Ojukwu, The Coward Secessionist-

Dimka Odumegwu Ojukwu of Biafra-Biafaa or Bia-Kpara, Ogoni version! With due respect to reasonable Igbos and the public. It isn't proper to rejoice over anyone's death. I'm also not doing so, rather pointing to the man Ojukwu. I hope readers would understand my truth that can be found through history and can't be disproved otherwise.

Ojukwu, who was good in his own right couldn't stand Ken Saro-Wiwa and his truth about Ogoni-saving our people from Biafra and Ojukwu's madness and greed (popularly known as Nigerian-Biafran Civil War, 1967-1970), was the number one coward.



Ojukwu sold Biafra due to his greed for oil and disrespect for Ogonis and other minorities of today's Niger delta. Biafra was mostly harshed due to the presence of Ogoni/Niger delta oil. If it succeeded Ogonis, who were already enslaved by Igbos in Ogoni land will be registered slaves today. Saro-Wiwa saw this and fought against it. Thus his crime at the hands of Ojukwu and other Biafran praise-singers who then sought Saro-Wiwa's head.

Meanwhile, Ojukwu ran away from his people at a critical moment into exile. Millions of innocent Igbos (Ogonis and other minorities also died in numbers at home and Igbo camps) killed while he ran away.

No wonder seasoned Igbos, including late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe refused to support Ojukwu and his Biafran insanity!

Though Ojukwu returned from Ivory Coast under Shehu Shagari or so. He couldn't have the opportunity to fight to revive Biafra again. This was contrary to the saying: he who fight and run away lives to fight another day.

Saro-Wiwa stood by his people to the end. He's a global hero while Ojukwu is the Igbo coward!

As mentioned inter alia, death is an inevitable end, so not proper to rejoice over the death of others. I'm not rejoicing over Ojukwu's death. Ojukwu's death, however, can't come without the truth about him, unlike the lies he told abroad about Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis. I hope readers may understand.



Because Ojukwu was cheap, greedy, yet with one of the best education but knew nothing to do with it, he's bribed by the Federal government of Nigeria (under Sanni Abacha), sponsored abroad to justify the world's environmental and human rights hero's (Saro-Wiwa) unjust hanging.

The coward in Ojukwu couldn't get away with that trash! He's bathed in rotten eggs; a high profile disgrace given in the West, when he went to London justifying Saro-Wiwa's unjust death of Nov. 10, 1995.

Today, Ojukwu is left to the Igbos of his kind and some Nigerians such as Goodluck Jonathan, who love violence and has already said, according to Sahara Reporters' Nov. 26 report, "Ojukwu's place in Nigerian history is assured."

Anyone still unsure that Jonathan and his Nigerian cabal hate Saro-Wiwa and Ogoni? How shameful to see a country love and honor violence and trash nonviolence and intellectual discussions, arguments for rights (as with Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis) and freedoms to the cutters!

That is the Nigeria run by the so-called majority ethnic groups for you. We can see Boko Haram like Ojukwu's Biafra, in action, supported also by Jonathan and his Hausa counterparts. We can see Jonathan sit and look confused, not sure of what to do with Boko (like he paid off Niger delta militants whose agitation was just, if not their greed and unintellectual approach) begging for help from America.

Finally, is Jonathan, one of the Ojukwu-Biafran violent praise-singer confused about the peaceful Ogonis, their just agitation for political, social and economic justice, ruined environment? No! He and the Federal government is hardened, waiting for a period when news may come that all Ogonis are extinct due to environmental degradation and government, $hell's inaction and stupidity. Shame on Nigeria, because Ogoni, which is older than Nigeria will live to shame the Ojukwus and its Nigerian oppressors!

And now under Nigeria Ogoni pepoe are free born. It was Ojukwu that killed Ken saro wiwa.
Some of these minorities in the south are so dumb. Even in Nigeria today after the war they are still being and waxing anger against the Igbo as if it's the Igbo is their problem. With all the herdsmen and evil politicians ravaging their country they still blame the Igbo.
All the ethnic group in this country is blaming the Igbo. They swear for una. All these are all show of jealous and greed.

[quote author=generationz post=87207557]Ojukwu would still cry in his grave that he didn't join the coup.

I'm sure he wanted to be leader and not take orders from anyone.

He still went on to secede which was worse off than the coupe that would have just taken a few lives and brought sanity to the country.

