Im happy Gowon lived long enough to see what the 'one Nigeria' he fought for had become today. Gowon cant sleep in his own local government in Plateau State today, the place has been overrun by banditry. Plateau State has become a killing field

Gowon went to Aburi, Ghana, reached an agreement with Ojukwu. Swore in front of the Press, and the then President of Ghana, General Joe Ankrah, that he would abide by what was agreed

Then Gowon returned to Nigeria and violated everything that was agreed at Aburi with Decree 14. Who can blame Ojukwu for then declaring Biafra even though it led to war?

Ojukwu tried to prevent war, he took the risk of going to Ghana where the Ankrah could have connived with Gowon and killed or arrested him. But he took the risk to prevent war. Aburi was the final straw that broke the camels back

Its very unfortunate that Gowon decided not abide with what was agreed

It has remained the story of Nigeria where political leaders promises only to blatantly disregard it just like Gowon did

General Gowon did what he had to do. Granting states to the minorities can't be faulted and it was supported by the majority of Nigerians especially those who were given the states. The owners of the new states were very happy and in actual fact that is what mattered most. The governor's of the new states were indigenes of those states and at a point General Gowon agreed to regional armies etc but Colonel Ojukwu refused. If you think it was worth it to go to war over state creation, that is your prerogative. After that, he had options, he could have secured the East and faced the direction he was being attacked from. The federals were running out of ammunition too not that it was easy for them and if Biafra maintained control over PH, Bonny and Calabar then it may have been possible for them to win the war. Pakistan seceded successfully from India so it was not something impossible. Biafra instead opened another warfront to the west despite knowing that the two regions to the west had announced they will not allow an invasion of Biafra from their land and this resulted into a marine invasion of Biafra by the 3 marine commando that set sail from Lagos and that was the main reason Biafra lost. Who will win or lose was not determined from the beginning. Creating states was the right move by General Gowon because you would have done the same in his shoes. If I were Colonel Ojukwu I would have restrained myself from trying to take Lagos

Gowon did what he had to do? He created states without referendum? If Gowon actually cared about what Nigerians wanted he would have conducted elections at the earliest possible date and left office. It is for civilians to create states democratically, not for military officers to create them by decree.

It is supporting the wrong thing that made Nigeria the mess it is today. Gowon went on to violate Aburi agreement, create states, fight civil war, kill millions

Where is your Nigeria today?

Gowon created Plateau State. Ask Gowon if he can go to to places like Bassa, Bokkos, Riyom, Barkin Lardi and many LGA's areas of Plateau State where people are being massacred daily? Abi it was all about state creation?

You are saying what Colonel Ojukwu should have said in 1967 instead of going to war and I believe if he had said what you are now saying then General Gowon would have agreed or don't you think so? Words can do things that firearms would not be able to achieve. Why didn't Colonel Ojukwu ask for a referendum? Or a return to democracy?

Ready2speak:
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Do you know why I laughed?
It's becos suppositions are not facts.
I don't know how old you are but so many of the books you guys read about Ojukwu are actually not exactly as you people were led to believe.

First, show me a rich family in Nigeria, pre colonialism & post colonialism that did not have anything to do with the Rothschilds East, West, North & South. They traded in slaves, commodities, gin, gun powder, etc. The Dantatas, Odumegwu's, the Awolowo's, the Iburus, etc. The Rothschilds own UAC with its conglomerate, Standard Bank, LBG,,,which includes insurance, shipping, etc, before talking about the Rothschilds banks. They sent Cecil Rhodes to south Africa and the rest is history. They own the diamond trade, oil and gas, just name it. The Rockefellers are an extension of that octopus. They own standard Oil group and a host of others worldwide. So bringing that angle into the discuss is out of it.

We all knew the role the British played with the active participation of the crown which crown is a puppet of the Rothschilds. As the meeting was going on at Aburi, agents of the British government was giving them the details of the negotiations . The British embassy in Ghana was privy to the agreement and a cable was sent to their home government who instructed their embassy in Lagos through the high commissioner to reach Gowon to renege. They used Philip Asiodu and Paul Unongo to play the ethnic minority card. All these happened through the British embassy in Lagos.
Permit me to ask you, how will Ojukwu fund a war when the hastily declared Biafra lacks recognition from the countries that matter? Do you think that arms supply from the black market is enough to fight a war? See my dear, leave propaganda alone. The odds were against Biafra from the onset but the young men were more idealistic than realistic.

