Did Awo Really Believe That The North Fought The Civil War For Nigerian Unity? by Uchek(m): 7:19pm On Nov 28, 2011
In principle everyone that fought for Nigeria were patriotic and everyone that fought against Nigeria were anti-patriots.

So Gowon, Murtala and all the Northern military elites were patriots.

Off all the people that fought for Nigeria, Awo was the most intelligent, smartest and abreast with the Nigeria history.

But am curious, did Awo "really, really" believe that Gowon and his northern brothers fought for one Nigeria where justice, equity and merit will be enthroned and were every region and tribe will be the driver of their collective destiny?

Did he "really, really" believe that the North shared his ideals and beliefs for Nigeria?

I am "really really" curious.
