The sins committed by Gen Gowon keep him alive to date to witness with heartbreak the bad and nepotistic foundation of wickedness he laid in Nigeria and distrust of calamity he brought to Nigeria as he dishonored the agreement of the Aburi accord. That's unfair. It will continue to be hurting him until his death.
Ojukwu and Gowon went to aburi Ghana for restructuring negotiation, which Go won came home and refused to implement and that was the war against the Biafra.
Now tell me who in all sincerity will blame the Biafran people for seeking for a separate country where their lives and properties will be safe and secured.
Ask me o,they are still doing it till date,any small thing,eg in lag ,they will face Igbos and destroy their things. Haba,they should give us what we want .
Even till date the problem hasn't been fixed, all of us from the east and south knows that behind that Smile they give us, there is an atom of distrust and fear..every OMOIbo or Nyamiri is an economical threat to a yoruba or Hausa/Fulani man. Nigerian should have Operated as a Confederation, that was the Aburi Accord solution..we dont have anything in common.
I think the igbos are the chosen ones. They’ve faced so much and still standing strong. They will soon reign and become the economic power of Africa. Coming from a Yoruba man 🤷🏾♂️
@@aidan2849 Well, my friend go and read again the cause of the civil war. It has nothing to do with religion but everything to do with ethnicity and nepotism.

ANOTHER VIDEO ON FRIDAY At exactly 7:00 pm (Nigerian Time) on Friday, we shall publish our second video in the Nigeria - Biafra War series. We are publishing the full text of OJUKWU’s SPEECH where he declared Biafra as an independent state, seceding from Nigeria. It was a historic moment and for one month, the new country was very peaceful. After the one month, Nigeria fired the first bullets of the war from Gakem in Ogoja area of present day Cross River State. Biafra responded and the result was a conflagration that lasted for 3 years. You don’t want to miss the next video (WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN LOADED AND SCHEDULED FOR FRIDAY by 7 pm. Keep a date with us!! Subscribe & Share
I had missed your educational program. Am from East Africa but now in East Coast USA but Nigerians are my housemates and friends, so you can say am really interested in knowing lots of stuff about these intelligent and industrious folks. I know it's either Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa but if attacked they are Nigerians in solidarity. Asante Sana Mkubwa.
This narrative ignores the political issues in Western Nigeria that prompted the January 1966 coupe. It leaves the average listener with the impression that January 1966 coupists were careless adventurers with ulterior motives. It is not fair enough.😮
One of the best and the most accurate narrative without distortions... Well researched and without bias! I've read over 50 autobiographies on the history of Nigeria's war. There are so many lies online spewed by haters of unity. This video is just one of the very accurate videos. Well done.
missing lots of information. there were already killings in North before 1966 coup. also western region was already in turmoil. Akintola and Awolowo were fighting. this is the reason the young soldiers intervened. Politicians were messing up the country just like they are doing now. but only the brave igbo soldiers wanted to restore sanity in the country. they killed those they felt were in power, which are mostly northerners. also before the aburi accord, ojukwu rejected the fact that gowon be made the head of state, instead recommending a yoruba man who was the most senior in the army then, but instead he was pressured not to take over power.
It's quite an interesting, educative and informative historic epistle. I enjoyed every section of the story. Thank you for this lofty edition. More grace
You actually tried, but I noticed that you are trying to be diplomatic in this matter. For example, the Aburi agreement was turned down by Gowon when they arrived Nigeria. Please, I will like you to revisit this part of the true story. Thanks
May God blessed Nigeria from such evils. As a francophone, le grand Nigeria est une chance pour l’Afrique de l’Ouest et l’Afrique en général. God bless strong and United Nigeria always.
Chika: That simply means that the parties disagreed on what was discussed in Aburi. It will really help if everyone looks at the Biafra-Nigeria War Story without without ethnic binoculars. Once we read with ethnic binoculars, even the best effort at balancing the narrative will not be seen.
