Gowon is the man that instituted the divide and rule tactic that has very much being weaponized and is being used against us. He killed this country through institutionalisation of tribalism. Triablism = Gowon |

Happy birthday great icon.For those still reigning curse and spreading death rumours about Gawon woe unto u. Thank God history is there.some people can be hypocritical in all they do forgeting that their tribes men pulled the hit that eliminated prominent leaders in the north the likes of Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa belewa etc.So this bone of contention dates back to ages long.I celebrates and wish rt.Gen. Yakubu gawon and may what ever u wish him this day be your portion |

I still can't believe none of these guys could fix the epileptic power supply in Nigeria. It's one of the things I hate most about this pathetic country......The power supply was even better when I was much younger, now to see light for 2hours a day na problem. |

Antoeni: The funny irony about this is that it was Nigerian army that fired the first shot all in the name of a police action. There was an agreement in Aburi that required Nigeria to adopt a confederation system of government similar to what is obtainable in spain. who reneged on the agreement after coming back to Lagos and meeting Awolowo and other Nigerian diplomats? when you are honest with your responses you have your answer. 3 Likes |
