I see all attempts to inject Nzeogwu into this discourse as attempts to derail the thread, because we are discussing what happened at Aburi, remember? The Accord signed and trashed!
I see the same pattern here from KnowAll to you, whereby you both switch freely from blaming Igbo for the coup of Jan 1966 to saying that "Mid-Westerners" should say their views here-as if they are part victims of the coup. Nzeogwu conveniently becomes Igbo whenever you justify the mass murder of innocent civilians and the war, but you conveniently forget that he was a Mid-Westerner!

Thank you

Afam:
In fact, you can take the comment above to any bank and they will give you cash.

Meanwhile, these truth twister also conveniently forget that Ojukwu and even Ironsi foiled the coup that was led by Nzeogwu who though a Mid Westerner is usually labelled Igbo just to justify the many lies and massacre of innocent Igbo people by the Northerners and their supporters.

Facts are facts, they don't lie, they don't change whereas lies usually fall like pack of cards anytime any day.

Seek the truth, see the light, shun lies and bold enough to associate with the truth regardless of the consequences.

Unfortunately, the average Nigerian would rather go to war than accept a mistake no matter how obvious or glaring the mistake is.

Let the truth be told no matter how hard it is to swallow.
Thank you bro

Becomeafool,
please take ur campaign to the right place. What organization do u have? NONE

Arguing with a bigot like Know-all is a complete waste of time but then again ignoring him means letting Nigerians like him spread lies at our expense. How can the military not be responsible for stopping the blood-letting at that scale? I can understand if you are talking about a scuffle between 5 people but a whole region hunting down humans like animals? The police is not trained for that hence its the military's job. They could attack the soldiers and civilians in the East for leaving them but couldn't quell civilian mass killings in the North?

If it was not their job then Igbos and Easterners owed them no allegiance and should have been left alone to rot or progress in Biafra. NO BUTS.

Damn Aba is hot mess but I'm sure there are better places n Aba so those pictures are not the only representation of the city but seriously, a commercial city like Aba should not be in this state.

Why are you even whining about the amount that is paid to them like as if anyone is saying its too small and they should get a bigger share? I think majority are saying that its an insult to the family. The FG should be looking for the killers but we know as usual in the North you can kill and go free.

The police can quit his job if its not enough for him and besides the civilians are also forced to pay them extra money at the check points so they are getting paid. Nigerian society is so lawless its hard to believe there is police force.

Knowall can't be over 40 but if he is then he quite a fool at 40. Reducing events during the Aburi conference to fictional characters shows his level of immaturity and stupidity honestly.

Texaspette,
I don't think the average Nigerian gives a damn about the abusive, corrupt and murderous Nigerian police so don't expect any cry if one is killed for whatever reason.

Back to the real topic please.

Until we learn to pay the North in the same coin whenever they kill our people they will kill more and more while we moan and groan like goats.
,What's so hard about having at least 7 Northern heads rolled back to the North? Its a damn shame we've made ourselves willing sacrificial lambs for one nigeria.

Seriously FUCCK SARADUNA.
Igbos are the FOOLS who did not send 50,000 Hausa-Fulani muslims to their own early graves for the death of Aguiyi Ironsi who was innocent and had nothing to do with the coup.

TIT for TAT.

The fact remains that the FG in conjunction with most nigerias are out annihilate easterners at all cost, and until we begin to retaliate aggressively, we should just keep shut, collect whatever compensation that is given to us and wait for the next massacre.

I agree

Who still reads post by becomrich/
Its hard to even read more than one sentence coz its nothing but crap.

chaiiii

Nuzo,
are u serious? Is the girl worth 2 million to you? BTW 2 MILLION naira is less than $2000 so that is an insult. The girl's life is priceless.

Stupid government. So they sabi protect northerners from reprisal in Obudu but could not protect the poor woman and other youth corpers in the North.

Ezeagu, good point.

Whoever wins should simply do their best to improve the lives of Anambra people and its infrastures. Get Anambra up where it should or atleast set it on its path greatness. All these Dubai, Paris, Eldorado talk is just silly.

MAY THE BEST MAN / WOMAN WIN.

What a stupid thread. The last time I checked there are 5 to 7 states where Igbos are native in very large number but somehow Anambra state is the one that represents Igboland? I am proudly Anambra and glad my people are determined to not let PDP take over their state like they have done in other states.

