[s]I hope you are happy now?

Hatred will not help you heal. I get it that it can be though to cope with the reality of defeat as a group of people, but why should you let it affect the quality of your life and that of your relationship with other Tribes...who are just people.

The simple fact of the matter is that Biafra was defeated. It is another fact that Ojukwu FLED.

Even Ojukwu's Father was against you guys fighting Nigeria, the Man died of heartbreak over the matter.

Bros, let me tell you one simple truth about the yorubas, a truth that once you know it, you will not have any problem with them.

Yorubas will never support a cause that will see them on the losing side. NEVER.

It is simple, Yoruba people dont chest beat all over the place, claiming they are Brave, They simply study the situation dispassionately, and follow the Logical choice.

There is a very very very very thing line between Bravery and Outright Idiocy.

It was outrightly idiotic for the East to Fight a Combination of The North and the west at the same time...in a Direct war. You guys should have followed the guerilla insurgency route, which should have led to biafra at the end of the day.

Your cause was the right cause, but the way in which you fought for the cause was not stategic. It showed that as a group , you guys do not have any history or knowledge of war, assuming you did, you would have fought like the Yorubas.

What will the Yorubas have done?

Ask me to answer that.

But know this, no amount of chest beating, or revisionary writing will erase the fact that Biafra was Defeated, whether through attrition or Starvation, and it will be really really naive of you to think that Warfare should be fought on fair terms. If You think so, that confirms that you guys dont know anything about war. Again, you should ask the Yoruba[/s].
Yes I am happy that Biafra was defeated under the weight of Great Britain & USSR, I am indeed happy. This is history and I am not here to rewrite it. grin grin grin

We lost but more Nigerian soldiers died on the battle field than Biafran solders armed with bolt action rifles, lol cheesy cheesy

I hope you are also happy that female Dahomey warriors sacked yorubas from their villages such that they crowded themselves as refugees in Abeokuta. grin grin grin grin

I hope you are also happy that fulani annexed Ilorin and installed an emir till tomorrow. grin grin grin

I don't have anything to ask a tribe whose soldiers were overrun by women, lol grin grin grin cheesy

No amount of chest beating or revisionism will change the fact that yoruba warriors were overrun by dahomey women and that Ilorin has been annexed by fulani. cool

Even brefraud strike team was led by a Yoruba man before ojuku had him foolishly executed and lost the war and ran like a pvssy to Abidjan grin

For the record, we lost Ilorin in a fair fight and not blame anyone else for our failure.. Plus we won so many wars also unlike you cowards .. And it doesn't mean the state belongs to Hausa and haffez or aminat is a Muslim name not Fulani name you ignorant beerfraudian.. Just like you bear Jude or peter.

Anyhoo, I have job to do.. Not gonna be responding to your stupidity for now.
Banjo was a traitor who conspired to prevent the advancing Biafran army from enteriing Lagos.

he gave away several kilometers of captured land to Nigeria without a fight. i read somewhere where Biafran soldiers were deceived at Ore. cheesy cheesy

Which battle did adekunle fight abeg? He was hovering around the outskirts of Biafra shooting women & children while Etuk who was the real man led the men into battle. wink wink

For your info, Biafrans killed about 2/3 of the 3rd marine commando before operation OAU could even commence. grin grin grin

Adekunle even radio lagos and called for reenforcement before he would be wiped out.

It was starvation that eventually won the war for Nigeria, just imagine, lol. grin grin

BTW, see the link to where female warriors sacked yoruba ancestors from their lands and they crowded themselves as refugees fleeing from women. grin grin grin grin

Lmao, it was Great Britan & USSR that defeated Biafra and not Nigeria. Only an eediot would lose the war with such backing so nothing special. Despite this Nigeria military suffered heavier casualties than Biafran soldiers whose standard riffle was the bolt action riffle.

Pangea:
Una too like wahala sha!

But on a serious note,
The award for the most cowardly general of the 21st century goes to GEN. OJUKWU!
You cant preach to your people to sacrifice themselves and when it is your own turn, you skedaddle!
That is cowardice with capital C!
Even Adolph Hitler with the same total sacrifice mantra ended his own life by taking cyanide and shooting himself in the head at the same time.

No matter the circumstances, no matter the reason for the war,
You can't just to tell your people to continue the fight to the last man, to the last bullet and when you now became the last man,
You just board a plane and disappear to enjoy your loot!
That's sheer wickedness,
In fact it's witchcraft!
Adolf Hitler killed himself because there was no where to run to after he had finished fighting against the whole world unless he wanted to escape to planet Saturn. He would have escaped if there was any chance to but since there was none, he died bravely. That is what Generals do.

Ojukwu on the other hand had a chance to escape and took it, that is what a wise General is expected to do. If he had allowed himself to be captuered and prostrated like diya before junior officers begging than he would have taken the award for cowardice but he escaped and rightly so. Besides, Ojukwu was a colonel in the Nigerian Army when the war broke out and not a general. Diya was a General.

DIYA REMAINS THE RECORD HOLDER FOR COWARDICE AS FAR AS ARMY GENERALS ARE CONCERNED.

Diya cried when he was in the sitting room of his friend and boss during a private discussion. note he broke into tears when he realised that it was a setup built around him and Bursted into years when pleading for his colleagues that were robbed into the case (very passionate) = that is normal

Diya never cried or run away during his trial and when he was sentenced to dead

Ojukwu disappeared, abandoned his people to continue enjoying in another country.....
Rubbish.

A General is not expected to break down in tears under any circumstances before a juniour officer begging for his life.

He was very cowardly by prostrating before a junior officer and begging, crying like a baby.

