Typical BS from flatinoes.

I wonder what he saw when his homie was in power and intent on making the country, one?

He didn't declare freedom for his people then and in fact, when adaka boro seeks to balkanize the country, this same pseudo-soothsayer make certain to bring the rebellion down.

Stop talking nonsense. When Ironsi was in power there was no wholesale killing of people. The circumstances that informed Ojukwu's decision to declare the independence of his people were not manifest in 6 months Ironsi was in power

Your statement about Isaac Boro is hypocritical. There are many people who think that the federal government was right to fight Ojukwu for declaring secession. The same people now find issue with the federal Government fighting Adaka Boro for declaring the same thing! Why the hypocrisy? So it is Ojukwu that is good to fight but not Adaka Boro?


Get sense man nobody is a fool here

T9ksy:



Of course, there was no killings when your homie was in power......yeye dey smell. When your homeboy unilaterally promulgate the obnoxious and gratuitous unification decree, there was riots in the north whereby many of kinsmen were slaughtered in protest.
Ojukwu didn't conceive biafra then o rather he was still a great believer in One nigeria however few months later oncw ironsi has been depatched to the great beyond, viola Ojukwu start seeing visions of biafra.


Abeg STFU! If it was okay for the federal govt of (eastern) nigeria to fight adaka boro for declaring secession THEN it ought to equally okay for the same federal govt of (Northern) Nigeria to squash Ojukwu's intransigence.

kingzizzy:


All of this is the nonsense the Lagos/Ibadan 'kpako' media have been spewing for years and has long been done away with. Every military regime in the world rules by decree, that's how they roll, Ironsi no exception. No matter how obnoxious anyone thinks decree 34 was, it was always a temporary thing that would have been jettisoned when democracy returned.

It is however amazing that people were angry and rioting because of decree 34 but when subsequent military governments, such as that of Gowon, enacted far worse decrees that balkanized Nigeria into 12 states, took away resource control and fiscal federation, the same people were very welcoming.

It then shows that decree 34 was not the problem, the problem was that it was an Igbo man who enacted it. Had Ironsi been a Northerner, they would not have found decree 34 so obnoxious.

Ojukwu was a long time firm believer in 'one Nigeria'. Despite the wholesale senseless killings of his people, Ojukwu still went to Aburi to discuss keeping Nigeria one. It was when the federal government of Gowon reneged on that agreement that Ojukwu realised that there was a blatant attempt by the Northerners to dominate everyone and declared Biafra to protect his people from 'Islamisation and Fulanization'

Point of correction, it was the federal government that fought Isaac Boro, not the government of Eastern Nigeria. The Nigerian military is under the control of the federal government.

T9ksy:



Were we ever One? Hell no! Both Sardunna and Awo were vehemently against one Nigeria except you covetous folks. Zik and his people were the only ones singing the discordant song of "One Nigeria, One Africa.

Of course, northerners (most especially) rioted as they have made it known unequivocally that they do not want one Nigeria with you greedy folks but Ironsi went ahead regardless.


The north would not promulgate decree 34 as they were against the notion of one united nigeria.


The federal govt that fought Ojukwu was headed and controlled by northerners whilst the federal govt that fought Adaka boro was headed and also controlled by the ibos.

kingzizzy:


Let's just for the sake of argument assume that Zik and the Igbos wanted one united Nigeria and Awo and the Sarduana did not want this. Why then did they join Igbos in one united Nigeria? Why was it that Awo and Sarduana were against one Nigeria yet Awo led the Western Region delegates while Sarduana led the Northern delegation to London for the 1958 constitutional conference that ushered in independence in 1960? Or did Zik put a gun to their head and force them to be part of Nigeria?

That's the nature of military coups, there are usually casualties and the leaders are usually from the same section of the country. It's been like that all over Africa and severally in Nigeria






Go and google Gowons decree 14 of 1967. If you think Ironsi's decree 34 of 1966 was bad, Gowons decree 14 was a hundred times worse. Gowons decree shredded the 4 Regions, replaced them with 12 weak states, stripped the regions of resource control. Yet it well accepted by Nigerians.

The hypocrisy in Nigeria is too much. When an Igbo man does something he is criminalised, but when a Northerner does the same or even worse, he is well accepted

They said Igbos conducted a coup and killed the leaders of other Regions, but when the Northerners did the same thing on a far worse scale 6 months later, nobody complained

They said that Ironsi introduced decree 34 that destroyed Nigeria, but a year later when Gowon introduced decree 14 , which was a hundred times worse, nobody complained

They said that Ironsi and Ojukwu stopped Adaka Boro from seceding, but when Gowon was trying to stop Ojukwu from seceding, nobody complained


When it is an Igbo man they will complain to the high heavens, when a Northerner does the same or worse, they will accept and never complain

I laugh in Fufulde