Ekiti state has been in turmoil for the longest so in your logic Yoruba ppl should never rule Nigeria? Yeah we've seen your style of leadership from North to West and its nothing to boast about so be quiet and worry about yours. The way you people obsess yourselves with us you  should start naming your kids Igbo. Hissssss

To even think of such nonsense shows the mindset of some of you Nigerians. That should never happen. I will vote for none. Instead progress we regress. Instead renew we recycle. DAMN SHAME

Its been n recession.

Okunoba
BRAVOOOOOOOO U've spoken like a clueless person you are. CHEERS

Since you admit you knew nothing about Biafra while you were in Nigeria i think its time to keep mute while the ones who know about it can tell you the real gist not all that fabricated stories floating in your head.

Screaming that I hate Yoruba ppl coz I'm telling you like it is is your business and it won't stop me from telling you again that the involvement of many of your leaders was down right evil and opportunistic minus Wole Soyinka. It was Awolowo who justified the use of starvation to starve fellow southerners for some oil wealth. It was Obasanjo who massacred many civilians in Owerri. It was Adekunle who fought a bitter battle against Biafra. These are facts and if stating facts to you equals hate then so be it. Its like telling a Russian that he hates Germans just for the fact that he talking about German attrocities against Russians during WW2. Easterners lost over 3 million ppl to senseless ethnic cleansing. Who has the right to talk?

Enahoro, Ejoor, Saro Wiwa, Asika, Amadi, are all in the same league of treacherous Easterners who betrayed Biafra so I guess in your warped logic I hate Easterners and Midwest people? Knock yourself out then.

My question to you is, Is the late Unegbe who was killed alongside saraduna, belewa, not Igbo enough? yes or no

mikeansy:
The gun shuts may have ended in 1970 but you can only read threads like these to know that some Nigerians are still prosecuting their war against the Igbos.

Ojukwu defended Igbos from Ethnic Cleansing and some folks come here to make the point that the fact that he did not make himself available to you guys to cut off his head and keep in your museum as a trophy makes him a coward. Well it has not happened and anybody who does not like it can go hang. Ojukwu will forever remain a legend amongst Igbos regardless of what the same people who were responsible for what Ojukwu stood against thinks.
It is unfortunate that folks who make so much noise about unity can not in the least bit understand how to achieve one, unity can not be achieved on your own terms and conditions alone without any compromise and respect for others.[i][/i] Unfortunately this country will continue to wobble so long as we continue to live in denial of our history.

This is largely responsible for the sorry state we are now in. There is only one victor in this drama the British and their allies in the west.

Well put.

rip

stupid

KEREWAAAAAA

Benue music and I'm lovin it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VrFQqYJ5-Y

anyway shaa whether white ppl nyash to Yoruba music all night does not validate them. Good music is good music. I like Lagbaja, Fela's music --- I used to like Shina peters tho.

If you don't know about Oliver, Onyeka, etc then I don't know wat to tell ya coz they are popular

How could over 40 million Igbos come from a small group like the Igala? Yes we have certain cultural similarities and I'm from an area like that. Maybe Igala came from Igbo but the other way round.

Igbo is Igbo. WE came from nobody.

Umuogbu / Umudioka - Awka KWENU!!!!

Any Eastern city but I can do Jos.

Okunoba,
You continue arguing that no Easterner was killed, only Northerners and Westerners when its so clear Unegbe is neither Hausa nor Yoruba but IGBO. This is a clear case of selective reading and learning by people hell bent on blaming Igbos for the tragedy that befell them and you wonder why Yoruba folks are hardly ever trusted by people even though the likes of Wole Soyinka, Tos Benson, have shown that there are men with principle in Yoruba land. Its quite clear that the Yoruba leaders at that time left the Igbos and the East to be slaughtered because of positions they were salivating to get once the East was finished. Even though Fajuyi was
murederd by the North in your own soil that was not enough to convince them that a united SOUTH was better than fighting for the North or sitting on the fence just so you can pick up crumbs left after the struggle like a bunch of scavenging hyenas. Majority of your leaders lack moral principle and will join the highest bidder even if it is Nazi Germany. I'm sure if the East was having the upper hand your leaders would have went with them to pick up position left by the North.

Ono,
utoro gbari kwa gi na venom.

Whining about Ghana will do you no good. Just go and fix your yeye country Nigeria then you won't feel the need to flock to other places and becoming nuisances. Ghana is a soverign state and owes you no explanation on how it runs its affairs. Direct your anger at Yaradua, Obj, and  countless morons that you've allowed to rule and ruin Nigeria. Ghana does not have to deal with such large influx of Nigerians. They are only 20 million and I'm sure thats big enough already for them.
