Our brave and courageous fathers. These were men of valour!!! They fought hard even when the odds were stacked against them. Britain, Russia, Egypt, Syria, ECOWAS etc backed Nigeria with heavy armaments, logistics and personnel. The Biafrans were completely blockaded yet we fought back with all our might for good 3 years!!! Which other group in Nigeria or even Africa can do that? If it were a particular group in Nigeria, they will all run into Benin republic before the first shot is fired They lost a whole city without a fight 41 Likes 5 Shares |

It's like it was in this battle for Owerri that Obasanjo escaped with bullets in his buttocks That's Onitsha road approaching Control, I can see the roof of Maria Assumpta Cathedral in the distance. Afonjas keep hiding behind Nigeria to challenge Igbos as if they can stand Igbos in warfare. They even lack courage and fighting spirit. Even ijaws will subdue them if they're left to fight each other 25 Likes 2 Shares |

I watched the video and the only thing I saw was some soldiers shooting at emptiness. They were not even aiming or targeting anything which shows there was nothing on sight.. Probably they were just in that mood of shooting for fun.. Anyways, what I like about this video is at least, some young Igbos would get to understand more that it was a war between both sides. There was no victims nor victors! Even tho 3m wasted off! 9 Likes 1 Share |

43Ronin: I watched an old documentary where the then British prime minister, Harold Wilson secretly ordered the loading of ships with tanks, artillery, bombs and guns for delivery to Nigerian army. He was desperate to protect their former colony and the resources. It was indeed a very cruel genocidal war. Biafrans were blockaded on land, air and sea yet the opponents kept receiving shiploads of ammunition, personnel and logistics. 2 Likes |

ruggedtimi: Lol, is that the lies they told you? China requested that Ojukwu should grant them rights to the crude oil in Biafra before they would support, Ojukwu refused and that was it. France never supported Biafra, if they did, they would have used Cameroun to supply us ammunition. Tanzania? Belgium? Lol, Tanzania and Haiti only gave moral support, they never supported tangibly and neither did they have the resources to do so. 3 Likes 1 Share |

MrEverest: After being chased out from every square inch of the occupied Niger Delta in less than 6months. The war was supposed to end the minute the Niger Delta was liberated from you orcs but for several reasons Gowon continued the war at great opposition from his war cabinet. You should ask why members of Ojukwu's war cabinet begged Gowon to come and liberate them from Ojukwu's tyranny . 8 Likes 1 Share |

MrEverest:Lol. The won in Owerri indeed! Stop concocting mere propaganda bro. If youโre interested in the Biafra war, go read about it. I think several Igbo authors wrote about it. It was brutal on the Igbo side! Anyways.. no need to argue bro! War is never a good thing but it seem humans will always fight wars because disagreements would always pop up at one point in time..

StreetFight: Lol, someone that can't even practice their own culture on their land, is here talking where men are involved. Have you guys fought any war in your history? It's not as if you haven't had reasons to fight, but due to fear and lack of men who are bold and courageous. Igbos that fought a bitter war still have their lands in tact, but you that never fought a war lost an entire city?! Do you know the implications of not being allowed to practice your culture in the land of your forefathers? That can only happen to slaves!!! 1 Like 1 Share |

GeneralPula: Lol, you need to read about the war and gain more knowledge. I have read lots of it including versions written by Igbos, foreigners and other Nigerians. Owerri was lost by Biafrans and later recaptured by them. I think it was in 1968. Even Obasanjo was said to have been shot when Nigerian army were retreating. |
