Igboid: No one killed and raped your people, those were lies your shameless parents made up and passed on to you. Asari Dokubo had to admit that your parents told you lies and he went on to narrate the real truth about what took place in Minority areas. I had already posted it.
Many people don't know that Saro was killed by Abacha because he murdered in cold blood Ogoni chiefs who were pro Biafra during the war, using his violent followers.
Words on marble!!
The Biafran representative in the UK was an Ogoni man.
He was one of those murdered by Ken Saro Wiwa and his violent thugs
Iegendhero: Those that you claim got injured might actually be hallucinating or fronting for Ojukwu propaganda. What is the type of bullet used to shoot them? What is the name of the soldier that shot it? Is it a Nigerian military bullet stolen by Ojukwu to impersonate them? We can only get the right thing that happened by waking those that were dead to seek the truth, coz the dead dare not lie.
Back to your mention, Well some of the families of the victims of Igbo killings of the minorities are also speaking up and one of them is on this thread and we have more of them in the video of people commemorating the Biafran massacre of their fathers/brothers/sisters etc.
They already made their voices known in that video and that is enough to get the apology needed from Ibos to the minorities.
As an Ibo man that you are, you owe those people the apology. So proceed to do that now!
It is clear you are moving the goalpost helter skelter.
So far you haven't conclusively proven that Efiong deployed Biafran troops to go massacring his people.
But Adekunle your war commander was busy KILLING ANYTHING THAT MOVED. He was proud of this. So he was killing the innocent, because they moved.
Isheagu people have provided proofs of the massacre which include the unit commander, the group, names of those massacred. I will also add that Col. Adekunle's KILLING ANYTHING THAT MOVED mantra of the Nigerian larky also tallied with what happened at Isheagu.
But as a typical Yoruba man you've been running from pillar to post changing goalposts. Concocted videos won't cut it.
Red Cross substantiated genocide against Biafrans. So did the Vatican and Medicin San Frontier. Tell us one neutral international body that even ALLEGED massacre or genocide against eastern minorities by Biafrans
The people of Isheagu were confused by Ojukwu in his numerous propaganda mechanism by lying that the Nigeria military killed them when in fact Ojukwu was the one that masterminded their death through the backdoor to pin it on the Nigerian army.
I will only accept responsibility if we can wake each of the victims and ask them to confirm if truly the people that shot them were Nigerian military.
Forget about the plaque and etc, anybody can attach the name of anyone to a piece of brick and say they were casualties of his enemies.
So until then, they should go and get their apology from Ojukwu.
Am I clear bro?
A few of the wounded victims recovered. They helped to fill in the details of the massacre. So the condition you are seeking is well satisfied. Recovered VICTIMS contributed in drawing a literary picture of what happened. Ogbemudia was also identified, and it is easy to know those who were under Ogbemudia's command. A huge chunk of them were Yorubas.
I know you thought all the victims died. Well some of them survived, and VICTIMS were involved in putting together what happened, so this tale is from the horse's mouth.
Now that this your condition has been satisfied, will you now acknowledge and apologize for the crimes that your people were involved in.
Iegendhero: I will accept responsibility after you accept responsibility for the Biafran military killing ethnic minorities in the civil war and causing them pain and agony.
I will immediately apologize after you do the same.
I’ll be on the lookout for the apology!
How can I accept responsibility for the bolded when you haven't offered any proof. The battalion responsible and the unit commander and the names of those massacred in Ikot-Ekpene. The Biafran chief of general staff's people.
Isheagu people already provided all these information, so it is now left for you accept responsibility for the Isheagu massacre, after which I will start supplying you with the names of the Biafrans massacred during the war by Fulani and Yoruba military men.
Iegendhero: Name the 3 million Ibo dead in the civil war and the unit that killed each of them.
If you can’t, then the killing of over 3 million Ibo is a propaganda manufactured by Ojuku against Nigeria government .
Ofoigbo do you support this my assertion?
First of all, accept responsibility and apologise profusely for the massacre of Isheagu people by Fulani, Yoruba and Benin troops, and I can list out the remaining millions.
Iegendhero: You are confusing me by using two separate moniker.
You and I know you are the same as Igboid. We have been through this route before so quit these games.
I have a video evidence of people relating their history with several people commenting and I also showed you scholarly evidence.
I would be a fool by wasting my time finding the name of Biafran army unit because if I do that you will still ask me to wake up the dead and ask them if it’s true they were massacred.
Are you not thesame folks that deny Awo/Ojukwu prison issue even with the full grasp of cogent evidence?
Don’t think I’m trying to convince you? No, I know it’s not possible. I am only doing this for independent mind on this thread. Those are my target audience, you are only helping in giving this thread more views.
