It is becoming clear the source of Obasanjo's inferiority complex.At an early stage in his carreer the man sold his soul to the North, that's how he replaced Adekunle.Ojukwu's says it without mincing words that Obasanjo was a nobody at the time of Biafra "empty vessels are the loudest".

It is a pity that in 2001, they still talk that language in Nigeria, in a democratic rule. It is even worse that a man who looks forward to a second term should talk in those terms. What Obasanjo did actually was shooting himself in the foot, because I don?t see him going anywhere with that sort of campaign slogan. The people he talked to repudiate it, we the Igbos repudiate it. And we even go further to tell him that no truly-born Igbo man or woman will cast a vote for him unless he apologizes for that type of insult. That is where we are.- Ikemba

I will go a step further and say that any Igbo that cast his vote for Obasanjo in the next election, not only is he not an Igbo, but does not deserve to be a citizen of this world...if you catch my drift.

What was he during the civil war? He was a junior officer. It is only because of the fast movement that he was able to take over from Adekunle. But with all due respects, today, he is a big man, he is the Head of State, he is respected all over the world. And certainly, I can sit down with him and discuss anything, but let us be honest with ourselves. Certainly, if he were in Biafra, he would not be in my war council. He was too junior so that when he and I interpret the war, I smile. He is not that guru that he will pretend to be.- Ikemba

Are we still in doubt that Obasanjo is a fake empty-aired opportunist?
This is a Moron who in his own words offered to resign from the army during the assassination of Murtala. He could not fathom how he could be the head of state of Nigeria Over his Hausa masters. This guy was forced to be head of state by Danjuma.
For this lily-livered pig to turn around and claim victory over Biafra goes against all sanity.

Injustice , Injustice, Injustice! Insanity, Insanity , Insanity!

Stories Untold, Memories withheld...We are living in a world of deceit.

I guess somebody finally lectured Nigerians on Obasanjo. His short circuit intelligence and knowledge of the war has always been questionable. You heard it from the best and the brightest....Ojukwu.

Hail Biafra

First of all I like to point out that Funmi Onodipe have been vindicated by Ojukwu's interviewer. When Funmi Onodipe was banned at Nigeriaworld because she started a thread called Igbo haters in Aso Rock. Some of her fellow yorubas sent her a death threat emails. Today a respectable news media in Nigeria used that same word Obasanjo Igbo hater was used by the journalist who interviewd Ojukwu.

When some of this socalled one Nigeriaist call people like us alarmist and conversative Igbos for speaking out about Obasanjo hatred of Igbos. We were called all kinds of names however today that name have catched on with Obasanjo, I am glad that people like funmi have been vindicated for seeing Obasanjo for what he is.

Was Obasanjo elected through Yoruba leadership?

Wasn't Obasanjo a mechanic in Nigerian army why does he claim or refer to himself as an engineer? Which university did he attend to become an engineer?

By the way, I was a teenager during the war. A Biafran Boys Company, I never heard of Obasanjo but Adekunle the only Yoruba warrior that was very visible with combat.

Just look at the History of cowardness in Nigeria and see where Obasanjo fits..Adisa and Oladipo both cried for their lives and yet they were generals in the Nigerian Army..What a pity.

Biafra was NOT an Igbo war. Biafra was a war for the survival of Igbos and Eastern Minorities. However, for as long as Nigeria and Nigerians continue to claim that Biafra was an Igbo war, then Nigeria and Nigerians must be reminded that it was NOT the Igbos that surrendered Biafra to Obasanjo of Nigeria. The Igbos have NOT surrendered Biafra. While it was the Igbo, General Ojukwu, that led the Biafran war, it was NOT the Igbo, General Ojukwu, that led the so-called surrender of Biafra to Obasanjo of Nigeria; it was General Philip Effiong. General Effiong is NOT Igbo. He is Ibibio. Perhaps, therein lies the reality that the Biafran war is NOT over between Obasanjo of Nigeria and the Igbos of Biafra. Those who consider Biafra to be an Igbo war must accept that the surrender of Biafra by a non-Igbo was a defective surrender, and therefore lacks legal force. (emphasis original, italics mine).

Obasanjo is a desperate and defeated man who is not prepared nor expecting the dawn of the Rising Sun which is caterpaulting Biafra's children to the shores of freedom.
He's a sad and broken man who's feverishly playing all the cards to make Biafrans stay in Nigeria.

