Three Differences Between Gowon And Ojukwu by gidgiddy: 1:15pm On Jul 07
1. Ojukwu abided by the Aburi to prevent war, Gowon broke the agreement and caused war

2. Ojukwu fought for his freedom and the freedom of his people, Gowon fought so that him and his people could be the eternal slaves of the Northern caliphate

3. Ojukwu lost the war and exited the scene to that peace would come, Gowon won the war, stayed on the scene for 6 years, and Nigeria has known no peace ever since

Go and read books before you come online and disgrace the worthless Awolowo that gave you free education that is useless.

When the troops were in ORE they had already shelled Lagos and Gowon was already getting ready to run away. It was the British that even told him to remain and that they will support him.


So stop amplifying stupid lies told by your worthless elders, who told you that Oduduwa is a fallen angel ..

Nonsense.

Your Awolowo drank RAT poison and died by suicide. That is truly the highest level of COWARDice.

Even after Ojukwu led his Igbo brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers and children to wanton slaughter and miserable kwashiorkor in the name of Biafra this Igbo man still contested to become President of Nigeria, "FUNNY ENOUGH, OJUKWU DIED WRAPPED IN NIGERIA'S FLAG NOT BIAFRAN FLAG. THAT IS THE HEIGHT OF MOCKERY OF THE DEAD .". grin That's brutal, very brutal. So what was he fighting for. Of course his own selfish interest. The foolish and the gullible are tools in the hands of con men.

YOU WERE SCAMMED. Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It would have been better if Ojukwu had exited the scene to prevent war than exiting the scene after suffering devastating defeat that cost more than 3 million lives.

And still yet contested to become the President of Nigeria afterwards. So what was his conviction about Biafra?! It's nothing more than his lust for power.

You can't dictate for a man in power supported by UK,US,EU,AU and Russia expect not to lose.
At the end Gowon had his way right?So the war was needless.Ojukwu should have exited when Aburi accord failed to prevent the suffering and defeat our people went through.

Can't dictate to the man? The man signed an agreement of his own free will. He then went back on the very agreement he sthat was meant to prevent war, and caused war.

It's pretty much what goes on today as Nigerians watch political leaders destroy the country and go back on all they promised while people sit around an do nothing but talk nonsense

Yes he did signed agreement which he refused to implement because probably powers that be told him not to honour the agreement which was unfortunate but should war be the only option even when Ojukwu was not prepared for it?
Nigeria would have been a different place today if that war was prevented from happening.

There was no other option, it was either keep to the signed agreement or fight. Since Gowon could not keep to signed agreement, thr only option was war

Today, Nigeria is even worse than before the war

If only biafran scientists came up with nukes, the war would have ended in few seconds.

This is why I tell Nnamdi Kanu and Simon ekpa to have more scientists and engineers and less of foot soldiers

There is always an option.Ojukwu choosed that option when it was already late in January 1970, he should have chosen that option in 1967 Eastern region wouldn't have suffered a military defeat. I mean the option to runaway.Brig Ogundipe ran away to save his life and that of his people he was smart but you can call him a coward.Going into a war you are not even 10% sure of winning isn't wise nor matter how provoked you maybe.

Biafran scientists would have developed nukes let's leave this for another day , there are other high grade weaponry that are not nukes but can settle the National question when the need arises, weapons like Tsar bomb , B49 etc

if Russia did not have nukes by now America or Europe would have invaded it.

Even developing nuclear power hub in the east will be a game changer

These people who dwell on what Ojukwu did, but never what Gowon did, amaze me. Time has since proved Ojukwu right

The 'one Nigeria' he fought to get out of has since proved to be a monumental disaster

Only supper power nations have acquired nukes(only 8 nations have nukes)...Iran have been struggling to get it for over twenty years now it isn't easy.No African nation have what it takes to be a nuclear power except South Africa for a reason.We should stop ridiculing ourseleves in the public.We haven't solved our basic problems you are talking about nuclear bomb.
Simon Ekpa will mobilize scientists from his base in Finland to develope atomic bomb for his non existing nation grin
You guys should be realistic for once.
