Oga I'm sure a core northerner advised him to do that same way abacha advices saro wiwa

That's their way ...same way north caused the issue between awolowo and zik , same when they pushed tinubu against south same way they used n dumped rochas same way they used ameachi and about to dump him

After u do it they would reward u with a very big but useless position , vice president , fiance Minister , speaker of house of reps , SGF , chief of defence staff , mins of information etc

You are so myopic.
Both regions need each other to win presidential election. You have to win 25% of votes in 24states and majority of votes to become president. The northern states are 19 and some are not fully northerners.

You are on point, Ojukwu started the civil war by trying to take port Harcourt, and crossing into Ore from Onitsha, and these states are not biafra states. The federal government had to respond, these incidents happened rather quickly, he was just pushing his luck, as he neither has what it takes to defend his home base, talk more of taking other states, but like I said, the FG responded rapidly. Most ibo youths don't know history, Ibos carried out the first coup https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_Nigerian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat killing Sardauna Ahmadu Bello, and Tafawa Balewa, along with their wives. These were not just political, but religious leaders of the Northern constituents, the North carried out a revenge.

Biafran army eventually invaded Benin, what were they doing trying to annex Benin or is this invasion part of the Aburi agreement?.
Ojukwu started the needless war, no one should blame Oba of Benin.

if you are igbo, remove all form of ethnic bias and study the pre and post independent Nigeria and understand the Nigeria state better, because it would help you talk the Nigeria political system with authority and people will respect you

ojukwu will always be a disappointment, reading how the civil war started, I hate him more. till date I don't know why Igbo see someone that destroy millions of lives as hero



it's obvious Igbo see bad people as more valuable and Hero. the inequity of justice is the foundation of the civil war, bias in justice of Gen Aguiyi Ironsi of not publicly persecuting those involved in the first coup (killing of western and Northern leaders) if Michael Okpara had been killed during the attacked, the breach of trust wouldn't have escalated to the level Northerners were left with no choice than to retaliate



now to the civil war? why attack ore and Ph when you don't have enough mechanism for war? you Igbo made average aboki who once believed in secession to see secession as war


the Genesis of Nigeria problem is caused by Igbo, you people put the rest of Nigerians in the hand of aboki with the propose of unitary of govt. thank God ironsi died at that time, he could have done more of silly things just to justify one Nigeria



we are in this mess together

Lol.

He didn't cause it per se. (The major actors in the civil war could have chosen to go another direction)

But yes, he did facilitate it and the subsequent rot and dysfunctionality we are facing in Nigeria today.

Do good always cos, the evil that men do lives after them.

But this action here doesn't show he doesn't like the igbos, it might be that he likes nigeria the way it was then, it's not about only igbos then and even now, I think what he thinks today or after matters more than the action he took then. Just that we can't know

How can you say Ojukwu attacked Port Harcourt?
Was Port Harcourt your father's compound?