The more you quote me, the more the thread expand and the more people view and read our comments. You see it’s a win-win for me?
Nwokem you are already confusing yourself by thinking that Igboid and I, are the same.
I am an Nri-Igbo man, and I remember you and TAO claiming that EAST means WEST, when Benin chiefs told visiting Portuguese explorers about an Oghene in the east that authorised the crowning of Benin obas. A fact that was confirmed by Eze NRI Obalike who wasn't even aware of the Portuguese visit to Benin hundreds of years before.
You will have to provide the Biafran army unit s that took part in these massacres.
Isheagu people mentioned the Nigerian army unit, and their unit commander, followed by a list of those massacred.
You can't just make wild statements or consult concocted sites and recordings and wish that will fly with me, or any other intelligent Igboman.
Iegendhero: Lol watch the video of a politician Asari that is neither here or there against journals and videos of Ijaw citizens celebrating an open carnival.
I rather choose the video from numerous Ijaw citizens.
Don’t you just like how the first man that was interviewed spoke?
Of course. I don't know these citizens you're talking about.
Meanwhile Asari was a president of Ijaw Youths Council, and his aunt was killed by Nigerians for her pro-Biafra beliefs. I am sure if his aunt had shown allegiance to Nigeria, they would have used her in one of these concocted videos to claim that Biafrans killed her family.
Iegendhero: This is not a matter of disdain and we are not talking about Fulani Herdsmen killings on this thread.
This thread is a about the atrocities committed by the Nigerian military against the minorities in the civil war. I also echoed the fact that the Igbos also committed same against minorities.
I accept the fact that Nigeria military did but your kinsmen Ofoigbo failed to accept Biafran military wrongs against the minorities even with glaring pictorial and video evidence.
As per Fulani herdsmen and their attrocities, they are a menace to the society and I think each region is handling them in the way they think they can. That good that we are all in cohesion about dealing with them.
If a civil were to break out currently, I am 100% sure that the Yorubas won’t fight on the side of the North again. We won’t’!
I believe Igboid has already asked you to give details of the Biafran army units involved in these massacres. I brought out the point that the chief of defence staff will have to be held responsible for such massacres, if proven. But of course I know you will not be able to prove anything. Efiong couldn't have authorised the massacre of his own people
Igboid: Your picture is senseless. Nigeria had their own propaganda too during the war, and part of it included such pictures you posted. Most of those communities had to do and say whatever they are told to say to avoid similar thing like what happened to Isheagu happening to them, once their towns fell to federal troops. I mean it's so worst that Igbo communities in Delta were denying their Igbo tag to avoid massacre. Ikot Ekpene was under FG occupation when the picture you uploaded occurred, how do we verify the authenticity of the report?
Efiong was Ojukwus second in command.
Militarily he was the chief of general staff, which meant he was the boss of the chiefs of army staff, naval staff and airforce staff.
So they are trying to insinuate that Efiong, authorised the massacre of his people at Ikot-Ekpene.
NU Akpan was the secretary to the Biaf an government and also from the Akwacross area. He was just as powerful as Garba Shehu in this government. So these historical 419ners are trying to claim Akpan took part in the meetings where arrangements were made to massacre his people.
False propaganda has short legs. They can't walk far
Igboid: The Massacre of MASOB and IPOB members by Nigerian military and police for waving Biafran flag was justified by these evil people, until they went on their senseless SARS protest and got served by the same monsters they made.
Thank God that today the monsters they made are now exiling them to Benin Republic also. So it is not just Igbos that are suffering.
Naajjii: what made him to conceive such idea of suspending regionalism in the first place?
Because he came in as a military ruler, and military people are much more in tune with command and control and with one person being the ultimate leader. He filled the void left by Nzeogwu and Ademoyega's coup. He was comfortably the head of the army and was happy in that position, before junior officers struck, because of the Fulanisation of that era being championed by the Sardauna of Sokoto.
He suspended it because of the above reason, and he didn't abolish it, because he knew he was only going to stay there for a short while, before democratic elections are held for another civilian to take over. A civilian administration would automatically remove the suspension placed on the unitary government.
But northerners killed him, and yet didn't remove the suspension. Rather the northerners refused to acquiesce to confederation, but instead further removed resource control and more powers from the regions and states.
pricklewane: Why did Igbos in Aguiyi Ironai destroy regionalism ?
What was contained in confederalism that was lacking in regional government?
I have personally asked Kanu this question but till date no Igbo is intelligent enough to provide an answer.
For igbos that do not understand the 2. It is an exact replica of eating your cake n still wanting to have it. Igbos saw a prosperous Nigeria n out of greed wanted all it goodies to themselves but as fate will have it they lack the numbers to achieve that democratically n Azikwe finance a coup to enthroned himself there by ruining the democracy inherited from the British forever.
