AlhajaChinyere:
Save Lagos!!

Send Igbo people back to their Jungle!!!

Easier said than done..............

An average ibo (lagosian ) would rather die in Ikeja than relocate back to his hamlet in Abia.

The ones Fashola tried to reunite with their kindred souls in Upper Awka bridge were on the NEXT ekele chukwu bus, back to lagos.

Cherez:
No one raises an eyebrow at the retaliatory killings of those Igbo military who joined the coup.
Inasmuch as Nzeogwu is the South South claimed not to be Igbo but having no major Igbo leader killed in the first coup points a finger truly to the Igbos.
But those military Igbo guys were killed, what then led to the annihilation of millions of unarmed civilian Igbos? This is the question and it is not hypocritical.

Some of you shout at Ojukwu as if you'd even stand your friend being killed & do nothing talk more your relatives.

juman:
If you are in foreign land, behave accordingly.

JAMO84:
Crying everyday like egbere

Probably 'cause , they are closely related to "egberes".

Gabkosh:
Yea, Yoruba keep supporting them like tafawa balewa, Tofa, Shagari, and Atiku. Don't you see how yorubas keep supporting them. Kids everywhere

Dedetwo:
This was never Ironsi's broadcast. This is crap concocted by the western region media houses of 1966-67.

nijabazaar:
Can I mention biafra without a Yoruba going berserk?
Even in my office, I get attacked for showing the slightest of sympathy to Biafran causes. All my attackers are yoruba and the staff is diverse. The northern often appear non plussed. But the Yorubas will drown you with Reasons why Nigeria is the best paradise on earth

It's a cause vs effect thing.

You guys love Nigeria and will die for her.

Bekool:
Stupid barbarians let them mobilize themselves and come to the SS and SE that's where they will surely all meet their miserable end just like their terrorist forefather [b]uthmàn dan fodio was killed and sent to allah by the oba of benin and his warriors in auchi in the 18th century when he was marching to conquer [/b]and islamize the SS.

Why do you guys just like to propagate abject lies like this? Mischief and Igbos is like 5 & 6, bread & butter, chicken & chips

How did the oba of benin managed to kill dan fodio (who was not known to have physically lead any battle), who passed away in sokoto-his retirement home at the age of 62?

Another fake news from the IPOB bureau of statistics

I won't entertain you. You must die from heart attack today.

Is that what killed Kanu ?

Nope........................mouth ulcer.

The conflicted ydiot was chatting so much Poo , he finally choked on it.

A whole tribe lead by a confused idiot.

"the soldier nervously and accidentally pressed the trigger, letting go the rocket!

Luckily, he hit a target - a fuel Tanker! The Tanker exploded and threw its contents onto a nearby Armour carrier setting everything ablaze. The multiple explosion commenced!

In panic, soldiers who already crossed over into Biafran line ran in different directions in total confusion. Biafran soldiers attacked. They radioed the regular troops and they joined in the attack"
In other words,the "great victory" you guys won't keep shut about was by accident and sheer luck

gidgiddy:
Why would Gowon want Awo put in chains? A free Awolowo was of better use to him than an Awolowo in jail so as to get support from the Western Region.

The point Im trying to make is that it would not have been possible for Gowon to have released Awolowo. On the 29th of July 1966, Ironsi was killed in a coup by Northerners. The next few days was filled with uncertainty and confusion. Hardly anyone knew if Ironsi was dead or alive. Brigadier Ogundipe was sending Gowon to go to Ikeja barracks to negotiate with the coupist, nobody knew where Fajuyi was, Ojukwu was calling Ogundipe asking him to temporarily take over until there was clarity on the whereabouts of Ironsi. Even Ogundipe had to seek refuge on a ship for fear of his life.

But what some people want us to believe is that in those first few chaotic days, Gowon, managed to control of government and order the release of Awolowo in a Region that did not recognise him as head of state. Anyone who follows the timeline would know that the story of Gowon releasing Awolowo cannot be true

gidgiddy:
The video of Gowon releasing Awolowo in Lagos even though Awolowo was in Calabar prison? Unless Calabar is in Lagos, then something doesn't make sense somewhere

maestroferddi:
You are not adding up...

How believable is it that Gowon, the military head of state, would leave his official functions in Lagos and drive all the way to Callabar to free Awo?

Is the natural thing not for Gowon to have given the orders for Awo's release and had him brought to his office at Dodan Barracks if he wanted to see him?

The video was another event or it was simply stage-managed to mislead the gullibe into believing a pre-set narrative....

Omoodua007:
They quickly declared they were northern igbos

NwaAro:
the only region Igbos respected were the North csuse they were warriors, they got us back and I call that fair game even though we decimated more of them in the Biafran war, but Yoruba? Una no reach!

Yeah warriors, indeed!!!

These northerners have been slaughtering ibos long before the country attained her independence whenever it suits their fancy which must account for your now unabashed admittance of respect for your historical-cum-perennial tormentors.

It's for this reason that i have always entertained the belief that the only language you guys comprehend is unbridled VIOLENCE which has always been the way the northerners chose (and still do) to interact with the ibos.

I guess the northerners know something (about ibos) that we yorubas, inspite of our so-much acclaimed sophistication are ignorant of.

SLAP44:
Which assertion is that?

SLAP44:
You are just talking a lot of bull crap, are you drunk? Take alomo bitters.

bamite:
You've never made any meaningful contribution on this forum before. Shame on you

@ Bolded.........................Abi o jare!!!

Hence the reason why i tend to ignore his characteristic asinine comments here on this forum.

He has always been consistent...............................................

ScotMisile:
True,but remember in death no man comes back alive.
Awo, would have been shot.But, a honorable like Ojukwu never did that.
I doff my hat for him.

ScotMisile:
I sincerely agree with you that heads would have rolled,but the fact remains that a dead man is dead.

So,Awo would have been clearly shot.

Daddysidhan:
Are you mad? So you prefer an hearsay to factual information like this, what can be more real than the New York times at that time. I think people should be very careful of guys like you after you rejected the video evidence you were given another picture journal to cure your madness yet you not satisfied.

Dedetwo:
It was the same dumbass west which was Awolowo's homeland that harbored Gowon who had used Yoruba soldiers in Nigerian army to attack eastern region of Nigeria. Nigeria is called shithole in party because of idiotic logics such as the above post.

raumdeuter:
So Ojukwu has a right to attack Yoruba soldiers and Yoruba land but Yorubas dont have the right to attack Ojukwus men

You are really a morron

omonnakoda:
Why didn't they build in ABA?

.......probably because Abians were fond of throwing them into a cooking pot and making a feast for their hungry siblings.