Awolowo did not implement a policy that made Biafra lose the war as his policy targeted civilians. In fact that policy attracted more sympathy to Biafra as the images of children suffering from kwashiorkor and looking like sticks made headlines allover the western press. In fact the government of Harold Wilson lost election as a result. Leave the western Nigeria press that exalted Awolowo to the status of a god. They lie like Satan.

Something hilarious in your comment is the purported annexation of the Midwest. This comment alone, shows you lack basic understanding of the Midwest itself. The key actors in the coup, where we're they from? Igbo land where did it start & where did it end? We are talking about Biafra territory which includes other ethnic nationalities & not just Igbo. So to bring that into the discuss is really not very smart.
I don't want to go into the other things you touched as they are irrelevant to the talking point.

Gowon has written his book, hope we will read Ojukwu's memoirs very soon though he has gone, I strongly believe he has put some things down being a man that studied history to master's level. Above all my dear, after over 50 years, we are still stuck at the same point without making progress. In fact we have greatly retrograssed. How do we move forward in the world development indicators?

That should be the concern.
Thank you.

I appreciate your insight to my comment. However we seem to be speaking from the same place when it comes to Ojukwu himself as it appears. I hinted that it is quite possible he has a deal with the Rothschilds giving the Rothschild influence as at then, and also giving the level of affluent the Ojukwu family has then. Being one of the richest families in the country allows and will always get you an introduction, invitation, entry or sometimes even seat at the table of some higher level society, government, family or organization. But I suppose you didn't read that right. As for why they Biafra was more idealistic than being realistic that is for their general to own up to. But it was apparently believed they had the man power, and the resources to declare themselves a sovereign nation and fought bravely for that ethos for solid 3 years. That is not just about being naive or being idealistic, it was a reasonable campaign but they lost to an unforseen circumstances.

Moving forward, my comment was my own personal interpretation based on the information I am privy to regarding the war, the Awolowo's participations and the motivation of the Yorubas for choosing to align with the Nigerian Government instead of agreeing with the already in place development to break up the country then as proposed by Ojukwu. Your information may be of or from public forums, public archives or bulletins but mine are based on letters that still exist in a major traditional ruling house archives which I happened to be privy to. These correspondence includes, not just issues about General Ojukwu, the roles and responsibilities of the Yorubas and extensively also the foreign bodies as well and their interest.

It was clear the English, wanted Nigeria to remain a country, it was clear France wanted to weaken the English influence in the western Africa. And to even point it out clearly, they were not majorly participants in particular but mere advisory body and support for their interest. The decision still rest on the Nigerian government. They weren't forcing their opinions on Gowon and it's government, but majorly offered suggestions and gave the benefits of those suggestions. It's as simple as that.

In conclusion like I said, my comment is my own interpretation based on the account that I am privy to and not public information. As far as many people can tell, it wasn't about Oyibo people ruling Nigeria that motivated the Yorubas, it was simply the fear of Ibo dominance. All those international policy's doesn't really count. The Yorubas have been at war for long, from the days of the Dahomey, to the time of Alimi, with major turmoils with the traditional ruling houses before peace came to Lagos, through all these period it was made clear the Yorubas had to in some ways secede land or power and that should not be allowed to happen or something like that repeating itself and least of all to Ibos. The documents in the archives goes way back to those time, and I am saying that was what prompted the actions of Awolowo.
If Awolowo had openly declared then the Oduduwa Tribe/Western Region is also abandoning the Nigerian project, do you think all those English puppeteers and their puppets would have mattered? Not one bit my dear brethren. As always, they would accessed their pros and cons and go along with whichever has the major benefit and lesser risk.

As you did correctly point out, the pictures from the effect of those Hunger and Starvation made the international body sympathetic to the Biafran people, but you are forgetting that is not objective, the objective was to weaken Biafra, and that is through any means necessary. The international community sympathy and someone else loosing election was just a consequence of that decision..the effect and not the cause itself.

While we may have different opinion regarding the mid west, I am of the impression they were better placed Nationally then than they were now.. Splitting Bendel was not just a minor blow, it was a decisive one.

In conclusion though, I do agree the country has in many ways regressed, and the way forward seems a little bleak at the moment, but like the forefathers who have gone before us, and the present generation combined with the level of international exposure and inclusiveness we have on the world stage now, however bleak it may seem, Nigeria has a bright future even though it may still be hard to see at the moment.

Thank you for your contribution.
I appreciate you taking the time.

