shukuokukobambi: What you are saying above is not the same thing. There is a difference between imminent defeat and capture and retreat. During a battle or war, if a Soldier dicorvers that the situation cannot be helped any more, the Soldier has a duty to escape since the Soldier staying back to die is only to benefit of his enemy. Ojukwu had fought for 3 years and could no longer hold out. If Ojukwu had stayed back to surrender, he would have either been shot or put on trial for high treason and shot by firing squad. Either way, he was a dead man. So it makes no sense for Ojukwu to stay back to be killed for the benefit of Gowon. He did the smart thing and left, handing over to Effiong who would conduct the surrender. Only a foolish soldier will stay back to die in a hopeless situation when he has a way to escape. 1 Like |

ProWalker: No thats not what Im saying. Biafran soldiers fought bravely but nobody would expect a Biafran soldier to stay back and die in a hopeless situation when there is a way to escape. However, in the end when the center could not hold, Ojukwu left which paved the way for Effiong to announce surrender. There would have been no point for Ojukwu to stay back and die when the end was already in sight. That would have been foolish of Ojukwu. Only Gowon would have benefited with Ojukwu's death |

Re: Throwback Video..."Ojukwu Is A Coward" - General Yakubu Gowon by ProWalker: 5:53pm On Oct 06, 2017 |
gidgiddy:We are saying the same thing, other Biafran soldiers including Effiong too should have bolted away when confronted with uncertainty. All you are saying is that Effiong was foolish not to have bolted away as the second in command since whatever fate that awaits Ojukwu awaits him too Please don’t let Effiong people think that Ojukwu put their own in danger so that he could escape Ojukwu was a coward ..simple 6 Likes |

ProWalker: No you dont understand. Ojukwu was the embodiment of Biafra, he was the one they really wanted to get their hands on. Effiong was no 2 man and was not a significant catch. The big fish was Ojukwu, Effiong was never in harms way. |

shukuokukobambi: A people who fought the military might of Nigeria, Britain and Russia for 3 years? No other tribe can do it in Nigeria, maybe Ijaws. The brave ones are those who can stand fight for their freedom, wether win or lose. The real cowards are those who say 'one Nigeria' and submit to Hausa/Fulani slavery because they have no fight in them |

gidgiddy: Why didn't you add Canada, Germany and Iran join? Or they didn't also send soldiers to join the massacres? You could have held out some more now. 3million deaths obviously was chicken figure to such 'brave' ones The brave ones are those who can stand fight for their freedom, wether win or lose. The real cowards are those who say 'one Nigeria' and submit to Hausa/Fulani slavery because they have no fight in them One minute you praise those who fight to the death. Another minute you praise ojukwu who ran away. Make up your mind my dear keyboard warrior. Must I stupidly waste 3million souls like ojukwu then run away before you know I have a fight in me? @ the bold, cowards like Ohaneze ndi Igbo. Cowards like ojukwu who submitted to that slavery and contested 3 times and lost in the same slavery Cowards like all the SE governors and ekweremmadu who proscribed ipob under threats from buhari. Cowards like all the ipob who swam isiala ngwa muddy pool under Hausa koboko and are now afraid to even fly any Biafra flag again Indeed cowards like the northern Igbo who created a new tribe just to be eligible to keep staying with the Fulani killers up north 5 Likes |
