DomPerignon:If he did so what? If you think Tinubu will sack Bianca Ojukwu because Ojukwu ordered non Igbos to leave Igbo land during the war then you're joking. Wake up oga!! This is 2025 and not 1967

Mrfeel:Invading and occupying the land of the people you expelled from yours and terrorising and harrasing them was all for the good of whom? Ejoor had told both Ojukwu and Gowon that no invasion will be done through Midwest. And after invading and occupying the Midwest , the goodwill that Midwesterners had for you evaporated. Buy I guess it was worth the try at expansionism Tueh |

DomPerignon:You yourself know you are just repeating expelling of none igbos from the East over and over again, without giving the reason that it was for their safety rather than hate , people from south west plus northerners too were told to leave The invasion was a path to Lagos like I said banjo was given a mission to reach the Nigerian headquarters in 24 hours he was never asked to delay in Midwest for 1 week |

Mrfeel:It was never for their safety. The students were expelled after they refused to pledge an oath to support Biafra so-called liberation of their region. The ibo students at UNN reported them to Biafra officials who notified ojukwu who then had them expelled from the East. Ojukwu did it out of spite towards the students and to truncate their education at UNN for refusing to be used as a pressure group to support the invasion and occupation of the Midwest. |

DomPerignon:LoL you see why I say you are just emotionally arguing blindly? The time ojukwu asked people from the Midwest to return to Midwest,he was still the governor of eastern region , biafra was yet to be declared there was no such thing as a plan to invade Midwest at that time and when biafra was declared unn ceased to exist it was now biafra university, and the plan to invade the Midwest came at the time federal troops captured nsukka and were advancing to Enugu that was when the plan to attack Lagos came ,that was when the plan to invade Midwest came, so you are just going back and forth over lies |

Mrfeel:Oga I though you said it never happened and that ojukwu never issued such a decree? You go change goal post tiire today |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 11:00am On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:Yes I will still say ojukwu never passed a degree to expell Midwestterners on the grounds of hate you are trying to portray here, ojukwu was just concerned for their safety, and on same safety, south Westerner were told to leave do , northerners in same manner , there is nothing here for you to hold on to make this much noise you are making here You are trying to make a big deal out of it cause words like decree and expelled are mentioned, we are talking military language not civilian language |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by DomPerignon(op): 11:07am On Sep 06, 2025 |
Mrfeel:Story. But he can send his ragtag undisciplined soldiers to invade Midwest and begin to terrorise them on their land. You go explain tire |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 11:14am On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:You can get emotional and cry about it all you want, the invasion of Midwest is not hidden the mission was clear , banjo and the rest who were sent on that 24 hours mission to reach Lagos failed to deliver,they were all executed in Enugu,end of story |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by DomPerignon(op): 11:25am On Sep 06, 2025 |
Mrfeel:Failed at ibo expansionism Well I have no sympathies for Banjo . And FYi, when in warfare are commanders executed for a failed mission? I thought Banjo was executed because he was accused of plotting to overthrow Ojukwu and bring an end to the war. You go change goal post tire today |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 11:45am On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:Of course, was that not the reason the mission failed? he was Given a mission he went out there and didn't follow the mission it failed, he was court-martialed found guilty and executed, end of story |

Mrfeel:Banjo delayed moving forward to attack Lagos in Yorubaland because he realized his folly and that he is being cunningly played by Ojukwu to lead Biafran attack on his fatherland so that the Igbos will take over Yorubaland. He came to this realization when Ojukwu appointed an Igbo man as sole administrator of Midwest after taking over the region and the governor then, Ejoor, had to escape in disguise, riding a bicycle. What the Biafran did in Midwest was different from what Ojukwu deceived Banjo that they were going to do when he was told to lead the operations. Ojukwu told Banjo that they were only going to pass through Midwest on their way to Lagos and that the people and the governor were not going to be touched. Ojukwu gave a different directive to the Igbo officers, which was hidden from Banjo. That was why the Biafran forces killed, raped and dehumanized a lot of Midwesterners and appointed an Okonkwo to be the sole administrator. Banjo realized that the Biafrans would do what they did to the Midwest to the Yoruba people hence he tarried a bit in Ore to clear his head and realized that he is being played. He reread the terms of the operation to see that an Igbo man would be appointed to govern Lagos and Southwest. What the Biafrans did to Midwest would have been a child's play to what they would have done to the Yoruba people. All these are in books and records for those who can read widely. Please don't try to rewrite history to suit your narratives. |

