Goosethetruth:
The covetous nature of Nnamdi Azikiwe made him supplant and remove Mr Ita Eyo in 1953 as premier in the Eastern region and then installed himself as premier in 1954-1959.
In 1959,Azikiwe installed his puppet Michael Okpara as premier of Eastern region of Nigeria and then travelled to WESTERN REGION and tried to covetously install himself as premier of Western Nigeria through his NCNC because they won majority seats in the parliament.

The sage chief Awolowo understanding the serpentine nature of the typical Ibo man and also understanding the domination and subjugation agenda of the Ibo supremacist Azikiwe quickly outwitted him by appealing to the Yoruba members of the NCNC to abandon Azikiwe and cross carpet from NCNC into the Action Group (AG) on the floor of the parliament thus giving the AG the majority in the WESTERN Region parliament and automatically making Chief Awolowo the Premiership.

It is not today the covetous nature of the Ibos began. Azikiwe has always coveted Lagos and Western Nigeria masked under his fraudulent and false pan Africa agenda.
Be not fooled. The agenda of all Ibo is greed,covetousness and ultimate domination of other people's lands.

Awolowo did a good job of preserving the Unity and cultural identity of Yoruba land. It is left for those he left behind to continue to defend the values and cultural identity of true omoluabi's and prevent these marauders from tainting one inch of the land.


The greedy Azikiwe quickly removed the Calabar man Eyo Ita as premier of the Eastern Region installed his puppet fellow Ibo Okpara as premier of the East and then proceeded to try and become Premier in Western Nigeria. Which true blooded Yoruba man would allow that? What you cannot allow in your region with a Calabar man you are now trying to practice in Western Region?
Nobody is falling for that rubbish.

You are not mentally stable.

This is the story of Eyo It's:https://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/07/zikeyo-ita-face-off-aladinmas-misrepresentations/

Zik didn't remove him, he rather went against the party policy and lost out big time.

Lamentation:
parasites?

When it is you animals who keep begging minority tribes to join your cursed biafra

No well breastfed Igbo man wants to share a future country with anyone not speaking an Igbo dialect in SE, SS and NC.
Only confused IPOB want such a useless multiethnic Biafra with Minorities and they don't represent the wishes of Ndiigbo.

Lamentation:
landlock Biafrans like their bendel counterparts

Insecure Yaribas, stop forcing Unity on others just because you are scared you can't make it alone. Only parasites do that

Good a thing you removed Anioma from it.
Nice. If you keep it this way, Ndiigbo will not only be your friends but will partner with you too.

fuckingAyaya:
This is the only reason they wanted Simon ekpa out of the scene so they can perpetrate their evil agenda.

Simon Ekpa and his gang are terrorists themselves.
Yes the herdsmen are a problem , but Ekpa and his gang are criminals and not the solution.

Lifestone:
Instead of debating,you are here being abusive, this typical of you guys.
You have refused to explain the logic of Zik accepting ceremonial Governor-General, rather forming a government and become a Prime Minister.

You said he was blackmailed into it for corruption charges.
But Awolowo was proven to be corrupt by a law court.
So if the British as you claimed were responsible for him going north instead of SW, then with Awolowo corruption, they would have as well ensured Awolowo couldn't form an alliance with Zik by blackmailing Awolowo to stay away from the alliance.
Do you now see why your propaganda is irrational?

Lifestone:
You have comprehension problems. I'm not surprised. This conversation, you brought it up in reaction to the a truthful video of a British who confirmed why Zik took the ceremonial Governor-General from the North as against the Prime Minister position Awolowo was negotiating to concede to him.
The British spoke pitifully how Zik was blackmailed with the fraud he committed. This completely countered the spurious Igbo claims that Awolowo betrayed Zik.
I hope this cures your comprehension problems.
Let's stay focus on the debate you brought up and not digress.
Beside, you didn't mention who gave Soludo, Okonjo the job

You are a clown.
If you believe that the British used threat of corruption exposure to force Zik to form alliance with the North, what then made you believe they could allow Awolowo whose corrupt deeds that involved embezzlement of Western region funds and diversion of the funds to AG was proven in a law court, to form an alliance with Zik?
You see how stupid you sound when you peddle such stories?
Awolowo was so corrupt that he was flying over the country on private jet.

