You want to investigate his source of wealth,
Did you also investigate his source of poverty before he became rich?

Are you minding that poor man

Awo just an overhyped village champion, it's no wonder Zik was recognized world wide than Awo, they called Zik "Zik of Africa" cause the man was pretty much the reason Nigerian got her independence (Zik was too nationalistic for his own good, his one Nigeria ideologies more than anything else alienated him from his own people). But back to Awolowo, the man was quite an astute politician no doubt, as he did a lot for his people, but the same Awolowo is the reason why his people were slaves to the Northerners even when he had the political clout to have his dream of an independent Western region achieved, he preferred to hide behind Ojukwu and like the shameless opportunist he was play a two faced double agent role (support Ojukwus plan for secession with promises of following suit if the East seceded, only to back track again to Nigeria when offered a position in Gowons cabinet) ... While Ojukwu stood up to Gowon and the entire Northern Nigeria, Awolowo preferred to play second fiddle to Gowon... Who was young enough to be his son... while Northern troops occupied his western region, Awolowo was content to have his region under the control of Northerners, and after serving the Northern interest... he still never became president, but rather got dumped by the same Northerners he slaved up to... and then died rather mysteriously... today nobody has heard much of Awolowos children or even generation.

Hehehehe....I can see you are still ranting. All your rants and lamentations, will not change the fact that your Oxford-trained general led your people who were ill-prepared and ill-equipped into a war they could not win, which directly or indirectly caused the death of more than 3 million souls. may the souls of the departed rest in peace.

Now, you can resume your rants!

Of course you deflect once again from the question, shows you are just a hypocrite and a very unintelligent one at that. If your version of historical truth is what you will carry to your grave, then please don't pass that seed of ignorance to your children, rather let them read and have an unbiased perspective of their nations history.. Have a good life.

LaudableXX:
Guy, thank you so much for letting us know that 'dyslexic slowpoke,' is your middle name. Or is it your baptismal name? Whatever. And since you described yourself as 'daft or just plain insensitive,' how on earth can I disagree with you? It is such an apt description of yourself.

You claim Ojukwu consulted with the Eastern constituents. Re-ea-ally? Records show that those he claimed to have consulted with, were the Eastern Consultative Assembly - a committee said to have been used a ploy or an instrument, to serve as a cover for Ojukwu's ambitions, with the pretext of giving itself the appearance of legitimacy and authenticity, as the representative voice of the masses. Do your research. Elections were not held into that assembly, neither were those in it mandated to speak on behalf of their communities.

Now even if the Eastern Consultative Assembly asked Ojukwu to go to war, shouldn't he have explained the inherent dangers and untenable position, they were in, to them? Did he let them know how ill-prepared their entire region was, in terms of men and ammunition, when it came to prosecuting a war? A true leader would have done so.

Instead of ranting and raving on this thread, please pick up some good books (not propaganda materia, o!) and read about the issues that led to the war. Just try to educate yourself. War does NOT prove who is right and who is wrong - it only proves who is left.

Now I'm justified when I call called you a dyslexic... You are obviously without mincing reality devious with the truth, however spurious and hackneyed your theories are, but I'll overlook your ignorance and all the balderdash you just typed and ask you again...against the backdrop of one of the worst pogroms in black history been meted out to your people, and you were in the shoes of Ojukwu, what and what would you have done any differently? note that you just wanted the mandate of your people to chart the course of their own destiny, without declaring war on the rest of Nigeria... but somehow shots were fired on your people FIRST by your aggressors, so on a passive-aggressive indices, what then would you have done? Please answer the question as honestly and cognitively as you can, cause I hate people who just revision history to suit their their diabolical interest.

LaudableXX:
What rational decision did Ojukwu make? You call leading people into a war they could not win, and were not prepared for, a rational act? Guy, look up the meaning of the word 'rational' in the dictionary before you start opening your mouth wide.

And like I told you before; go back and do your research! Gowon was not imposed on anybody. The people who should have taken over power like Ogundipe had declined, and left the scene. You are ill-informed and too egotistic to seek knowledge, that is why your comments are so illogical. Your people were led into a war that claimed their lives by an Oxford-trained general who was too self-centred and myopic to see beyond his selfish interest to rule the SE.

