I Can’t Allow My Children Join Nigerian Army - 76-Year-Old War Veteran

[@sonofnok2153]

Chai! See Nigerian Veteran. The evidence of appreciation of his "service" is very clear. See how fresh he is. Well taken care of.

[@ivybannerman-wood453]

I love the way veterans wear their medals proudly on their left chest. We salute you, Sir.

Nigeria soldiers would hv collected woto woto if not d help of Russia, Britain nd som Europe allies. Ojukwu really fought lik a soldier. Nd igbos are really Japan of Africa.

[@DIALLO7]

​@@Rodney253 what is your tribe? Fact is that Igbos are far too better than other tribes in Nigeria in many vital aspects,we are talking about the richest tribe in Africa and about 6th in the world.keeep dying in jealousy and envy while Igbos keep progressing day by day upon the immense marginalization.

[@ayo-v1p]

The secessionist state of Biafra never stood a chance the moment the Nigerian military enforced a maritime blockade. The aim of the Nigerian Navy was to cut off the secessionist state of Biafra from aid, Imports and exports and to use hunger to force the igbos to surrender

[@princeharry1848]

[@tranquilityunogwu3665]

Hmmmmm this very set of people,hmmm God abeg bless me so I can support great people like this.

[@mamablessing662]

I agreed with this ex solider; saying he would not allow any of his children to join the Nigeria army. It was the Nigeria army that destroyed Nigeria by intruding into Nigeria politics even before the Nigeria military coup of 1966; when they succeeded in being military men and politicians, they remain in dictatorship and tyrannical system of governing Nigeria for 33 years, lotting and destroying everything we have in Nigeria, just for them to become military billionaire-thieves. As if that wasn’t enough, they went into their barracks to remove their military uniforms and came back as civilians to finish Nigeria utterly. God will rescue and restore Nigeria 🇳🇬 glory back.

[@charlesifeanyichukwu5146]

I think it is about time the National chairman of APC to be called to order on the bleached useless man. This is not what we the people of Edo State represent we are peace and loving people.

[@willyigwe5691]

I believe if anyone ask that papa to fight for one Nigeria now I guess he would ask questions if not rejecting totally

[@GGQ-f8t]

You can't compare welfare in 1967 to 2024 that is different but you are right they need to be compensated for their services.

[@nkechiokoro4226]

They can be training officers in their various field, free medical treatment scholarship to at least a member of their family and other incentives I think they deserve it.

[@oluwasegunadebuji2116]

The govt needs to reward these men greatly because they are great men. Glean from their experience on how to tackle the North's insurgence, financially motivate them and we will see the expected results. It just shows that those oga patapata at the top are just squandering all the allocations

[@tombucci3015]

@raphaeljerry7401 So you think before you type? I have seen how guys are well taken care of since I was born. As a barrack boy, son of a soldier and grandson of a soldier. There is a high level of corruption in the Army. Young and lower ranked officers been maltreated by senior officers. So nothing has changed bro. irrespective of all this I still respect our military.

Nobody can mess with Igbo people in Nigeria unless you have external support, even the Fulani knows that, if not the support from United Kingdom and other European countries, and food starvation, Biafra would have won that fight

[@komlaagudze6374]

I understand the pain, really, and war is sad on both sides. But Biafra had external support too. Have you read about this war? Who do you think France and Belgium were supporting? There were even Oyinbo Biafran soldiers

Facts!

[@chimerezeiwuji1379]

You want 5million recruit yet you don't want your children to be recruited. Recruit only from the north and the west as for Biafrans, no go area. and even if you recruit 10million you can't still win because international powers are not going to back you this time against biafra, war is not fought by number but by superior weapon, this elder think that it's 1967, go try isreal that has few population and see what happens to you under a day. Remember the more you recruit the more your enemies recruit as well, moreover the last recruitment you did how many did you get especially from the south south and southeast. They have known that you always select all the head of forces from the north and west including power, so how can you convince them

In a bid to promote "one Nigeria" Ojukwu is regarded a rebel till today among the federal side who fought the war. I recommend you read first account books like "My command by olusegun Obasanjo and another one by Forsyth accounting the civil war. It was a baseless war to begin with. Unfortunately it began with the coup and counter coup of 1966, however, it was fueled by greed.

@@ojilestephen4573 u seem not to get my point really I was pointing the fact that these ex soldier who is being owned bonuses that a certain rebel leader was paid all his entitlement and given a state burial enforcing the fact he was now seen as a hero to Nigeria people ....Nigeria was kept one so certian pple could enjoy its benefits So they promote one Nigeria

[@ojilestephen4573]

@@alexisthor3191 in that regard, I agree with you. It was in fact a war between Nigerian leaders at the time. The citizens had little or no contributions to it. In fact, there were sympathisers of the rebels within the Nigerian populace.
