OP we know you opened this thread to mock the dead but whether you like it or not, millions of people world over loves and adores Ojukwu. He is a rare gem

He is a coward who ran away during the heat of the war.

A good commander always have the necessary things before embarking on war.

Same way Kanu fled when Python visited...

No, I disagree. He is a hero, he stood against the injustice and nepotism being meted on the Southerners by the then Northern Government.

Ojukwu and his Biafra, ipob or whatever are all Cowards

Stop being sarcastic.

But you knew that those cowards from that side of the country will be insulting him yet you went ahead and opened this thread.

the coward is the one who trying to eat Fulani poo just like your ancestors. Ojukwu remain my hero

HERO


Am a yoruba man
People like Ojukwu are really scarce in Nigeria of today.
All we have are polithief with selfish interest.
So the man is a brave man.

Sir Louis Nwachukwu Mbanefo (May 13, 1911 - March 28, 1977) knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1961, was the first lawyer from Onitsha and the Eastern Region. He was called as Justice to the Supreme Court of Nigeria in 1952, until 1967 when he became the Chief Justice of Biafra.

Mbanefo remained in Biafra till the very end after Ojukwu fled and left him and Maj. Gen. Phillip Effiong to negotiate the terms of surrender with Nigeria.

After the war, he refused to return to the bench as a Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria but remained in Biafra to spend his later years in charity and church work.
Sir Louis Nwachukwu Mbanefo, died in 1977, aged 65, as a knight of the British Empire, with his pride and integrity intact.

Hero, he did what was best for the Eastern region at that time....
But he should have expected betrayals and planned better...

I don't give a fvck about anybody. I opened this thread to entertain people and to engage people intellectually and gain more knowledge. Who cares what anybody says?

That was his only downfall, he should have planned better and carried everybody along.

This picture was taken at the Ahiara declaration that took place in Mbaise. Ojukwu still had fond memories of Ahiara till his death.

Seeing these pictures always evokes nostalgic feelings in me. It was unfortunate the other mugu Nigerians, especially those in the South and Middle belt couldn't see beyond their noses then to understand that Nigeria was a terrible omen.
















50 years later, they are all still in confusion, as the country they fought to keep has become a killing field, kidnapping and rape jungle, and also the world's poverty capital.

Ojukwu went to aburi ghana to negotiate for restructuring
Which gowon signed ,came back and rejected it and was backed by awolowo
Benue hatred for igbos was a driving force and they were massively recruited to kill biafrans while core north are made their commander
Benue now is their killing field
Today westerners are still shouting for restructuring they rejected in 1967 be cause it came from ojukwu
Same way they accept sunday igboho while labeling kanu terrorists
The cowards are those that rejected that aburi accord of 1967,but now begging for restructuring in 2020 after 50+ years

Because of their control of media they called ojukwu all sort of names,
Rebel,separatist
The way they are vilifying kanu

He saw the future, he knew Nigeria was a mess right from the start.

Ojukwu a man that saw the future

Nna mehnnnnnnnnnn

Ojukwu was and is still a hero in the heart of Eastern people,...

Please you guys should mark this helinues character, he's not Yoruba oh, he is a Fulani coward pretending to be Yoruba in order to spread division between Yorubas and Igbos. He also has many other monikers that he is using.

Ojukwu declared the freedom and independence of his people and fought a three year war of liberation under very difficult situations. What sort of coward does that? What sort of coward would fight a much bigger opponent, such as Nigeria, for 3 years? A coward would not fight at all

Freedom is one one of the most honorable things any man or people can fight for. Freedom is one of the few things in life worth dying for.

Ojukwu was a hero for fighting for the freedom of his people for 3 tears. Those who call him coward are those who have never fought for their own freedom for 3 minutes, let alone 3 years.

Not only in the heart of Eastern people but in the minds of all meaningful southerners.