As for Aburi, too many things have been said about it. Even if the Aburi accord was rejected, was that enough reason for your general to lead his people into a war that claimed 3 million souls of your people? Let us know, when you finish kissing Ojukwu's arse....

STFU you dyslexic deviant , so all the Igbos brutally massacred all over Nigeria wasn't a fair "rationale" for them to opt out? Are you so daft or just plain insensitive to have ignored the immediate causes for secession? And if you must know Ojukwu DID NOT UNILATERALLY declare Biafra, he consulted with the Eastern elders and consultative assembly in all constituents of authority at the time, and as a matter of principle got the mandate of the people to pull out of Nigeria, every Igbo and non-Igbo in the East at the time WANTED OUT. Ojukwu wasn't prepared for war and was only hyperbolic in his expressions and statements about the Biafran readiness for a armed conflict just to delay or avoid any war with the Nigerian side, because he never wanted war but had to fight back if attacked, he was a soldier first before anything so can you blame him ... Ojukwu wasn't the one that fired the first shots of war, Nigeria did in July 7, 1967 at the Biafran border towns of Garkem and Ogoja.

So don't come here and try "enlighten' me about the remote and immediate causes of war, with your outlandish claims that Ojukwu led his people to a war that your dumb ass self forgot to understand why he did so in the first place, if you were in Ojukwus shoes, what would you have done? Just wait and be sitting ducks for Nigerian soldiers to come to your own land and kill off your people and then be remembered as the coward general that stood by and watched his people been desecrated? I bet not.

And for the records, Brigadier Ogundipe wasn't the only officer senior in rank to Gowan, Ogundipe didn't just "leave the scenes" he was simply unsure of his safety in those uncertain moments after Ironsi was killed in the counter coup, and with other senior officers left to challenge the legitimacy of Gowons' undeserved rise to Supreme commander when he was just a Lieutenant Colonel at the time, only Ojukwu saw through the bullshit and stood up to Gowon who was the same rank as he (Ojukwu) was!! ...there were others like Brigadiers' Effiong, Imo, Colonel Adebayo and a host of other senior officers I can't remember, pick up a book and read.

[/quote][quote author=LaudableXX post=65840970]You have obviously not done your research. Google is your friend. Go back and read up on what transpired before police action was taken, and the civil war started.

So you are telling me Ojukwu was at fault for taking the most rational measure to protect his people after the pogrom meted out on Igbos and other Easterners all over Nigeria? in his capacity as military governor of the Eastern region, and considering the circumstances that brought Gowon(a officer who was rather imposed on the nation by the North ahead of more senior officers), where you expecting Ojukwu as a soldier and human being to just ignore the fact that his people were no longer wanted in Nigeria after all the massacres... And just kiss Gowon's a.s.s,remember the same Gowon reneged on the Aburi accord that gave more power to the regional governments with confederacy as the solution to the nation's friction. dude before you mitigate the essence of history... try use your brain and conscience, and put yourself in the place of Ojukwu... stop twisting history to suit your idiotic ego... Ojukwu wasn't perfect and had a part to play in the unfortunate Civil War that should have been avoided , but it will be hypocritical to claim Ojukwu caused the war, cause you and I would have probably done the same thing... You can't kill my people and expect us to sing One Nigeria... That's just unrealistic and obscenely idiotic.

Buhari the failure.

tunjiajayi:
Shoddy epistle!
It doesn't change the fact that the biafrans were defeated technically and otherwise. As you write to eulogise your hero, have it in mind, that what has happened before would happen again. As it is Nnamdi Kanu has done an ojukwu on you lot again!

Another brain dead afonja, you guys will never get knackered with anything about Biafra, very useless and insecure bunch of people.

Diademk07:
lol. Where is this Adeyinka videos btw? Osu and lies... Smh.

Like I stated earlier we've all left the peagent show for your Ibo prostitute. Last I checked, your Osu sisters represented Kano, Kaduna et al. We know what they do there, so? That's why they keep disgracing us whenever they represent us at the international level.

And who goes to you SE bush to seek for an igbotic wife? The ones being married to, are the Ibo refugees who have already imbibed our cultures in the Sw. They obviously don't want to return to the Ibo bush just like a non american would seek an american to marry sharply in order to avoid story that touches. And what do we get in return? A filthy environment as a result of their dirtiness. Alaba is case study. Spits.

