Chief Ajayi Olaniwun,I read our comment with distaste, Achebe was right in all his statements,amd remember that today the problem with Nigeria remains 100% loyalty to ones ethnic group first and the country later if possible. Awolowo did not stop the war but helped by introducing a policy of starvation of Biafran soldiers ,women and children, is that one of the ways to stop war in ones country, let alone reducing the Ibos money to 20 pounds and declare all their properties abandoned.Still as a fellow Yoruba, nothing was wrong with this policy, who is then a tribalist -OJUKWU OR ZIK, Ojukwu brought him out of Calabar prison during the war and sent him to his people unharmed, did any of you Yorubas thanked him for that.After taking the properties of the Ibos and caging them after the civil war, at the age of 52 what can Nigeria boast of.Cameroon gendarme came to Nigeria and killed four healthy Soldiers and went free, now your land has been taken and the indigene now homeless , what did your country do-nothing and Achebe as a Lion that he is said that “there was a country” you want to attack him even Ebenezer Babatope , if this will be regarded as war ,it is good so that the truth will come out once in Nigeria.Ogbuefi Ebesi David

Chief Ajayi Olaniwun,I read our comment with distaste, Achebe was right in all his statements,and remember that today the problem with Nigeria remains 100% loyalty to ones ethnic group first and the country later if possible. Awolowo did not stop the war but helped by introducing a policy of starvation of unarmed defenseless women,children and soldiers. Is this not a war crime? Is this one of the ways to stop war in ones country, let alone reducing the Ibos and their money to 20 pounds and declare all their properties abandoned. Still as a fellow Yoruba, nothing was wrong with this policy, who is then a tribalist-OJUKWU OR ZIK, Ojukwu brought him out of Calabar prison during the war and sent him to his people unharmed, did any of you Yorubas thanked him for that.After taking the properties of the Ibos and caging them after the civil war, at the age of 52 what can Nigeria boast of.Cameroon gendarme came to Nigeria and killed four healthy Soldiers and went free, now your land has been taken and the owners of the land now homeless , what did your country do-nothing and Achebe as a Lion that he is said that “there was a country” you want to attack him even Ebenezer Babatope , start the war and let the truth be told and all stolen wealth and positions will come out.
See Igbo people have suffered too much in a country they put in everything to be liberated from colonial rule,I will say that the British punished the Ibos during the war for taking power away from them but being hated by the rest of the country remains the highest price.All Nigerian westerners of integrity should be courageous enough to face the truth and say it no matter who is affected but it will never happen in Nigeria .All of us know why, good policy will never succeed in Nigeria as well as other good things, check the records.
