Lawrence Akpu: Ex-Biafra Soldier With Bullet In His Chest by Youngadvocate(m): 8:17pm On May 20, 2017 |
by Patrick Egwu Ejike Sixty-six-year-old Lawrence Akpu is sitting on a black wheelchair which makes squeaky sound at each move – a sign that it’s in a very bad shape. Hanging on the wall are black and white picture frames and calendars of Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu, leader of the defunct state of Biafra who led his people exactly fifty years ago to a three-year full blown-bloody civil war against the Nigerian government following the massacre and genocide of about 50,000 easterners in the north after the counter-coup of 1966 by General Yakubu Gowon. One of the calendars of Ojukwu on the wall read “Historic day: Proclamation of the Republic of Biafra by the military governor, Lt Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu, 30th May, 1967”. https://www.google.com.ng/amp/s/ynaija.com/disabled-biafran-veterans-i-bullet-in-my-chest/amp/ 22 Likes 4 Shares

BrutalJab: Yeah...brave man. But what baffles me is why would a leader send his followers to the war front with only FIVE f**king bullets? 186 Likes 8 Shares |

War favors no one We only need to accept that Nigeria is not a country but just a geographical expression We are too diversified to chart one direction The best is to Balkanize this British mistake Or the masses shall continue to suffer and commit suicide in their quest to escape hardship 73 Likes 6 Shares |

Alariwo2: You join hands with friends and like minds And not with foes with different cultural religious differences It leads to chaos... Underdevelopment .. Hunger.. All the indices you see in Nigeria today Nigeria have been hell on earth A den of injustice An epitome of corruption A historic mistake The onus is on all of us to rectify this catastrophe and Balkanize this country We have nothing in common 118 Likes 15 Shares |

Ojukwu is an unsuccessful Coward!!! Tell me 1 thing Ojukwu did as far as Nigeria is concerned. And I will tell you 10 things Awolowo did. Tell me again that Awolowo took rat poison and I will tell you of an Ojukwu who led his people into the pit they'll never come out from in 100years to come! 63 Likes 4 Shares |

KidsNEXTdoor:You're hypocritically inconsistent & incoherent. Earlier you stated that Wars favor no one only for you to recoil as saying "without war there will be no peace " But I sincerely suggest the war path will be your best option, let's see how many more bodies we will count. I.e 6 million +counting. 9 Likes |
