Thank you for your feedback. Please fact-check me. Biafra was winning the war in the first few months because their invading army was led by a Yoruba man named Colonel Victor Banjo. In terms of military success, no Biafran soldier, including Lt. Colonel Ojukwu, was as successful as Colonel Banjo. After he was executed on September 22, 1967, by Lt. Colonel Emeka Ojukwu on trumped-up charges of plotting a coup to remove him from power, Biafra began to lose the war.

Mind you, the Biafrans defeated Murtala Muhammed's Second Division of the Nigerian Army and killed about 3,000 of his men during the Abagana Ambush. Lt. Colonel Murtala Muhammed only escaped because a helicopter ferried him to safety.

It was Colonel Obasanjo's 3 Marine Commando Division that defeated Biafra and captured Biafra's ENTIRE leadership (they did not surrender. They were CAPTURED) after Lt. Colonel Ojukwu ran away.

So, if you say Yoruba's, who defeated Biafra, are cowards, then I would also like to be a coward like them.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

Reno is crafty. He twist things so much.

When you lack facts in an argument, you are easily defeated. That's what happened to this Okwudili in this arguement between him and Reno.

Neither Hausa nor Yoruba made Biafra lose the war. The death of Banjo and the overpowering of Biafra were just a coincidence. The overpowering was not made possible by the death of Banjo.

Biafra was defeated because Nigeria was heavily supported by Britain and many countries. Was it the death of Banjo that made blockade of food and medicines possible against Biafra? Even with supply of weapons from other countries to Nigeria, Biafra was wining. It was the blockade that caused starvation and death to weaken Biafra.

Did you see the comment of the Igbo guy he replied??

All the people pressing buttons for another war to start are going to be consumed by the inferno.

immortalcrown:
Yes. That's why I said the Igbo guy lacks facts. He credited Hausa for the defeat of Biafra.

Odogwuzack:
Ok. Good!

immortalcrown:
Same to you.

Odogwuzack:
But I'm sure you are aware that it is both the physical and intellectual contributions of the Yorubas ( eg blockade) that led to Nigerian success in the war.If Yorubas has stayed away, Biafra would probably have won.

gidgiddy:
The only thing Reno can can talk about is something relating to Igbo

He is talking about the first coup because Igbos were involved

But he will never in a million years talk about the seven other coups that occured in Nigeria, because Igbos were not involved

If it doesn't involve Igbo, he can't talk about it. The idiot finally found his true calling as an Igbo troll

immortalcrown:
The idea of the blockade didn't come from any tribe in Nigeria, just as no tribe in Nigeria made any progress against Biafra without the help of Britain and other countries.

Was the supply of food and medicines to Biafra from Yoruba?

The anniversary of the coup was yesterday. The bloodiest coup in the history of Nigeria that had so many unnecessary murder.

If Ojukwu had not matched his rebels into Ore, after he conquered the Midwest (Delta and Benin) in less than a day, the yorubas would have stayed on the fence.

Hahaha ok na