Firstly you made mentioned that your explanations were based on some propounded theories that you excerpted from some best selling articles thus explained why you failed to mention anything from the well articulated analogy of Late Dr. Chinua Anichebe In one of his books on Nigeria / Biafra war "There was a Country" who happened to serve as a chief adviser to the then eastern government under Ojukwu during the war. Secondary you failed to disclose the contents contained in the Aburi Accord of which you stated clearly that Col. Ojukwu remained loyal to but was violated and frowned upon by the then Nigeria government under gowon and that was the main cause for the declaration of the state of Biafra. NOTE: Now what exactly is the Aburi Accord all abound in totality? " SECTIONAL GOVERNMENT in other word, RESTRUCTURING NIGERIA" of which gowon and his government agreed to whilst in Ghana only to return to Nigeria and decided to boycott and discarded that agreement and that was what led to the declaration of the State of Biafra. Because Ojukwu saw that Gowon and his Nigeria government were never ready to make peace. So please set your line straight. Afterall Nobody ask you to delve into matters such as this, but since you have decided to, also understand that not everyone is here to salute your nonsense. No offense
You shouldn't call his work nonsense man, he at least did his best to couple all of that together, and again he said in the CS that on Friday he's going to continue the second part and which majorly focus on Ojukwu and the declaration of Biafra, why don't you take a chill pill and wait until Friday to see the second part of the documentary before you jump into conclusions or tryna act like you know more than he does. There's nothing holding you from doing your own video with your own facts, instead of calling another man's work NONSENSE, HAVE SENSE
He has stated his main objectives. So expect nothing more on Friday. I am a student of history and I understand flukes when is see one no matter how copy they appear. He has giving you what he wants you to know about the war as his own point of inflections only figure heads wait for friday
Well, this man tried his best but if you know more than him, you are free to create an extensive history of what happen, we will be very glad to watch and listen to you.
No matter the millions of life that was lost and properties destroyed Did you know that Igbos did not regret, are not regretting and can never regret going for that war All hair Biafra
@@supo5010 it started on dogan barracks where the army where killing eastern soldiers and their families on the order of Murtala which Gowon can’t stop him for days and then it spilled to the streets where Yoruba people started “Wetia” pouring acid on innocent easterners mostly Igbos killing them and they also killed on carter bridge Lagos.
This documentary is really educative. You really did well by giving out this information. Not so many of us know what led to the war. Also, i just want to add this to those who are just out to find critics or judge the works of others reason being that they know alot, they should know that the social media space is very accommodative, so you can also put up a content on whatever information you think you know so much about. And even if there are errors or discrepancies there are perfect ways to also communicate them than posing as a threat or something... we should know that regardless of any information or data or knowledge we have or claim to know, there would always be something you do not know, you can't know everything. So, i really i'm so impressed and in love with this content regardless.🥰🥰🥰🥰
What was the explanation give to the Death of Prominent Northerners and Westerners killed in the first coup. The coup perpetrator were only detained in different prison without any prosecution/trial by Aguiyi Ironsi led Government. If, they have been tried/prosecuted by the Aguiyi Ironsi led Government there wouldn't have been a reprisal coup which Consumed Aguiyi Ironsi himself. Lesson is do not delay any necessary things
Gowon wanted to kill and wipe out the Igbo race. Anywhere gowon is today he will be regretting why he returned and disagreed on Confederation that was agreed in Aburi.
Britain was the mastermind of the war and why nigeria fired the first shot, because freedom of biafra means end to sucking nigeria dry because nigeria will be no more and all evil agreement we signed with them at independence will become invalid. britain drew the war strategy, gave and bought the arms from the then soviet union and used propaganda to whitewash Nigeria Soviet union gave Nigeria soviet pilots and jets that did the bombing, the blockade of the eastern ocean to restrict import and export for biafra was done by British navy because Nigeria by then didn't even have war ships to issue a blockade America funded Nigeria heavily Egypt supplied pilots and mercenaries Saudi Arabia funded the war because of sunni Islam north Nigeria provided foot soldiers to fight against biafra. That war was Nigeria fighting for the interest of white man = oil. It was the first war world powers fought on one side to defeat the biafrans, because they knew if biafra was to win, in all Africa all their artificial countries they have created their tribes will go back to how they were before Colonization and form their own countries example is yorubas would have also left, thereby making them loose their economic influence in Africa so they fought vehemently and killed over 4 million non combatant eastern civilians with the help of dumb Nigerians that hate freedom France provided food aid to biafrans and isreal helped a little with funds too, but igbos manufactured most of their weapons, petrol and fought these world powers for 3 good years. If Gowon put selfishness aside and did what ojukwu demanded which is restructure Nigeria as a confederation and rename the country so that all evil deals nigeria had signed with british would be irrelevant because the name is different and a new country, that will eliminate all British interest in Nigeria but rather he chose to give western powers 41% of all oil and gas and resources discovered in Nigeria for free it is the reason why till date all oil companies in nigeria remit only 59% of oil barrels they drill and sale to nigeria, natural gas they remit only 47% and the rest is taken for free all this was to help him defeat biafra, and till date Nigerians are still not free, western powers are still sucking up and propping up the worst of politicians like Gowon to rule us Like Obama gave us buhari by giving buhari his own campaign team and management that helped him become president in America to come to nigeria and lead campaign for buhari in 2015 because Goodluck refused to renew that evil contract gowon signed for them. Nigeria won the battle but lost the war. Biafra will still come and other Nigerians will also finally be free like ojukwu had asked them to do in aburi and he refused because he felt restructuring will reduce his power over other regions to the interest of the british.
