It's too early to be stupid

Ojukwu put up a good fight against a whole country with few of his men and retreat to safety .
That's a true soldier unlike General Oladipo Diya who shamelessly and foolishly kneelt before Abacha to beg for his useless life .

Just say the pilot that helped ojukwu to cowardly flee after deceiving his tribesmen and women to embark on a futile mission thereby bringing death and untold hardship upon themselves.
Nobody is under hardship here, come to the east

Why doubt him? There are over 5 million members on nairaland, who hail from various notable families. Here, there are senators, reps members, foreigners, successful businessmen and women who hide under various monikers. Are you aware embassies are here too? US embassy has a thread or forum here where they address various Visa issues . That's why its important people watch what they say here.

Yes he retreated for his own personal safety and left his ill-equipped soldiers at the mercy of the Federal forces. This is cowardice.

What's the meaning of Osakwe in Igbo?
I only know of people who come from around Asaba area bearing the name.

You meant when the Chief Coward japa wearing skirt and blouse? And to think that this same coward ordered the execution of Banjo and Co made everything ironic. grin grin cheesy

One yoruba adage said a brave man takes bullet from the front only a coward takes bullet from the back. Figure it out yourself , be objective.

Nah.

A man who the people called upon at a time they were being murdered in thousands across nigeria and he answered.

Something that no yoruba man dead or alive have the nerves to attempt
He wasted over 3 million souls and fled for his own. No Yoruba man will ever journey on such a wasteful path. Do you know about Adekunle Fajuyi? That's a true hero.

And how many lifes was saved by Diya for him bear his own cross? How many lifes was lost due to Ojukwu's bravery?

Same thing Kanu is doing cos so far, he has lost more than 1,000 people since the emergence of Ipob while thousands are languishing in prisons.

The question is, do you guys learnt anything from your past mistakes? Who is more foolish wasting the lifes of the same people they are fighting for?

Nope!!! The man who stood and fought for the right things and upheld the military doctrine of chain of command. Unlike his comrades who ran into warships and scampered to Port Novo only to snick back and took orders from their subordinates. What a shame.

Those people have no shame.

Capt Osakwe was so trusted by Gen Ojujwu that he entrusted his life to him. At the last hours of Biafra, Ojukwu had to make that historical departure from Biafra.

Ojukwu's failure to exit would have been a fatal error of sure death to him. Many other Biafran pilots were ready to do that last flight for the General. But Ojukwu trusted none but Capt Osakwe to ferry him to safety.

A wrong saboteur would have just diverted the plane elsewhere, and the rest is history. Ojukwu trusted Capt Osakwe who delivered him to safety.

Osakwe was from Umuikem village in Onitsha. Any side talk that Onitsha people were not supportive of Biafra is unsubstantiated. Even the chief justice of Biafra, Justice Louis Mbanefo was from Onitsha too. Mbanefo drafted Biafran surrender instrument, and he led Biafra delegates to surrender to Gen Gowon in 1970, Jan 15th.

..History lesson!!

Your people can never ever fight Nigeria for their rights so shut your trap! All these weaklings making noise online.
Isn't it too early to wail? My people won't start what they can't finish. It is an act of cowardice to start and bail and it is no surprise that the so-called folks who fight for their rights are notorious for starting and running half way. Don't you think?

Ojukwu was a Man of Vision. A true compatriot, He took the establishment on, He never surrendered. He just allowed Peace to reign for the benefit of the Ibos and for posterity

We Have another Ojukwu who is now in DSS custody with another strategy, He is not willing to lead Nigeria to war, He wanted to wake up the conscience of the Nigerian People that we are still under the oppression
But unfortunately, The Nigerian people are in a deep slumber even until Now

Knowing that Igbos are mostly emotional, you had to bring this up just to divert attention from the Fowler debacle to distract them.
