Asaba massacre is a very terrible tragedy that should have never happened. Mr lawyer, you have actually said nothing and point of correction those people killed bec they're Igbos by wicked Nigerian soldiers were Biafrans as at then and no matter how Asaba tried to change their colors, heights, weights etc those demons in Nigeria will still see them as Igbos. That's why after 56 years of that atrocities Nigeria doesn't regret their actions.

[@sunnyyande378]

@mrnelson3855, this is the problem with the Ibos. The people who were killed were the people of Asaba. I know a lot of Ibos were killed in the East, but Ibos should stop claiming that they are the only victim of the war. The most people who surffered the war were the people of the Mid-west. The Biafran soldiers killed them on their way to Ore. The Biafran soldiers also commited so much attrocities on their way back from Ore. Why do you think the Midwest supported the federal troops? They did because of the attricities that the Ibos committed when they were briefly incharge of the Midwest.

[@augustineiwueze4515]

​@@sunnyyande378Am convinced you are not a Nigerian, if YORUBA people claim those Kwara natives are their people and the Hausa/Fulani also claim in Benue, people from there linked to them then Asaba , Ika,people remain a crime to mention by the ibos as their brothers and sisters.

[@angelicakweku5293]

​@@sunnyyande378...Una no dey Taya? Haven't you divided Igbos enough? Who told you, Biafrans murdered Asaba people? Your Muritala Mohammed did!!!! Stop distorting history.

[@Kijspyjaphccs]

​​​@@angelicakweku5293Biafrans also committed atrocities. Why did Ojukwu put an ibo man as the new head of mid west region after removing David Ejoor. What about the first-ever coup in Nigeria, where igbos killed the leaders of other regions except their OWN region

[@Kijspyjaphccs]

Asaba was not Biafra, but the people might be Igbos, know the difference.

[@ekeneenyi6879]

Hypocrite in highest order, chukwkuma kaduna nzeogwu he is from where? Asaba people were killed because of the role chukwkuma nzeogwu played

[@gentlemanedotv]

They were killed because oyuku invaded Nigeria through Asaba.

[@fidelisogirie8590]

​@@gentlemanedotvyou will not die well

[@mistyfields-h7w]

It was said that asaba people were praising Nigeria when the troops arrived and give them a place to sleep at night Nigeria soldiers were killed and later they found out that they sabotage the Nigeria soldier to the biafia army to kill Nigerian soldiers

[@bernardjay-rw6uj]

Nzeogwu a Delta Ibo from Okpanam.

[@holymichael24]

Asaba massacre those that where killed are Biafrans, mir chuke is wrong by saying that those that where killed are not Biafrans and Mir chuke let me tell u one thing u don't know if u don't believe in Biafran but believe it that you're an igbo man check your name and ur surname, and have u ever see yorubas or hausas answering an igbo name

[@nduodiaka-ph9sl]

I am from ubuluku in delta state. My Ancesary DNA result came back as igbo and some Bantu in central Africa showing where our Ancesary migrated from.

[@orangeman7379]

This man is biased with history.. He said ASaba is not Biafra, but Joe Achuzia, Biafran Army col is from Asaba while Nzeowgu who hails from okpanam less than 3killometre from Asaba was pronounced a Biafran by Nigeria...Justice for ASABA victims

[@FredrickIrubor]

Check historical maps, Asaba was part of the midwest, the midwest remained in Nigeria during the war.

[@adekunleolusanya4137]

Victor Banjo, a Yoruba man was also a Biafran commander. In fact, he led the repulsion of Nigerian forces towards Lagos, what almost became an advancement to 'take Lagos'. A good number of non-Igbos fought on Biafra side based on personal conviction. It doesn't make them Igbos

[@echezonaazubike8054]

This so called Lawyer is talking Bullshit, I was cringing hearing him spill trash. Asaba People were killed because they are Igbos, even if today they may say they are Anioma but it is clear they the Hausa Fulani led supported by the Yoruba invaders saw them as Igbo kits and skins. Chukwuma Nzeogu from Okpanam in the so called present day Anioma Led the First COUP but it was called an Igbo Coup not an Anioma Coup. Igbos should unite dont let then divide us

[@FredrickIrubor]

It is important to never forget this atrocity. Innocent boys and men, civilian Nigerians were massacred by the Nigerian troops in Nigerian territory during the civil war. I will never forget.

[@philipuchechukwuokechukwu5813]

May the souls of heroes rest in peace

[@houseofpraiseevangelismhop710]

They were not heroes but decieved innocent victims.

[@chinenyemartin1424]

The truth is The blood thirsty soldiers hated NZEOGWU and Achuzia. You are their relatives. Then you want to go and welcome the blood thirsty soldiers. No be juju be that. You just made their genocidal job easier. They killed them because they were Biafrans . QED. May they rest in peace

[@frankliniwu4643]

Radio and television station should stop using Biafra and Nigeria as yerstic to divert the real issues of Nigeria, war is still coming again whether you like it or not get prepared

[@leonardorjioffor6683]

This man is still as sick as those people massacred in that heinous crime, he is still not seen his self as an Igbo man, let him keep enjoying his ignorance and see if he ignorance will change the fact that Asaba people are 100% Igbos, what an hypocrites of the highest level. The saddest thing about this man's invitation here is that he ended up not saying any reasonable on the whole interview, what a nonsense interview without any serious points driven out of it.

