He had a duty of defending his country as a soldier against disintegration as enshrined in the constitution.

He was a soldier that had to do what needs to be done coz even if it’s not Gowon it will be someone else.

You all made it look like Gowon started the war. You also made it look like the Biafran side never killed any Nigerian soldier or civilian.

C’mon it’s a war and each side had a duty to defend their own and war always lead to casualties around the world. If Ojukwu birthday can be celebrated then Gowon also should have a chance to celebrate his birthday.

Lol, I know the history of Nigeria even more deeper than you can think.

What FFK is saying is just plain rubbish. He is a deranged adult that take pleasure in stoking the fire of hatred and attacking people all to appeal to his illiterate and hateful base.

toiling and messing with ibo people

I thought the drug addict said that it was Obafemi Awolowo that used your fathers and uncles for pepper soup and suya, isn't it Awo again? The bastard is very very confused.

But you can celebrate the birth of Obj Who supervised the killings of Odi people in Bayelsa state. Or those lives in Odi were less important? This guy and his followers are all confused elements

d igbo gal t0t0 has changed dis ones brain circuitry. If you don't celebrate Gowon's birthday, then we should ban the birthday of the Ojukwu who actually started the war because of his ego

FFK is very right on this

Gowon never declared war but police action, Pls research on it well

orisa37:
Gowon, Awo and Obj didn't fire a pin to obliterate Biafra. The Children died because of the untamable attitude of their parents.pp

An Igbo Lady by name precious has finally succeeded in capsizing the brain of FFK because of her sweet pussy. FFK now thinks like an Igbo man

Yes Gowon said "police action" but there was no police. It was the Nigerian Army that invaded the East, not the Nigerian Police. Police action was just no different than the declaration of war by Gowon

davillian:
Civilian casualties is something that must happen in a war but deliberately targeting women and children (civilian)is war crimes weather you like it or not.....
That's the point ffk is trying to make...
There were lots of war crime committed by the Nigerian army and nobody was punished for it...

Gowon started the war. It was Gowons refusal to implement the Aburi agreement he signed with Ojukwu in Ghana that started the war.

What Gowon fought for was not to keep Nigeria one, he fought for his fellow Northerners to dominate Nigeria, politically and economically.

Had Gowon had the unity of Nigeria at heart, he would have implemented the Aburi agreement. He could not implement the Aburi agreement because that agreement prevented the Northerners from dominating Nigeria

That's why the history of Nigeria is not taught in schools, to prevent people like you from knowing the truth

As I said before, they dont teach Nigerian history in Schools so that people like you can live in ignorance. So you think that the killing of Igbos was because of the Nzeogwu coup? Igbos were being killed long before that. The Jos massacre of 1945 and the Kano killings of 1953 are two examples of Northerners killing Igbos, long before there was any coup.

The simple question is, what caused the civil war? Ojukwu and Gowon had a meeting in Aburi Ghana and agreed on 12 points, some of which you mentioned above. In return for Ojukwu recognising Gowon as head of state and the Eastern Region remaining loyal to Nigeria, Gowon had to implement the 12 points agreed upon. Of the 12 points agreed, the most important was that Gowon would not change the 4 Regional structure of Nigeria unless all 4 military Governors of the time agreed with him. On the 26th of May 1967, Gowon, without consulting anybody, announced decree 14 which abolished the 4 Regional structure and replaced it with 12 states. Having broken the most important point of the Aburi agreement, representatives of the Eastern Nigeria consultative forum that represented the 20 provinces that made up the Eastern Region, met in Enugu on the 28th of May and voted for the Eastern Region to be a separate country. Ojukwu declared Biafra 2 days later and the Gowon declared war. It was after Gowon had declared war on Ojukwu that Ojukwu boasted he would win.


The important thing to note in this story is that Gowon caused the war.

It was Gowon that broke the Aburi agreement which left Ojukwu with no choice than to declare Biafra

It was also Gowon who first declared war