Mention one single Hausa man that was in that coup. I think you are the one that is attempting to distort history. Not a single Hausa man was in the coup. Not even one. Watch a video to the very end so as to hear the balancing statements before you criticize.
Coup is never plotted by a battalion, else it will leak before execution. Major Ademoyega was the last surviving member of the inner circle of the plot (he died in 2003 or so). He has written a book on the coup "Why We Struck". I have read the book. I don't think you have read it yet. His eye witness account does not tally with your comment here. Obasanjo, Philip Effiong, Gbulie have all written about that coup and I have all their books. None of them has made mention of what you have narrated here. This video is not about ethnicity. It's about history. It's a narration of events of the past. It is also important if you watch to the end to get the full narration rather than pick just a line. Cheers broh
There are lots of middle belts soldiers involved I’ll say you’re biased for not calling out names of those coup plotters with their pictures that killed Ironsi, you’re protecting there names just like you didn’t mention that Ironsi deputy a Yoruba man would have taken over power but instead the northern coup plotters that christened it counter coup installed a their Christian puppet from the mid belt and Ojukwu never accepted it
The cue wasn't Igbo cue because both Hausa, Yoruba army officers are involved in the act. It's was because Igbo man was made the head of the state they called it Igbo cue. Hausa people really hated Igbos from their nature that's why they used it as excuse to killed Igbo people. Since after that cue many cue has taken place in Nigeria which also claims the heads of some leaders, why not Nigeria government and Hausa takes the agrration to the masses or to the heads of the cue? Secondly the agreement set by the peace making committee between Ojukwu and Gowon in Ghana was bridge by Gown. Thirdly from the history it was the army officers that where sent to Igbo land fall their duty for not able to kill those they where asked to killed because of their cowardice and they are Yorubas soldiers, while Northern soldiers went to Yoruba and Igbo soldiers went to the North.
And where's that Nigeria today.. poverty. insecurity, corruption? You all have the presidency all these years, no single progress and yet still crying about the Igbo people.. isn't that sheer madness? And talking about Gowon, what's going on in his region today? Are the Fulanis not killing his people and taking over their lands? What about the Yorubas? Are their people, Obas not being killed and school children kidnapped by the Fulanis? They took over Ilorin and are in their forests in Ogun, Ondo, Ekiti, etc, trying to take more lands? Igbo never took anybody's land, or attack other people for any reason. You see your problem is not the Igbos. You are only envious, hateful and jealous. The Igbo fought gallantly, suffered genocide, lost eveything, each man who had millions or less in banks was only given 20 pounds. But today, they have bounced back thrice higher and now the richest tribe in Nigeria...I totally understand the envy and hate, you can't stop these people. Your ancestors already tried and failed.
@@NTNews.64 if the war was fulani vs igbos with no outside help. The fulani/hausas would have been whipped out go check the military losses and see who lost more soldiers 😂
It’s time you guys should be sued for telling biased stories. Where is your source that Ojukwu refused what was discussed in Aburi? They discussed restructuring in Aburi but Gowon flaunted it leading to secession and you’re saying told half truth of the Aburi accord and all efforts made to please him are not no avail saying he was the one that really wanted the war so bad. You’re Evil 👿
These people are despicable. They thrive in distortion and gaslighting. That's the primary purpose Hausa/Fulani employed Yorubas to do. Lie, gaslight and heavy propaganda against the Igbos since 1967.
Where is the lie, broh. I have narrated what Gowon said of Ojukwu and what Ojukwu said of Gowon after they returned from Aburi. How else do you want a documentary to be objective? Na wa for my country men ooh!!!
After the first shot was fired by the Nigerian side, Ojukwu did not surrender. He fought the war. He considered it a necessary action to secure his declaration 📜 of Biafra as a sovereign State. If he did not see it as a necessary action, perhaps he would not have deployed men and resources to the battle field.
100% my friend I like this guy's articles ,even a deaf person can hear this he took his time no rush with everything in detail.. I wish I could meet him in future the way he narrates made me sharp in mind each time I watch them. Mr E please share your cellphone number

Soviet union gave Nigeria soviet pilots and jets that did the bombing,
the blockade of the eastern ocean to restrict import and export for biafra was done by British navy because Nigeria by then didn't even have war ships to issue a blockade
America funded Nigeria heavily
Egypt supplied pilots and mercenaries
Saudi Arabia funded the war because of sunni Islam north
Nigeria provided foot soldiers to fight against biafra.
That war was Nigeria fighting for the interest of white man = oil.
