Politics › Re: I Asked Chatgpt Why The Yoruba Black Scorpion Died A Pauper by iamnotillicit(m): 10:28pm On Mar 02, 2025*. Modified: 11:35pm On Mar 02, 2025 |
ScamHunter: AI gave examples of his petulance: Yes, Benjamin Adekunle had multiple clashes with authorities during and after the Nigerian Civil War. His outspoken nature, aggressive war tactics, and lack of political diplomacy created friction between him and the military high command. Here are some notable instances:
1. Clashes with Yakubu Gowon (Head of State)
Adekunle frequently complained that his 3rd Marine Commando Division was underfunded and undersupplied compared to other divisions. He publicly accused the Gowon-led government of neglecting his troops despite their frontline role.
His frustration boiled over in interviews where he criticized the government’s handling of the war. This did not sit well with Gowon and other military leaders.
His removal from command in 1969 was seen as a direct result of his open criticisms. He was replaced by Colonel Olusegun Obasanjo, who went on to take credit for the final phase of the war.
2. Dispute with the Supreme Military Council (SMC)
Adekunle was sidelined from major military decision-making after the war. Unlike other top commanders, he was not given a prominent post or major financial rewards.
He reportedly had issues with senior officers who viewed him as too arrogant and independent-minded. This contributed to his exclusion from the inner circles of power.
3. Clashes with Obasanjo
After Obasanjo took over his command, Adekunle felt betrayed and sidelined.
There were reports that he accused Obasanjo of benefiting from his hard work without acknowledging the sacrifices made by the 3rd Marine Commando.
Their relationship remained strained even after the war, as Obasanjo continued to rise politically while Adekunle faded into the background.
4. Fallout with the Military Establishment
Unlike other officers who transitioned into politics or lucrative business ventures, Adekunle became a forgotten figure.
In later years, he publicly lamented how he had been abandoned, making statements that further alienated him from the military elite.
Final Years
In contrast to generals like Theophilus Danjuma (who became one of Nigeria’s richest men through oil deals), Adekunle struggled financially and lived in relative obscurity until his death in 2014.
He once granted an interview where he expressed disappointment over his treatment by Nigeria, a stark contrast to his battlefield heroics during the war. So you mean Murtala, Danjuma and co are no longer villains even tho they killed Ironsi and supervised the decimation of Biafrans just because Adekunle who was one of them was not as rich as them...?
