Dr. Ekeke — Thu, 10 May 2012 17:52:39 -0000

I cannot believe that Gowon waited for Ojuwku to die and suddenly began to lie against the dead. This is insane and ludicrous. Gowon was the one who reneged on ABURI accord and now he blames Ojukwu for it. He now portrays Ojukwu as the one who caused the war to occur. Why didn’t Gowon say NO to WAR and adhere to ABURI accord? Why did Gowon handover power to Ojukwu, who as a senior military officer to him then? Why didn’t Gowon implement the end of war slogan “No Victor No Vanquished” during the nine years he was military head of state? I do not have respect for Gowon and his likes anymore. Sorry, Gowon is just a liar, a hypocrite and a coward.

Let me start by congratulating Admas Oshiomole once again for his good works, thoughfulness, and examplary leadership as the amiable governor of Edo state. And quickly to state too that Adams will win the next election.

The PDP was given the opportunity but they loss direction. For eight years there is nothing on gound to show that there was a governor in that state and when they poeple has started getting the dividend of democracy they have resorted to cheap blackmail, assassination of character etc. The question is what do the PDP actually wants, is it to surpress the people at all times with their larger than life self style and corrupt leadership.

On merit, I doubt if any of the current PDP stalwart could challenge Adams to an election and win.

Adams please kindly ignor them because nemessis will surely catch up with them.

Olukoya, If you are being honest to yourself or your
Oduduwa group, you should keep your so-called 'intellectual' discussion! Please
spare us that NONSENSE!
Was it not the same 'Intellectual' discussion that Our leader Ikemba sincerely
thought will put some sense into the brick hearts of the Islamic terrorists
supported strongly by Oduduwa leaders?
Now the Biafrans in the spirit of peace safely sent indigenes of other parts
with their weapons back to their respective regions... What did the Biafras get
back in return... some body parts of their people (Those lucky to be
recovered), none of the soldiers was allowed to go back to East with their
weapons like their counterparts.
Now that is what you call intelligent right?
You may speak for yourself, if you are different(Which I will doubt), but even
among the ordinary individuals that Oduduwa blood of back stabbing and undue
hatred or anyone or anything Igbos/Biafras, still flow fresh.
But, it is important to note that the war is not yet over for those Oduduwa
folks who took pleasure in mocking the agonies of Biafrans. While Biafrans can
take on all the World super imperialists with their evil weapons, and still
survive against all odds, will the Oduduwa group, handle only the
Islamic/Arabs occupying the North?

Sarkozy
must now be arrested and sent to The Hague for prosecution, he is not only a

His role in plotting coup d’état in Ivory Coast and illegal dumping of
unaccounted cache of weapons of mass destruction to Al-Qaeda, who are now in
control of Libya spreading wild their terrorism not only in Africa but around
the world. He was also part in the drowning of hundreds of refugees that were
trying to escape his/NATO/ terrorist bombing and killings in Libya.
If the new French government fail to arrest him, the repercussion on
France may be devastating in the future, when the same thing Sarkozy did in
those countries will come back to haunt them...
Sarkozy may attempt to quickly deny the fact that is not hidden about his role
looting Libya even accepting €50 from Gadhafi, it may not take a rocket
scientist to agree that Sarkozy's illegal supply of weapons of mass destruction
(Bought with part of that money Gadhafi gave him) to make sure that Gadhafi was
eliminated so as to cover his evil track!
If after the Sarkozy/NATO /UN open support of Al-Qaeda takeover of Libya they
still have the audacity to accuse anyone (Like Manny) of supporting the 'enemy' (The same Al-Qeda)
then they need their heads examined, because they are all Al-Qaeda and Al-Qaeda
are them.. They should stop fooling themselves, and stop their evil destruction!

