slurryeye:
I'm glad you brought up the issue of Emeka Ojukwu joining the military as a Non Commissioned Officer despite being a Masters graduate. But there are some things you don't know that I will be glad to explain. See, when C.O Ojukwu returned to Nigeria after finishing his Masters from Oxford, he didn't join the Army immediately. He first worked in the civil service as administrative office for about 2 years. In 1957, he decided to leave civil service and join military because of his father's influence in his civil service career. He wanted to become a man free of his father's influence, and he believed the best way to go about it was to become a soldier. His father wasn't happy with the decision, and knows Emeka Ojukwu temperament wasn't good for a soldier. in order to discourage him, his father pulled string with the then governor general of Nigeria Macpherson to prevent him from being listed as Officer cadet which explain the reason why Chukwuemeka Ojukwu joined the army as an NCO. His father and Macpherson thought that he cannot withstand the rigorous NCO schedule and that he will later leave the army but Emeka persevered. He will however get commissioned when he was recommended by a british depot commander after he corrected a drill sergeant for mispronunciation of a word (element of boldness and pride he has always displayed). Sir Louis Ojukwu (Emeka Ojukwu's father) believed in one Nigeria and made his millions from one Nigeria. Many historians believe that if his father was alive, Emeka Ojukwu wouldn't have declared secession in 1967. His father died in 1966, a year before Chukwuemeka declared Biafra.

Lol,I didn't mention all this because it was impertinent to the discussion, not cos I don't know it,
No matter what is said,you would see as a proud man,but you never met the man,I did way before his death,he was confident in his abilities yes,but proud or arrogance is not a word to describe DIM,intact he was a happy go lucky type of individual who loved a good laugh,even with someone who was young enough to be his son.
And furhermore ,Sir Louis was a creature of his time, you make your money where you see opportunities, not because not because of national proclivity,I might make money from Ghana or tarzania,does that mean t I am a one Africa person.you guys always try too hard to convince, national pride is effortless not protracted, Sir Louis was a business man,business knows no nationality.

[quote author=donborg post=55734166]power resides where men thinks it resides. if ojukwu was killed, the igbos will simply look for another leader who may be better than ojukwu because nature abhors a vacuum. now if u were gowon would u be willing to take that risk? my broda, have u asked urself why adaka boro was not killed by aguiyi ironsi?. y do u think that nnamdi kanu became the leader of the igbos barely five yrs after the death of ojukwu? nature abhors a vacuum my brother[/quote/)

Neither adaka boro nor Nnamdi kanu led a protracted war led to the death of half a million Nigerian soldier,neither of them was formerly a high ranking member of the armed forces.he would have been court martialed and summarily executed.
You now have the luxury of hindsight,put yourself in that time and place,with the coup and pogroms,
Nature ahbors a vacuum,you say,imagine WW2 Britain without Churchill,or the Americans without Eisenhower, or compare the black movement without MLK or Malcolm X, or the black panthers without Huey Newton,
Once these men were removed ,the nascent movements they started crumbled,certain people in certain are a natural response to certain situations.it is either them or the movement crimbles.understand that.

Oh please

So it was in an auditorium that Bisfra was declared according to you, and you think that the action was not illegal?

Let us assume that was the case, and it was legal, what about the other ethnic minorities in the eastern region

Did they also give their consent before the country split? or ojukwu stupidly dragged them into a war they did not bargain for

And you wonder why the SS dealt a deadly blow to the thing?

Did you not see"' representatives of the people'',look the video is still on Google,and the transcripts of the meeting which led to the ahiara declaration.
You talk as if Biafra was declared in an instant, how weeks of pogroms and phone calls of negotiations BTW Ojukwu and Gowon passed before it got to that point,
Biafra was a peoples movement, that's why it was easy for the people to keep fighting despite the losing odds,they made the decision,so they stuck by it.nobody unilaterally declared Biafra.
At the time South south did not exist,but the eastern region,and the minorities did not disagree at first until the bombardments got to their areas.they were not missed in terms of manpower,but some elements amongst them started giving info to the federal troops about Biafra positions.
Well,we can all see how that turned out for them.I would wish to see indigenous people of the Niger delta control at least 50% of their oil wealth,own the oil blocs and provide most of the staff to run them in a fair world.because they are the ones living with the environmental degradation, what happens to them when the oil stops flowing.

pchukwudi:
Who the bleep wrote that constitution you babble about? God? Even the Torah that was given to Moses by God himself was later replaced by a bunch of more humanistic epistles written by Paul.