Mrfeel:Banjo was arrested and tried in a kangaroo court alongside Ifeanjuna for attempting to overthrow the Biafran government . Even your gidgiddy did a topic recently on this issue and justified Banjo's execution on the grounds of plotting to overthrow Ojukwu. Stop with your weak lies. Bwnjo's mission was doomed to fail because he had an undisciplined band of ibo misfits masquerading as an army under his command. |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 12:28pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
Vinod007:You are the one trying to Re-write history to suit whatever you sentiment is, you are not making logical sense , if banjo had the power to delay the journey to Lagos it simply means he was very much in charge of whatever happened in Midwest through out the 1 week he delayed in Midwest, banjo delayed in the Midwest just to negotiate power with Gowon on seat Gowon then lead the federal troops to destroy biafra, Emmanuel Ifeajuna the rest who were executed were all in the plot |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 12:31pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:LoL banjo had an undisciplined band of igbos but he was able to delay them in the Midwest for 1 week? Make it make sense, the road to Lagos was wide open |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by DomPerignon(op): 12:44pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
Mrfeel:And now we have come to the point of defending not only invading and occupying the Midwest but also invading the western region. How did this in anyway help your rogue Biafra? Instead of building up a formidable defense at home, your ojukwu was more interested in invading the Midwest and western region while comitting his ragtag army in terrorising minority people trapped in his rogue Biafra . No wonder there was so much severe resentment towards you ibos in both the liberated coastal areas and among non ibo Midwesterners.. Ojukwu was never interested in Biafra . He wanted the entire southern Nigeria. |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 12:50pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:I'm telling the story like it was , Gowon had a plan capture Enugu the capital of biafra the seat of power and the war will end , they captured nsukka advancing to Enugu, ojukwu came up with same plan , capture the seat of power of Nigeria and the war will end it's simple military tactics, stop being emotional |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by DomPerignon(op): 12:58pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
Mrfeel:Why didn't he take the fight to the north but instead chose to invade and terrorise a population that did him or his people no wrong? So in his blind rage to conquer , Ojukwu saw every other southern people both those trapped in his rogue Biafra and those in the Midwest as collateral damage? Even the behaviour of Biafran soldiers and ibo civilians towards non ibo Midwesterners and their coastal cousins in Biafra shows how ibos back then saw minority people of the south as expendable and their lands as conquered territory. This is why there was very high resentments towards you ibos among southern minorities that it led to abandoned property saga. Continue defending the foolishness and greed of ojukwu |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mrfeel: 3:25pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:You can get emotional about it all you want, two. Countries fought a war Nigeria- biafra , whether it was fought in Midwest of Nigeria or the south west of Nigeria or in biafra it doesn't change the fact that it was a Nigerian Biafran war not a north and east war , whatever crime the federal troops committed or whatever crime the Biafran troops committed it is costumary of any civil war , there is no civil war in history where civilians has not been raped killed or property looted , so all this back and forth ojukwu this ojukwu that , igbo this igbo that you have been shouting for 2 day's now is going no where my friend, heal yourself |

Ttalk:What resources do SW have that will make it, to stand as a country should incase Nigeria as a country cease to exist today? Answer this question since you are quick to lie against Igbos by saying that, they don't have tangible economic assets to stand as country. |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mbanda(m): 6:02pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:What's the essence/motive of this thrashh you call thread? Is it to make Nigerians not to vote for Obi or what? We all know that Ojukwu's soldiers did not invade the Midwest just to terrorise the citizens. |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by Mbanda(m): 6:09pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
helinues:Apart from una usual lies and propaganda such as the awolowo/yoruba coup you lots renamed "Igbo coup", what else do you have to expose? |

Mbanda:Ojukwus soldiers were sharing flowers and money in the Midwest. Blowing kisses as they went through |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by chiagozien(m): 7:07pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
DomPerignon:So Ojukwu should have supervised killing of none Easterners same way Gowon and awolowo supervised killing of innocent Easterners in west and north? Telling none Easterners to return to their region to avoid killed is now crime, but watching Easterners killed is normal. Yorubas logics sef. |
| Re: Why Did Ojukwu Expel Non Ibo Midwesterners Out Of The Eastern Region,? by chiagozien(m): 7:13pm On Sep 06, 2025 |
SeeWahala:Those hater are known for changing narrative. Maybe Ojukwu should have supervised killing of innocent none Easterners just like awolowo and Gowon watch as innocent Easterners in west and north were murdered. Tell someone go home for his safety is now a criminal. |
