact that Nigeria led by Gowon broke the Aburi Accord? Why is it so hard for all of you to think logically?

And by the way, which Igbo people want Lagos? Because my mom is Igbo but she has never told me her people are planning to take over Lagos, so why the f*cking generalization ffs?!

It's you Africans that justify the starvation of Biafran kids, and you expect mixed kids to even want anything to do with y'all — y'all are simply barbarians.

That last paragraph got @GeneralPula in trouble, are you sure you wanna do this? Let me take a screenshot while waiting for another blasphemous comment.

if they could they would have done that but lack the capability considering the deep hatred in the hearts for the highly successful biafrans because they lack that capability to win and the day Effiong surrendered they celebrated like people who their lives are worthless without the Biafrans

Except a person doesn’t know anything history. Civil war was a clear genocide by Britain against the people of Biafra for seeking right to self determination .This letter just confirms what everybody knows that If Britain had not intervened and it was only Hausa and Yoruba together, the war would have been a walk over for igbos within a few months


Shout up, that's just a bit of lesson to you bastard, next time never you encroach other people territory.

they made Gowon refuse to honor the aburi accord. Azikiwe had no political post when al these was happening
So Gowon was ruling in the 1950's to early 60's?