From where did you get this trash? Pls show us a copy of the Agreement that was signed between Baba Awolowo n Ojukwu. Would such important decision would have been verbal? If you don't have an ideal as how to move this country forward or promote good inter-tribal relationship pls hang up.

And when the opportunity to sever ties came, guess who fought for one Nigeria. No, not Lugard. That's right Nnamdi Azikiwe.

Not just one opportunity, but plenty. He thought the Igbos had firm control of Nigeria.

You can blame Lugard all you want, bit you are reaping the karma right now.

If Azikiwe had allowed the secession clause into the constitution, his children wouldn't have fought a war where millions of them died and his children's children's children won't be on Nairaland today screaming for freedom.

From your lengthy write up above,I can see a story based on maysay rather than on reality of what truly happened.You based your story on assumptions that the Igbo's will enslave the Ogonis which is not true.If you're hell bent on it,did it happen? No! And other base less assumptions and fallacies you've just dropped up here.Let's be rational here,running away is what you do when the heat is high in war/Military to save your head for another day.If you can remember your history vividly clear,there are so many other people that did same all over the World.You didn't even mention Gowon who took over from his Superior and at the same time broke the Aburi Accord.And also,how Gowon created the present day problems by increasing the sharing formula to favour some over others and abolishing the regional systems of Govt which could have helped us now to develop better.Guy,put hatred and bitterness away and rationalize what really happened,you will know that Gowon really created this problem.

Even Achebe did not lie as much you did, Op.

cheesy

One thing about igbos is that they regard insolent disobedience as a virtue. Ojukwu would never have supporters if he were born a non-igbo.

The stubborn and self-destructive behaviour that made him abandon a good, structured life as a businessman is the very same behaviour that caused the avoidable death of other stubborn impressionable igbos.

You people should have foreseen the disaster in following a man like that. But you’re igbos. You actually love such behaviour. Look at how Kanu is using your heads. He will use his mouth to incite other tribes to hate you then run away to England to enjoy himself.

Ojukwu was delusional, thinking he could take on the rest of the country. That’s fine. But for a whole nation of igbos to buy into that delusion is something worthy of research. How could so many people suspend their common sense to pursue a lost cause? grin

The British officers at Kaduna kept wondering what an Oxford graduate was doing as a private in the Army and sent him for officers course in England. Ojukwu returned in 1957 and was commissioned a second Lieutenant, the first graduate to join the Nigerian Army.

Ojukwu rose rapidly through the Army. He was promoted to Lieutenant in 1958, Captain in 1960, Major in 1962 and Lieutenant Colonel in 1964.

Ojukwu was commander of the 4th battalion, Kano, when the first coup happened in January 1966.


As the coup unfolded, Major Nzeogwu called on Ojukwu to join the coup to which Ojukwu refused. Ojukwus refusal to join Nzeogwu is one of the major reasons why Nzeogwu's coup eventually failed.

General Ironsi then siezed power and appointed Ojukwu Military Governor of the Eastern Region.

6 months later, mid-level officers of the Nigerian of Northern extraction conducted a coup that led to the overthrow and killing of Ironsi, and the installment of Lt Col Yakubu Gowon as head of state. The coup also greenlighted a pogrom in which over 30,000 Easterners, mainly Igbos, were killed all over Nigeria, particularly in the North.


The inability of Gowon to stop the killings, the resentment in the Eastern Region against his government and the fact that Ojukwu was senior to Gowon caused bad blood between both men

The crisis became so bad that the then President of Ghana, General Joe Ankrah, intervened and invited both Gowon and Ojukwu to his Hiltop Mansion in Aburi, Ghana, for peace talks in January of 1967.

After two days of discussions, Ojukwu and Gowon signed an agreement that was to be known as the Aburi Accord.


A few months after their return from Ghana, Gowon broke the Aburi accord they signed by issuing decree 14 of 1967 which abolished all the 4 Regions, created 12 states, reversed the fical federalism practiced, changed the revenue sharing formular, all in a bid to increase the power of the North over the rest of Nigeria

For Ojukwu, it was the last straw. Ojukwu convened the Eastern Nigerian Consultative Forum, a body that comprised of all the chiefs and head of the 20 provinces that made up the Eastern Region. They sat and discussed for 2 days and mandated Ojukwu to declare the Eastern Region a separate country. On the 30th of May 1967, Ojukwu declared the Eastern Region a separate country called the Republic of Biafra.


