Onlytruth: [size=14pt]Ojukwu excelled in the north – North govs [/size] On November 27, 2011 · In News
The Northern Governors Forum (NGF) commiserated with the Ojukwu family, lamenting that the nation has lost a great man.
Chairman of the forum and governor of Niger State, Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu, said the people of the 19 states of the North and indeed the entire country have lost a courageous man who would be sorely missed for his immeasurable contributions to national development.
The condolence message of the forum was contained in a statement signed by Aliyu’s Chief Press Secretary, Malam Danladi Ndayebo. According to the governors, though Ojukwu died at a ripe age of 78, after a prolonged illness, the forum was deeply pained by his passage.
“Like most of our Igbo brothers and sisters born in Zungeru (former capital of Northern Nigeria), Ojukwu excelled in his sojourn on this side of the divide. He did well as a soldier and as a politician”, they said. The governor recalled Ojukwu’s leading role in the struggle for the nation’s return to civil rule at a time when many pro-democracy elements were afraid to speak up against the military.
The statement said Ojukwu would be remembered for playing a prominent role in the 1995 constitutional conference which gave birth to the current geopolitical structure.
Ojukwu irreplaceable – Atiku
FORMER Vice President Atiku Abubakar, described the death of Ojukwu as a great loss to the country and Africa in general. Atiku, who noted that his death was another colossal loss to Nigeria at a time of strenuous efforts for unity and reconciliation, recalled that the Ikemba Nnewi’s role as a key actor in Nigeria’s political development cannot be easily forgotten.
According to Atiku, Ojukwu was a tremendously respected and influential politician whose endorsement was frequently needed by others to build their political careers, adding that history had cast the late Ojukwu into a role and he played that part to the best of his abilities.
Immortalize him – Reps
THE House of Representatives said the demise of Ikemba Nnewi, has left a deep hole in Nigeria’s quest for transformational leadership.
In a statement by the Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Rep Zakari Mohammed , the House described his passage as a colossal loss that is irreplaceable. “Ojukwu was the first Nigerian graduate to have enlisted in the Nigerian army and added intellectual dimension to the force while in service of his fatherland”, it stated.
“While alive, Ojukwu displayed rare courage on principled stand on sensitive national matters, we in the Seventh Assembly regret his death but we are consoled by the fact that we will continue to uphold his principle, ideals and uncommon courage that Ojukwu lived and died for.” “We are calling on the President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to immortalize this gentleman officer, courageous, successful politician and a leader’s leader.”

bayooooooo: I type where there is no NEPA! Your assumption is wrong. Which freedom struggle?
1. Based on geography alone, he should not have declared war without some sort of understanding with the West. He knew the whole North as constituted was not only bigger that the West and the East but they also controlled the military. Ojukwu did not have an army that was technologically superior to Nigeria's to neutralise that advantage. An alliance between East and West would have made North land locked and could proved disastrous for the North. Besides, he arrogated the whole eastern region to Ibos. The minorities were not carried along and that proved a significant weakness during the war as the Igbo hinterlands were effectively rendered landlocked.
2.War is simply not between two parties. Read the history of the world. Nations will take side either directly or indirectly. USSR, Britain and US, the major powers of the sixties, were on the side of Nigeria. Two months into the war, he was making pan african speeches when he had not established a country. His intelligence was clearly overestimated. He was not brilliant and I am greatly pained that he passed through Oxford.
3.War is not a mario game or football where you expect a fair play. Didn't US use atomic bomb against Japan? Was it considered unfair? You can be provoked, harassed and even humiliated. But don't declare war unless you are at least 65% sure of victory or you are clearly going for suicide. He simply wasted millions of lives of his people and made heroes out of Adekunle, Buhari and Obasanjo.
He was iconic but certainly not heroic! what do you know about constitution and mode of operation then  these things are just written article ojukwu never wish to ruin his people or whatever you called it. the power 'tossing' in the North and some 'Judas' from south west like awolowo believe the easterners are nothing but slaves in Nigeria. the war outbreak was a result of discomfort from illiterate armajiris like abacha,ibb and co i believe my Bottom line is well understood  |

bayooooooo: He wasn't and couldn't have been the only one, but he led a very successful unit.
You don't have to be bitter about it. It's ok. There should not have been war in the first place. As for Adekunle role, it was just simple and straight forward. Infact, war can solely be won on propaganda alone and so there was nothing wrong giving interview during war in as much that it would not endanger your troops.
Honestly, in a warfare, you should not expect help and to be specific food from the very enemy you are fighting. It's just logical. you are just a failure yourself, for sitting down at home all your freaking a$$hole life waiting for Ojukwu's Death , not only to show how expensive stoooooooopid are you rather the Lack of Knowledge and exposure the teacher that taught you in History were  |

jchime: Come to think of it, goodluck odechukwu knew that ojukwu is sick and made bianca(ojukwu's wife) a special adviser possibly to get the one time miss nigeria closer to himself. Now ojukwu is dead and he can comfortably take over. For the ignorant nairalanders.,.bianca was a one time winner of miss nigeria, a daughter of one time governor of the old anambra state and widow of ojukwu, the lady is stil l very young. Patience odechukwu umblerra jonathan take note and be carefull else dullard goatluck jonathan get you a junior wife.
