akereconfi: Well, PH where KSW has an abandoned property that he criminally seized from Chief Obi may well be part of Biafra or Lower Niger Federation. If Ogonis choose not to be a part of it, what then becomes of KSaw's ill gotten properties in PH? 1 Like |

Aminat508: How was he a true freedom fighter? Ojukwu was fighting to free him and other minorities of what is now known as the Niger-Delta from Northern Nigerian Hausa-Fulani hegemony, while he was fighting to return to 'one Nigeria'. What happened later? Nigeria then won the war and took all the resources of the Niger-Delta people and dumped toxic waste from Oil exploration on their lands. When Ken Saro Wiwa protested, they hanged him. Ken Saro Wiwa along with other misguided Niger-Deltans like Adaka Boro thought the Igbo man was the problem. By the time they learnt who the real enemy was, death was knocking at the door. Ken Saro Wiwa was a foolish man 9 Likes |

[quote author=donbuchi1 post=38842843]"I was a graduate student when the cataclysmic events of 1966 happened. Apart from my revulsion at the needless murders of the innocent, nothing upset me more than Ojukwu's dishonest formulations and his attempt to kidnap the Ogoni, among others, into his Igbo empire called "biafra." I knew that he pinned his hopes of the economic viability of "biafra" on the oil of the Ogoni and the Ijaw. I rebelled. I became Secretary of a small committee which met nights in Port Harcourt and issued a communique calling on Gowon to create a Rivers State by decree. The same oil and wealth he never enjoyed and Ogonis may never do.[/quot You worked against the growth of your people. I hope you have learnt your lesson and will be willing to work with the Igbo this time. You have the opportunity that ksw never had, a second chance to make things right. 1 Like |

Goodboiyy: So you don't know that Ojukwu consulted the minorities of the Niger-Delta before declaring Biafra? Have you heard about the Eastern Nigeria consultative assembly? After Ken Saro Wiwa,Adaka Boro and David Ejoor fought to return your precious Niger-Delta back to "Hausa/Fulani control", what happened? Adaka and Ken were murdered and David Ejoor was unceremoniously kicked out of the army and retired while the Oil and gas wealth was stolen. Real sweet. Ken led his people into slavery. Read the attachment below to learn how all the Chiefs of the Niger-Delta mandated Ojukwu to declare Biafra 5 Likes 1 Share

I wonder how some igbo reasons. So every other tribe men that didnot support the biafra during the civil war betrayed the igbo? Stop blaming other tribes or regions of nigeria for your loss at the war. Ken Saro Wiwa was among the true fighters that paid the ultimate price for the freedom of the ogonis. |

kingzizzy: Point of Correction.. David Ejoor never signed any part with Ojukwu.. and Delta/Edo state were never part of ur old eastern region.. U keep calling Northerners Evil and Ojukwu Saint but u 4got the Evil ojukwu did to mid-western Region.. Ojukwu even ordered 4 the death of David Ejoor because he never submitted to his dream.. is that the Country you want my People to Belong ?... secondly The Image you showed me above never represented the mind of 80% of Niger Deltans, if it did represented us we would have fought along your army.. The masses never wanted it.. Stop insulting our Heroes because they didn't accept your dream.. Am nt from Ogoni, Am from Delta, But If you ask me, Me Ayo am Proud Of KSW |
