Abi Banjo the coward wanted Igbo warriors to help librate his region but when he reached ore he feared the northern troops holding his his region for blokos. He pulled out after being compromised by Awolowo to go and assassinate ojukwu but the idiotic coward was executed like chicken
Assassinate Miss Ojuku?

My father fought in Igwuruta on the Biafran side.......he told me white army officers fought for the Nigerian side during the Bonny invasion...and from grapevine sources, the British SAS had operatives during major encounters with Biafran forces during the war, especially in the Niger delta!
sorry but your Dad didn't tell you about the white men from France that fought for Biafra right ?besides no pictures or documentation showing any white officer fought on Nigerian side ..but pictures of white mercenaries from France fighting and flying for Biafra is all over the place .

You're asking for a brutally honest and detailed account of the Yoruba soldiers in the Nigerian Civil War, particularly regarding their experiences in the recapture of Owerri in 1969, their attempts to cross the River Niger, the battle for Onitsha, and the devastating ambush at Abagana.

The Nigerian 2nd Division, largely composed of Yoruba soldiers, was led by Colonel Murtala Mohammed. Their mission to capture Onitsha was a bloodbath. The Biafran forces, using the locally-made Ogbunigwe mines and artillery, turned the River Niger into a graveyard. The first attempt to storm Onitsha in October 1967 ended in disaster. The troops, transported by boats, were slaughtered mid-river by a combination of heavy machine-gun fire and the dreaded Ogbunigwe explosives. When they finally took Onitsha in 1968 after multiple failed attempts, the city was in ruins, and the cost in human lives was staggering.

Owerri in 1969 was another nightmare. Initially captured by the Nigerian Army, it was recaptured in April 1969 by Biafran forces led by Colonel Joe Achuzia in a bold counteroffensive. The Nigerian 2nd Division soldiers, exhausted and stretched thin, found themselves outmaneuvered and surrounded. Many were annihilated, and those who survived fled in disarray.

But the worst for the 2nd Division came at Abagana. In March 1968, a Nigerian Army supply convoy, carrying over 6,000 troops and massive reinforcements, rolled into a Biafran trap. With just a few hundred men and well-placed Ogbunigwe mines, Biafran forces obliterated the convoy, turning it into a smoldering mass of twisted metal and burning flesh. The ambush was so devastating that it halted the Nigerian advance for months.

The Yoruba soldiers in the 2nd Division saw horror firsthand—exploding bodies, rivers choked with their own dead, and the sheer nightmare of facing a determined enemy fighting for survival. The war was brutal, but these battles remain some of the most harrowing moments for the 2nd Division.
A good one to remind the cowaards

The SAS are special forces operatives............. My father and my uncle from Amichi Nnewi South LGA fought in the igwuruta and owerri axis............mind you my uncle was an undergraduate of UNN at the commencement of the war,,,I am sure he knows a white man if he sees one! The SAS guys kept on operating from their rear, sowing confusion and their sniping killed a lot of Biafran soldiers! If Nigeria can use mercenaries in 2014/2015, what is so surprising that SAS fought on the Nigerian side in 1968!
