OLASODE2K: It is a pity this faruk is, unfortunately, as ignorant as every other mallam on the street. Everybody who is able to take his/her time to read through the several literatures on the biafran war knows that the whole part of the present day niger delta, which bayelsa is part of, was captured by the famous third marine division under Col Benjamen Maja Adekunle. I don’t know if the black scorpion has changed his state of origin from Ogbomosho [oyo state] to maybe kano just as faruk is trying to portray. Secondly, it is also a known fact that without the Yoruba joining the northerners to ensure a swift victory, it is quite likely the ibos would have defeated the north then because they werent doing so bad in the war against the north until the arrival of the third division which worsen their chances. It is quite interesting that the third division was heavily composed of Yoruba students, artisans, prisoners etc who were given a three-week crash course and thrown into battle six months after the other two hausa-led and populated divisions were fighting hard to find their footing in the war. The northerners were loosing to the ibos as a direct result of massive lack of discipline, use of massed infantry phalanx attacks against ibo machine guns, lack of coordination and poor leadership. They were also fighting a modern war with Uthman Dan Fodio tactics and strategy. The is that the Adekunle division was the youngest and with the highest density of ill trained, poorly experienced yoruba troops but they were willing to learn the hard way on the battlefield. Despite all these frightening limitations, they were able to capture all their assigned sector in record time while the other two hausa led divisions were fighting for survival from extinctions and still went to capture umuahia, owerri and aba which was initially supposed to be captured by the first division under Col Shuwa which was by far was made up of the best trained and most experienced soldiers hausa soldiers of the prewar professional soldiers.Why spam the entire forums with these lies and half-truths? ![]() |
Katsumoto: You are old enough to know that victory in war goes to commanders. Who did Biafra surrender to and who was responsible for the final offensive that ended the war? ObasanjoDid u say that Adekunle was replaced because he was too popular with victories? Aren't u tired of peddling lies?Adekunle was replaced because he was disgraced by Colonel Joe 'Hannibal' Achuzia. He was thrown out of Owerri and sustained a heavy casualty in the process. Achuzia was threatening to reverse all Adekunle's earlier gains. Pls read Obasanjo's account of the situation report at the military camp at the time he took over in "My Command". |
Katsumoto: Only Biafrans are taking Fani-Kayode seriously because you want to feed into his lies.lol, you must have some mental issues. So you are still proud to post this photo after you disgraced yourself in the other thread with it? That's why I remarked that you have no clear-cut line between decency and indecency. You can stoop so low to support your ridiculous assertion. We have debated the issue of the release of Awolowo in the other thread. Ojukwu boldly stated that he released Awolowo from Calabar prison in an interview conducted few years before his death. Provide your evidence that Gowon released Awolowo from prison deep into enemies territory? You provided your doctored interview with Awolowo. Now you want to flog your Goebbelian lies again on casual observers, hoping that it sticks. I wont allow u. |
Katsumoto: So whats all this talk about starvation about?Could Nigeria feed itself even up to this day? Nigeria relies on the importation of most food items to feed its populace. Did Biafra request for food aid from Nigeria? Again, provide an evidence that Ojukwu charges landing fee from aid agencies. Pls supply us with the account(s) from the aid agencies involved. Don't waste your time with your army of hack writers. Can u also support your assertion with a credible source that Biafra is using aid supplies as a cover to smuggle arms? |
Katsumoto: Just observe at how all the Biafrans shamelessly ignored the issue of Ojukwu charging landing fees to aid agencies who were bringing in free food to feed starving Biafrans.[size=12pt][/size]Pls provide the evidence from the Aid agencies involved. I wont accept 2nd or 3rd person's account |
Katsumoto: Since it is obvious that you Biafrans know nothing about the Ilorin saga but prefer to run your mouths for mischievious reasons, I will educate you. Even though you are unlikely to accept it. ![]() Check my signature. I wont take your account till I research on the topic. You so are fond of revisionism that I take your account with caution |
Rhino.5dm:Who wrote the letter? I think u deserves brain transplant. |
Katsumoto: Starvation is not an issue in war because your enemy is not expected to have a feeding policy for you. Once you fcu.king run out of food, you are expected to surrender. Laying siege is an old tried and tested war strategy. If you don't know that, then go and educate yourself.Mr. Man! Is starvation an acceptable tactics of war? Did Biafra ask for food aid from Nigeria? |