What kind of idiocy makes you think that a constitution which has lost touch with the aspirations of millions of people is still worthy of allegiance -especially when such a constitution directly violates the fundamental rights of indegineous people to self-determination?

My friend, all constitutions, regardless of how elaborate and progressive they may seem, are written codes. None of them is a living document. Thus when the living societies evolve to new realities, their constitutions should either be forced to evolve too and reflect the given society's present realities and wishes or the dead constitution loses its relevance. This is why civilized nations conduct referendum.

If this is true for progressive constitutions, how much truer do you think it should be for the repressive and extractive constitution we seem to have here?

Do you have any idea how many times the US has had to ammend her constitution?

Do you know that even the UK has no written constitution to its name as we speak?

So what's your problem? How could someone like you who claim to be enlightened not know that its silly to tie millions of people down to an obsolete document that no longer represent their interests?

Argue with idiots and run the risk of becoming one.

[quote author=slurryeye post=55728642]Chukwuemeka Ojukwu had always being full of himself since he was young. Born into wealth, he was a bold, courageous and outspoken boy, however, he was proud and believed to be better than others. He showed this attribute of pride almost throughout his lifetime. These attributes of boldness and pride made him slapped a white teacher that humiliated a black woman at the age of 12. The same pride made him believe he was not only better than the other 3 military governors but also better than Yakubu Gowon. You could see in the Aburi accord video that he was more eloquent and believed to be more intelligent than the other 4. As a matter of fact, the biafra war was Ojukwu ego war against Yakubu that he believed wasn't supposed to be the head of state

You may choose to see pride, others might see courage and confidence,
BTW,the Aburi videos actually prove that they were not intellectual equals not by a long shot,
Also, if he was ''proud'' as you say,he would not have joined the army as an ordinary recruit after having obtained his Masters from Oxford.that is not the attitude of pride but of selfless service.I dare you to try it and have secondary school dropouts telling you to frog jump and sit on your head,I doubt with your humility,you would last one week,yet he pulled thru to become the first indigenous Quartermaster general of the Nigerian Army.that takes character and discipline

donborg:
if ojukwu had played by d rules just like nnamdi kanu is doing now, we wouldve had biafra by now. if he never escaped, he would neva have been killed (another leader like nnamdi kanu would have risen if he were killed) but he will be imprisoned (just like awolowo and adaka boro) and if he neva gave up biafra, he will eventually be granted his wish just like nelson mandela was granted his wish. the problem with ojukwu was that he was never willing to personally sacrifice his liberty for the igbos which later made him to eat his vomit. he was also neither a principled man nor a man of his words. infact, he is more of a fraudster and a 419er than a leader which is d reason why nnamdi kanu was not initially trusted by d igbos when he started his quest for biafra. so far nnamdi kanu has not surrendered so hopefully, things will work out well when released

Kindly talk of things you know not hearsay, Ojukwu would have been killed had he surrendered.I was born just five years after the war ended to parents who both fought and contributed to the War efforts, No Igbo man who lived thru the war would ever blame Ojukwu for his decisions, why??.the declaration for independence was made at the Main auditorium UNN,by a council of the representatives of the people, Ojukwu himself warned them that it would be difficult, but was shouted down by the people,my father was present ,the meeting was captured on videotape, in case you want to check.
My father fought the war in the R&P arm of the army,stationed in Uli (Awo-idemili sector),he was present on the night ,ojukwu and his family flew out of Uli airport,that why I often laugh when idiots say he crossed the border dressed as a woman,nothing could be further from the Truth.
Did you ever hear of the muritala treatment to the asaba youths he called for a meeting??,
Stop being naive,he would have gotten no quarters from the Nigerian army

Ugosample:
This is the same thing I have been trying to say.

