[s]No one integrate igbos, Gowon fought against biafra not because they want another country but because they want to take over Lagos the Nigeria capital then, initially Ojukwu had lot of pranks and scam in his sleeves, he have seen the viability of kagos, because he schooled there, he knows Lagos will be bigger than all the Eastern region, so he wanted to take over Lagos that was why Gowon waked him up from his delusion, if Ojukwu is genuine, he shouldn't have accepted shagari's pardon and also run under the Northern party, Ojukwu was just filled with bitterness and hatred, he thought because he and Gowon were the same rank, he should have been the military head of state rather than Gowon.[/s]

Because they can't do without us,they are scared of what we will become if left alone.but now they can't stop the new Biafra,a great igbo country where merit will be cherished.I wonder who they will hate next when we leave.

flyingpig:
you're dumb. Ojukwu came for Lagos simply because its the administrative center of the military government, not to conquer and annex it. He was all for Yoruba independence from the fulani contraption. Read his official letter to Victor banjo on the invasion of lagos through benin and ore.

That was an act of aggression committed long before the Nigerian Forces dispatched troops to retake Biafra .

You Igbos keep playing the victim when you were the aggressors from the very beginning.

You deserved the punishment you got as you were the ones that touched the tiger's tail.

[s]Just listen to your mediocre reasoning, you want to separate your group from another groups and you are going to the other groups' headquarters, what stupidity and madness is that, if Ojukwu really want to secede, he should have seal up his Biafra territory and cut off other not going into the lands of the Midwest, that was his undoing, his sinister motives were cut short.[/s]

You will get your Jewish Biafra without the Christian Niger Delta.

He wanted the oil of the south south region, that was the reason for his agitation and he sacrificed lives of innocent people to try to achieve his individual goal, when he saw that he wasn’t going to be successful he ran to protect his dear life, Ojukwu never cared about Biafra

@ Bolded....................this is quiet obvious to discerning minds including the blind but our ibo brothers just refused to see clearly from their conditioned prism.

Had Ojukwu truly cared about his people, he would have ran off into exile long before January 1970 i.e at the peace conference in Kampala where his people had had enough only for Ojukwu to stand up and insisted on continuing with the war. In the meanwhile, his kith and kins are dying daily in their hundreds from malnutrition.

The above post is a display of inherent ignorance. [b]There would not have been a war if the defunct western region of Nigeria had opted to secede. [/b]Therefore Lagos never factored in what precipitated Nigeria\Biafra war.

IamWonderful:
What really make me angry is that he didn't allow food and foreign aids into the region during the war, he allowed them to starve to death, he also sent soldiers to war with a single bullet

TheDevilIsALai:
The only reason Gowon and the middle belt fought to keep Nigeria one was to check the excesses of the Fulanis.

Gowon opposed vehmently Murtala's Operation Araba out of genuine concerns that the minorities in the north would have been under the yoke of the Muslim north if Arewa had secceded after the mutiny of July, 1966.

With this in the background, Gowon's reasons of insisting on bringing back the core Igbo states back to Nigeria was based on ensuring the Igbo return will help balance the power of he Muslim north as that of the Yorubas and ND was not adequate.

These are the two stupid decisions Gowon made.

Are the Muslim north not killing and oppressing his people today?

Secondly, Gowon should have stopped advancing after the Niger Delta regions where liberated from Biafra and left the Igbos to their own device.

Another foolish crap from a so-called Nigerian. Most Nigerians do not even know that date Nigeria\Biafra war started. What drives most of the goons is simply tribalism.

joeyfire:


Wrong. At that time the people of the middle belt still thought they were part of the north. Its after they used them to fight the war that they told them that they were not "core north"

cjrane:
Op, ASK YOURSELF 3 SIMPLE QUESTIONS:

1.) Was Biafra ever re-integrated into Nigeria?

2.) Did the Hausa/Fulani ever stop the war since 1970?

3.) Can you honestly say that the same way the north and west received federal investment since 1970 was the same equitable way the former Biafra region did?

If the answers to the above are "No", then why are you feigning "surprise" that Biafra want to go? All your loud wailing about Biafra/One Nigeria is because you are desperate to use their OIL! Else, you had more than 50 years opportunity to build unity and you rejected unity.

He sent soldiers to war without war gear or weapons, they had to scramble for Nigeria’s weapons when they capture an armoured vehicle. Nigerian army noticed this and ended using those armoured vehicle as bait lure biafran soldiers to their slaughter

Shatap.

Ojukwu attempted a surprise attack on Lagos after moving troops into Benin.

Did Ojukwu not invade Midwest?

Stop jewing you nigger jew