[@user-fg7hv6pn5l]

You are huffing and puffing like a raving lunatic. Asaba is ethnically Igbo but NOT part of Biafra. Your lord and saviour Ojukwu did not include Asaba in his Biafra map. Asaba was in Midwest region not Eastern Region.

[@echezonaazubike8054]

Bro that man is a big fool i was cringing watching him

[@Soartech_engineer]

Why must you people be forcing people to be part of you? the same thing Ojukwu did that make him fall and fail, he invaded the whole eastern region put them under his command ether they like it or not he moved and across the river niger he invaded the middle West and put them under his command ether they like it or not he moved coming to invade the west he was put to a holt at ore resisted by nigeria soldiers and repel, eventually recovered Nigeria back from Ojukwu, selfish and greedy people.

[@fra1134]

They killed them because they are biafrans

[@igwebuike4780]

The massacre was carried out by Gowon, Murtala Muhammed and Ibrahim Taiwo. The massacre revenge against Nzeogwu coup, and not about Biafra.

[@idowum]

It is so sad that Nigerians had to fight stupid war to keep it from fallen apart. What hurts me more as a Nigerian is that we have forgotten what led to the civil war so .

[@sammyyoung8051]

This man is a not wise at all ...who was the leader of coup plotters...is nzogwu from south east

[@ezecletus6465]

What has been happening all over this country since after all those atrocities engineered by innate hatred during the crisis of the 1960s has so far proven that there is karma and that God has in his own way been “rewarding “ the perpetrators of those atrocious acts in their own coin. The homes of the key actors in that period have been rendered waste by those on whose behalf they killed innocent civilians. May God forgive us all. May God help us to forgive and heal our collective wounds.

[@anthonymatthewijeawele3768]

That Kaduna Nzeogu where is he from sef? How can he be answering Kaduna and Nzeogu at the same time That name dey vex me

[@jerryjune977]

The plight of " I'm not Igbo (Biafra) It's a huge sorry mistake and shame Either wise up to avert future occurance. Don't live in denial, the enemy knows who you are

[@michaelabule]

One of my uncle was killed at that horrible event Asaba Massacre. Igbos don suffer too much for that country honestly.

[@anthonymatthewijeawele3768]

Asaba Massacre is enough reason for Delta to separate their selves from Nigeria if they are wise, they don't even feel sorry for what they did, swept it under the carpet as if nothing happened and they are still dinning with them We all seem to forget what lead to that war How Easterners were killed in numbers in the North

Mr lawyer can you listen to yourself

[@francescomartinez3803]

You see, it pains me when the people of Asaba said they are not Biafrans. Because of what. They even claim they are not Igbos well, the reason is best known to them. About the war, I always get bad each time I see or listen to all about that way. May the souls of those killed during that war rest in peace. But the people of Delta and Port'court should watch it.

[@prez6089]

The Delta Igbos are forcing themselves on Nigeria,may God help them. Asaba massacre is simply a revenge on Kaduna nzeogu,whom Nigeria believed to be an Igboman. Confused identity!!!

[@chuksonele3664]

A COUNTRY THAT GAVE JUNE 12 PREMIUM, DESERVING AS THAT IS, DOES NOT SEE THE ASABA MASSACRE OR THE BROADER BIAFRA (NIGERIA CIVIL WAR) WORTH REFLECTING UPON AS A "NATIONAL DAY".

[@madubaym]

They were massacred because they were Igbo, who were percieved to have a sympathetic sentiment towards the Biafran agitation.

[@supernewafrica4210]

Why did Asaba young men line up to great soldiers that had been committing atrocities against their Igbo brothers in the East. Even if they did not want to fight on the side of Biafra, did they have to line up to great soldiers knowing the risk of conscription. Now how far with Igbo Deltans?

[@leonardorjioffor6683]

Very true bro, I agree with wholeheartedly, it's nothing but fact

[@nduodiaka-ph9sl]

Muritala Mohammed and his men told the people that the war was over. He deceived them and when they gathered, they were all killed. And you may not know that Chukwuma Nzeogwu That headed the 1966 coup was from Opkamam next to Asaba. Some people from.aniocha areas of delta fought on the side of biafrans and some never returned.

[@okekechidi3377]

Please show our blood brothers from Asaba some respect. This is not funny neither is it a joke. There's No need to "point fingers", at this moment, rather, we should be in the mood of sober reflection. We really need a strong desire for unity as IGBOS. It is about that time.

[@therealist2866]

What are blabbering on about?! As if they lined up voluntarily. SMH 🤦‍♀️

[@nduodiaka-ph9sl]

@therealist2866 because he is ignorant of the facts.And Muritala Mohammed that led the massacre was himself assassinated in a coup by Colonel DIMKA .NEMESIS.

[@vinemaxwell1949]

Nduka Eze, you said Asaba people were not Biafrans but Nigerians, why did the same Nigerian military slaughtered them? Have you listened to the traditional leader in Delta state, Asaba to be precise? The bulk of the Nigerian military officers that took part in the January 1966 coup were from South South as called today that is christained "Igbo coup". Was that coup christained "Igbo coup indeed Igbo coup? Why cant you come out just like you are saying to the world that Asaba people are not Biafrans to say that the 1966 coup wasnt "Igbo coup? I found it disgusting to say that Asaba people are not Biafrans!!

[@gentlemanedotv]

Oyuku declaration of biafraud didn't include Asaba because Asaba wasn't part of South East. Try to learn from outside the box of propaganda .

[@vinemaxwell1949]
