      @ and who are the pathological liar if I might ask? The East have been telling their own stories about the war and no one claimed they were wrong but when others narrated their own stories suddenly they are lier or don’t have the right to do so
      Do you truly believe the northerners in the eastern states at that time were spared or not slaughtered by the easterners during the war especially hearing what the northerners did to their people in the north? Just be honest with yourself for a moment

    Listening to this woman, I can say she seems honest. I also heard some stories about how we retaliated the attacks and killed Northerns too. It’s just that we lost more casualties because we had more numbers easterners in the north than north had in the East. Note: it wasn’t only Ndi Igbo that was killed in the North, both ibibios, Ijaws and most eastern ethnicities. That’s why I laugh whenever I see this SS tribes fighting us today. The same treatment an Igbo man gets from northerners is the same treatment they will get.

    The guy who uploaded this video, if your intention is to bring all sides of the story of the atrocities that occurred during the Civil War, should make effort to block some rude and offensive people who don't have the calmness to hear other people's stories.
    Her story is personal and it doesn't matter what lies you have been fed. If you don't have the calmness to listen to other people's stories and empathize with them, then don't be angry when other people dismiss your stories.
    Some stupid kids come here to heap insults on a woman old enough to be their mum or grandmum. It doesn't matter what side of the story you have, other people also have their own stories of victimhood. Perhaps it's the reason Reno Omokri attacks some of these people and the lies they spread all the time by bringing up facts to counter their lies.
    Acknowledge other people's stories of victimhood if you want to have a better understanding of the tragedy and if your intention is to try to establish peace and harmonious existence.

      Hi Mukhtar, if you have looked through my channel, you will see that I'have posted tons of videos with different perspectives of the civil war from both the Biafran and Nigerian sides; and believe it or not I have actually deleted the more caustic comments from the channel.However, I cannot and will not be held responsible for any dissenting comments from any quarters, whether viewers choose to believe Haijay's accounts of events or not is not my job to determine or regulate. History has a way of rubbing people the wrong way; but a discerning mind will watch to understand, learn and make more informed choices as a Nigerian.

      This particular video is from a petition by Ohaneze Ndigbo and this woman here talks about the sufferings of Arewa people in Old Eastern Region during the tense pre-war days of 1967.

    1966 Ojukwu was in Kano commanding Kano brigade .so where did Ojukwu then announce for all Hausas to leave the SE...the 1966 coup did not start the Biafra war...Ojukwu declared Biafra when he moved to Enugu in 1967 not 1966. She was correct in saying that Ojukwu asked the Hausas to move back to the north as he cannot guarantee the safety as igbos were talling about retaliating the killings of igbos in the north..and prior to that Ojukwu also had moved the hausa in Enugu into the Army Barrack to protect them..what she narrated about the train being stopped along Imo River was qlso a retaliatory effect of train from Kano and Kaduna with igbos beinf stopped at Kafanchan and slaughtered and the dead bodies brought to Enugu.

    I was repulsed by her defensive, jester-like attitude. And sometimes unnecessary combative responses. I’ll admit she got me earlier when she shed a tear earlier about her losing her 3 yr old child. However, you really have to listen to the end to see why she was combative, sometimes laughing, all while recalling a tragic event where her son was taken and she was in grave fear of being part of an ethnic massacre. I am curious to know she knew about the numerous episodes of slaughter of Igbos by the Arewa in the north. Including the barbaric dumping of dead bodies of the Igbos in train coaches just like the one she was in, who were fleeing just like her. It makes no sense why she and the Gambo guy(her relative) keep laughing and having an unserious attitude throughout the testimony. Lastly, why would an ordinary housewife brag to the attorney and the entire court that she has court experience 😂😂 She was never a defendant except in her own head.😂 where her defense of a concocted story outwardly shows. 😂