Ojukwu waking up one morning to declare independence was treason, and that act was a declaration of war.
Dragged my people for 30 months in a war that obviously they were not prepared for, and oblivious of the dire consequences of yhat foolish act.

And instead of the coward to surrender months before to end the suffering of the people, he let that thing drag on, now see the mess.
@ugosample,kindly desist from typing things you know nothing about,
Do some research,how long was it from the failed Nzeogwu coup was it to the declaration of Biafra,how many months in between and what events transpired??,
Were there plans for resolutions and what came of it??,before you come online to talk of waking up one morning to declare independence. If you are indeed Igbo,then may the souls of all my relatives who lost their lives in Zaria in 1966 be with you.
There are fundamental issues to be sorted out in this Country before it can really be a Nation,instead of addressing these issues,some of you come online thinking to score to cheap popularity points start typing warrants trash,
Did you know that Ojukwu himself warned the biafrans against the war,the decision to declare independence was made at the main auditorium UNN by an assembly of representatives of the people,,trade unions and students organization, when he told them it will be difficult, he was shouted down,ask anyone who was present to educate you.

That said, the sad reality of this topic is that Nigeria cannot split, as there is no provision for that in the constitution, the only way to split is war, and that is not an option because of Syria tragedy.

And as long as Britain lives, they will never assent to a U.N. backed referendum, because they will rather work with the certain, or status quo, than try out an experiment into uncertainty.

So the reality is that this country will remain the same.
We just have to work out how we can live together

Source: http://chrisngwodo..com/2012/01/why-nigeria-cant-break-up.html?m=1

No bad idea is repeated as constantly as the notion that the solution to chronic violence in Nigeria is for her to "break up." The case for Nigeria's disintegration surfaces routinely after tragic episodes of violence and has emerged following the recent increase in sectarian terrorism. Some perspective is necessary. Since the days before the Civil War, beating the drums of separatism has become a sort of pre-programmed response to national calamity. Rumours of our impending divorce attended the 1964 elections, the June 12 1993 crisis, the death of Moshood Abiola in 1998 and the Sharia controversy in 2001. In 1990, a gang of over-ambitious soldiers attempting to oust the Babangida regime even purported to evict five northern states from the federation. Thus, current debates about the durability of Nigeria are nothing new.

@OP,
Though your intentions may in the right place but,how many times must it repeated to "'one Nigeria''apologists that submissions that riddled with fallacies and lies goes further to widen the divide than repair it.
You can't defuse and dismantle an ideology with lies.
Your submission is clearly mistaken on so many points that it come off as an opinionated rant rather than an intelligible and educated piece.
You are doing no one any good with this,
Kindly do the needful.

Your use of language is quite appalling for someone with high tribalistic standards! Even tribalistic men want women who can teach their children how to communicate well, offline or online. I suggest you leave this issue of marriage and work on yourself for a while. It may do you some good.

@thread:
I'm a proud Urhobo man and in a relationship with an Igbo lady. She and her family are totally devoid of these triablistic bunkum I'm seeing on this thread!

I guess upbringing and exposure matters a lot. So many people have never left their villages and enclaves. They are blinded by tribalism and propaganda against other tribes without realising that the things they complain of are common to all humans, across ethnic barriers! Tell me of an Urhobo cheater and I'll tell you thrice of Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa cheaters! Point being that cheaters and bad spouses exist everywhere.

In this modern society, we should be concerned with love, understanding, homely virtues and every other thing that makes a good spouse. Your ethnic group/family won't be the ones in the house with you. You alone can tell what's best for you.

Fratermathy,her choice, her peace of mind.people should learn to respect other people choices and not interpret everything as ethnic proclivity, ultimately it is her choice.

Some of these people typing crap don't know shit about what it takes to raise and keep a family in this 21st century. BTW ,Romantic love is actually the least of the considerations for a viable and long lasting marriage.
That type of love will fade very fast.there are so many pressure facing couples and marriages today, that it is often better and wiser to marry within homogeneous cultural group,there is nothing wrong with inter-ethnic marriages,just be ready to take the pressures that come with it .at the end of the day,it depends on what you want for yourself and what gives you the most peace of mind.