The coup Imposed a lunatic in Aguiyi Ironsi who truncated Regional Government n Imposed unitary govt so that the cocoa wealth from the West n ground nut wealth from the north will be brought under a foolish Igbo control in addition to the wealth from the East.
A counter coup depose Ironsi n Igbos declared war because the rest of Nigeria will not allow the wealth to be cornered by these bastards. They were soundly beaten and after losing the war n realizing unitary government they impose on others as taken their own wealth to the center where it is shared among wolves with little or nothing for them they concorted Aburi accord.
So I ask if all that was in Aburi accord was all Igbos wanted they should list 3 thing in it that does not exist in Regional government before they plan the coup to destroy it. If no Igbos is able to tell us 3 things that is in Aburi accord but missing when we had regional government why are igbo now asking for what we have always had without a fight ? Shouldn't Igbos admit their guilt in taking Nigeria through a needless war only to ask for all they we had before the war without a single thing more ?!
FIrst of all, I have never been a fan of Ironsi or Azikiwe.
But in support of Ironsi, he only suspended regionalism. He didn't abolish it. But before he could lift the suspension, northerners killed him, and yet northerners never considered lifting the suspension of regionalism
Again, Ojukwu arranged confederation for Nigeria, and Nigeria also refused to adopt confederation.
So basically, northerners do not want to lift the suspension on regionalism. Also northerner do not want to adopt confederation, proposed by the Igbos.
The fault in the structure of Nigeria lies squarely with northerners and other Nigerians.
if you had patience and did underground work it would have worked but you prefer ""bravery"" Ojukwu had alternate/ulterior motives that I am sure of
Ojukwu proposed confederation. It was agreed on, at Aburi Gowon came to Nigeria and rejected it Gowon instead created more states that was not agreed on Ojukwu declared Biafra It was Gowon that declared Police action/war on the east. Not Ojukwu.
Today it is very possible that Nigeria will break up because of the refusal of the rest of Nigeria to implement confederation that Igbos proposed after around 54 times 12 months.
Ojukwu took the horse to the stream (proposing confederation), but Igbos/Ojukwu can't force the horse to drink(confederation implementation). So the current structural ills of Nigeria have been caused by non-Igbos, including voting in a terrorist in 2015
theTranslator: I am sure that if Ojukwu waited 2,3,4 months with dialogue and good rapport je would have gotten it
but what did he do? rushed into declaring biafra and see where we are now tell your people to stop trying to change history thank you sir.
The Aburi meeting did not last for 2, 3,4 months. It lasted for a few days. Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis and other Nigerians had 2,3,4 months to adopt confederation, what did they do? They went and started creating new states that was not agreed on, in Aburi.
Today 100s of months down the line, they still haven't adopted confederation. Ojukwu restructured Nigeria fairly, but other Nigerians have kept Nigeria skewed.
And in Aburi Igbos established confederation, but the Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis and the rest of Nigeria rejected it and opted for the current unitary system that is currently being practiced
AllenSpencer: Are we talking of same entrepreneurship spirit that has not salvaged the region in the last 60 years.
American entrepreneurs account for over 50% of GDP, and you here saying they still have a lot to learn. Is this a joke or something.. Lets imagine they still have a lot to learn, should it be from Igbo entrepreneurship?
This message should be directed to under-developed nations like Sudan, Eritrea, Somalia and Liberia. Not the United States
owobokiri: Like Chinwoke Mbadinuju? Don't know why you guys tend to overblow your trumpets sometimes.. If Ngige went the way of Mbadinuju, Anambra could have gone threat of Abia. Under Mbadinuju, schools were closed for one full year! Picture that...
That's why Mbadinuju lasted for just one term. Every other PDP governor of his time, got a second term whether they were good or bad.
Anambra has a touch of class.
Have you even forgotten that Andy Ubah was forced on Anambra by rigging, but he only lasted two weeks and was kicked out.
Anambra has always been destined for greatness. The only APGA state, and in spite of APCs rigging machinery, Anambra will remain in APGA hands after the governorship election of 2021
owobokiri: Anambra people should thank Chris Ngige for untangling the state and her finances from the claws of evil godfathers.. It was because he was able to do so and smash their powers to smithereens that Anambrarians are now free to elect real serious characters to the position of governor in the state.. If he played along with the likes of Chris Uba and Emeka Offor, that state will be in the hands of hoodlums as we speak..
Not at all.
Anambra has the knack for seeking excellence. Anambra is destined to produce above average leaders
CodeTemplar: Dude has so much more dirt and is only laying the ground work for the defence of the dirt's to come. . Any video about him now can always be attributed to "doctored video" he claimed was on the way. Politics is indeed a dirty game.
