Wait, so Ojukwu was fighting for what was right, but the people he was fighting for, all vilified him??

He has written his own denial but we owe posterity to keep the facts for posterity.

JAMO84:
Now, let's look at the killers:


Nzeogu - killed Sardauna
Ifeajuna - killed Balewa
Nwobosi- killed Akintola and Arrested Fani Kayode
Anuforo- killed Maimalari
Nwatuegwu- killed Okotie Eboh....

Wahala just dey load everywhere. This is serious

Will the current Igbo generation ever learn from these mistakes.

It’s time to focus on Igbo only interests.

Trying to do the right thing in Nigeria has never benefited Ndigbo

Ozwor will always be an ozwor

IBB SHOULD GO AND REST, YOU CAN'T CHANGE HISTORY

War broke out because Colonel Ojukwu did not agree with General Gowon's breakup of the East for Eastern minorities. He insisted on the Aburi accord. What kind of revisionist history is IBB propagating?. Since he has agreed to what he did to MKO, MKO's family should take him to court for damages. It is very necessary if nothing else is done as a fallout of the publication of his book.

Your lies can never be true. Evil people like always reject the truth.

What about the Igbo officer that gunned down another Igbo officer in the presence of his pregnant wife according to IBBs book?

Your cherry picking the points that suit your narrative would only continually deceive and mislead your generation born and unborn, QED.

Lawani, as a Nigerian, you are free to take IBB to court as well over the MKO debacle.

Kind of an open secret.

It's something that can be found in any decent history of Nigeria. I've known of the facts since the late 1990s.

The period July 31 to August 3 was when Nigeria's future was decided

I will not be able to get as much damages as MKO's children who can possibly succeed in making IBB a poor man. Then I have a lot of my own issues presently

Exactly...

Colonel Ojukwu caused his own failure. Nobody vilifies him. He lost the war because he invaded the Midwest and the west when the Nigerian army was attacking Biafra from the Northern direction. Nothing more than that

Don't think MKOs children would be bothered either. It's better to die the idea.

And when the Yoruba man rejected it, Gowon will then insist that he is senior to Gowon and must then be made HoS.

By now, you should have known that these guy's mindset is clouded with evil. Ignore them to keep fooling themselves.

After it was an open secret that the Yoruba General who had emerged as the most senior officer following the execution of Ironsi had made it clear that he did not want to be HoS.

Ojukwu was simply challenging Gowon's emergence as HoS on the premise that he was not the most senior officer next in line.

Guess who Ojukwu wanted to replace Ironsi - himself.

They have been ignored for too long. It's high time they are put in their obscure positions.

And yet we Wonder why Nigeria has not really made significant progress despite abundant resources.

Nigeria has been cutting and joining governance since time immemorial.

Meritocracy died even before Nigeria became a republic, reason why it eventually became a banana republic where anything goes without consequence.

I read that Ojukwu opposed the ascension of Gowon preferring that military hierarchy was followed strictly and diligently and the Babatunde Ogundipe should be tye next president, before things went sour .

My grandpa and Ojukwu were friends, In fact they both attended war college together, before the Biafran war Ojukwu told my grandpa that he met with Awolowo at Calabar prison and tried to persuade him to join the Biafran side, only if he can secede the SW let everyone be regional.

History wasn’t just halted—it was butchered, burned, and rewritten by those who feared the truth. Eastern Nigeria—Igbo, Ikwerre, Ika, Agbo, Anioma—was force-fed deception, robbed of its past, and conditioned to forget. The betrayal runs deep, but ignorance is no longer an excuse. It’s time to rip apart the fabrications, expose the rot, and reclaim the stolen truth—ruthlessly and without mercy

Ojukwu and ifeanjuna had no business being in the army in the first place.

Both of these men joined the army as graduates who were known to be actively engaged in Marxist çircles during their days in the university. Ojukwu was a card carrying member of the British Communist party in their Oxford branch. Ifeanjuna was a radical Marxist aligned to the Zikist movement at the university of Ibadan.

Both of these men chose a career path in the military to advance their Marxist takeover of the polity.

Even Ironsi decried at one time that he 'asked for soldiers but they gave him graduates".

Have you asked why the likes of ojukwu was still allowed to remain in the army and even converted to the officer cadre?

Who had the powers to ensure radical Zikists like. ifeanjuna became commissioned officers ?

The only person to have such sway over military recruitment was Azikiwe as President and HoS of the country.

David Ejoor spoke about these irregularities and came to the conclusion that the ibos led by Zik had planned from independence to take over the polity.

More and more conjectures.

Well what we are doing here is merely catching cruise and not an academic exercise.

I remember when ojukwu visited trade fair and saw the investments done by igbo people he wept profusely.

Trying to do the right things and follow dues process in Nigeria is the worst mistake ndi Igbo has made in past.We should be transactional in our dealings with other Nigerians.

Don’t approach your enemies with justice and fairness. Only watch out for your interest.

Coming from someone scrapping through the trash heap of lies that is IBB's book to seek a revisionist narrative.



We are the point were your lies are not even entertained .

The only reason we counter you here is so that others now and in the future who stumble upon such nonesense attempts at revisionism towards reinforcing the Ibo perpetual victimhood narrative do not fall for such gimmicks.

If Azikiwe had done the right thing, he won't have filled the army with his ethnic tribalistic Zikist elements in the first place.

Ifeanjuna and Ojukwu had no business joining the military or even getting accepted at all.

Have you asked what motivated these 2 men to join the military in the first place considering their antecedents?

The most troubling is Ojukwu joining the army as an NCO after graduating from Oxford . Does that not set off all red flags ?

Ojukwu and ifeanjuna saw the military as a vehicle to achieve their Marxist agenda.

They joined the military to subvert it from within and use it to advance their political ambitions.

Ifeanjuna has since been acknowledged to be the one who spread his radical leftist ideology to officers like Nzeagwu.

Speaking of doing the right thing, how is it right in anyway for a bunch of radicalised leftists in the army to go about murdering leaders of other region while sparing their own fellow ibos and targeting for elimination non Ibo officers in the military ?

You ibos are senselessly stupid to think you can guilt trip others to whitewash your own atrocious acts and behaviours.