In retaliation, Gowon declared war. The war raged on for 3 years and ended in January 1970 with Ojukwu handing over to his deputy, General Effiong, flying into exile in Ivory Coast and the subsequent surrender of Biafra.

Ojukwu later returned from exile 12 years later. He died in London in 2011 aged 78. His burial remains the greatest ever witnessed in Nigeria

Ojukwu is still revered by most Igbos because they believe he fought for their freedom.

Anyone still unsure that Jonathan and his Nigerian cabal hate Saro-Wiwa and Ogoni? How shameful to see a country love and honor violence and trash nonviolence and intellectual discussions, arguments for rights (as with Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis) and freedoms to the cutters!

That is the Nigeria run by the so-called majority ethnic groups for you. We can see Boko Haram like Ojukwu's Biafra, in action, supported also by Jonathan and his Hausa counterparts. We can see Jonathan sit and look confused, not sure of what to do with Boko (like he paid off Niger delta militants whose agitation was just, if not their greed and unintellectual approach) begging for help from America.

Finally, is Jonathan, one of the Ojukwu-Biafran violent praise-singer confused about the peaceful Ogonis, their just agitation for political, social and economic justice, ruined environment? No! He and the Federal government is hardened, waiting for a period when news may come that all Ogonis are extinct due to environmental degradation and government, $hell's inaction and stupidity.

Re: 22-Year-Old Ojukwu And His Aunty, Winifred, On His Return From Oxford In 1955 by Guide777(m): 9:27am On Mar 06, 2020

Below is a picture of a 22 year old, Biafran warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu and his aunty, Winifred Ojukwu, shortly after he returned to Nigeria in 1955 on completing his studies at Oxford university. Ojukwu bagged a Degree in History.

Ojukwu attended Kings College Lagos, Epsom College, Surrey, England and the prestigious Oxford University, England.

By the time Ojukwu returned to Nigeria in 1955, his father had become one of the richest businessmen in the country with a business empire that spanned Transportation, Banking, Retail, Construction and Manufacturing.


Ojukwu's father took him to his corporate headquarters and showed him a well furnished airconditioned office, offering him a top position in his business organisation. Ojukwu turned his father down, telling him he wanted to make his own way in life. Ojukwu eventually secured a job in the civil service as an assistant district officer of Udi division, just outside Enugu. In 1956, Ojukwu was posted to Aba. It was at Aba that Ojukwu attended a party that would change the course of his life. At this party, Ojukwu met a young Yoruba man called Adeyinka Adebayo, who had just been newly commissioned as an officer of the Nigerian Army. Adebayo told Ojukwu that the Army was in the process of being indigenized and their was a shortage of officers. A few weeks after this party, Ojukwu was promoted to District Officer and posted to Calabar.

On hearing that his son had been posted to Calabar, Ojukwus influential father prevailed on the authorities to cancel the posting. When Ojukwu learnt of what his father had done, he angrily resigned his job and drove all the way to Kaduna where he enlisted into the Nigerian Army as a lowly recruit.
You cannot change the course of history with this your stupid write-up. How can you convince anyone that after your Ogoni Mandela betrayed Ojukwu , he has to end up being hanged by his own allies. I believe you have not realized, as many sensible Ogonis has done, that KSW brainwashed you guys that Igbo's wanted to enslave Ogoni, and take their oil. Even Wiwa has realized this the moment fell into the trap of Abacha and his goons.
I hope Ogoni is now a free nation with a full control of her resources?

Ojukwu, The Coward Secessionist-

Dimka Odumegwu Ojukwu of Biafra-Biafaa or Bia-Kpara, Ogoni version! With due respect to reasonable Igbos and the public. It isn't proper to rejoice over anyone's death. I'm also not doing so, rather pointing to the man Ojukwu. I hope readers would understand my truth that can be found through history and can't be disproved otherwise.

Ojukwu, who was good in his own right couldn't stand Ken Saro-Wiwa and his truth about Ogoni-saving our people from Biafra and Ojukwu's madness and greed (popularly known as Nigerian-Biafran Civil War, 1967-1970), was the number one coward.



