Ogbeni , i didn't write the book . So , dont bore me with your tales by moonlight .

Eastactivist:

What do you expect? So because you didn't write the book we should fold our hands and let the lies fly freely?

Anyways, since you didn't write the book and don't want to emancipate yourself from ignorance then don't act like you are bordered.

DropShot:
Was Ojukwu the Nigerian president to be able to have the power to release Awolowo or any prisoner from prison?

At at the time Awo was in Calabar prison, the civil war had not broken out and Gowon was in charge of the whole country being the president then.

Biafrats and lies are like bread and butter.

Are you implying that sensible people should take your words (a nobody) over that of an authority in the field of Nigeria's history ? TELL ME YOU ARE JOKING!

Last time I checked this is not my words, remember.. Am only a messenger just like you but not a nobody as you are

Opakan2:
Ipod should be declared a terrorist organization..
why is FG still quiet on these guys

Eastactivist:

Why? did they kill your family or bomb your farmland or slaughter and rape your sisters?

pchukwudi:
Gowon was never in charge of the Eastern Region prior to the civil war.

Please quit equating today's Nigeria to that of the pre-civil war era.

Ojukwu made it clear at Aburi that Gowon's clinch on the central government would remain illegal and unacceptable to the government and people of the Eastern Region untill Aguyi Ironsi's fate is determined and announced publicly. And that even if someone else was to assume the position of the Head of State, it would not be Gowon. That was Ojukwu's position.

Gowon DID NOT make Ojukwu the Governor of the Eastern region. Ironsi did.

Gowon was not Ojukwu's mate.

So stop passing off that trash like it's fact. It's not.

Eastactivist:


Please Igbos don't have such history

Besides why will someone of Igbo stock suffer himself to kill a someone already useless and inconsequential

Opakan2:


ask Nnamdi Kanu that was campaigning upandan for igbos to kill yorubas and other non-igbos
the weapons that were caught on them.. was to kill igbos right?

I know what I'm saying.. IPOB is an upcoming terrorist organization that must be crushed now before it gets too late

Eastactivist:

That was for self defense.
The killing we are hearing in the east today by the force are from these set of people you mentioned, which that guns if realised are acquired for.

People like you are inconsequential, killing you won't make a difference and you know that

Opakan2:


IPOB and Bokoharm reason alike.. they are very easy to brainwash

tell am igbo man to kill himself for biafra, he won't hesitate.. imagine telling such person to kill someone else.. won't he gladly do it?

it's like you don't know your people.. as events unfold, you'll see for yourself

Good day everyone. I read with amusement a certain release from a demented mind this afternoon about how the Yorubas have been the clog in the wheel of their aspirations . I would certainly not waste my energy and time dissecting the press release as I have already made up my mind to take the the release for what it is ; fabrication of a mad man .
But the main reason for my intervention is to correct the willful historical misrepresentation cum distortion of facts and events scattered in the said press release .
NAIRALAND is a very good source of information to a lot of folks out there and posterity would not favour us if we allow demented minds to revise our history .
THE IPOB clown said Ojukwu released Awolowo from Calabar prison . THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE LIE . This issue has been trashed out several times on nairaland when bright minds still held sway in the political section .
According to MAX SIOLLUN, the author of OIL ,POLITICS AND VIOLENCE (NIGERIA'S MILITARY COUP CULTURE 1966-1976) , HE STATED IN PAGE 112 OF THE BOOK THAT YAKUBU GOWON WAS THE ONE WHO RELEASED CHIEF AWOLOWO FROM PRISON .
Conclusively, all hands must be on deck by every omoluabis.The onus is on us to burst every propaganda against the Yoruba race by the terrorist IPOB as a lie repeated too often may be taken as a truth by unsuspected persons .
Anyone who has a reliable history from a credible historian as to who release Awolowo from Calabar prison should not hesitate to educate us with it .

Did Ojukwu recognize the illegitimate authority of Gowon.?
