No wonder that 50 years after Gowon left power, he wrote no book about his life even though he was in the thick of things in the tumultuous times between 1966 and 1970.

Gowon cant write any book because he would have had to explain why he went back on an agreement he signed with Ojukwu in front of the then President of Ghana, General Joe Ankrah, in General Ankrah's hill top mansion in Aburi, Ghana.

Going back on that agreement forced Ojukwu to declare Biafra, which made Gowon declare war

Pic1. General Ankrah, Gowon and Ojukwu, eat lunch on the balcony of Ankrahs Mansion in Aburi, during a break from negotiations

Pic2. General Ankrah shakes Ojukwu's hand after Aburi agreement was signed, as Gowon looks on.

Pic 3. General Ankrah, Gowon and Ojukwu clunk glasses after g the Aburi agreement

Pic 4. General Ankrah hugs Ojukwu and Gowon in front of his hill top Mansion in Aburi, Ghana, to the world Press, after the meeting was concluded, signed and agreed.


Who broke the agreement? Who caused war?

Lies can debunked with historical records

Ojukwu was sincerely not looking interested in whatever was going on back then….

Meanwhile…. I mean no disrespect but all plateau men are very foooooolish …
If you have lived in Jos you would agree with me

Ikemba na very mean man…

Why are you so much interested in the things of Nigeria nowadays than Biafra? Is it because your Biafra topmost leaders are in jail right now and achieving Biafra looks more hopeless? If Gowon does not write one, you better use the remaining ipob donation to either write for him or write for your two leaders rusting in jail. to include how kanu and ekpa brought self-destructive war to Igbo land and how they specialize in killing igbos with Igbo donations.

Don't forget the storyline on how they brought Monday stay at home to ruin Igbo businesses and increase faking drugs and baby factory due to poverty they brought to Biafrans. Go ahead to list uncountable numbers of people ipob killed unprovoked. Conclude the chapter that at the end of all these ipob killings of Igbo youths, destruction of Igbo businesses and Monday-Monday south city-wide detention, yet no Biafra! No refund of donations and no future of Biafra on sight

Don't just start I kneel down beg you.
We are still settling issues here on Nairaland and you are bringing this rubbish.

Who is Ojukwu by the way? That bastard?

Have you read what IBB says in his book about Ibos and the ibo coup?, Read below.

The ibos need to tender an apology to Nigeria for triggering the civil war!

This meeting between Gowon and Ojukwu at Aburi was a year after the coup, a lot had happened in between

You people that achieved Nigeria since 1960 only produced worlds poverty capital and one of the most insecure countries on earth where people are killed every day. Nothing to write home about

If you remove designated terrorist groups like IPOB and Bokoharam from Nigeria, Nigeria will even win global peace award. The only major insecurity in Nigeria are ipob and bokoharam that turn Nigeria to killing fields

IPOB wants a referendum to actually have their own country...where is the violence? Which international organization or country calls them Terrorist? How come that people that want their own country are the same people you hate ionately? Is that not deliberate madness that you are actually fighting those you Hate, that want a separate country from you?

As a Yoruba man...why not also list that 'Human parts and organ harvesters' have made the SW an Epidemic center of gruesome murderers and deaths? The amount of people killed in the Sad-wasted region 'SW' which is not at war will make even the devil envious.

Face your Warrant..you despicable cunt faced human parts dealer.

Nonsense

Nigeria is neither the poverty capital of the world nor one of the most insecure countries in the world, the average lgb0 don't know anything but his mouth is too loud.

Its very very hard to believe but it’s actually true ….

I’m guessing you’re plateau by the plenty times you used fooooolish in one statement

Gowon is in his 90's and no longer has all the time in the world. Let him one day tell Nigerians why he went all the way to Ghana to sign an agreement with Ojukwu, an agreement that would have prevented war, only to come back to Nigeria and break that agree, then cause war

Simon Ekpa is arrested in Finland based on what charges?! Is it not TERRORISM?!

Mugu..

Has Ekpa ever claimed to be IPOB?

Your worthless CDS was denied ViSA to Canada. What was that based on?

Your worthless CDS has been shouting that Ekpa will be repatriated and you cunt illiterates cheered. Where is EKPA? Has the Airport Expired or na Canoe, him wan use come from Finland?

BLOODY hatred filled illiterates

On another note.

Awolowo is the smartest man alive. He allegedly raised Ibo soldiers to carry out the 1966 coup and then made Northerners massacre 50,000 Ibos for that cause while he is cooling off in Calabar prison.

Gidgiddy, show us the book Ojuku wrote about the civil war. The only book that Ojuku wrote, he decorated every page for proclaiming his Nigerianess and preaching unity. He no gree talk about Biafra war because he no wan make anybody know the reason he ran away disguised as a woman.

Its foolishness to say its Igbo coup

There was anti- igbo sentiments and envy before then so it was easy for BBC to spin it as Igbo coup and the North and West ran away with it due to envy

Let's toast this Nigerian unity that has come at the cost of ethnic fighting, tribalism, pogroms, millions of civil war dead, suffering, poverty, economic downturn, inflation, insecurity and insurgency

Should we pop champagne now?

Coupists can come from anywhere but they acted on their own. The generality of Igbos did not send them

There was no pogrom. Yoruba and Southern minority tribes were also attacked in the 1966 counter coup so it was not a pogrom against the Ibo people.

1966 massacre of 50k people in the North is not against the Ibos —IBB.

Lastly, I don’t give one F about Nigeria unity. I want the country to break up this moment just like you.

ibos instigated the first coup, turned the guns against their colleagues in the military. Ibos destroyed the regional system and introduced a unitary system. It's karma at work, enjoy it. say whatever you like

Till the end of the world, it will always be an ibo coup. IBB called.

These rumours were amplified by stories of some Igbos gloating over the January killings. Contrary to a promise given after the coup was quashed that the coup plotters would be tried, none was ever brought to trial, although some were detained. On the contrary, a few of the coup plotters were promoted. These confirmed rumours that an Igbo domination of national affairs was in the works.

All the more reason Nigeria should allow Igbos go their seperate way as another country.

The unity of Nigeria has achieved nothing but death, destruction and suffering. The sooner with put an end to this pointless British colonial contraption, go our seperate ways, the better for all

Only if Ojukwu was not land grabbing the minorities with the ibos. Because the COR clearly wanted to be separated from ibos but Ojukwu insisted. We will never allow ibos annex another independent ethnic minorities.

Even General Ankrah would be rolling in his grave, knowing that Gowon betrayed the agreement he officiated, and caused war that claimed millions of lives