P.s graduates who still call 40M Yorubas or 36M igbos''a tribe'',should please hand in your certificate, you don't need it.Nigerians bastadize words and concepts, tribes refer to group of peoples numbering at most in hundreds, the colonial masters invented these terminologies to keep you thinking small,what you have in Nigeria are ethnic nationalities not tribes.SMH.

Inter-tribal marriage is not a new phenomenon, in the old dayz wen two different tribe meet, they create a new language and start a new tribe.

That is y we have so many languages in Nigeria. Example is the Isoko, they are Urhobo mixed with Ijaw, but today claim different identity and speak a different dialect.

We look at the ikwere, the only reason we know they are igbo is beco of their igbo names but their language is different they are a mix of igbo and other tribe in the south. They dont claim being igbo.

Yorubaigbo is a new group or tribe. They are neither yoruba or igbo. They are yorubaigbo.

Are you saying that the ''Igbo'' cannot understand ikwere ??,have you ever listened to ikwere really??,ikwere is linguistically closer to mainstream Igbo in structure than even Ezza which is acknowledged to be an Igbo dialect.

You are absolutely right, the real grouse against Rochas is that he joined APC and openly supported Buhari over GEJ; a decision which didnt go down well with many Igbos.

When it comes to performance, anyone who says Rochas isn't working is either lying to himself or is just plain ignorant; most people fall in the 'ignorant' category though cos they've never even been to the state but just base their judgement on the nonsense they read online from haters. Majority of the vocal haters aren't even from Imo state. As far as Imo state is concerned, Rochas' performance even in his first tenure trumps Udenwa and Ohakim (and even Tanko Zubairu and co) put together.

The only problem with Rochas may be that he talks too much and the quality of his projects are really suspect (China roads). Besides that, anyone who claims Rochas isn't working (especially when compared with his peers(past and present)) is a clown

I am an impolite old enough to vividly remember Mbakwe regime,my grouse with Rochas has nothing with party(am apolitical).

The event held in Buffalo,New York didn't fail to deliver,although the New York Athletic Commission would have to step its game up on officiating. In the end, it was a Night of ups and down,that didn't live up to the hype,but a good showing for all the fighters involved.fans were shocked with 2 retirement announcements.
Fight analysis,
Aaaaaaaaaand still. ;Daniel DC Cormier def Anthony Rumble Johnson to retain the UFC LHW belt, the Main Card of the evening was for some a let down,because Rumble came in playing a game plan that favoured his opponent, he decided to rely on his Wrestling against an Olympic-level Wrestler in Cormier.this proved to be his downfall.
After a lackluster Round 1,in which he did manage to break the Champion's nose with a strike,the fight easily went the way of the Champion, almost a replay of their first outing.DC got the takedown and finished AJ with a RNC before the end of round2.
Immediately after the fight,Rumble announced his retirement from MMA, he will be missed by many fans for his K.O power and stunning finishes.
Also on th fight card yesterday night was the following honourable mentions.
Gerrard Moussasi vs Chris Weidman ended in a Controversial decision due to poor refereeing, with the decision win going to Moussasi, this one is going to need a rematch folks.
Thiago Alves looked good against Patrick Cote, dominating to get the Win, also Cote announced his surprise retirement after the Fight.
Our very own Nigerian born Kamaru Usman lit the Ring with his brilliant Wrestling and striking, dominating Sean Strickland both on his feet and the mat for a decision win ,the Boca Raton Blackzillian team member is consistently dominating anybody that steps in the octagon with him.he is one to look out for.

It was an exciting Night of MMA mayhem.

CONFAMA:
Why not ask why igbo women dump igbo guys just to have a little taste of afonja majic stick

Grow up will you??,
This is Africa,Men woo women not the other way around, if babe dey woo you,look well well,Na set up.
Word of advice,
No matter how big or sweet you think your dick is,a lady be it Yoruba,Igbo,isoko,estako or even martian will leave your ass for the next guy that satisfies the priority on her checklist be it Money,fame, security, celebrity,, pedigree or even better sex.their needs are complicated yet simple,so my guy,keep it humble and keep it simple.
That you think this way tells volumes of your character, don't worry,you will catch on soon enough,thank me later.
