Ojukwu, The Coward Secessionist-

Dimka Odumegwu Ojukwu of Biafra-Biafaa or Bia-Kpara, Ogoni version! With due respect to reasonable Igbos and the public. It isn't proper to rejoice over anyone's death. I'm also not doing so, rather pointing to the man Ojukwu. I hope readers would understand my truth that can be found through history and can't be disproved otherwise.

Ojukwu, who was good in his own right couldn't stand Ken Saro-Wiwa and his truth about Ogoni-saving our people from Biafra and Ojukwu's madness and greed (popularly known as Nigerian-Biafran Civil War, 1967-1970), was the number one coward.



Ojukwu sold Biafra due to his greed for oil and disrespect for Ogonis and other minorities of today's Niger delta. Biafra was mostly harshed due to the presence of Ogoni/Niger delta oil. If it succeeded Ogonis, who were already enslaved by Igbos in Ogoni land will be registered slaves today. Saro-Wiwa saw this and fought against it. Thus his crime at the hands of Ojukwu and other Biafran praise-singers who then sought Saro-Wiwa's head.

Meanwhile, Ojukwu ran away from his people at a critical moment into exile. Millions of innocent Igbos (Ogonis and other minorities also died in numbers at home and Igbo camps) killed while he ran away.

No wonder seasoned Igbos, including late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe refused to support Ojukwu and his Biafran insanity!

Though Ojukwu returned from Ivory Coast under Shehu Shagari or so. He couldn't have the opportunity to fight to revive Biafra again. This was contrary to the saying: he who fight and run away lives to fight another day.

Saro-Wiwa stood by his people to the end. He's a global hero while Ojukwu is the Igbo coward!

As mentioned inter alia, death is an inevitable end, so not proper to rejoice over the death of others. I'm not rejoicing over Ojukwu's death. Ojukwu's death, however, can't come without the truth about him, unlike the lies he told abroad about Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis. I hope readers may understand.



Because Ojukwu was cheap, greedy, yet with one of the best education but knew nothing to do with it, he's bribed by the Federal government of Nigeria (under Sanni Abacha), sponsored abroad to justify the world's environmental and human rights hero's (Saro-Wiwa) unjust hanging.

The coward in Ojukwu couldn't get away with that trash! He's bathed in rotten eggs; a high profile disgrace given in the West, when he went to London justifying Saro-Wiwa's unjust death of Nov. 10, 1995.

Today, Ojukwu is left to the Igbos of his kind and some Nigerians such as Goodluck Jonathan, who love violence and has already said, according to Sahara Reporters' Nov. 26 report, "Ojukwu's place in Nigerian history is assured."

Anyone still unsure that Jonathan and his Nigerian cabal hate Saro-Wiwa and Ogoni? How shameful to see a country love and honor violence and trash nonviolence and intellectual discussions, arguments for rights (as with Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis) and freedoms to the cutters!

That is the Nigeria run by the so-called majority ethnic groups for you. We can see Boko Haram like Ojukwu's Biafra, in action, supported also by Jonathan and his Hausa counterparts. We can see Jonathan sit and look confused, not sure of what to do with Boko (like he paid off Niger delta militants whose agitation was just, if not their greed and unintellectual approach) begging for help from America.

Finally, is Jonathan, one of the Ojukwu-Biafran violent praise-singer confused about the peaceful Ogonis, their just agitation for political, social and economic justice, ruined environment? No! He and the Federal government is hardened, waiting for a period when news may come that all Ogonis are extinct due to environmental degradation and government, $hell's inaction and stupidity. Shame on Nigeria, because Ogoni, which is older than Nigeria will live to shame the Ojukwus and its Nigerian oppressors!

Aptly stated.

Madam editor, kindly show us why any reasonable individual will want to stick to Nigeria with all the negative indices residence in Nigeria.

57 years after the war, why is Nigeria yet to get things right? I guess the answer is Ojukwu.

LOL! I know this simple write up will create another war of words as it's happening above.But this is Nigeria ... Not Hausa/Fulani kingdom or Biafra,all we need is what to do to make things work to achieve our dream Nigeria for ourselves and our unborn children.