Obasanjo never subscribed to your treacherous tribalism and love for mediocrity and incompetence. He hired best hands for the job irrespective of where they come from, little wonder you all don't like the man.

Since you talked about minorities marginalisation.
Maybe we should revise the Willink commission report on Eastern and Midwestern minorities.
I see you Yorubas think you are still in era of media monopoly where you spread falsehoods against Ndiigbo with no rebuttal.

This is the thief riding private jet in an era electricity was a luxury for many of his people.

pazienza:
The Coker Commission found Awolowo guilty of gross financial misappropriation and of diverting funds totaling N4.4 million in cash and N1.3 million in overdraft from government-owned corporations to finance political activities. This report, published on 31 December 1962, also absolved Akintola, the premier of the region and former lieutenant of Awolowo who had now become an ideological opponent.

https://encyclopedia.litcaf.com/history/history-political/coker-commission/

These are the facts about Awolowo.
He was found guilty of misappropriation of western region funds.
This is the thief the SW worship, not surprising considering how they worship Tinubu today as well.
Legacy of tribalism and embezzlement of public funds, living large , riding private jets while the populace lived in rusted zinc houses.

However, another dark eclipse came, when Obafemi Awolowo left office, as Premier of the Western Region in 1959, after an uninterrupted governance for 8 years and became leader for the opposition in the Federal Parliament in 1960. The first major clash, easily referred to as the “Coca-Cola Crisis,” came up between, Hannah, as wife of the outgoing Premier and Faderera, as wife of the incoming Premier, Samuel Ladoke Akintola. Dideolu, as wife of the Premier and also a family friend of the AG Leventis, the owner of Coca-Cola, enjoyed the patronage of the Coca-Cola bottling company as its major distributor, since 1956.

Faderera, wife of the new Premier, insisted that Mama should relinquish the distributorship to her and Dideolu felt insulted by this request. It is a striking coincidence, that the two women, Hannah and Faderera, were equally strong and had very strong influence on their husbands. Faderera Akintola, Nee Awomolo, from Igbajo in the Ijesha speaking town of Yoruba land, trained as a Nurse at the Baptist Mission Hospital Ogbomosho, when Ladoke was at the Baptist College Ogbomosho, from where they started a blossoming relationship, which led to marriage in 1935. Faderera, like her policeman father, was a woman with strong views.

This is the type of corrupt legacy Awolowo was leaving in the west.
Fighting over Coca cola distribution deal.

Lifestone:
Your comments reeks of everything we know about the Igbos, somebody else is always responsible for their problems, it didn't start today. Zik stole money from the government he led, got found out, the British used it against him you blamed Awolowo, Ojukwu led his people to a senseless war, a war he was not prepared for, he had no weapon, no foreign power support, he has no money of his own, has no food to feed his people, yet be blamed others whom he was fighting for not giving him money and food, the little food that entered Biafraland for the civilians were stolen by Ojukwu and his soldiers, yet you and your fore fathers continue to blame others, you humiliated and oppressed the minority tribes when they were under the old Eastern region, yet when they refused to follow your wayward Biafra, you blamed others, they seize your properties in PH, but all your properties in Yorubaland were kept and release to you after the war, yet you are here bleeping and blaming Yoruba for properties that were seized in PH, you by yourself change your currency making all the money you had before the start of the war useless, yet you blamed others rather than admitting your waywardness.
We know you guys already, this is still showing till today, Chest beating, lack of accountability and responsibility.

No court or justice system found Zik guilty of any financial misappropriation, you are a clown and the joke is on you.
All you have is conspiracy theories.

Awolowo was tried in a court of law under Coker Commission and was found guilty of financial misappropriation and treasonable felony. Awolowo was a common thief and was jailed for his theft of western region funds, but instead of taking responsibility for his crimes, you want to blame Zik, is this not madness?

You want Zik to form alliance with a treacherous Awolowo that was scheming to use him to better his negotiating position with the North like he eventually did with Ojukwu while claiming to be neutral and ready to secede if the East does, but ended up in bed with the North and was pushing starvation policy in the East.
Evil souls.

The Willink commission report is available for everyone to read.
The commission found no single instance of Igbo marginalisation of the minorities but found multiple instances of your wickedness against the mid West minorities hence the recommendation for Midwest creation.

No body asked for any food from your devilish Awolowo, it was only asked that the food passage be not blocked. Your evil Awolowo was in support of Nigerian army shooting down planes from red cross and other humanitarian agencies bringing food to Biafra.