Ojukwu sold Biafra due to his greed for oil and disrespect for Ogonis and other minorities of today's Niger delta. Biafra was mostly harshed due to the presence of Ogoni/Niger delta oil. If it succeeded Ogonis, who were already enslaved by Igbos in Ogoni land will be registered slaves today. Saro-Wiwa saw this and fought against it. Thus his crime at the hands of Ojukwu and other Biafran praise-singers who then sought Saro-Wiwa's head.

Meanwhile, Ojukwu ran away from his people at a critical moment into exile. Millions of innocent Igbos (Ogonis and other minorities also died in numbers at home and Igbo camps) killed while he ran away.

No wonder seasoned Igbos, including late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe refused to support Ojukwu and his Biafran insanity!

Though Ojukwu returned from Ivory Coast under Shehu Shagari or so. He couldn't have the opportunity to fight to revive Biafra again. This was contrary to the saying: he who fight and run away lives to fight another day.

Saro-Wiwa stood by his people to the end. He's a global hero while Ojukwu is the Igbo coward!

As mentioned inter alia, death is an inevitable end, so not proper to rejoice over the death of others. I'm not rejoicing over Ojukwu's death. Ojukwu's death, however, can't come without the truth about him, unlike the lies he told abroad about Saro-Wiwa and Ogonis. I hope readers may understand.



Because Ojukwu was cheap, greedy, yet with one of the best education but knew nothing to do with it, he's bribed by the Federal government of Nigeria (under Sanni Abacha), sponsored abroad to justify the world's environmental and human rights hero's (Saro-Wiwa) unjust hanging.

The coward in Ojukwu couldn't get away with that trash! He's bathed in rotten eggs; a high profile disgrace given in the West, when he went to London justifying Saro-Wiwa's unjust death of Nov. 10, 1995.

keep deceiving yourself, this is the 21st century were freedom prevails over slavery. we don't want you here in the south because you have no value to add other than barbarism and backwardness, you can have your islamic country in the north, but you can't have even an inch in the south bc we won't let you. arabic can be easily wiped off and what ever reason you talked about can be overruled and the time is now. if you like gather all your barbaric weapons from all corners of the world and spread yourself everywhere. your archaic craftiness will surely disappoint and fail you, A generation that will not tolerate your nonsense anymore has arisen, at the right time you will receive the unexpected shock that you deserve.

I was following you with keen interest, until i noticed you were mumbling jumbling facts. Its obvious your issue with Ojukwu stems solely from is perceived handling of Sarowiwas agitation. Nobody is perfect. that is one side of Ojukwus life. Sarowiwa wasn't even a factor during the war, but it's a known fact that many minority tribes in the eastern region sold out too easily to Gowons government. this could have gotten Ojukwu offended. Biafra had justifiable reason to seek secession when it did. and it was even as a result of referendum. Ogonis representative gave their nod to the idea.

I felt the undeniable powerful impact of SOUND EDUCATION in the life of young Ojukwu.

It librates ones mind, body and soul.
It empowers one with his/her rights and privileges as a human being.

But sadly, very sadly, all these can effectively materialize in a WORKING/FUNCTIONAL SOCIETY.

Unfortunately, the necessary functional society ends up being a mirage to generations upon generations.

The lowest point of it, is seeing liberated minds/beings defending and or prompting vices that ensures our dream of a FUNCTIONAL SOCIETY remains an illusion/dream to their unborn generations.

I was following you with keen interest, until i noticed you were mumbling jumbling facts. Its obvious your issue with Ojukwu stems solely from is perceived handling of Sarowiwas agitation. Nobody is perfect. that is one side of Ojukwus life. Sarowiwa wasn't even a factor during the war, but it's a known fact that many minority tribes in the eastern region sold out too easily to Gowons government. this could have gotten Ojukwu offended. Biafra had justifiable reason to seek secession when it did. and it was even as a result of referendum. Ogonis representative gave their nod to the idea.
why Ibos see everything through the prism of Osu cast system

Educated and born with sliver spoon in his mouth still led the fight against marginalization of his people.Heroes never die because their histories immortalize them.

But the said Hero came back years later after the civil war and contested for the seat of President of the same country he fought, while his people that are hailing him now were theseame people that stabbed him in the back by not voting for him.

I thought he died at an older age. It was nice to see he was adamant with decisions in life. I wonder why he refused to stay in position and get captured by the Nigerian force. The real heroes die in war, cowards live to tell tales.
dead men tell no tales