Ojukwu was right in escaping because there was chance to do so.

If Ojukwu had been captured and he prostrated like a geko lizard begging then we can call him a coward but he escaped.

Compare with General Aguiyi Ironsi aka IRONSIDE who was brave in the face of death and did not beg or cry for his life. He died bravely like a true army General. The story is there.

Oladipo Diya takes the award as the most cowardly General of the 21st century and is a big disgrace to the Nigerian army and soldiers all over the world.

PoliticsYoruba Youths Have Lost Influence, Respect Of Nigerians-reason for Owoda in Lag by HurtgenForest(op): 6:29pm On May 17, 2016
Writing for Naij.com from Magodo, Lagos, [size=16pt]Maxwell Adeyemi Adeleye[/size] says the Yoruba youths are no longer making their valuable contributions to the political and cultural life in Nigeria. What can the Yoruba people do to restore lost influence? Lateef Raji, a public policy analyst, in an article titled “Dwindling Oil Revenue: What Next for Nigeria?” posited that today, despite the pitiful state of unemployment in Nigeria, ironically, the nation is still rated as the third destination of investors and one of the fastest-growing economy in the world. Raji noted that Nigeria is a golden land of numerous opportunities for those who are resourceful, ingenious, creative, innovative, inventive, groundbreaking, enterprising, hardworking, focused, visionary and, most significantly, disciplined. Consequently, as a concerned Nigerian, I want to question the role(s) of


Yoruba youths in the current fight against unemployment, starvation and poverty in Nigeria. This question was necessitated by my discovery through indirect observations that Yoruba youths are the most lazy, perfidious and egoistic youths in Nigeria as at today. I discovered that the pride of an average Yoruba youth has overshadowed his intellectual judiciousness, level-headedness and sagacity. Today, among ten Nigerians submitting their resumes to multinational corporations eight would be Yorubas. Folks from my generation in the Western Nigeria are too lazy to tap from the abundant opportunities that litter the streets of, say, Lagos, for primitive accumulation of wealth.



The Igbos, and, by extension, the Niger-Deltans and the Northerners have indirectly taken over the control of economy of Lagos, Nigeria’s indisputable number one centre of success, excellence and opportunities. The Apapa wharf in Lagos has virtually been taken over by the Easterners. The data that I got from the Nigerian custom services divulges that 63% of those licensed to transact businesses in Apapa Wharf are Igbos. More so, data collected from licensing office reveals that owners of 56% of commercial motorcycles in Lagos are Northerners and Easterners. The lucrative transport business has been hijacked from the Yorubas. Today, the major work of average Yoruba youths on the streets of Lagos is to collect royalty, due and charges from the Hausas and Igbos, using their motorcycles to make cool cash from their land. Ninety-five percent of transport, travel and tour firms operating in Lagos are owned by the enterprising and hardworking Easterners. The Yorubas stay at various intersections harassing hardworking people transacting their legal businesses in the name of collecting charges and dues for the local government. (Owoda)


I also discovered that majority of the few Yorubas riding commercial motorcycles in Lagos are locally-trained automobile engineers that have abandoned their workshops. Furthermore, the popular Ladipo and Owode motor spare parts markets in Lagos are now solidly in the hands of Igbos. As usual, the Yoruba youths are in the market collecting dues for their local government chairmen and the Iyaloja General of Lagos. Yaba, Oyigbo, Sabo, Oshodi, Agege, Alaba, Idumota, etc. markets have been taken over by the Easterners and Northerners who are predominantly youths. Let me also assert unequivocally that the Igbo youths are now becoming more prosperous in the entertainment industry than the Yoruba youths. Today, the Yorubas hardly tune their DSTVs to the Yoruba movie channel of the satellite television; rather, they watch some other movie channel that show English movies with actors and actresses of Igbo extraction. Why? Because most Yoruba movies are short of creativity. I can also articulate that 85% of the CEOs and executive directors of commercial banks operating in Nigeria today are Igbos and Hausas under the age of 50. They are very talented in boardroom politics, unlike their Yoruba counterparts, and they assist each other with an amazing ease. Educationally, the Yorubas are no longer in the top-three. According to the National Universities Commission (NUC), Anambra, Imo and Enugu have the highest number of professors and doctorate degree holders in Nigeria. Ekiti and Ondo states that used to top the list have been demoted to number four and six respectively.



In 2014, the reports of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and the National Examination Council (NECO) revealed that the Yorubas have been upturned by the Easterners in terms of academic performance. Ekiti, a state known as fountain of knowledge, was number 34 in 2013. The Yorubas are also missing in the sports sector. The Golden Eaglets, Flying Eagles, Super Eagles, Flamingoes, Falconets, Super Falcons, D’Tigers, other national teams are dominated by the Igbos and Hausas. The team that won the African Cup of Nations for Nigeria in 2013 was tagged Biafran national team by some columnists and social commentators, including myself. Politically, the Igbos and Hausas are more united than the Yorubas. The result of the 2015 presidential election is a point of reference. The Hausas voted massively for General Buhari of the APC, while the Igbos extraordinarily voted for Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP. Sadly, the Yorubas had no bearing during the election. Jonathan’s inner circle members are currently blaming the Yorubas for their son’s expected defeat.


Victorious Buhari’s teammates are reportedly saying that the Yorubas contributed little or nothing to the success of their kinsman. In conclusion, I want to impel my generation in the Western part of Nigeria to wake up and begin to act. The nation of Nigeria that I am seeing today is hemorrhaging. I suggest we put ourselves in strategic positions. The bitter truth is that our leaders only think for themselves and their children.