You are a plaque to the country. You instituted Indigenization policy, colonized all foreign companies, and ran them all moribund through your owanbe culture and plunged the country into economic crisis in the 80s.
You have repeated the feat again with APC since 2015 to date, you inherited an economy that the Igbo economic team of Okonjo Iweala, Soludo, Aruma Oteh, etc grew into African biggest economy and you ruined it all with your usual incompetence and Igbophobia. You have plunged the country into recession, made her currency useless and rendered the people poor, yet all you think of is Igbo, Igbo!
When are you going to take responsibility for ruining Nigeria in 1980s and since 2015-date, when are you going to understand that you are a failure and good at nothing that has to do with governance or economy ?
When are going to stop looking for Igbo to blame for your failures?

StaffofOrayan:
Awolowo's legacies are numerous, lots of innovations
that were first in Africa, Asia and some parts of Europe, Azikiwe despised him, conspired to throw him in jail for treason, despite all these, you ran away from the North and Awolowo was put in charge of the destinies of Igbos during the war! Talk about IRONY!!
Did he discharge his duties with bitterness? History says no, he made Igbo return to the South West as smooth as possible, going out of his way to secure abandoned properties, you friggin got 20 pounds!
Show me ANY COUNTRY in the world that fought a civil war and gave out money, just ONE!
I can just imagine if reverse is the case, would Azikiwe have been so magnanimous?

What legacy? Legacy of tribalism, of failed bids to overthrow Balewa and later IBB government?

You lots are allergic to the truth and that's why the country will not progress.
The one who plotted to get Awolowo jailed was Akintola. He was in alliance with Balewa and Saraduna and they exposed Awolowo crime of embezzlement of Western region funds during Coker Commission.
Awolowo was tried, found guilty of diverting western region funds to his AG party expenses and his flamboyant lifestyle of private jets and all.

Akintola and Awolowo family were also fighting over the coca cola distribution rights in Western region, it was all greed and the end result was that the Western region went up in conflict known in history as "Wild wild west" and "Operation wetie".

It's pathetic when you Yorubas try to rope Zik into your issues.
Zik was many years ahead of Awolowo in education and accomplishments, if anything it was Awolowo who envied Ziks high heights!

Not only did Awolowo discharge his duties with bitterness, he did so with ultimate wickedness.
He endorsed the use of starvation as weapon of war against Biafran children, and he ensured that the 3Rs proposed for the rebuilding of the East after the war didn't take place, instead everything was channeled towards Lagos!

If Awolowo had a switch button to press and wipe Ndiigbo off the earth surface, he would have, but God was bigger than the man with tiger crawl facial marks.
Ndiigbo survived all Awolowo threw at us during the war and after the war when he inspired Indigenization policy that handed Nigerian economy to the Yoruba elites right after he made sure Igbo elites couldn't participate through the 20 pounds policy.

Awolowo was a wicked soul but his evil plans for Ndiigbo all failed.
All those companies they stole through Indigenization policy, the Yorubas being poor managers of business ran them all moribund and plunged the country into economic crisis with sky rocketing unemployment. Most old money in Yorubaland have their roots in that Indigenization policy heist while the Igbo were forced to go into petty trading to restock capital to be able to make any comeback into the formal sector of the Nigerian economy.

Even as evil as Hitler Germany was, the allied forces restituted Germany back to economic force through the Marshall plan, but instead of same for the East, Awolowo out of bitterness went for wickedness. Zero marshall plan was made to restitute the Eastern economy that was the fastest economy in Africa before the war. And he and FG facilitated and endorsed the abandoned property saga in old Rivers state to further cripple the Igbo economically while making sure our relationship with the Eastern minorities became forever damaged and beyond repair. That's how evil and bitter Awolowo was.

Lifestone:
I'm sure you watched that video. Those who plotted the game owned up. Forget about what Zik told people, the fact is that he supported NPC to save himself from going to jail for fraud. Simple. It has nothing to do with Awolowo also sending people to NPC for negotiations. Ahmadu Bello new about the directive of the British that Zik must work with the North. The lie that Awolowo was double negotiating (nothing is wrong with this though, because Zik too was double negotiating) have stayed for too long and has been bursted finally.
I'm sure you don't expect Zik to tell the world the real reasons why he didn't become the Prime Minister that he campaign for years to become. He had a fraud case hanging on his neck, the British got hold of that and blackmail. Now it's so clear to me.

