“Ojukwu begged igbos n0t to g0 to waar…University of Nsukka insisted” - UwaEzuoke

[@user-qi4mb2gj2z]

I don't really speak Igbo. ..but I'm constantly learning day by day ...I love the fact that the whole story was narrated in Igbo language ❤❤❤

[@Kiki-en9vm]

For year , Nigeria claimed the igbos started war , but the truth is Gowan started the war.

[@gentlemanedotv]

How, What was banjo and Biafra army doing in Midwest region of Nigeria?

[@CHEATERSANDSIMPS]

​@@gentlemanedotv Banjo is of Yoruba descent, and the historical perception of Biafra as excessively tribal has been manipulated by the victorious side, leading to a distortion of history that promotes tribalism and marginalization. It's worth noting that Banjo even attempted to stage a coup against President Odumegwu Ojukwu of Biafra, providing significant insight into the complexities of that period.

[@Obalufon]

@@CHEATERSANDSIMPS The only advancement made by Biafra, was by Banjo. So, stop the nonsense about planning coup. Ojukwu was jealous of Banjo, Nzeogwu, Ifeajuna and co. Period! Banjo couldn’t take the war deep into his own people, so he stopped to negotiate. Militarily, Banjo and his Biafra troops don’t have the firepower of Federal soldiers anyway

[@gentlemanedotv]

@@CHEATERSANDSIMPSfor him to stage a coup it means he was a Biafra army, so what were Biafra army doing at Midwest region? Just tell us.

It's a simplified account but true nonetheless.

[@onyenkwereokwandu7017]

This interviewer must bring someone else who was in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka to retute this man's version of the Nollywood version. I was in Class One in 1967 when the war started. I can recollect the chants starting in our schools to join the war, after Aburi accord failed, & Gowon declared the war. People chanted to carry guns in order to stop the Nigerian Army from invading our country. The Biafran War is like the elephant presented to blind people for their description of what they felt that the elephant was like.

[@followGreatness]

I think he is telling the truth. My dad a YORUBA GUY was studying medicine in Nsukka at the time. ONe night my dad's landlord who was a professor woke him up to climb on the roof and escape. My father kept hearing as he ran the man shouting no one is here .no one is here except for me and my wife and kids. My dad escaped ooo with a big scar. I think he feel cos he has a big scar . Anyways after the war He went back. The man's house was raised down...fire ashes etc. You can the tears and haunting look in my father's eyes. I feel.so sad and sorry for him that he experienced such a thing... But he lived in the university for all.I know. Im.educated and know universities should normally be peaceful and schools or places of learning left undisturbed but look what happened. I believe this guy ooo.

He wasn't lying , most of the igbo civi war is researched ,even in Harvard,the story of this man is true,though there are more,but is clear that the ig os who are blamed for starting the war didn't start that war , Gowan and his cronnies did,with the north and then joined by the yorubas.

[@jeovanikelechi9345]

He said the war had started in the north already where Igbos where been killed so the Igbos in nsuka had to start fighting back

Oga, it is on record that the SE leaders earmarked to be eliminated during the January 66 coup were not killed by Ifeajuna who was sent to perform the task.

[@chidiogbonnia1408]

You are perfectly correct my dear. He never saw the war as he said, he is just making up stories. He said. He said that Ojukwu was carrying gun both hands. This man is a lier.

Banjo was assigned to kill Michael Okpara but he failed. Ifeajuna was assigned to kill Aguiyi Ironsi but because Aguiyi Ironsi was a top military head therefore Ifeajuna failed. Zik was in London during that time. So how will you blame the failure of Banjo and Ifeajuna to Igbos?

If I'm not wrong, he said the coup plotters agreed that the north should kill their leaders so also the west, while east hid their own, and that's why they concluded that an Igbo man will never become the president of Nigeria.....this is definitely untrue. History clearly states thate Ifeajuna killed the prime minister, Tafawa Balewa, and the western premier, Akintola. Nzeogwu killed the saudana of sokoto. While they spared Nnamdi Azikwe and Opara....
