Exile? Really? More like a vacation

I don't comment twice in a day ! Thank You

Dfire:
a general who tried to destroy the country you're making sense

The world doesn't work according to ur time table. Pls how old are u?

Ojukwu didn't try to destroy Nigeria, rather it was the northerners tried very hard to destroy Nigeria.

Ojukwu didn't start the civil war in nigeria, The pogrom that took the life of over 30,000 igbos across Nigeria led to the 1967 civil war. Ojukwu simply did what every other leader would do on the face of blood letting of igbos that lasted for 10 months.

Pls stop disgracing ur self.

Dfire is just a mentally challenged semi illiterate seeking for attention. See how the piece of turd is making a grand fool of himself on this thread. My curse to him is that when he dies in some stinking gutter, maggots and vultures will consume his rotting flesh. May his corpse never receive the sanctity of a burial.

Igbos:
i think it's bcuz he surrendered,denounce biafra and was pardoned by the nigerian government..so his honored was restored

Your head is very correct my brother, I as we think its cos he openly denounced biafra n said it ceases to exist n back then general gowon said it was victory for common sense n no victor no vanquish

Are you angry that yout bu.rial will be like that of dog?

hmmm...i dont know o but if you ask me, na who i go ask?

Dfire:
The more reason why they should spit at his grave, are you kidding me millions of people died because of him, the amnesty was more than enough, but a befitting burial? They just crossed the line of logic

When you dig beyond bias and bigotry, you will find the answer. Until then, wallow in your ignorance. Afterall, ignorance is bliss.

Dfire:
typical ipobian response Ojukwu has always been a Nigerian can't you see that he was ordered by Gowon to start the Biafra war he was very good he pretended to defend you while all he did was give Nigeria a very good opportunity to finish you, that's why he was granted amnesty that's why they buried him with military honors a good soldier who followed orders.... There you happy now

So you know he was ordered by gowon to start war, you also know that he pretended to have loved us and thats why he was hiven amnesty and state burial. Why then have you come to display your backwardness here by asking silly question? As someone rightly said, you're a paid agent to distract people from your god buhari's incompentencies and wickedness. Continue fooling yourself and next thing, you will vote for a buahri and suffering continues. FYI, gowon is gnashing jis teeth now because karma has come, buhari is reaping his already in form of national disgrace and embarrassment. Very soon, you will start reaping your own for your hatred for igbos.

Just ignore somethings here, this thread is truly ironic see how igbos are complimenting the Nigeria Government good job Dfire I don't think I've seen people say so much good about Nigeria than today

Such a divisive and hate fueling topic that should have never been created in the first place.
Nigerians had better been much more worried about the fate of the country as it stands at the moment with the powers that be showing no signs of hope, if they truely what hurts them most.

Hehehe....I don talk say I no go laugh today, but ehm....

General Ojukwu deserved state burial and more. Quote me anywhere.

he was a LT Col

zendy:


Before you start this sort of thread, you should go and read more of Nigeria's history, particularly that of Ojukwu. Who told you that Ojukwu hated Nigeria? Ojukwu was only fighting to defend his people against Hausa-Fulani hegemony. Ojukwu did all he could to keep Nigeria one and avoid war. He even went to Ghana to sign an agreement so that there would be peace. However, the Northern government of Gowon decided not to keep to the agreement signed in Ghana and Ojukwu was left with no choice but to declare the independence of his people and fight for freedom.

Ojukwu was never the problem, Nigeria was always the problem. [b][/b]Mandela was once regarded as the number one terrorist of south Africa. But history later vindicted him and he was also given a state burial

That's treason if you don't know and talk about Nelson Mandela why can't he did the same in south Africa?

LZAA:

shows how little u know of history
first of ojukwu did nor start any war.
if u have read books u would know that after the north killed senslessly and were forced to stay in nigeria by the brits and northern civil servants the soldiers(murtala mohammed who was for secession said so himself)knew that war was inevitable

2 failure to implement the aburi accord and growing anger amongst igbos pushed ojukwu who was mandated by his people to secede
ojukwu NEVER declared biafra on his own

3 Ojukwu was Eastern region governor at the time
pretty sure that gets u a state burial
so next time research
btw ojukwu died years ago why not focus on the present?

Pls stop rewriting history or better still next time you try and put from your own perspectives

Bc he respected d Aburi Accord's agreement

Dfire:
All this one is just trade language, he led a war for three years millions of people died even those in asaba who tried to surrender were dealt with but Ojukwu the LEADER granted immediate amnesty okay we can tolerate that but buried with military honors there were Biafran ex soldiers at that funeral they didn't even touch the coffin and all that talk about Mandela this is Nigeria not South Africa you can't kill the pawn and spare the king

Zombie
The Easterners told Nigerian government that he must be honored, if the Nigerian government/soldiers don't honor him as their own then Biafrans/MOSSOB will do it.

Nigeria don't want to see that happened so they took it

Because he was a soldier, and it looked like he repented

how do you manage to know things in school, before he led the war what happened to thousand of Igbo that was massacred in the north..

We r waiting for ur own to see. It might even have been better for Nigeria to split then

Treason is subjective. What you think is treason today may be seen as injustice tomorow.

Nnamdi Azikiwe was once arrested for treason by the colonial authorities for daring to agitate for Nigerias independence, he got a state burial

Awolowo was once tried and sentenced to jail for treason, he got a state burial

If ojukwu was a patriotic Nigerian why are igbos agitating for Biafra? If he wasn't back to the question

Dfire:
Remember he killed major ifeajunna because he tried to prevent the Biafra war now was ifeajunna buried with military honors I doubt you know the meaning of patriot

which state are from pls?

DonMcek:
Bc he respected d Aburi Accord's agreement

No one knows the aburi accord there's no audio or video record everyone are providing different versions

donpap:
he was a LT Col

how many lieutenant colonels are in this country? How many of them have received that kind of burial?

You can not compare the charges against Zik and Awolowo with that of Ojukwu

The igbos who died in millions aren't complaining.......���... And this 17 year old afonja is crying on our behalf .

The question has nothing to do with igbos you guys always think your at the centre of the universe this is a question every patriotic Nigerian should ask

rewriting what?lmao
pls tell me one thing i wrote that is not true?
is it d pogroms or igbo anger about the false unity nigeria showed?
is it gowon claiming to be sick so that he would not sign the accord?(he even confirmed this on ait last year)

my perspective?lol bro this IS history.this is why nigeria is the way it is today

The first coup which was tagged Igbo coup was about what? Secession or Power

olasaad:


The first coup which was tagged Igbo coup was about what? Secession or Power

bro try and brush up on ur history
even core northern soldiers said dt coup was not tribal and they were pushed to a counter coup by ironsi's actions and taunting by fellow northerners
ademoyega who was part of the plot said d same thing
that igbos were found in high positions was because merit was d order of d day not quota system

danvon:

He got a state burial because he was a Nigerian veteran, And veterans are entitled to state burial

End of story

the mumu op should be ashamed of himself for asking a daft question