The video is irrelevant.
I had provided an eye witness account of events that transpired and led to Zik rejecting Awolowo alliance.
Are you trying to justify Awolowo treachery?

alanto:
Please no Yoruba should get into this conversation.... Everybody knows whom the igbos are already. Allow them merry in their folly.

When your lies are not allowed to stand, this is how you cry.
Cry more.

Buccalcavity2:
Lol.
When you make a choice, stand by it. Don't attempt to rewrite history to rationalize your choice. (Just like Jan 66 coup)
NCNC had majority vote (and 2nd majority seats) while NPC had majority seats (and 3rd majority votes); meaning both are the real contenders for Leadership/Prime minister. How the first agreed to become 2nd to his rival rather than be the Premier is still a subject of research (doesn't make sense).
All parties negotiate. It was why Zik "picked call" while still negotiating. Same as is done everywhere. Don't try to be clever by half!
Nothing wrong with losing out and forming formidable opposition rather than subjugate your might under a rival!
Check UK, Canada...
Some are just scared of being opposition, even up until now! (Yet call others cowards!)
The rest is history.
Even after combining thier strength, they felt threatened by Awo, thereby creating Midwest and interfered in western politics.

Treachery run in your blood, so I'm not surprised.
When you sit in a table telling someone you want to form an alliance with him, it's only normal to assume you have already weighed up your options and decided that this person is the best to form an alliance with.
You don't sit on a table, telling someone to form an alliance with you, while sitting on table with his rival talking about alliance too.
That's treachery, if it's not treachery, you would tell the person you are also in discussions with his rivals, but you wouldn't do that because you are a treacherous, unreliable and untrustworthy people, you see these traits as normal while in my culture, these traits are frowned upon, we cherish straightforwardness. When the Igbo tell you they are with you, they will follow you to the moon and back.
Zik already anticipated Awolowo move, that's why he had an Informant within NPC base to keep him abreast of issues.
If Zik had not received news of Awolowo trying to be the sneaky "baskard" he was all his life, he would have happily formed an alliance with him.

So it's obvious the NCNC-AG alliance failed because of Awolowo treachery.
This is history as we know it. You Yorubas should embrace it and stop trying to twist issues.
You no longer have monopoly of the media, we will always be here squash your propaganda.

As you can see, Zik was eager to form an alliance with AG and Awolowo, but Awolowo in typical Yoruba style was not interested in forming alliance with Zik and NCNC, he was only testing waters to see who is the stronger side between Zik NCNC and Balewa NPC to determine who to put pitch tent with.
He was negotiating with Zik , but he sent Akintola and his Entourage to North to negotiate with Saraduna and Balewa.
That's the nature of people from that part of Nigeria and Zik understood the game well.


Unfortunately Ojukwu was young, naive and worst still distanced himself from wise council of elders like Zik and Uwaechue during the Biafra debacle, and he put all his hope on Awolowo supporting the East or staying Neutral.
But Awolowo in his typical people style had weighed up the East and the North and decided that the North were better positioned and immediately pitched his tent with them.
Ojukwu got played because he was young and naive.
Zik is older, wiry and better judge of character so he he read Awolowo and his people well enough, not just pre 1966, but also in the second republic in 1979 and 1983 when he made himself a beautiful bride and choose to go into coalition with NPN, leaving power drunk and scheming Awo once again behind.

When these people open these useless threads to talk about how Zik chose the North over them, just know it's them crying that Zik didn't put himself in position to be played by them like Ojukwu did.

Ndweonu.

A picture of the book written by the Premier of defunct Mid west region, Dennis Osadebay on this subject matter that I quoted above

As I had forecast,the NPC won the majority of seats in the House of Representatives.The NCNC came next in the number of seats won and the Action Group came last.There followed political manoeuvres for the formation of a new federal government.

The Action Group sent emissaries to the NCNC and a four man team of the Action Group arrived at my home in Asaba at about 2 O'clock one morning, informing me that they had been sent by their party to meet Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe and the NCNC to discuss a coalition government between the NCNC and Action Group.

I was to lead them to Dr Azikiwe who was then at his home across the River Niger at Onitsha.I telephoned Dr Azikiwe and at about 6am ,the Action Group delegates and I crossed the Niger by ferry to Onitsha (the Niger Bridge had not yet been built).