TheGoodJoe:
Now it is strange that Nigeria forgot that those who foiled the Nzeogwu coup were Igbo senior officers. General Johnson Aguiyi- Ironsi, Lt.Cols Emeka Ojukwu, Conrad Chukwujimje Dibia Nwawo (NA 10), Alexander Attah Madiebo and Major Alphonso Keshi.

As Brigade Major, 2 BDE Kaduna, Keshi informed Madiebo of the coup. Madiebo moved over to the Brigade Headquarters where Nzeogwu had taken over Ademulegun’s seat and worked on Nzeogwu. Ojukwu, Commanding Officer Third Battalion, Kano stood his ground strategically and all worked with Ironsi to fly in Nwawo, then Defence Attaché in London, and Nzeogwu’s teacher. Only then could the Major be softened.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2017/04/intelligence-failed-nzeogwu/amp/

Ojukwu was behind the failed attempt of Nzeogwu. At the end, it was always about Ojukwu's ambition.

Which finally led people to war, his greed to not surrender against the advise from his solders on the battlefield. Rounded them and executed them because they asked him to surrender and save the lives of the Igbo people.

Then ran away and let the Igbos die in millions.

Mtcheww.

''Ojukwu was behind the failed attempt of Nzeogwu. At the end, it was always about Ojukwu's ambition."


Present any proof to this

No Nigeria is an Islamic country weda you like it or not. It’s ruled by the north and created for the north.

There’s a reason why our spoken language is English and Arabic is inscribed in many stuffs ‘Nigerian’

Rule, how? Who's interested in ruling the poverty capital of the world, that houses 3rd and 4th most deadliest terrorists. With malnutrition running rogue as well as Illiteracy.

A country that doesn't have a say among the league of nations, a nation her leader seeks healing abroad.

The British officers at Kaduna kept wondering what an Oxford graduate was doing as a private in the Army and sent him for officers course in England. Ojukwu returned in 1957 and was commissioned a second Lieutenant, the first graduate to join the Nigerian Army.

Ojukwu rose rapidly through the Army. He was promoted to Lieutenant in 1958, Captain in 1960, Major in 1962 and Lieutenant Colonel in 1964.

Ojukwu was commander of the 4th battalion, Kano, when the first coup happened in January 1966.

As the coup unfolded, Major Nzeogwu called on Ojukwu to join the coup to which Ojukwu refused. Ojukwus refusal to join Nzeogwu is one of the major reasons why Nzeogwu's coup eventually failed.

General Ironsi then siezed power and appointed Ojukwu Military Governor of the Eastern Region.

6 months later, mid-level officers of the Nigerian of Northern extraction conducted a coup that led to the overthrow and killing of Ironsi, and the installment of Lt Yakubu Gowon as head of state. The coup also greenlighted a pogrom in which over 30,000 Easterners, mainly Igbos, were killed all over Nigeria, particularly in the North.

The inability of Gowon to stop the killings, the resentment in the Eastern Region against his government and the fact that Ojukwu was senior to Gowon caused bad blood between both men

The crisis became so bad that the then President of Ghana, General Joe Ankrah, intervened and invited both Gowon and Ojukwu to his Hiltop Mansion in Aburi, Ghana, for peace talks in January of 1967.

After two days of discussions, Ojukwu and Gowon signed an agreement that was to be known as the Aburi Accord.

A few months after their return from Ghana, Gowon broke the Aburi accord they signed by issuing decree 14 of 1967 which abolished all the 4 Regions, created 12 states, reversed the fical federalism practiced, changed the revenue sharing formular, all in a bid to increase the power of the North over the rest of Nigeria

For Ojukwu, it was the last straw. Ojukwu convened the Eastern Nigerian Consultative Forum, a body that comprised of all the chiefs and head of the 20 provinces that made up the Eastern Region. They sat and discussed for 2 days and mandated Ojukwu to declare the Eastern Region a separate country. On the 30th of May 1967, Ojukwu declared the Eastern Region a separate country called the Republic of Biafra.

In retaliation, Gowon declared war. The war raged on for 3 years and ended in January 1970 with Ojukwu handing over to his deputy, General Effiong, flying into exile in Ivory Coast and the subsequent surrender of Biafra.