That said, let me repeat again, may that hairy Okafor girl befall you and your lineage. Can I hear amen?

When you are done using up your data on your incoherent gibberish, better remember to save some money for psychiatric evaluation at yaba left, cause you are really one dyslexic individual.

Before then an Igbo governor elect will be in helm of affairs.

Eko oni baje

Diademk07:
Before foaming with saliva, show me the video. Osu and lies, very synonymous!

And yes, Ibo are the ugliest. No amount of cumcumber inserted into vagina at peagant show can change the fact. No wonder they disgrace us whenever they represent us at the international stage.The fact is the Yorubas and the Hausa wouldn't stoop low to partake in such debauchery acts and unclothedness, hence why we left it for Ibo prostitute and their cumcumber. May that known hairy ibo girl Okafor befall you. Yeye.

Guy Yoruba women are so dirty, even comedians take a swipe at your whole women as been filthy , as for the beauty pageant part, I can list at least 20 of it won by Igbo queens(not that it's relevant to this discourse), but I'm trying to prove a point that that hairy yam leg Igbo girl has a far better chance of besting the best looking Yoruba chick from your end, that's how hopeless your case is as a tribe, abeg leave matter, even honest Yoruba men know how pathetic their women are, and would in most cases risk the cultural odds by coming down East to pay for an Igbo bride price than risk settling with their punishments back home.

Diademk07:
Lies!
Just say your men are cowards! I have an Ibo tenant whose wife cheated on him with his younger bro yet he told us nothing except to beat her everyday. We didn't even know about her promiscuity until her children told us. The man is just too much of a coward to divorce her, he would rather beat her everyday which is what happen in an average Ibo home

Ibo women knows Ibo men are sissy and won't seek for divorce even if they fvck the whole village. The worst they would do is to call their glutton village elders to settle the case. It wasn't even long that a nairalander talked about his issue with his promiscous wife who's an anambran, telling us how the woman, her mother and bro made several lies against him just to disrupt the divorce case he filed in court. He said his wife told him that he can never divorce her despite all the fornication she had engaged in. That's how terrible your women are but I will advise whoever that wants to marry a Yoruba man should get it sunk into her head that we aint sissy like the Ibo men hence, she should curb her stupidity if she doesn't want to see hell.

Man to man no Yoruba can stand to be counted among Igbo men, you guys are just useless pu.ssy hopping deviants that have no respect for women, and lack the fundamentals of family structure. That's why lots of yoruba families are dysfunctional, child care is a joke a malnutrition is the order of the day on many Yoruba families cause the man who is supposed to provide is busy chasing anything in skirt. This are known facts mate, that's why even your own women call you demons. Igbo men are definitely the definition of all round men of high standards and value, we love to take care of our women even if it means busting our asses on multiple jobs, we are effeminate cowards like you bastards that only excel in shouting and making noise, never compare your menfolk to any Igbo man, cause one Igbo man is equal to 20 Yoruba weaklings any day, notice that I only replied to the few reasonable points I could pick out from your incorrigible jargons and badly structured grammar, it's clear you are just another dyslexic individual that needs medical attention.

Diademk07:
Lies! Adeyinka never stated anything of such. Everyone knows Ibo women are promiscuos. In fact, that's their archivement in Imo state as many hotels are built for their women to be kpansh inside. Lol.
And there's nothing classy about yam legged hair Ibo dwarf. The ones we get married to were those refugees living in SW. We're only helping their ministry over here however you won't see a Yoruba man leaving his SW region to go look for an igbotic lady for a wife in Ibo bush in the SE.

Where did this tout crawl out from? It's a known fact Yoruba women are the ugliest things ever, even a UFO alien will cringe in shock at the sight of your women, guy don't even go there. We all know the tribe that produces all the beauty pageants in Nigeria, your women save for maybe a few are a walking wonder of filth, ugliness, and utter classlessness, only Efik, Ibibio, Fulani, and maybe few Urhobo women stand tall with the Igbo queens when it comes to beauty and all round astute class.

