IGBOS ARE VERY LUCKY IT WAS GOWON IN POWER THEN.

IMAGINE IF IT WAS SOMEONE LIKE ABACHA?

HE WOULD HAVE ORDERED HIS TROOPS TO WIPE OUT THE IGBOS FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH AFTER THEIR SURRENDER AND OJUKWU'S FLIGHT.

IGBOS HAVE GOWON TO THANK FOR STILL BEING AROUND TODAY.

HE EVEN GAVE THEM MONEY AFTER DEFEATING THEM.

WHO DOES THAT?

I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH, IN THE HISTORY OF WARFARE.

i THINK IGBOS UNDERSTAND THIS POINT BECAUSE I'VE NOTICED THEY DON'T REALLY HATE GOWON AS MUCH AS YOU WOULD HAVE EXPECTED THEM TO.

YAKUBU GOWON WAS MAGNANIMOUS IN VICTORY.

IF YOU WERE IN NIGERIA IN 1973 OR 1974, YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IGBOS HAD JUST BEEN CRUSHED IN A CIVIL WAR A COUPLE OF YEARS EARLIER.

THEY WERE WELCOMED BACK INTO NIGERIAN SOCIETY IMMEDIATELY AND WERE ALL OVER LAGOS AND THE NORTH.

YOU WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW THERE WAS A CIVIL WAR.

IT WAS ALL THANKS TO YAKUBU GOWON, WHO DECLARED AFTER THE WAR THAT ''THE IGBOS ARE OUR BROTHERS, AND MUST BE WELCOMED BACK INTO THE NIGERIAN FAMILY.''


Gowon did well

While others celebrated, obasanjo was deeply interested in the ingenuity employed in building that airstrip in record time....a record not yet broken in nigeria..50years later.
Total fiction
Iboes are known for their fantasy and imagination
fascinatingt how you can tell yourself these childish stories and actually believe them

Record time?
What the hell do that mean?
Ingenuity? What ingenuity?

A solemn fact is that the Nigerian state is the biggest loser of the Nigerian-Biafran civil war as Nigeria is a more worser entity than Biafra today from the the stance of view. Even the Gowons, Harunas, Babangidas, Danjumas are all regretting fighting to keep Nigeria one. Their people are being killed with reckless abandon by their slave master today.

Murtala Mohammed died a gruesome dead in the hands of his co-collaborators. The middle belt- core North dichotomy & bitterness worsened with the Dimka coup. Benjamin Adekunle, Alabi Isama and other got disgraced and flung out of the Nigerian army.

But Babangida did, he knew yorubas in and out.
Participate in war indeed. Starving women and children is partication in war?
that's why it's called war, if not for Yorubas, Biafra will win that war.

Pa Obasanjo has always been a very charismatic leader of men. Now I see why he is always very unpleasant when he is relegated or when his opinion is challenged.

Incidentally, the account is that Col. Benjamin Adekunle , Black Scorpion, was the real Hero that led the gallant Nigerian forces through the tough battle grounds but was replaced by Col. Obasanjo after he had achieved most of the victory at the war front.

The war was avoidable but became necessary to be prosecuted for the sake of the nation. Both sides lost a significant number of lives and we pray never to experience war in Nigeria again.
May God bless Nigeria for ever. Check my signature for free stuffs!

Adekunle achieved a lot by massacring hundreds of civilians in asaba and targeting civilian population..

All the generals that fought for nigeria in that war are all cowards.

Interestingly, Alabi Isama (retired as a Brigadier General) has a Delta Igbo father.

Obasanjo and Buhari both fought as officers for the Nigerian army during the civil war, both became military rulers, and both became civilian president. I wonder how many people those two officers killed between themselves.

They also carried out economic war on the Igbos soon after the war,by giving evey Igbo 20 British Pounds to start life, no matter the amount of Biafran currency returned. That was the point they issued the indigenization decree,whereby Yorubas bought up all major conglomerates like Unilever,etc.They wanted to make us poor and eat from their palms. But the God of the downtrodden was on our side! The God of multiplication. Igbos went home with the 20 pounds but today,Igbos are soaring in the business world. We created our own conglomerates! Whatever is happening to the companies bought up by the Yorubas we don't care😂China is trading with Nigeria courtesy of the Igbos.Making money in trillions. The richest tribe in Nigeria. The most travelled people. We are survivors. We are Igbos. The more you hate us,the more we soar


obiekunie01:
as him come win all the win, were the one nigeria come dey today?? cheesy cheesy grin

where the winner come keep him crown? cheesy

al the tribes that participated in the murder of igbos in the name of WAN NIJERIA what is their situation today??

the Hausa have been denied everything!

the middle belts and northeast turned into bokoharam and herdsmen sitting duck for target practice!

the entire north is now one huge IDP and a land decimated by hunger and insecurity!

southwest become rice bandits and shofisticated skull miners!

the ijaw south-south which was used to block access to igboland has been turned into an un-inhabitable highly polluted waste land where their resources has been looted in their korokoro eyes and used to develop abuja, kano kaduna and lagos! while they are hiding in creeks and being paid peanuts! cheesy grin

the fulanis despite being in political leadership for years still have absolutely nothing to show for it! their disillusioned youths turned to bandits, kidnappers and highway robbers to survive!

DESPITE DESTROYING THE ENTIRE IGBOLAND, DESTROYING EVERYTHING THAT THE IGBOMAN OWNS IN THE GUISE OF BRINGING THEM BACK TO THEIR WAN NIJERIA, AND LIKE THE PHOENIX, THE IGBOMAN ROSE FROM THE ASHES OF THE DESTRUCTION, TO A GREATER HEIGHT FAR ABOVE ALL OF THEM! AND STILL SOARS ABOVE THE SKY DESPITE ALL THE EFFORTS TO PULL HIM DOWN!

till today, they are still doing their best to pull the igbo man down thru the use of saboteurs whom they empowered politically to help them destroy the igbo man.
their saboteurs devised unknown gunmen to kill all our intellectuals , our business moguls, our priests, and send many discerning IGBO voices on exile!

BUT DESPITE ALL THESE ATTACKS ON US, WE STILL STAND STRONG LIKE THE GIANT ROCK THAT WE ARE! cool

Contrary to beliefs, if Yoruba really declare war, you should take it seriously. Our forefathers even considered taboo the get an arrow to their backs. My opinion ✌️
Re: Throwback Picture Of Former President Obasanjo Posing At Uli Airstrip by Caleb15(m): 8:54am On Oct 25, 2023
Ojukwu was a coward, why invest all that money and resources to a cause and later run away to die in no-mans-land, why did'nt he himself lead the charge to lagos instead of appointing a man he freed from prison, igbos would have been better off without the war.
