Igbos Are The True Owner Of Nigeria, It’s Sad Invaders Are Now In Charge – Gowon by Priscy01(op): 4:48pm On Mar 06, 2020
A Former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon (retd), has declared that the people of the South East are the legitimate owner of Nigeria.

Gowon made this known while speaking during a conference for National Unity entitled: “Federal Character, Restructuring and Rotation of Presidential Power in Nigeria”, in Abuja on Thursday, March 5.

The conference was organized by Igbo Leadership Development Foundation.

The former Nigerian leader stated that; “I believe that the Ndigbo, Middle belt and the Yoruba’s are the true Nigerians because if you look round our borders, people came from abroad and are still coming but Ndigbo have always been there, middle belt have always been there, even Yoruba’s have always been there”

“(It’s sad that) people who came in yesterday who have a duty of respect are now the ones talking, ” he added.

No one is disputing this

From Nnamdi Azikwe who fought hard for Nigeria independence

Aguiyi Ironsi who made Nigeria a federation no other leader has attempted to undo it

Nzeogwu who got rid of corrupt parasites threatening the country's independence

Ojukwu who gave Nigeria a sense of patriotism something they previously lacked

The millions of Igbo pawns who were sacrificed for Nigeria, and Nigeria was checkmated in turn

So it's now Gowon is just realizing all this?

You don't know azikiwe is the father of Nigeria?

If not for the civil war, igbo would be your lingual franca.

Even ahmadu bello said it before he died.

Things have fallen apart. Servants are riding on horseback and princes are treking barefoot.

I just so much love the way you've spun this to fit your revisionist narration.

From Nnamdi Azikwe who fought hard for Nigeria independence
Guess who also fought for independence. Tafawa Balewa, Awolowo and co. Not just Azikiwe.

Aguiyi Ironsi who made Nigeria a federation no other leader has attempted to undo it
You mean the same Aguiyi Ironsi that turned Nigeria into a unitary system of government, killing the potentials of each region and concentrating power in the center?

How's that working out for you?

Nzeogwu who got rid of corrupt parasites threatening the country's independence
Oh, you mean the first coup plotter who was the first to truncate Nigeria's ailing democracy?

Ojukwu who gave Nigeria a sense of patriotism something they previously lacked
Lol. Surely you aren't talking about the man who plunged Nigeria into its first and only civil war. The same man who abandoned his people whom he pushed into a war and fled to Cote d'Ivoire.

The millions of Igbo pawns who were sacrificed for Nigeria, and Nigeria was checkmated in turn

So it's now Gowon is just realizing all this?
So the millions of Igbos who died in the war are now pawns, right?

At least that was how Ojukwu saw them anyway.

That was why he starved women and children so that he could take pictures of their malnourished bodies and show to the whole world and gain sympathy for his cause.

It's more practical than the yoruba tribe that claims they fell from heaven.

[quote author=FrLukas post=87222515][/quote]Gowon and Awolowo abolished regions and introduced state. Today yorubas are crying for regionalism, I bet Awo was short sighted when he advised Gowon to abolish the regions he inherited from Gen Ironsi.

Something is happening in Nigeria, and it seems it's going to favour the Igbos
I doubt this man is saying all these things willingly.
It seems some spirit is flogging his soul