The politics and economics of oil revenue is the
reason why Nigeria still exists as one. Without oil wealth, Nigeria would’ve
been disintegrated long time ago. Niger Delta and Ndoki communities are in
shambles and hazardous living conditions, while nonentities and illiterates are
profiteering stupendously from their oil wealth. Shame on us for allowing these
horrible sin, injustice, and lawlessness!
This kind of report does not only irritate the soul but compel one to
question the basis for continued co-existence. We are fools! OBJ is right! How
can these rogue generals and corrupt politicians steal from Nigeria and
Nigerians like that? How can a handful of Nigerians amass such stupendous
wealth from the nation’s oil resources – basically distribute and share the
nation’s oil wealth among them, their families and friends while millions of
Nigerians struggle and scramble each day to survive. It does not make sense at
all. This report reveals the height of arrogance and lawlessness in Nigeria.
These rogue generals turned politicians have destroyed Nigeria and impoverished
Nigerians. And today, their protégée politicians are committing the same
lawlessness and fickle-minded followers keep quiet and allow this visionless,
slovenliness, irresponsible and incompetent politicians’ rampage and impoverish
us all. Today, illiterates, people with questionable
education are turned into instant millionaires just by owing one oil
block. Even those involved in illegal oil
bunkering business are stupendously wealthy.
This rampant corruption and lawlessness should call for revolution. No nation can continue in this sort lawlessness
and succeed.

Re: MASSOB 2011:Chronicles Of Brutality In Nigeria–Reports

According to Esutoyin Adepoju:

Are you people not reading your own history, with the benefit of the post war history into Ojukwu's motivations? Biafra was heroic in the determination of its struggle but what was the logic of that heroism?

As far as I understand it, the story sold to the Biafran masses, particularly Igbos, of the reason for the war was to protect them from massacre or dehumanisation at the hands of the Hsusa/Fulani and their allies. Most Igbos I read online still echo that line. How accurate is this claim about the rationale for entering and continuing in the war for years of horror for Biafrans, with little equipment and little food, leading to massive starvation of Biafrans, particularly Igbos?

After crossing the Niger having fled the Northern anti-Southern and anti-Igbo pogrom were they not safe in Igboland? Were Ojukuwu and his follow leaders responding to what is described as Gowon's insistence on his right to declare a state of emergency anywhere in Nigeria even though as agreed all troops had been withdrawn to their places of ethnic origin?
Joe Achuzia and Philip Efiong, two of the most prominent figures on the Bifran side, have been described as describing Biafra was founded to counter Gown's creation of states. Was this initiative justifiable in the light of the huge cost of Biafra to Igbos and Nigeria as a whole? It has been argued that Ojukwu, in the name of being pragmatic, would have done better to accept Gowon's modified acceptance of the Aburi Acccord rather than insisting on full acceptance.
All in all, was the Biafran leadership completely honest with its citizens about the rationale for entering into and continuing in that war?

The question is whether they reconciled or not. In either event, the court got to hear from them.

And that is not good go VC Aluko either. For marrying a wife who does not know what she wants.

But is filing and not following up on the filing good for Prof. VC Dr. Aluko? Not really. Because somebody may be unhappy to be waiting for ever with the handcuffs.

Ben Ikari — Fri, 04 May 2012 23:39:38 -0000

True that Igbos were massacred, just like they're always massacred in the North during every religious riot or killings. What really propelled the war, though was a false sense of Igbos' possible usurpation of Ogoni oil and the presentation of same as a bargaining power or chip. It's proper to state that war can't be fought without money. Meanwhile, before the war Igbos (under the Eastern region government they owned and controlled) were already enslaving Ogonis in Ogoni territory. Also, Ojukwu almost immediately asked $hell Oil to pay oil royalties to Biafra. He's asked to legitimize his republic or government and he couldn't. Why? because through Ken Saro-Wiwa's efforts, Bonny the oil depot, which was under Biafra's control due to its location in the then Eastern region of the Igbos fell to the federal government of Gowon.

Professor, you know better than to echo lies told by Nigerians that Biafrans were fighting for your Oil. Biafra/Nigeria Civil War was fought not because of Oil my dear activist Professor or whatever, stop telling lies to your mind. While Biafrans were fighting for Safety, Nigerians and British government were(are) fight for Oil. The war was fought purely because Igbos were being massacred all around Nigeria even in Ogoni land stop lying to your youths. An elder should not tell lies. You and Nigeria are still fighting for Oil, Igbos are fighting for security, safety a God giving right to human beings. DO NOT BLIND YOUR MIND INTO DWELLING IN FALLSHOOD.