Ojukwu later returned from exile 12 years later. He died in London in 2011 aged 78. His burial remains the greatest ever witnessed in Nigeria

Ojukwu is still revered by most Igbos because they believe he fought for their freedom.

Below is a picture of a 22 year old, Biafran warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu and his aunty, Winifred Ojukwu, shortly after he returned to Nigeria in 1955 on completing his studies at Oxford university. Ojukwu bagged a Degree in History.

Ojukwu attended Kings College Lagos, Epsom College, Surrey, England and the prestigious Oxford University, England.

By the time Ojukwu returned to Nigeria in 1955, his father had become one of the richest businessmen in the country with a business empire that spanned Transportation, Banking, Retail, Construction and Manufacturing.

Ojukwu's father took him to his corporate headquarters and showed him a well furnished airconditioned office, offering him a top position in his business organisation. Ojukwu turned his father down, telling him he wanted to make his own way in life. Ojukwu eventually secured a job in the civil service as an assistant district officer of Udi division, just outside Enugu. In 1956, Ojukwu was posted to Aba. It was at Aba that Ojukwu attended a party that would change the course of his life. At this party, Ojukwu met a young Yoruba man called Adeyinka Adebayo, who had just been newly commissioned as an officer of the Nigerian Army. Adebayo told Ojukwu that the Army was in the process of being indigenized and their was a shortage of officers. A few weeks after this party, Ojukwu was promoted to District Officer and posted to Calabar.

On hearing that his son had been posted to Calabar, Ojukwus influential father prevailed on the authorities to cancel the posting. When Ojukwu learnt of what his father had done, he angrily resigned his job and drove all the way to Kaduna where he enlisted into the Nigerian Army as a lowly recruit.

. Ojukwu ..the man I respect most in the East with his bravery unlike those who are noise makers today and are reputed for noise making outside the shores of Nigeria.

really do u think gurriella warfare is easy. America runs away in Vietnam, Cuba, Korea, now Afghanistan

not their country. Go and form terrorist group in USA let's see if you won't join Al Baghdadi in ashes

Don't know why Hausa people can not just go on their own and have Sharia law in peace.

Because Igbos insist on living in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Sokoto, Jos , Maiduguri, Yola, Bauchi, Ilorin, Minna, Makurdi,Gusau,Damturu Oturkpo Bida, Zaria , Gombe and Abuja . Tell them to leave and the problem is solved.

fk002:
Nice one but this is a Biafran version/perspective of the civil war history.

Our own version clearly stated that it was Ojukwu that broke the Aburi agreement


Why did Nzwego Kaduna start the first coup in the first place, what was he aiming at by annihilating all the northern and western leaders while he spared the lives of Azikiwe and Ironsi. Hypocrisy at its peak.

After the Major Kaduna coup, Igbo traders in SW and North were mocking and rubbing it on the face of Northerners and Yorubas that the country belongs them. We know how Narcssist they can be. Hence the reason for retaliation from the Northerners.


Instead of Ironsi to court marshal Nzwego, ifuajana and their cronies he didn't, he decided to give them presidential pardon in a lowkey, thats what infuriated the Northern and western military officers which lead to the second coup.



In conclusion from the start to the end of the civil war igbos were the genesis they caused it all.

"After the Major Kaduna coup, Igbo traders in SW and North were mocking and rubbing it on the face of Northerners and Yorubas that the country belongs them. We know how Narcssist they can be. Hence the reason for retaliation from the Northerners."

This is as false as ever.

Same applies to everything u wrote in this post.

Lol. Col. Adeyinka Adebanjo was the most important person in his life, without him, ojukwu would have been a cloth merchant in his father's shop. yoruba have done so much for these people.

Are you also an illiterate dullard like the barawo bubu that Thiefnuibu and Olesanjo packaged for us as change
That is a question that you are free to answer if you can.

U mean greatest for yorubas?

Well yes but Fela was a great man. A great activist indeed, he wasn't a tribalist like Awolowo he fought for all Nigerians so sad that when he was killed nobody said anything. HIV indeed Nigeria is doomed to die soon. The end is near.

I believe all he said , and I’m not brainless like that confused Oxford graduate who dragged millions of innocent people to their death only to escape and leave them to their fate.
