Wow! That's was a powerful instrumental music. The song is "Be still my soul the lord is on your Side". What a great leader he was. Rest Ojukwu
Eloquent. Mere looking at him you're inspired. Rest on Supreme Leader. We miss you
A leader who abandoned his people and fled to the Ivory Coast after declaring an unwinnable war that killed millions of them?
@@tlig It is an unfortunate consequence of the northern invasion of the east. This was the beginning of a great movement for the self-determination of the Igbo people. We will never give up even if we all die for Biafra.
Lol a leader that ran like a rat
Rip to him sha
Eloquent my ass. You run off with ya tail b/w ya ass or better still nnyansh
OMG!! 😲😱 Ojukwu's grammar and accent are epic 😎👌
Great Man... Dim Odumegwu Chukwuemeka Ojukwu...
Dimpka Ndigbo .
I salute your courage in serving
That BIAFRANS are missing you is undisputable truth but,we are at the same time happy that another Ojukwu has emerged in the name of Mazi NNAMDI KANU,may CHUKWUOKIKE ABIAMA continue to protect your soul,Rest in perfect peace,Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu,one thing is certain,the struggle you started MUST be completed by this generation, it's only the best way to keep your soul in perfect peace,our generation will never let what you laboured for to go in vain, our leader Mazi NNAMDI KANU tells us that it will be better for a BIAFRAN man and woman to carry on the formation of the new Biafra than leaving Biafra unrestored,it is either the zoo leave us alone or we pay them with their own coins,all hail Biafra
"beloved in heaven march on"!!...Ahh great man!!...igbos will be forever grateful to you !!...Ezeigbo.
Baba Ojukwu. D 1st graduate to join army in D history of Nigeria no sorry zoo. A brave man and highly educated above what his enemies imagine. God bless u sir.
His education didn't help him in the war, did it? Otherwise, he'd have emerged as the winner instead of cowardly fleeing to the Ivory Coast.
@@tlig Gowon should have implemented the agreement they reached at Aburi. What can you say about that? Ojukwu chose what was best for his people, Gowon the puppet chose war.
What about ironisi
What a Great Man Ojukwu was..
First Graduate to join the Army
Choosing to Carry the responsibility of his people when they begged him to
Even though he could have lived a life 10x happier and free of any trouble if he had not chosen to
( All others from Gowon, to Muritala to Danjuma, to Buhari , to Adekunle , were all stark illiterates .. hence their mindset
Gowon couldn't even comprehend the articles in the Aburi accord
What a shame to them )
There has not been any after him ..
And there are forces keeping Igbos down ..
You can see it in some of the replies here as well..
He is still the hero of Biafra Nigeria,no one equals to his might .No could achieve better than ,Ikenba 1 of IBoland.May his soul rest in peace.
Even here I could sense the courage and pain in his Voice...
May God vindicate all those that died
And all still living under the "no Victor no vanquished"
When he speaks u see freedom
RIP d 👑 king
All hail Biafra!
The war wasn't between Nigeria and Biafra. It was between the Igbo and Nigeria,Egypt Russia ,United Kingdom, US and France until France changed her mind. Biafra soldiers got to Ore until they were asked to withdraw to Enugu by General Victor Banjo.No enemy was pursuing them and that led to the execution of General Banjo and Col.Ifeajuna.People must do away with sentiments and face reality.
He remains d hero for ever
We love you for all times.
Seeking for the freedom and right of your people can never be a crime, all those who made it a crime, will continually lavish in pains.
Onyeze GBURUGBURU! Onyeze mgbedum! The people's GENERAL ! Fare thee well!
Great hero whenever you are we love you
He was in his 30s at this time
So brave and determined, but it was a lost battle
@ Kelechukwu Anozyk. Thank you for being plain with the truth. He was brave and determined, bless his soul but made the mistake of going into war that wasted millions of great innocent souls that we missed dearly . Negotiations will have resolved the differences peacefully . Other nations in Africa got their much needed independence without bloodshed after Biafra war .Love him so much cos he reminded me so much of my father . I just cannot imagine how they were so fluent in languages. Mother tongue, English, French, Spanish . My dad was in Aba for so many years and also spoke the Igbo language fluently along the above mentioned languages.
@@adebayoolubunmi2201 Thank you. Nigeria got their independence in 1960 without bloodshed. Ojukwu was not a party to the Independence accord. It was Nnamdi Azikiwe of Eastern Nigeria who was a party to that. Ojukwu was made Premier of Eastern Nigeria in the mid 1960s, he saw the marginalization of Igbos, the decimation and oppression of Igbo in the North, he couldn't hold it and he moved for secession and war. However, he later regretted all that later in Life, advocated for Nigeria unity and even campaigned for President of Nigeria in 2003
@@kelechukwuanozyk7605 stop with the misinformation, ojukwu was not Premier(civilian governor) ,but Military governor of the Eastern region following the Nzeogwu coup,he went to war because of the killing of innocent eastern military officers and Igbo civilians following the Gowon led counter coup,there were several calls and attempts to get the Gowon led faction to stop the killings to no avail,they even went to aburi, Ghana to deliberate on a peaceful resolution, but Gowon reneged and even went further to dismember the easter region contrary to agreements in Aburi.that"s why the east went to war.and it was not his decision alone,Google the town hall meeting at the UNN auditorium prior to the declaration of war by Biafra,please stop joining with others to misrepresent the fact and the order in which events happened.