Comment by Ben Ikari

It's unfortunate, intellectually and ethically unsound, unreasonable for a newspaper (Online), if at all or blogger, columnist, to make this kind of inaccurate statement that will be viewed by the public, though not unexpected. In short, a retraction is needed for the public sake and respect for the sanctity of the entity known as Ogoni. How could any reasonable person, especially not a foreigner, rather Nigerian, who believes he/she can write think or claim more than 70 percent of Ogonis are Igbos? This is the most stupid thing I have heard in the 21st century. And who ever did this called Ogoni population "So-called?" In short, republicreport owe Ogonis an unreserved apology. With due respect to sound minded Igbos, it's a truism that Igbos killed Ogonis (more than 30, 000) during the civil war and have given no apologies to date. Yet, most Igbos keeps making unguided and untrue statement such as this. Note that Igbos were mercilessly killed by Ojukwu-Biafra and Nigerian army too, like those from other tribes, which all makes the 3 million people estimated to have died during the civil war. By the way, what is this blogger or so that sound like an Igbo-owned empire doing in New York? Only an outfit owned by an Igbo (Igbos) can make such silly, inaccurate and offensive statement toward Ogoni. For the records, Ogonis are not Igbo! We are Ogoni and Ogoni has a distinct territory, language, culture, etc. that are different from the Igbo's and all the other Nigerian tribes or ethnic nationalities. It's preposterous for anyone to think Ogonis would consult the Igbos or any other group in Nigeria if it were to leave the illegal country-Nigeria. Ojukwu and his Igbo/Biafra warlords only greedily went to war (1967-1970) for the most part because of the Ogoni oil. They thought because Ogonis were of a smaller ethnic nation and happened to be in the then Eastern region by geographical location (not by treaty), conscripting Ogoni will be in their best interest. They failed and lost the civil war to Nigeria because of their greed and disrespect for Ogoni and other small groups in Niger delta they refused to consult yet thought they'd use our oil as a bargaining chip. Of course, Ogonis, Ken Saro-Wiwa especially, which the Ojukwus/most Igbos can never forgive helped federal Nigeria defeat Biafra badly. These are all facts. Therefore, no Igbo person or Nigerian should think Ogoni owe them anything. Ogoni's slightly pilfered/stolen sovereignty is Ogonis and must be protected and defended at all times. The Igbos, Hausa, Yorubas and others, including Niger deltans have the right to claim and defend theirs. Ogonis don't conscript or impose themselves on others. Therefore, anyone eying Ogoni, especially its sweet crude oil must take a deep breath and back-off. When the time comes, Ogoni will prove its uniqueness and stand by its sovereignty pilfered by the British colonialists. Enough!

While l agree that separation and independent sovereignty is the only viable solution to Nigeria's current problem, l still feel strongly that we should not repeat the same mistake twice or fail to learn from the mistakes of other countries that separated amidst a very bloody and on-going civil war!
Take Sudan for example, though separated, war has never ended as l write! Is that the future we want for Biafra and its neighbors?
I once again propose that we sit down at a round-table (SNC) and discuss the terms of our separation. Discuss issues of boundaries, ethnic minorities (l bet you will assume the Ibibios for example, want to be "inside Biafra" but you are patently mistaken!), resources, sharing of common infrastructures on ground, trade and payments, e.t.c
When we are done discussing these issues, separation will be fait accompli and would be done amicably.....as it should be. Dont let us try to run before we can attempt to crawl!

If l must add, western powers dont give a hoot whether we separate or not, as long as the source of energy (crude oil) is not disrupted and will ship arms to whichever party they think will best serve their interest after all, "arms supply is business as usual", especially in this current global recession!
Libya and the anarchy currently going on there is a most recent example!