Rhino.5dm: Rhino.5dm:Seems u are brain-damaged |
Katsumoto: Please give us a detailed account; we are waiting. Don't disappoint please, we are begging.Pls read my comment again Mr. Comprehension |
Katsumoto: Do you have a problem with reading? Is reading your taboo?Mr. Comprehension, can u provide an evidence from the agency involved? I can't accept 2nd or 3rd person account. |
Katsumoto: I have asked severally and I will do so again.C'mon shut up! Ilorin was conquered by the fulanis. Afonja invited fulanis to help him prosecute an internal power tussle. Afonja and his fulani backers emerged victorious. Fulanis later assasinated the Yoruba ruler in a coup and replaced him with an emir. Forced his subjects to convert to Islam. It's just that I'm not interested in that part of history. If not I would have given u a detailed account of what transpired from the historians. Seems like u argue for pleasure. |
Katsumoto: Very typical; blame others but not yourselves. No one has any business fighting a war if it can't feed itself. Your leaders are to blame for the deaths. Ojukwu is responsible for the deaths.So starvation of civilians is now an acceptable way to prosecute war? My dear, starvation is a war crime and you should be ashamed that your hero's name is associated with this ugly practice. Only war criminals consider starvation of civilians as legitimate instrument of war. BTW, did Biafra request for food aid from Nigeria? |
Katsumoto: Deal with the issueYou've started to inundate us with your lies again. Ojukwu's letter to Banjo. . .Busted as forgery. Ojukwu's letter to Awolowo. . . Busted as forgery. Yoruba enlisted to fight against the Igbos after the midwest invsion. . . Busted as lie. Now, Ojukwu charged landing fees to aid agencies. How long will u continue to disturb our eardrums with your cacophony of lies? Pls can u name the aid agency involved and when it happens? Don't waste your time with the works of hack writers. |
Katsumoto: It has been alleged that 3 million Igbos died during the war. Most of those that died, did so from starvation. How could 3 million die from starvation? Were the leaders so wicked that they couldn’t surrender when they couldn't feed their citizens? Yet Igbos would blame everyone but themselves for these unnecessary deaths.So what point are u trying to make with these your incoherent comments? How many Yorubas escaped to exile during June 12 saga? Do u know that many of them dressed like cocoa farmers to cross the border to Benin republic? Even the acclaimed winner couldn't stay back and fight for his mandate. Who should be blamed for the starvation? Ojukwu or Gowon or Awolowo? When you implements coldblooded policy like that, u should know that civilians will be hard-hit. Fighters only surrenders when u defeats their will to fight. Not when u targets their civilians. Did Stalin surrender in the face of mass starvation of his subjects? No! I'm amazed that you blames Ojukwu for Gowon-Awolowo coldblooded policies during the war. You should be ashamed of it to say the least. |
OLASODE2K: fani kayode is very right. it baffles us as yorubas when a simpleton wants to claim our glory less than 50yrs when we saved the north from imminent defeat. wonders shall never end. i wont be surprised if faruk claims that general olusegun obasanjo is from maiduguri. such is the level of their ignorance. It is a pity this faruk is, unfortunately, as ignorant as every other mallam on the street. Everybody who is able to take his/her time to read through the several literatures on the biafran war knows that the whole part of the present day niger delta, which bayelsa is part of, was captured by the famous third marine division under Col Benjamen Maja Adekunle. I don’t know if the black scorpion has changed his state of origin from Ogbomosho [oyo state] to maybe kano just as faruk is trying to portray. Secondly, it is also a known fact that without the Yoruba joining the northerners to ensure a swift victory, it is quite likely the ibos would have defeated the north then because they werent doing so bad in the war against the north until the arrival of the third division which worsen their chances. It is quite interesting that the third division was heavily composed of Yoruba students, artisans, prisoners etc who were given a three-week crash course and thrown into battle six months after the other two hausa-led and populated divisions were fighting hard to find their footing in the war. The northerners were loosing to the ibos as a direct result of massive lack of discipline, use of massed infantry phalanx attacks against ibo machine guns, lack of coordination and poor leadership. They were also fighting a modern war with Uthman Dan Fodio tactics and strategy. The truth is that the Adekunle division was the youngest and with the highest density of ill trained, poorly experienced yoruba troops but they were willing to learn the hard way on the battlefield.

