1941
Whitehall, London

So the Germans were gaining the upper hand against the allied forces.Territory after territory was falling and personnel losses were at an all time high.
Moral was sinking with every announcement of a vessel sunk in the seas by the German U boats.
What do do?

Some one remembered that in one of the colonies,Nigeria to be precise, was one of the richest and most industrious men to ever walk the Planet.
Sir Loius Ojukwu,the Enterprising Ibo Mogul ,whose wealth was legendary. It was said that he ate with golden spoons and never used the same spoons twice.After each meal he threw them away.
He had dozens of powerful trucks ,a commodity which was in short supply and would take weeks to assemble.The Germans knew this and had targetted the assembly plants in their bombing raids. What to do? Perhaps word could be sent to Sir Ojukwu...........Maybe he could be persuaded to save the British from sure defeat at the hands of the Germans................

Winston Churchill the British Prime Minister was desperate. The British Exchequer was broke and had no money to offer Sir Ojukwu for his trucks. Even if it did there was no guarantee he would agree to release them. What might Sir Ojukwu want in return. Churchill was agonizing over these thoughts when the phone rang

MI6 was on the phone they had managed to track down Sir Ojukwu to the Bahamas where he was holidaying on his yacht.
Would the Prime Minister agree for contact to me made with the business mogul
"Of course" Winston declared without hesitation. And so it came to be that the Prime Minister of what was the last and probably greatest Empire known to man dispatched his finest secret agents to get a concession from the Eboe Tycoon,Sir Ojukwu to permit the immediate redeployment of his formidable fleet of trucks to the war effort.What did he get in return? This of course ,was classified information at the time and was known only to those with the highest security clearance.
Recently these documents have been declassified and we can confidently reveal..............

Re: How Ojukwu's Father,Sir Ojukwu, Helped Defeat Germany In World War 2 by omonnakoda(op):
The British courted Ojukwu like a desperate groom on bended knee. The special agents arrived the Bahamas and set to work immediately.An appointment was arranged and it was made clear they were were special envoys of of King George the VI bearing a personal message for Ojukwu.
It pleased his Majesty to inquire about Ojukwu's health. Did he find the weather in the Bahamas to his liking and so on. Of course the British Navy would guarantee his safety and security in the Caribbean sea and so on ............
The legendary British obsequiousness was at work for the next 15 minutes and Ojukwu's Eboe ego was suitably massaged. The King would like to host him to tea and sandwiches at Buckingham Palace as soon as the war was over.......and thus the delicate subject of the war was introduced almost apologetically in a way only the British can manage

The British had come prepared for their meeting. They knew from centuries of experience of coastal trading in the Niger Delta that "big Men" had to be presented with befitting gifts to "oil" any negotiations

They came with two large trunks out of which first came a dozen bottles of the finest 21 year aged Glenfiddich Scotch Whisky and craftily insisted on a toast to the health of Ojukwu ,Another to the health of King George and then perhaps another to the men fighting the war but Ojukwu was not having any of that. The old fox was wise to some of the British and after the second toast politely smiled and declined "Thank you Thank you"

Next out of the trunk came a selection of Baby hats and father Christmas hats of cashmere wool.

Ojukwu found the hats very fascinating . The Chritmas hats particularly because of the little circular decorative mirrors.
Macaulay, the envoy, a Scotsman from Kilmarnock found them quite tacky but quickly sensed they were a hit with the Eboe chief. " These come in many colors" he offered .
"You have them plenty" Ojukwu inquired mildly. Macaulay smiled his smooth oily smile. Years of dealing with Eboes had equipped him to deal with questions just like these.
"Oh no. we have the cloth in many colors but the hats with mirrors they are very special. If we made them in other colors they would be a limited edition just for you sir" He bowed.

This of course what music to Ojukwu's ears ,he could imagine his triumphs at various ceremonies back in Nnewi with his exclusive Limited Edition hats. He smiled for the first time at Macaulay and Macaulay relaxed.

Im a proud owner of the book. The British authorities did ask Sir Louis Ojukwu for the use of his fleet of Trucks at aid the second World war effort and he agreed. After the war ended in 1945, the British did not forget Sir Ojukwus sacrifice. They gave him a KBE (Knight of the British Empire) and pushed several post war contracts his way. Sir Louis became even richer as a result of the post world war boom. A great man he was.
