LagosOrigin:
Thanks to IBB for starting it , we await the Gowon side of the story after which apology will be tendered to the Igbos for all the lies told against them.

Igbos are God own people it has been established time and time again.

The Igbos will forgive but we will never forget.

Same way we'll never forget how you murdered leaders of other ethnicities and leaving out yours.

exactly & succinctly put!

theophorus:
Na to Blame everyone except una self and na this hypocritical things still dey affect una.

If una like make una gaslight others till tomorrow, still the Truth will never change.

70-80% of Coup plotter = Ibos
Aguiyi Ironsi took over =Ibo
Unification decree = Ibos
Who made jest of North = Ibos
Whose Nationalist were not killed during the coup = Ibos.
Which Region took all the spoils of the Coup = Ibos.

On the Civil War.
Was there an Aburi accord?
Who looted the CBN buildings in the SE and Western Region?
Where/when did the defeat of the Biafra soldiers started? At Ore When they choose to march to take over Lagos.
Nsogbu-Nsogbu things without reasoning.

Una don start again.

Gowon was and still is a puppet. Man was used and dumped from all angles

Coldspice:
The greatest damage the war did to Igbos is the inferiority complex it instilled in them. They go about with a victim complex, begging for acceptance.

Inferiority complex? Which Igbo? We came out from the ashes of the war and outstripped other parts of the country in all indices within 20 years. Is that what you define as inferiority complex? Go look up the meaning of thay word before you embarass yourself further

Gowon did the right thing. He did nothing wrong. He is a true patriot. Go and dig up ojukwu and ask him to apologize for starting an unnecessary war that 2 million of you easterners were slaughtered like tse tse flies for nothing. No victor no vanquished. The show goes on

Gowon thought his Nigerian pray project will save him the people he ed with to persecute and punish the Igbos are the same people tormenting the Benue-Plateau and middle belt region now.

Putindbutt:

There's no burden on GOWON, he defended Nigeria from biafran rebels who killed leaders of other ethnic stocks. Even IBB later confirmed in his book that the 1966 coup had an ethnic colouration. It seems you guys have not read the entire book.

It's like this IMBE no get job at all, flooding everywhere with useless comments

Wahabfuture:










How are you sure about that? can your useless and coward tribe fight? get back Ilorin and I will start taking your coward tribe seriously, you are a big Fuuul

Of course, yorubas are cowards but they still managed to create an empire. Please, show me anywhere in this whole world, where a group of cowards fashioned an empire, as big as Oyo empire.

Yorubas can't fight however the whole Biafran Liberation army's offensive into yorubaland was soundly scuppered at Ore by only 179 hurriedly assembled yoruba soldiers.

[/color]can you in simple tell us, why Michael okpara, Dennis Osadebey were spared and how miraculously Nnamdi Azikiwe outsmarted the intelligence of the couriers?[color=#770077]

dynicks:
Honestly,Gowon really must be heavy at heart right now.... I'm sure he'd be regretting while he never released a book before IBB that's if ever he had the intentions to...Now it's now as if he's got alot hiding inside and under pressure as all eyes are on him...

No one should should force or pressure Gowon into releasing a book as it's simply his choice if he wishes to or not...But one thing is certain...I'm sure IBB today, feels much more free in conscience than he had always been all these years than Gowon.........IN ALL, IT'S BEST YOU EASE OR LAY DOWN WHATEVER BURDEN UV GOT AT HEART AND BE AT PEACE WITH YOURSELF AND YOUR CREATOR!!...

[/color]on the contrary it's Ur ethnic that is coveting Yoruba land, starting from the days of Nnamdi, when he was jostling to become premier of western region,he held that bitterness with Awolowo, when he Awolowo told him to go and contest in the Eastern region.Also Ojukwu started advancing towards Lagos to capture it. Lastly an average Easterner will say Lagos is no man's land, while Yoruba man will never say Onitsha is no man's land. A Yoruba man will always feel resentment to your folks for killing the prime minister Akintolavand gloating About it [color=#770077]

AustineE1:

You speak with so much anger and frustration,the economy is biting hard but guess what,the president is your brother,that should ameliorate your hunger!You dont have to be suicidal and a threat to your immediate society.
The question is,why are Yorubas more bothered and restless since the release of IBBs autobiography?why have they littered the internet space with insults on IBB?why do they want the status quo to remain?why are they changing the narratives?what do they stand to gain in tagging the coup,an igbo coup?why are they so pleased with ethnic profiling of igbos?why are they so scared of igbos?why do they wish that the igbos are constantly marginalised?what are they actually competing with the igbos?why do they want igbos to be part of Nigeria at all cost and on an unequal ground?why are they showing inferiority complex when place at par with igbos?why have Tinubu government continued with the institutionalized marginalisation of south east?why are his paid agents wired against igbos?why do they act as though they are in the opposition whereas they are in government?why is Lagos state implementing anti igbo agenda?
They good news is that igbos are culturally more wired to withstand any condition,infact they do better in difficulties.When you squeeze igbos,they dont fold,they rather focus.
'Our antagonists are our helpers'! God is our strength!!!!!

[/color] Ojukwu deceived him with the word "concur". Literarily I will say concur was also a remote cause of the war[color=#770077]

Dalohad:


What do you have to say about the Aburi accord?

Let Gowon write and dedicate his Chapter one to the Aburi accord.