After a short discussion with Zik in his home at Onitsha an NCNC Central Working Committee was summoned to meet at Onitsha.During the ensuing discussion on a possible coalition with the Action Group in the Federal Parliament,Sir Ahmadu Bello,Sardauna of Sokoto and the leader of the NPC phoned Dr Azikiwe from Kaduna and informed him that he had with him Action Group emissaries who were asking to form a coalition government with the NPC.

Dr Azikiwe informed Sir Ahmadu that the Action Group were at Onitsha with us too.That was too much for the NCNC and NPC and it was decided that the coalition must be between the NPC and NCNC.The NPC/NCNC coalition government was accordingly formed.

The Action Group became the Opposition in the Federal Parliament and Chief Obafemi Awolowo became the leader of the Opposition in the House of Representatives.

I recently bumped into a thread by a Yoruba propaganda merchant trying to twist history as usual on why Zik and NCNC went into alliance with NPC instead of with AG.

I am normally passive these days in this forum, but I felt that propaganda shouldn't be allowed to slide without being squashed.
This present Igbo generation cannot afford the same mistake our parents who left media to a certain Igbo hateful people, who then used the media to commit calumny against us while presenting themselves as angels.

BloomingDale:
Fraudulent WAZOBIA formed to steal the resources of the minorities. Three thieving ethnic group oppressors in Nigeria. Karma and Justice is coming for you all.

Coward like you.

Rather than face your Northern-Yoruba oppressors that you enthroned out of your senseless Igbophobia, you decided to rope Ndiigbo into your madness to please them.
Shame on you.

He needs to return to Nigeria and be visiting court from time to time and be getting frustrated....

To what's end? So that you can continue sharing a dead country with same Igbo people you hate and resent from the bottom of your dark heart?

Max24:

No such thing as Southern Nigeria. Something that doesn't exist cannot unite.

Max24:
Truly, we all need to grow up, respect each other's decisions and work together as one.

There can be no respect between Ndiigbo and Yaribas within Nigerian space.
That respect will only come when Nigeria disintegrates and Ndiigbo get our independent country.

Eriokanmi:
Gowon is one of the cowards, insincere and weakest military leaders ever known. OBJ made same revelation. It appears IBB no wan carry the truth commot as his time ticks, which was why he spilled the beans. The foundation of this nation really had issues but the successive generations could have corrected it, if not for ethnic bigotry. It all started from the north and later found its way to the south due to the perceived civil war massacre as witnessed by those who lived in that era. I had an igbo colleague in those days, who was well advanced in age. He's in his 60s now. He once narrated the unfortunate war to me as as experienced as a child and how he escaped those who captured him and wanted to send him to war to carry gun despite his age. I felt so emotional. My maternal uncle from ekiti also died in the civil war. He was my mum's immediate younger brother and the only son of my grandma.

Sadly, those generation of igbos to whom the story was narrated didn't manage the situation well. Rather than move on, they instigated rebellion against other tribes by accusing them of genocide and hate for the igbos. Yorubas and hausas also suffered severe casualties. All our forefathers were guilty and selfish. They caused the current wahala majorly. I've read several books on the civil war and the last I read was the Why We Struck. The intention of the war was to release Pa Awo and fast track the transition into civil rule by handing over power to him but baba made a you-turn by hobnobbing with gowon and giving them harsh tactics against the igbos, which included cutting off food supplies to them. Gowon also made his promise to him. Till his death, Pa Awo never ruled Nigeria.

I can never be a tribalist except I don't want this country to move forward. Pa Awo was to be killed alongside others but was released . The briefing containing the future of Nigeria was handed over to him but he went to Gowon's camp instead and the war rather raged on and took another turn. The Aburi Accord was also jettisoned, despite Gowon's promise to keep it. All our leaders still alive must apologise to all of us for ruining this great union called Nigeria and rendering this generation refugees at home and homeless abroad, struggling for survival.

The primordial problem is still evident today and that's why any tribe that produces president will populate his government with his tribes people. Naso e be from foundation. That's why I won't blame Tinubu wholly on what's happening in government today on his choice of political appointees. I only blame him for not being a true democrat by following his predecessors character. He should have acted differently because these were the perceived injustices he fought for, as a political activist back in the days.