On what legal basis did Orizu hand over power to Ironsi?

Why did Orizu as acting President not swear in the Deputy PM despite having full powers to do so under his acting capacity?

Orizu had informed a group of NPC MPs led by the young Shagari who had come to Orizu demanding he do the needful and swear in the deputy PM , that he (Orizu) will wait and consult with Zik before doing what he ought to .

In another instance , Shagari stated that on another visit to the then inspector general of Police's office for briefing on the murders that had occured on Jan 15, he met Ironsi alongside Orizu and was told by Ironsi blankly and sternly that there will be a military take over whether he likes it or not.

The NPC MPs were not deterred and held their sessions and meetings in private residences in Lagos and on every occasion they had converged to discus on their next line of action, Ironsi will arrive with a team of heavily armed soldiers and surround the building.

Shagari had confronted Ironsi on why he was stalking them with Ironsi claiming he was there to personally provide security for the gathering.

It was then no surprise to hear Orizu live on air handing powers to Ironsi later that day and from where Ironsi banned all political gatherings and parties.

Zik welcomed the declaration by Orizu to hand power to Ironsi in a BBC interview

Now note that Zik and his NCNC were the junior partners in the coalition govt headed by the NPC. So how will a junior partner take a decision without their senior counterpart to hand power illegally to the military headed by Ironsi?

Note that it was this same Ironsi being appointed as the head of the army that caused the constitutional crisis in 1964.

You have been noticed Mr., you can now go play with your mates.

If the Awo’s had anything to do with the Rothschild, how come Awo proposed what they hate to hear most - secession clause to be added into Nigeria constitution? After Pa Awo proposed that clause, he came enemy of the Jewish British… He was rushly sent to prison and then they annexed some part of the western region, just to reduce his influence… You mentioned something about Mid-west… Can you expatriate why you believe differently?

As for Awo’s policy… Before Pa Awo’s policy, all the foods Nigeria was sending to Biafra, it was Ojukwu and his goons that are cornering them, including their soldiers. So, there was already hunger in Biafra even before Gowon met with Pa Awo to seek his advice. In that war, none of Ojukwu’s family, his goons and their families died of hunger..

Pa Awo’s was not exalted to status to god by press, instead, it was his work & the things he did that elevated him up. You can’t start a free education, without you becoming one of the most significant human..

Ojukwu fed you with Propaganda lies through out the War

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTizQJ29wsI?si=aGXoVQUm-uvDZJNW

Nice video.

Ojukwu kicked against Decree 8 that was meant to address what they had discussed and agreed upon in Abure for the inclusion of the following :

1. A return to regional govts. Ojukwu preferred that the status quo under Ironsi centralised powers be continued.

2. Ojukwu rejected the decentralisation of military commands in place of regional armies that were meant to strengthen regional autonomy than even what was the case as at independence

From the above you can see that Ojukwu had the full intention of maintaining a powerful central govt with the ambition of seizing power for himself.

Ojukwu's objection to regional armies showed that he intended to sweep across the south without resistance to which he did by ordering the invasion and annexation of the then neutral Midwest region and from there launching an invasion into Western Nigeria

There was no talk of seccesion clause on Abure and if there ever was , Ojukwu who had recently brutally put down the secessionist movement led by Adaka Borp would have been the last to agree to it being included

But Ojukwu shamelessly claimed that the absence of a seccesion clause and delay by a mere 2 weeks in ratifying the accord into a decree was why he rejected same Decree 8 and went about lying to his own people that Gowon had renegaded on what they agreed in Abure.

May Ojukwu , Achebe , Zik continue to rot in hell for eternity

Ready2speak:
You have been noticed Mr., you can now go play with your mates.

How you guys shamelessly accuse Gowon of abolishing regions where Ironsi decree 1 is there for you to see only exposes how you guys can never be reasoned with.

Same Decree 8 passes by Gowon abrogated Ironsi's useless decree 1 and retuned us back to regions but this time with more autonomy by including regional armies.

But you liars will see plain truth and continue with the lies the likes of Ojukwu and Achieve have been feeding you

You have been spewing useless conjectures that you dreamt up in your head to try and exonerate your Rothschild masters

Why is it so important for you guys to deny that the Rothschild family via their branches in London (Victor Rothschild ) and the other in Paris, France were the ones who instigated the coup and benefit from the war that ensured and got juicy oil deals secured afterwards through their Shell BP?

Continue living in denial but the truth is the Rothschild satanic family are the ones who got Zik and co to stage that coup and later the Buffon ojukwu to embark on a lost war.