It was the first war world powers fought on one side to defeat the biafrans, because they knew if biafra was to win, in all Africa all their artificial countries they have created their tribes will go back to how they were before Colonization and form their own countries example is yorubas would have also left, thereby making them loose their economic influence in Africa so they fought vehemently and killed over 4 million non combatant eastern civilians with the help of dumb Nigerians that hate freedom

@@backinhistory9 Am not being biased or enthnocentric, u put up an admirable work or thesis
There are lots of middle belts soldiers involved I’ll say you’re biased for not calling out names of those coup plotters with their pictures that killed Ironsi, you’re protecting there names just like you didn’t mention that Ironsi deputy a Yoruba man would have taken over power but instead the northern coup plotters that christened it counter coup installed a their Christian puppet from the mid belt and Ojukwu never accepted it
The cue wasn't Igbo cue because both Hausa, Yoruba army officers are involved in the act. It's was because Igbo man was made the head of the state they called it Igbo cue. Hausa people really hated Igbos from their nature that's why they used it as excuse to killed Igbo people. Since after that cue many cue has taken place in Nigeria which also claims the heads of some leaders, why not Nigeria government and Hausa takes the agrration to the masses or to the heads of the cue? Secondly the agreement set by the peace making committee between Ojukwu and Gowon in Ghana was bridge by Gown. Thirdly from the history it was the army officers that where sent to Igbo land fall their duty for not able to kill those they where asked to killed because of their cowardice and they are Yorubas soldiers, while Northern soldiers went to Yoruba and Igbo soldiers went to the North.
You didn't hear that France was an the west were involved?
Keep watching sir. It's a series and in it, there is a video on DIPLOMATIC INVOLVEMENT. We have 8 videos in the series.
@@backinhistory9 You're doing a great job sir
Evil ojukwu
Where ur personal interest carry u reach 😂😂 evil human
If I were to be gowon, I won’t spare no Igbo 😊
And where's that Nigeria today.. poverty. insecurity, corruption? You all have the presidency all these years, no single progress and yet still crying about the Igbo people.. isn't that sheer madness? And talking about Gowon, what's going on in his region today? Are the Fulanis not killing his people and taking over their lands? What about the Yorubas? Are their people, Obas not being killed and school children kidnapped by the Fulanis? They took over Ilorin and are in their forests in Ogun, Ondo, Ekiti, etc, trying to take more lands? Igbo never took anybody's land, or attack other people for any reason. You see your problem is not the Igbos. You are only envious, hateful and jealous. The Igbo fought gallantly, suffered genocide, lost eveything, each man who had millions or less in banks was only given 20 pounds. But today, they have bounced back thrice higher and now the richest tribe in Nigeria...I totally understand the envy and hate, you can't stop these people. Your ancestors already tried and failed.
See this mumu without the Americans and brits you ppl would have had no chance talk less of sparing no Igbo ewu
@@joechucks1555 lol 😂 wait, why u go think say Igbo go win fulani? Na die una see so Igbo nr go rule
@@NTNews.64 if the war was fulani vs igbos with no outside help. The fulani/hausas would have been whipped out go check the military losses and see who lost more soldiers 😂
@@NTNews.64it's because of biased ewu like you . This country is still where it's been. Educated illiterate.
My concern goes to British!
And their evil Amalgamation.

Like which one in particular? If you show me the mixed facts, I will explain further. Let's hear from you.
GOWON WAS WRONG
And they middle belt especially Plateau state, his state. Is feeling the heat of it.
He wasn't the only one that was wrong.

It’s time you guys should be sued for telling biased stories. Where is your source that Ojukwu refused what was discussed in Aburi? They discussed restructuring in Aburi but Gowon flaunted it leading to secession and you’re saying told half truth of the Aburi accord and all efforts made to please him are not no avail saying he was the one that really wanted the war so bad. You’re Evil 👿
These people are despicable. They thrive in distortion and gaslighting. That's the primary purpose Hausa/Fulani employed Yorubas to do. Lie, gaslight and heavy propaganda against the Igbos since 1967.
Where is the lie, broh. I have narrated what Gowon said of Ojukwu and what Ojukwu said of Gowon after they returned from Aburi. How else do you want a documentary to be objective?
Na wa for my country men ooh!!!
@@backinhistory9 You weren’t narrating it as a reported speech, you were affirming it as if it was the fact, pillorying Ojukwu.
How did Ojukwu see the war as necessary....
A man who war was brought to his peaceful home for just exercising fundamental human rights
After the first shot was fired by the Nigerian side, Ojukwu did not surrender. He fought the war. He considered it a necessary action to secure his declaration 📜 of Biafra as a sovereign State. If he did not see it as a necessary action, perhaps he would not have deployed men and resources to the battle field.
100% my friend I like this guy's articles ,even a deaf person can hear this he took his time no rush with everything in detail..
I wish I could meet him in future the way he narrates made me sharp in mind each time I watch them.