Who knows, whenever it gets to the igbo's turn, they'd fill the government with their people too, time will tell. I think if we truly split and bear our father's names, it's better for us all else, the trend will only continue except our generation is proven wrong by whoever succeeds tinubu. Only obj ruled fairly in Nigeria, both as military and as civilian. I remember when some of our elders accused him of not being fair to yorubas and he said he's not yoruba president but Nigeria's president.

Lol! You compare few soldiers of Yoruba origin who died in the war to Igbos who had communities like Isheagu, Asaba, wiped off of its civilian male population.
You are funny.

The only truth is that Nigeria shouldn't exist.
Ndiigbo needs and deserves a country of our own, it was the situation in 1967, and after 50years plus, it has not changed.
The hate will only increase, until Nigeria is divided.
British India had since divided into Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India.
British Nigeria has to undergo same division:
Yorubas, North, Igbo, Southern minorities.

Konquest:
YOU will NOT be allowed to continue to use this Website to spread toxic hate speech and gross disinformation against other Nigerian ethnic groups anymore. What you and your ilk are doing here, deliberately distorting long-established Nigerian history are officially frowned upon on NL and completely violates the major rules of Nairaland.

Nairaland was founded as an international discussion forum or Website by @Seun in 2005, (who is incidentally of Yoruba descent) in 2005 and this Website is NOT an ipob Igbo website where you can think you can use to concoct and deliberately spread volatile disinformation, and toxic hate speech. It will NEVER be tolerated!

I'm ONLY gonna respond to this post, so that the younger, uniformed readers are NOT deceived by the deliberate disinformation in all your warped posts here. Ordinarily, you do NOT deserve a response after being hit by the CLEAR FACTS in my earlier post debunking those criminal claims, only for you to resort to deflecting and bringing up totally unrelated vile topics and toxic hate speech here.

EVERYTHING you condescendingly wrote ABOVE about the Ado-Ekiti indigene, the late Lt. Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi, MC, BEM, and Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN are purely figments of your "warped imagination" and will NOT be tolerated.

Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo attended the elite and prestigious "London School of Economics and Political Science" as a law graduate, eventually becoming a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, and he was given the GCFR title as an octogenarian to show his distinct nationalistic service to Nigeria over several decades by former President Shehu Shagari (thereby making him the ONLY man in Nigerian history who never became a Nigerian President) to be given the GCFR award.

If Obafemi Awolowo truly committed treason or was a coup plotter along with the other 16 innocent Action Group Party officials such as Chief Ayo Adebanjo (He was a lawyer and the recently deceased Afenifere factional leader), and Chief Anthony Enahoro (A professional journalist and the FIRST EVER Nigerian to move the motion for Nigeria's independence from Britain) to name a few of those who were framed up by the then sitting NPC/NCNC alliance government and wrongly jailed for "treason" in 1963, BUT wisely released immediately by General Yakubu Gowon when he became Head-of-State in 1966, Obafemi Awolowo would NOT have been given the highest GCFR title years later.

The internet has NEVER been anonymous and it was right on this same NL Website that the digital footprints of that criminal and international fraudster who posed as a legit millionaire entrepreneur called Obinwane Okeke (the so-called invictus obi) who stole millions of USD from American businesses, were detected by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the United States, and this led to Obinwane Okeke's arrest along with his criminal gang in 2019 by the FBI right in the United States while he was trying to escape to Nigeria in order to evade justice.

Empty chest beating of an evil mind.
You are crying that your lies will not be left unchallenged.
Keep crying.

Ngozi123:
Are you trying to say that this image was created in 1966?

Also, the person who made that song was not Igbo and he made it prior to the January 1966 coup.


@pazienza

Please look at what this poster is saying. Is this not the kind of stuff you were talking about in your thread?

All made up rumours that were never substantiated.
Ewu na ebe akwa song was not even sang by an Igbo man, it was Rex Lawson a Kalabari man who sang it, and it was sang years ago before 1966.

They made up lies that they never substantiated or provided any evidence for, to justify another lie called Igbo coup.

Apart from the Ewu na ebe akwa lies, they also claimed that Igbos printed bread papers mocking Balewa and Saraduna death.
None of these were ever substantiated.
They couldn't provide a picture of the so called bread paper.
When pressed on this lie years ago on this forum, this was the evidence these demonic people provided.