Of course you will always want to downplay your eternal slave masters role in seeing to the civil war .

A simple Google on Nigeria's colonial flag will return an image with a Rothschild satanic seal aka star of remphan in our flag which will later be adopted as part of the modern state of Israel's flag.

Coins from that era were issued by same Rothschild with the same seal

And you can also see the NY Time article by one of your own who wrote about her grandfather being a major slaver and who carried a license to supply Rothschild plantations in South America with slaves from ibo land as late as 1910s despite there been a ban on global slave trade decades earlier.

You guys keep saying Nigeria is a British contraption meant to benefit British economic and financial interests...

Well that Britain is the Rothschild family who also own the deed to Palestine .

Gowon is an old man in his 90's, one of the last major players of the civil war still alive. Before Gowon joins his ancestors, let him answer one question:

Why did you go all the way to Aburi, Ghana, to reach an agreement with Ojukwu, that was meant to prevent war, only to come back to Nigeria and break the agreement with Decree 14, which then led to war?

Nigeria had something perfect than Aburi accord,why did ojukwu and his brothers abolished it?


You people will be talking as if Nigeria history started with Aburi

So you just want to spew your handed down regurgitated Biafra war propaganda and expect us not to counter your lies

Gowon is decieving and fooling himself trying to rewrite history.

Gowon will never be free from God's judgement for the blood of innocent Igbo people that he killed during the civil war.

Gowon 'LET MY PEOPLE GO', and gowon refused instead he slaughtered Igbos and is here talking rubbish.

Thank God we have reunited with the north and moving towards a new and better Nigeria, were people like gowon will not forment trouble again.

Why did you go all the way to Aburi, Ghana, to reach an agreement with Ojukwu, that was meant to prevent war, only to come back to Nigeria and break the agreement with Decree 14, which then led to war?

First comment on how Ochukwu carried your common inheritance without consulting your forefathers to beg France. If that wealth had been distributed and used judiciously, your fore father's would have gotten something tangible that would have impacted you positively to the extent of not minding KANU and ekpa Biafra. So, KANU that used your donation to buy Fendi learnt it from his elder Biafra lord and ekpa with is oil and gas minister that used your money for security guard in foreign land learnt from someone too. Wonder shall never end!

Make Una look to build the future. This constant need to be back facing is detrimental to all.

Macphenson:
This foolish old man doesn't care about the daily massacre of his people by those he supported during the civil war.

The south South and Ambazonia (now part of Cameroun) said them no want go with the south east and nobody invited them to be part of the discussion and una say me chi onu to them.

Time to build the future as una even start to call una self jews. Want to emigrate to Jerusalem?

It’s so exhausting to keep looking back with all the lies. Most people want peace with all men.

Is he building the future by the nonsense he is writing at this point in time?
What's the essence of this rubbish now and kindly explain to me how what he wrote is building the future.

Also if building the future means not calling out the evil in this country we are not interested. The more reason there is a consistent clamour for referendum.

But Bakassi wasn't Ojukwu or Ibo to begin with

General Gowon did what he had to do. Granting states to the minorities can't be faulted and it was supported by the majority of Nigerians especially those who were given the states. The owners of the new states were very happy and in actual fact that is what mattered most. The governor's of the new states were indigenes of those states and at a point General Gowon agreed to regional armies etc but Colonel Ojukwu refused. If you think it was worth it to go to war over state creation, that is your prerogative. After that, he had options, he could have secured the East and faced the direction he was being attacked from. The federals were running out of ammunition too not that it was easy for them and if Biafra maintained control over PH, Bonny and Calabar then it may have been possible for them to win the war. Pakistan seceded successfully from India so it was not something impossible. Biafra instead opened another warfront to the west despite knowing that the two regions to the west had announced they will not allow an invasion of Biafra from their land and this resulted into a marine invasion of Biafra by the 3 marine commando that set sail from Lagos and that was the main reason Biafra lost. Who will win or lose was not determined from the beginning. Creating states was the right move by General Gowon because you would have done the same in his shoes. If I were Colonel Ojukwu I would have restrained myself from trying to take Lagos

They prefer to Kpai than live without Lagos in their lives

Nobody from any region can do it alone or has ever been able to do it alone. No amount of bullying or gaslighting can do it for anyone.

Yoruba is una only pathway to the Presidency so continue to abuse and disrespect and see the self fulfilling prophecy play out.