And yes fool, your Adeyinka grandson definitely called Yoruba women sluts in one of his delirious rants, I'll find the video on YouTube for you.

nuoladee:
You are still not making sense. We are talking about the women and igbo women lead in promiscuity. Even edos can't trump their promiscuity level. Even Nnamdi Kanu the biafran hero called them prostitutes. Igbo women are promiscuous and oga being divorced doesn't mean a woman is frolicking with men. It is such thoughts as yours that keep women in destructive marriages. Go and sit down and advise your women to tone down on the promiscuity.

I'm making sense, you are the one definitely bereft of making sense, so because Nnamdi Kanu stated his opinion then that makes it fact? Didn't one of your Yoruba activist by name of Adeyinka Grandson (look him up) also call out Yoruba women for been skreps all over the UK? dude I'm not here to argue with you, there's a reason why more Yoruba men prefer to marry Igbo women, cause Igbo women are several classes above thier own women, and they can keep marriages comparatively better. You are entitled to your opinion and I to mine, but between us lies the irreducible truth, bye.

nuoladee:
Igbo women are the ones known to be highly promiscuous. Don't even try to turn the tables. It has been like that for years and won't change anytime soon. igbo men i agree may not be promiscuous but the women, their case is well known to all. Even the man you all revere i mean Kanu, called them prostitutes. Igbo women are promiscuous and no amount of lies you tell here will change that.

compared to Yoruba women they are saints, check the tribe with the highest divorce rates in Nigeria, there are more single Yoruba mothers than any other place in Nigeria, its almost an enigma. There is a reason why everyone calls out Yoruba men for been "demons", y'all got no integrity, just sleep around with anything in skirts.

nuoladee:
Ugly? Nigga we know where the uglies are domiciled pls.
Igbo girls and wowority Thank God for makeup.

Yoruba for where? Please Igbo women are the ones known for promiscuity by all and sundry.Even though i have never heard of her being promiscuous if it's true then its no surprise because igbo women are generally highly promiscuous.

Igbo women are keepers mate, that's why it almost sacrilegious in Igbo culture for a woman to even opt for a divorce let alone frolick around, cause the stigma she will face is unimaginable, a woman's honor is preened not just be her loyalty to her husband and family but to her husband's people as well in Igboland... That's why it's hard to see an Igbo man that doesn't take care of his wife and family cause the bride price is symbolic. Yoruba women on the other hand are free givers, since there's no semblance of culture and integrity in your culture, it's not rare to see your men sleep around and have babies all over the place, your women are not any different and divorce their husband's like say tomorrow no dey. The only Igbo women who are promiscuous in nature are the ones who somehow made it to Lagos and lost all their sense of civilization, thanks no less to the Yoruba factor they learn.

CSTR2:
She probably is a skrep.
I even thought she was going to be flavour's next baby mama given the way she was hopping around with him in bikinis.

Yeah heard stories about her promiscuity few years back... I don't even consider her Igbo cause her lifestyle and mannerisms are definitely Yoruba in orientation been a second generation Lagos girl , she can't even speak Igbo and is only Igbo by name (got some friends like her who are Igbo but do not even know the name of their villages back in the East). No true Igbo daughter bred in the East will behave like a skrep, it's not in our culture.

Chidinma strikes me as an olosho, I bet she will hop on the next celebrity soon... at 26 she should have a stable relationship or even married.

Igbo again, this people and greatness sef

Michael004:
Yoruba pick each
pocket in aba hehehehehe, give link to the news. I can't mention how many igbo pickpocket are in Lagos. And of all places. You be learner

I dey follow your lead now, since we are now claiming crimes based on hearsay, I might as well beat you to your own game, ode oshi

Michael004:
I mention Evans, I mention an igboman that stole his Yoruba neighbour's ATM to withdraw his money in the bank. I still mention another one that was caught stealing cable wire in Lagos. Now mention one Yoruba that commit crime in your region. Ofcouse, you can't dare me, you get the mind? . If them born you well, dare me na. Do you have anything to back up your daring. Soon we will read about another crime committed by igbo in southwest again. It won't be long. Imagine, igbomen are part of bacon group. Shiorrrr.

Like I said post sources of crimes committed by Igbos in the South west and stop boring me.