The only alternative (this offer is for a limited time only) for Obasanjo and his Northern masters (if they want Nigeria salvaged) is to thoroughly step aside and have competent Biafrans assume the total realms of Nigerian affairs...both internally and externally. Biafra has been tried and tested in effective, world capacity leadership...militarily, economically, technologically, educationally, socially, culturally, etc.

Obasanjo won't redress neglect, says Onoh
From Sunny Igboanugo, Enugu

GORY details of atrocities allegedly committed against the Igbo by the Federal Government continued to reverberate yesterday with former Enugu State Governor Christian Onoh posting a negative verdict: No hope of redress from the Olusegun Obasanjo-led government.

Onoh, who was led in evidence by Chief Philip Udeadi (SAN) as the 14th witness of the Ohaneze Ndigbo at the Justice Chukwdudifu Oputa Human Rights Violations Investigation panel sitting in Enugu, said that Obasanjo has, through his actions and utterances shown that he is not prepared to help the Igbo.

Amid thunderous applause from the audience, he told the commission that the president who set up the commission, "does not like Ndigbo."

"What is coming out of our president's mouth leaves us with no choice than that of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh" he declared.

Onoh whose claim further elongated the series of evidences by Ohaneze which since Wednesday has given details of crimes against the Igbo during the civil was as well as their sustained marginalisation including seizure of their property, added that since the war ended, there has been a deliberate plan to short-change the Igbo.

According to him, successive federal governments had ensured that the economies of the Igbo were stunted, through a policy of underdevelopment.

He cited the non-development of all the natural resources in the South East to buttress his point.

Onoh who said he had practiced as a lawyer for 45 years, stated that as the first chairman of the Nigerian Coal Corporation (NCC), the nation's first exploitable mineral resource, he had watched the deliberate killing of the corporation and the coal industry as well as the decapitation of the power plant at Oji River, Enugu State that supplied electricity to the people of the Eastern region.

The same attitude, he claimed, has seen to the comatose condition of the Nkalagu Cement Factory.

Besides, Onoh said that the government has continued to tap the oil from the Niger Delta region, while deliberately ignoring the same oil in Enugu State on the excuse that the oil is "strategic reserve."

For instance, he told the commission that oil has been located in abundance at Umurunu, Anambra State, and Iga in Enugu where he said he was forced to buy 400 acres of land around the area.

"That was where they were drilling oil before the war started. Now it is abandoned" the former governor said, adding: "There is another one at Ugwuoba. And they tell us it is strategic reserve. Oil is drilled in a belt. And within that belt it stretches. Therefore, if you drill a spot, you are still removing the same oil within the same belt," he said.

He explained that the oil that has been designated "strategic reserve" was actually being drilled from elsewhere.

He supplied details of what the mineral resources, especially coal, did for the country in the Past, relying on his experience also as the Chairman of the Nigerian Mining Corporation and the Nigerian Association of Oil Mines claimed that even Ghana was then relying on Nigerian coal to sustain its power.

He lamented that all these came to a stop as a result of the civil war.

In fact, the elderstatesman said he had written to Obasanjo on the situation, in a memo titled 'Nigerian Coal Corporation Yamutu Otiku Onwuola' (Coal Corporation is dead). In it, he pointed out that if the corporation was reactivated, it could fire the Ajaokuta Steel Company as well as the Nkalagu Cement Factory.

According to him, even the siting of the Ajaokuta Steel Company in its present location was political, adding that a feasibility study conducted by Russian experts had recommended that the company be located at Onitsha, Anambra State because of its closeness to sources of raw materials abundant within the area.

Another witness, Mazi Ukabi Ukpabi testifying on the Aro-Ikwere crisis, told the commission of how the federal troops during the war destroyed their houses and how their long time neighbours, the Ikwere people, turned against them and warned them to leave their acensstral home or they would be killed.

Faced with immediate threat, they were forced to leave to settle down in a refugee camp where they have lived for the past 31 years under abject poverty.

Asked if his Aro people would want to be re-located back to their houses, Ukpabi said from the look of things, that option appeared impossible, given the hostility of the Ikwere people.

To them, the only way to remedy the situation was for the Federal Government to build houses for them in their new settlement as well as provide them with basic amenities to enable them forget their past experiences.