@@obiezedaniels5907 I studied Nigerian history in 1999 as an undergraduate and I remember some things that caused the war, but I can't say everything here. Nothing I said was wrong. Yes, Aburi Accord was one of the major reasons for the way where Gowon failed to keep.
Nnamdi Azikiwe was the premier of Eastern Nigeria from around 1940 until independence in 1960, he was a party to the independence a d supported a united Nigeria. Zik never supported the way, even though he was the first prominent Igbo man, first African to get a university degree from American University in 1930 and most respected African at that time. Ojukwu was the leader of Eastern Nigeria, probably it was called Governor and no longer premier at the time he took over. The Biafra war was a failed battle, it set Igbos backwards in mainstream Nigeria. It is also setting the Igbos backwards now
His Name And the Memories will forever live on ...RIP ....
Our beloved leader 💓
2 months later he absconded and Biafra surrendered unconditionally
God bless Biafra 🙌
The question now, though, is how organized is the new Biafra Movement?
I hope it is not just speeches, marches, demonstration and zeal. Which physical border defines Biafra? Where does Biafran land end, and where does Nigeria begin? Is there central financing? Is there a Government already in place, ready to take control?
Great Man.....
May his soul rest in Peace
Poor gallant fool.
When. are leaders spoke eloquently time and generation has changed Nigeria for the very bad
Here he was preparing to run to ivory coast why deceiving the people . Criminal Ojukwu
Great hero of Biafra
I miss you so much father
It all bout revenue gowan refuse him/ them
That leads to all this shambles
ALUTA CONTINUA-. VICTORIA -ATETE
Ojukwu is also in nnamdi KANU
Bro went off 😤
Dem finish am last last
Oh gosh he trembles as he reads.
Cos he's scared to death. The federal troops had encircled his secessionist armies and they were on the brink of defeat. He was just giving them false hope
He was fucking scared. Look at how he was shaking when he was reading the script 🤣🤣
Scared of you I think. Little mind.
Odogwu
Reminds me of a certain General yakasoro of Japan during WW2
Why did he fled then? C'est pas sérieux.
🌞🙏🏿☪️
Where can we find the full video?
But none of his close relatives died in the war or in the starvation. Yet, some people still hail him.
shut up idiot , do not talk in Biafran affairs
Where is M.K.O?
His half brother died in armour with c.k. Kaduna.
Do you know all his relatives..?
Thunder fire you
Lol only. Igbos like him and he ran and left them. what a pity 😂😂😂😂
He represent IGBO man in Every aspect of life, He is a true Hero that only fight to protect his people from this contraption called Nigeria.
#freemnk
Ojukwu wu anu ohia
Your Linage is Anu ohia and I can see that your family linage is part of Ifeajuna linage, I blame your parents for not telling you how We the Igbos treat saboteur
Your generation is Anu ohia, I don't blame you ewu Gambia

The man who led his people to destruction because of greed, abandoned them and fled when the going got tough
Destruction? That's a laughable statement, given the spate of self-destruction happening in other parts of Nigeria, except the SouthEast. Yes, I mean those presently cursed parts whose people were beguiled into fighting against Biafra and killing innocent folks. Your hypocrite leaders, both dead and alive, have blood on their hands, and abandoned you all to wallow in abject poverty and filth. Ojukwu led a good cause and fought a good fight, but many betrayals ruined it all. So, he had to retreat and flee to fight another day.
Bozos of your kind will always not think reasonably or rightly as confusion will forever envelope their minds to speak gibberish of a lion of all times...sorry that your sorrows will multiply, you enemies of a peaceful people of biafra! We'll always hear the news of your destructions as you will never cease to fight yourselves until thy kingdom come for the innocent blood of Biafrans you n your fathers and grandfathers wasted for what does not belong to you but, conspired with the British and came against God's own people!
Fool!!
You contradict history because even a first class idiot knows that the Biafran initiative was in response to state sponsored genocide. You delude yourself with you warped narrative.
@@henrix10 did you say retreat and flee?
Poor gallant fool.
Youssef Camara God punish u fool
You are a bastard. It will never be well with you and your generation. Your poor father will lose his life. You idiot
@@apollosvictor2309 there is no god. So, l am okay with your wishes, espèce d’imbécile.
You've said it right there. He even ran away. What a pathetic coward
Why is he shaking ?? He doesn't believe in himself?
It appears he was the wishful thinker !!!!!
No dear! Ojukwu does not shake , not even at the depth of rage. He's a very controlled entity and always on top. Maybe the wind was blowing the papers.
I think your eyes was just shaking, not ojukwu
I doubt he's shaking... he's one of the most confident leaders Nigeria/Biafra ever had.
In response to Mr. Congeniality, Ojukwu was shaking with emotions. Fear, joy or anger can make you shake. You can shake in apprehension, trepidation or excitement. I am sure you will be deluding yourself if you referred to him as afraid. Even enemies who have been with him at close proximity knew him for what he was, bold, ambitious, intelligent and good at soldiering.
@@ejioguozioma7735 you said maybe the wind? That does not sound like you know what you are talking about
