This is very interesting but a question that I have not gotten any satisfactory answer for till today is, why was Ojukwu rejected by the Igbos when he ran for presidency in 1999? Not that he lost the elction is my concern but why did he fail to win the Igbo votes?

Ojukwu was rigged out. the whole Igbo voted for him. APGA his party never lost any election in the East but the power of incumbency keep rigging him out fro the Federal. The fear of Ojukwu in government was a problem to non Igbos

Ojukwu was never rejected.

He is a coward. He scamped

he is our hero, deal with it.

Its left for you to have a sensible mind about this man Ojukwu and what really triggered the Nigeria Civil War, that have wasted many igbos lives by putting them on a line. I am Yoruba and today, I decided to re-read about this Biafra war and why the Nigeria government did not want igbos to leave, because I am tired of Igbo cries and I want Nigeria to break up as well. I went on Wikipedia and to what I can gather about the causes of the war, was that Ojukwu doesnot like the Northerners in Power and he wants the igbos to be charge, due to the natural resource "Oil" is in the Eastern Region. The igbos were collecting Royalties from the Oil production even before the war. Most countries that supported Nigeria Govt. during war, was because of their Nations' interest. Uk was supporting Nigeria Govt cos of their Shell Company, USA was partially supporting Nigeria Govt cos of their Investments in Nigeria, Isreal was supporting Biafra cos of their nations Interest as well. Take a good look at these nations supporting each party, Do you think they give a fkkk about Africans, if they have nothing to gain from us?.( tell me about other Africa civil war and what Europe country give a fkkk, if they have nothing to offer to the Europeans?) Biafra claim they lost due to Starvation, will you feed your opponent when you are fighting, but Biafra refuse to acknowledge the fact that they went to war with less ammunition. Biafra have continue to blame Awolowo for their failure and forget the power of propaganda. We should be more focus on Ojukwu, who rushed the Biafra youths to war without better plan, We should also remember Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi, who is power hungry as Ojukwu and he also betrayed his fellow Biafrians, We should talk about how Ojukwu released Banjo to fight his own people. To me, I believe Ojukwu should have been held accountable when he was alive for leading Biafria to war when they are not fully ready, I believe the causes of the war should be more focused on and if Biafra want to create their nation, they should do it in a diplomatic way. I am not been biased in anyway, just according to what I could gather online about the causes of the civil war.

But you have to discuss the July coup and the pogrom and the effects on a young Nation. There was the Aburi accords which the federal government at that time rescinded unilaterally

The only gud tin Bianca did was to marry Ojukwu the Hero

nwadiuko1:
wait oo did awolowo really take rat poison?

Looooooooooooooooooooool!!!!!!!!!! if u ask me, na who I go ask

Let em hate -the more we grow!!!



Ojukwu shall forever remain a HERO!!!



Shey na Biafra



Oga eme ha vuuum na anya!!!...





One Nigeria is just a name to be forgotten soon... maybe this year or the ones ahead, but surely it ain't gonna be forever!!!

So you read about the history of how the war started but skipped the part where an estimated 40,000 easterners including men,women and children were butchered all over Nigeria especially in the north? How convenient. That's why you have the luxury of criticising Ojukwu.

AWOLowo who allegedly committed suicide (by taking rat poison, as alluded to by many) was and still remains the epitome of cowardice. Real men make decissions and live with the consequences whether positive or negative!! That okpolo-eyed "man" no get liver at all. Loool!

He is the coward general of the federation, the only coward man to ever run away from battle field dressed like a perfect ash.ewo with gele. The ediot is rotting in hell now. Respect to Effiong, Achuzua,Banjo,Ifeajuna and other gallant biafra soldier not this child mo.lester.

A coward would have ran away when d first gunshot was fired by d invading Nigerian forces at Gakem, ojukwu stood n defended his land.

It is on record that Nigerian army lost more soldiers than ill equipped biafran soldiers, a coward couldn't have killed more equipped soldiers. A case of one brave lion commanding several lambs.

A coward couldn't have fought gallantly for 3 years under heavy blockade.


The real coward is AWOLO-AWO THE TOAD EYE FOOL,THAT HIS EWEDU MOUTH WAS LEAKING ABOUT GOING IF BIAFRA GO, ONLY TO CHICKEN OUT WHEN HE SAW HAUSA SOLDIERS


THE DEFINITION OF COWARD IS AWOLOWOISM. MEANING DRINKING OTAPIAPIA TO DIE AFTER PLOTTING A COUP N NOT MAN ENOUGH TO STAND TRIAL.

