The mistake Gowon made was declaring No Victor, No Vanquished. In life, when you get victorious, you dominate. Gowon failed to dominate. That's why this kind of talk is arising. What Gowon should have done was to try Ojukwu for war crimes and declare a death sentence on him in absentia, set up a war tribunal to conduct trials, jail and execute war criminals. Then, set up up a reconciliation commission that will recommend that the Federal Government shall be responsible for reconstruction of the destroyed land AND it shall surreptitiously decide all leaders for the area. That is how you dominate after victory. |

The hard truth is out there and it has been suppressed for over 5 decades. Now its becoming clearer as we use our tongue to count our teeth. |

dequir:In that same book, Wole Soyinka wrote that when Awolowo was in Prison, it was an Igbo man whom you charllattans hate so much was making broadcast in Awolowo's office in support of Awolowo. Unfortunately the rogue Awolowo killed more than 3 million women and children from the same people that supported him while in prison. |

Na lie. It did not start from Aburi. It started from 1966 when Ironsi boys killed all our leaders but his ethnic group. You caused irreparable damage and yet you wanted to dictate the terms of an accord. Ojukwu has made up his mind to secede that's why he wents to Aburi with impossible conditions. Gowon made a mistake and signed but changed his mind after Accessing the far reaching implications. |

Macphenson:So your "rogue" Awo suddenly became Rambo killing 3 million Igbos single-handedly? He must have been an unimaginable superman. Maybe that's why we Yorubas love him. |

Ojukwu declared secession No head of state will allow you carve out a country without reacting |

Macphenson:Didn't Okpara support the Jailing of Awolowo or not be honest ? Now what could a jailed Awolowo do? After his Political career had almost been demolished by the Balewa/Azikiwe FG and he was serving a ten year sentence My opinion is that the East missed a big divine opportunity by not insisting on making Akanu Ibiam or Okpara their National leaders. They were better leaders that Azikiwe who misfired until the East fell into Ojukwu's hand who was a far worse and vision less leader than himself At least Azikiwe felt compassion for his people which Ojukwu was not capable of . It comes down to the fact that Okpara and Akanu Ibiam had more fear of God than Azikiwe and despite all his faults Azikiwe definitely had more compassion for his people than Ojukwu who was not capable of truly sacrificial love It was lack of love that made Ojukwu abandon his people at the Warfront and flee. Once you put his talent for deceitful Propaganda aside Ojukwu had no sacrificial love for his people that was why he preferred 3 million to perish than himself to give up his ambition |

oyeb15:Had yorubas remained neutral even Ojukwu turned his gaze and rag-tag outfit towards yorubaland, surely Ojukwu would have occupied the South-west like he did, the mid-west region. Ojukwu's letter to Major Banjo leaves no one in any doubt as to his intentions and aims for yorubas and yorubaland. |

dequir:When your treacherous Awolowo came out of prison and was invited by Gowon to join his government, Soyinka took Ukonu to him to remind him that he shoulld not form alliance with the north that jailed him. He told him that while he was in prison, Ukonu was seceretly broadcasting from Awolowo's office against his jailers, risking his life calling for Awolowo's release. Few days before Ojukwus declerarion, he met Awolowo out of respect secretly at night to tell him that the east have decided to secede, to which Awolowo also promised to do same but the tracherous entity went and formed alliance with the north that jailed him. |

christistruth01:Typical of u people. Always speaking ignorantly. Nobody ever loved his people like Ojukwu. Ojukwu did what any sensible true ans loving leader woyld do. There is reasonable leader that will just sit down watch the progressive pogrom and massacre of his people. Okpara doesnt have any issues with your Awolowo stop lying. |

Wickedfact:Is that what your country is supposed to be? One where people use force of arms to dominate others? Isn't your country supposed to be based equity, fairness and justice? What if Britain had chosen not to grant Nigeria independence, but to dominate Nigeria forever? You think Nigeria would have been able to fight a super power country like Nigeria for its independence? Britain chose to grant Nigeria independence because it knew that trying to dominate is the wrong thing to do. They knew it would result in war. To what purpose? That's why Gowon could not keep to the Aburi agreement, it prevented him and his fellow Northerners from dominating Nigeria, and the East would not tolerate domination without a fight Look at Nigeria today, fighting, insecurity and suffering everywhere because people have refused that the country be run based on justice, equity and fairness I'm glad that Gowon lived to see his wgere his 'one Nigeria' got us all |

Ademoyega wrote his book about the civil war, Ben Gbulie wrote his own account, OBJ write write his own, Ojukwu write his own. If you care for Nigeria and the truth, advice Gowon, Ph.D to write his own book when scholars can still evaluate it while he's alive. Is there any reason why Gowon will not put all his tales in a book ![]() |