But don't expect me to give u a pass next time if you churn out these of lies and half-truths. |
afam4eva: @Mr.chippychappyFixed ![]() |
Katsumoto: I see where you are going.lol, you are a very funny chap with a funny debating style. It's better u lay credence to your assertion that Biafran troops will be surrounded at Ibadan. You must tell me the size of the Biafran invading forces before we will tackle your careless assertion that they will be surrounded at Ibadan. You can't just be throwing careless assertions and expect no challenge. |
Katsumoto: In January 1966, there were approximately 10,500 men in the Nigerian armed forces. Out of the 10,500, the Yoruba and contributed a mere 6% approx, while the North produced 54% and Igbo (including mid-western) produced 30%.Thank you! Now the debate can progress faster. So what's troop strength of the Biafran forces that invaded the midwest? |
Katsumoto: You think Biafra had more men and armsPls answer my question. You made the assertion. Then I asked u a question based on your assertion. Why are u this chameleonic? ![]() |
^ |
Katsumoto: Even in the early days of the war, Biafra was outgunned and outmanned. Ojukwu could only spare 5000 to 'take' Lagos. Banjo realised the folly of his task and sought the easy way out for the aforementioned reason and because he was Yoruba and knew the implication of marching on Yoruba soil.Pls can u tell us the strength of the Nigerian armed forces prior to and during the midwest invasion? I mean the number of men carrying arms. Stop spewing rubbish here. |
Abagworo: I'm happy that a little truth has been revealed in the past few weeks. Since I started reading about the war, I often wondered why Biafran forces allegedly invaded the Mid-West and West but these recent revelations proves that Biafra never invaded the Midwest but rather a faction of Nigerian army led by a Yorubaman and Igbo foot soldiers wanted to topple the Government and end the massacre of people across the country. Obasanjo did wrong by betraying them.Yes! Whenever we take some positions in these debates, you Igbo youths should know that we are not crazy. We try to educate you guys at times, but it seems like Yoruba propaganda in you has gone far. I wont blame you cos I was once like you. I thank God that u are hearing the truth from the non-Igbo actors in the civil war. Pls try to read books from Northern authors to get a clearer perspective on what transpired before, during and after the civil war. Don't base your primary source of information on internet articles by Yoruba writers or Yoruba-leaning writers alone. |
Katsumoto: You are a big fool; Northerners required a one mile corridor to the seaStop masking the truth my dear. In the events leading to the war, Awolowo sent a delegation to meet Gowon. The delegates demanded that northerners pull their forces out of Oduduwa territory. The northerners responded by saying that they will withdraw their forces back to Offa(where they recognised as the boundary between the north and the west). They also demanded for one mile corridor to the sea. Awolowo and his crew chickened out in the face of this northern intimidation. This is a fact. You can't twist it. Northern troops having control of the capital and the west is immaterial in this discussion. |
Katsumoto: Just look at this dunce's tactics. You challenged me on some phantom threads and I ignored you. Why not challenge me now bloody mofo? Let me guess, you don't have time today or you need to consult the library in your grandmother's village like you stated in the other thread where you claimed that NCNC won the 1951 election in the west?You've used this tactics on me before. You are well aware that it never worked. Whenever u are challenged, you'll resort to condescending languages or personal attacks or bragging of mastery of English comprehension. But you wont distract me. Mr. Katsumoto, SHOW US EVIDENCE THAT AWOLOWO OFFERED ZIK THE TOP JOB IN A COALITION GOVERNMENT AND ZIK REFUSED. |
Katsumoto: The problem with some Igbo sons is that they believe they are smarter than others. Zik reneged on several agreements with Awo pre-independence, Zik was part of the government that jailed Awo, yet Awo should have supported Biafra.Shattap there! I'm amazed that u continues to repeat this your Goebbelian lies. I've challenged u in one of the threads to provide evidence of your lies. But you conveniently ignored me |
Katsumoto: Can you read at all? Did you miss my attack on Fani-kayode? Like a dunce, you jump with both feet and run into an uppercut.Stop decieving yourself my dear. Characters like you has no clear-cut line between decency and indecency |
Obiagu1: I hope you challenge Fani Kayode and not us.Fani-Kayode = Katsumoto Can't u notice the pattern? See how he suddenly appeared from the blues. |
This Fani-Kayode is a God-forsaken revisionist. I suspect that he is a nairalander with Katsumoto handle. Cos both of them regurgitates the same bullshyt |
CyberG: Stop talking up a BIG game when you are the one who will betray the entire South in a heartbeat with your tribalism! No doubt, in a real war situation involving the northern hausa/fulani (and any collaborators) and an army of the southern parts of Nigeria, they will surely get crushed! Do I want millions of Nigerian people (10 M) or more to be killed? NEVER! But the divide and conquer methods have worked for so long because of people like you who use tribalism to drive a wedge between peoples you are now calling for them to unite under a single flag to fight a war!When will u learn to face the message instead of attacking the messenger? It's because of small-minded folks like you that north walks with so much swagger in the south today. When will u learn to look at the big picture? Finally, why can't u sound intelligent for once? |

Now you want to flog your Goebbelian lies again on casual observers, hoping that it sticks. I wont allow u.
?? What have I been doing since I started posting on this thread? You mean none of the numerous posts I made dealt with the issue?
