You are such an illiterate... This article itself is baseless... In 1953, Zik had no power or position whatsoever, the power was with the British people. Nigeria is still a British property with British administrators...

Secondly, what the illiterate wrote in the article, Zik did not support Biafra, in fact, he was on the side of Nigeria and was fighting on behalf of Nigeria. He was basically a traitor.
blackpast a reputable pan African website wrote that not me

If you didn't know Mandela seeked refuge in the house of MBAZULIKE AMAECHI IN NNEWI then I think you should get updated before we continue

No he didn't insult Yoruba....Yoruba wasn't part of his problem....he insulted white men and blacks working for the white men to hold their own people down
do you know what refuge is at all?


lie
the basis of IPOB was formed on insulting Yoruba and pastors
that's what gave him his followers

Please, let's be clear. Kwara is not part of the SW, Kwara has historically belonged with the Fulani and the Hausa. Recent economic migrants from the SW have come into the state's southernmost fringes, but that doesn't mean that the state belongs to the SW.
most of kwara belongs to Yoruba not SW
SW is just a geopolitical zone

Was Zik in control of the military when the debate was on going?
Does he have the power to stop the north if actually they meant business?
was Awolowo in control of the military?

if roles were reversed
and Azikwe was in the place of Awolowo

he would do the same
even worse

Even Nelson Mandela was tagged a terrorist and he came Igbo land to seek refuge while in nnewi he sends message across his people and still control their activity

KANU drinking Spanish wine and French bagels is a picture you saw him with his family after he escaped assassination in Nigeria and appeared in isreal then later went to UK to meet with his family

How he escaped Nigeria intelligence unit should have been a great concern to you....even today KANU might even be in Nigeria broadcasting
"seek refuge in igboland"
you're decieving yourself

Mandela didn't start his "freedom fighting" by insulting Yoruba like nnamdi
Mandela didn't give orders like a king
Mandela isn't called a supreme leader
Mandela didn't insult the British and still live in their land and even beg them for asylum

Mandela was equal to each south African man that wanted freedom

nnamdi is a fraud

and you know it

Your history is baseless because the opinion of Zik at the time that Nigeria should be one was shared many people including the common man on the street

As for Awolowo, he is demonised in the East for the role he played in the war
no history is baseless
history is history
and must be told
true history not history of hate and bitterness


what evil role
he did what was best for the east
he prevented a protected war
it's just bitterness that would make anyone hate him

What is the point of all this? That Zik had an opinion? Isnt Zik entitled to his opinion? If it is Ziks opinion that the North should not secede, it is still the North's choice. Zik did not own Nigeria or the North.

This thread is pointless
this thread was created for purpose of history

answer my question


why is Awolowo demonized by the east when Azikwe had the same sentiments?

If you make me the president of this country today, the first thing I will do is to close the Murtala Mohammed international Airport, Aminu Kano and Nnamdi Azikiwe international Abuja!
I will also close every other Sea ports in Nigeria, with the exception of the ones at Calabar!
Tht done, I will promulgate a law that makes it mandatory for all Nigerians traveling outside the country or sending goods outside the country to use the brand new Anambra international airport ONLY, and for your Imports and exports by sea, all must use the beutiful Calabar Sea ports ONLY! Then make the Igbos the beurea de change dealers at the airports, the same way it's the preserve of the fulanis today..

There should be no complaints from all you loqacious ones since you have accepted a similar set up for almost a century at the detriment of the easterners while always quick in condemning those easterners who groan under the weight of these oppressive policies as those living in "victimhood"..,Right?

1. Zik is entitled to his opinion. Zik was nobody in 1953 to determine for the North what to do. If the North wants to secede from Nigeria, nobody can stop them. The North stayed in Nigeria of their own accord

2. Zik did not lead his people out of Nigeria, Ojukwu did. Zik initially supported Biafra but later ran back to his "one Nigeria"


3. Had Zik been alive today to witness what is happening in Nigeria, he would have regretted every second he ever wasted believing in "one Nigeria"
he was not a nobody
he had many British allies

and Awolowo had similar sentiments

so why demonize Awolowo and call Azikwe the great zik of Africa"?

is that not hypocritical?

Nigeria should know that the first slave revolution was of igbos extraction

Some even sunk the slave ship with their slave masters on board


We love freedom....and we revolt once you're no longer making sense to us

Even as you see Nnamdi Kanu today..... If a large number of igbos are still listening to him.... It's because he's still getting it right no matter how bad you think it looks.... It's in our subconsciousness to detect when something is going wrong and we revolt immediately
stop being childish

Where you able to hate miyyeti Allah Fulani herdsmen when they killed Mr idam and his family rape his wive and daughter before hacking them open with matchete in ebonyi

Did you hate miyyetti Allah and Fulani herdsmen when they kidnapped and raped a yoruba woman with her daughter then killed her daughter afterwards along Lagos ore road when she recently came back from abroad then released her?

Did you hate on police and army killing ESN operatives for chasing Fulani herdsmen out of indigenous peoples land?

Did you listen to the video of Samuel Orton today?

When you want to start your hate....hate the army that knelt down to shoot our mother point in Aba for protesting

IF ESN ARE TERRORIST THEN HISBA IS TERRORIST, AMOTEKUN IS TERRORIST, POLICE AND ARMY, DSS ARE ALL TERRORIST

if KANU is promoting violence what did Samuel Orton said BUHARI is doing with Fulani in that headline below

Orton is not IPOB AND BUHARI IS NOT NNAMDI KANU...YET SOMEONE HE'S PROMOTING VIOLENCE
all this doesn't change the facts on ground
I don't hate anyone
nnamdi is just a deranged opportunist

So you don't know regional government and restructuring is the Same thing?

Same thing that made Ojukwu ask for restructuring is making Nnamdi Kanu ask for REFERENDUM.... Does REFERENDUM mean bloodshed or war

But you killed his members for asking for referendum which if you so much trust Nigeria is working and the people are happy with Nigeria you will win the vote but instead you ordered a shoot at sight and labeled them terrorists group

You know in Nigeria we have a habit of not telling the story from the beginning....we start from the recent part
they are different
restructuring comes in many ways
and true federalism (regionalism) is one
nnamdi is deranged

he has no plan

he is just promoting violence
ESN are terrorists
I supported them until they killed Mohammed Isa extrajudicially
now they kill igbo policemen

kanu wants to make Nigeria worse than Somalia
and he's making the east his head quarters

With what we have here one can intellectually orientate that the great Zik of Africa was very open and not forcefully imposing his opinion on The Northerners.

All I see here is an intelligently constructed submission with plateful of logic to reason with.

The great Zik was a genius.
I can see that you are enjoying the "one Nigeria" he championed
the north is the cause of Nigeria's woes today

was Awolowo the one fedding his enemy?

The food and medications was not from Nigeria

How and when did igbos became his enemy..... Research about that too.... On that part you will realize that ABURI ACCORD MEANS RESTRUCTURING and GOWON refuse to hold up his end of the signed RESTRUCTURING

The same restructuring AWOLOWO as you said preached about

The same restructuring Nigeria went to war for in 1967 is the same restructuring Nigeria is begging to have today

Igbos really have paid enough blood to deserve their own nation
I didn't say Awolowo believed in restructuring
I said he believed in regional governance which still existed to an extent at that time

yes most the food wasn't from Nigeria agreed
but it doesn't change anything
you can't allow the enemy in a war to be strengthened
most of the bloodshedding were very avoidable especially that of the war
and now nnamdi is championing a course that will lead to more blood letting
blood is not what forms a nation
reasonable sacrifice and wisdom does