Wisdom is profitable to direct.
For he that fights and runs away, may live to fight another day.

So Yorubas no be coward be dat. I have been trying to get your definition of cowardice because you guys have confused my reasoning over time. So who ever runs from a fight is the brave one and the one that stays is the coward. Now I get it. Clap for yourself

@XTERVAGANZA, I must have hit a raw nerve. We know who you are, FFK because
1) your obsession with Bianca is something you cannot conceal in your posts, and your IP address iscthe same as CRAMJONES and all those I have listed here. Any good computer technician can verify this
Also, you are a silly and immature d1ckhead who needs better education and intelligence otherwise you would not be heading for prison for sloppy theiving and corrupt practices.

I only thought yeebos are stoopid, never knew your tribe breeds r €tards like yours

There you go showing what you are wired with. Hate. Hate. Hate. The thing about hate is that no prophet or Imam can cure you.

What do you seek to achieve in this rubbish you posted above. I guess to turn this thread into a tribal war. Guy you are more than this. Grow up beyond your age abd size.

What is wrong If Igbos have chosen him as their Hero. Do you chose heros for people. Every great leader i know in History has great mistakes following them to the grave.

U get time to follow pikin wey dem born after abacha regime dey talk...

I have heard that Awolowo killed himself. But I took as a joke. Please are you sure this guy killed himself?

AWOLOWO WAS BRAINWASHED AND RAPED BY THE FULANIS.


THEY PROMISED HIM THE PRESIDENCY BUT UNFORTUNATELY.,HE WAS THE BEST PRESIDENT NIGERIA NEVER HAD.


OUT OF DEPRESSION AND FRUSTRATION, HE CHOOSE THE EASIER WAY OUT.


AND GUESS WHAT..??


UR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE...HE TOOK RATAKI TO END HIS SHORT AND MISERABLE LIFE.

hairyanus:
I took time today to research about this man and why many Igbos adore him...My interest was basically because i have recently been reading biographies and Nigerian political history.
Again, i am married to an Igbo woman i love dearly and despite being born long after the war considers this man Ojukwu a Hero.

I found out from various books written about him that he was a typical Igbo man who will not bow to any man. He also hated injustice and will not be silent when its before his eyes.

I was also astonished to discover that his father Loius was among the top 3 Richest Nigerians at the time. So what will make this man abandon such wealth, join the military and subsequently go to war. There has to be more.

I discovered that his mentors had an overwhelming influence on him while he was in Harvard.

His contemporaries could not handle his intelligence and arrogance.

The gradual regionalization of political parties that started as national parties painted a picture that Nigeria is not one but a British creation. AG was purely a western party, NCNC was Eastern by all ramifications. NPC was more northern like others accross the niger..Ojukwu, though being in the army saw a clear case of struggle for dominance and supremacy originating from the regions to the centre.
The political firmament of Nigeria took off with a picture of regional struggle for dominance and supremacy..
Ojukwu observed and began to plot. I began to research on how Ojukwu was able to establish the Biafran pound in 3 years and traded globally with it. Where was it printed, who designed it and more?..i am a curious researcher of history when am bored...permit me to inform you that the first batch of the Biafran pounds was printed and brought into Biafra before Ojukwu declared secession.

To be continued, i am typing with my phone and tired.

When did it become a virture to be arrogant?

Major Nzoewu the bold were actually murdered by Ojukwu because he considered them as a serious threat to his alpha status among Igbo folks then!

About time, we put to rest the suicide theme/myth surrounding Awo's dead.

World over, throughout civilization from the ancient still now, most leaders worthy of note, will rather commit suicide than be capture by their adversaries; courageous leaders don't surrender or run from battle like Ojukwu did, but will rather die with their followers or die alone.

Many ancient kings falled on their own swords when cornered by their enemies in battles ( because it is considered more honourable to die than go into captivity), or will you call Hitler a coward (thou you may tag him a lunatic) because he chosen not to surrender to allie force......?

Disgusting monkey!!! Do you have a hero like him in your tribe?

oneeast:
Ikemba Nnewi was the first graduate to join the NA. He was the first African to attend the prestigious Oxford University.

Ikemba shall be remembered forever for being among the greatest Africans. What he saw 40yrs ago is what people are crying about today. He fought a just war to send a message to the oppressors. UN has seen through what he fought for and have invited Biafran leaders.

Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu the man that saw tomorrow.

He did not see 10% of what Fela saw.
