    This unjust execution must have brought the defeat of Biafra

    Col Banjo was acquitted by the first Court Martial but Ojukwu quickly sent him for a second Kangaroo court martial and executed him ,Alale,Agbam,Ifeajuna almost immediately with no rights of appeal .
    Ojukwu rejected their advice that the War was hopelessly unwise and Biafra was heading for certain devastating defeat .
    Their predictions all came to pass

    Even before the first gunshots of the war were fired, the odds were 99 : 1 against Biafra.
    It is futile to declare a republic that cannot be defended. No wise leader will commit his people to such wilful suicide. Luke 14 vs 31-32.
    Ojukwu instead of insisting that he doesn't recognize Gowon should have taken the option of fleeing Nigeria in 1967 as Ogundipe did.
    Gowon would have appointed another Igbo military governor for Eastern region, there would have been no civil war.
    The fact is that Ojukwu saw an opportunity to fulfill his personal ambition. The real reason he joined the army.
    Biafra remains a huge mistake considering the dire consequences. Ndigbo now live in political servitude in Nigeria with no chance of emancipation in the near future.
    Before Biafra war, Ndigbo occupied preeminent position in Nigeria.

      Thank You for your intelligent assertion which the Ibos did not know about their so-called deceptive visionless ruler Emeka Ojukwu who was greedy, jealousy and desperate for power at all costs. Gowon really took the matter so light with Ojukwu in the beginning as his military friend just for peace to reign that is why Ojukwu dragged him up to the senseless civil war. There is not much communication system that time, Ibos were in total black out and misinformed by Ojukwu and his clicks. Ojukwu military career and leadership ambition was over immediately Ironsi was overthrown that is why he insisted to make the country ungovernable for Gowon because Ojukwu knew very well that Gowon's government will retire or discharge him from service as soon as they settled down. The greatest mistake Ironsi did in his life was to appoint Ojukwu as a military governor of the defunct Eastern region due to his closeness with Ojukwu's father and Ojukwu's so-called university graduate of that era while there are other top eastern Nigerian military men in the army who seniors Ojukwu in service as at then.

    The Victor Banjo case is a miscarriage of Justice. Himself and Ifeajuna were unjustly killed by illegal and unconstitutional rebel state of Biafra. In other words he was a victim of Ojukwu,neurosis.

    I remember Prof Wole Soyinka saying he asked for the justification for the murder of this man and other innocent ones like him but there wasn't any tangible answer from Ojukwu - GENESIS9v5-6. DEUTERONOMY5v17&20. The Prof believed that we should draw a line under this and move on. Apparently, the worst is being experienced from the fulanis for very obvious reasons hidden under the name nigeria.
    The Biafrans must take comfort in the provision made by GOD ALMIGHTY not to visit the sins of the fathers on the children where the latter are doing HIS WILL which I believe this current generations of Biafrans do better than we the Yorubas - DEUTERONOMY5v8-11.
    Yoruba Nation, Biafra, Kwararafa, Hausa and the Kanuri Nations along with the birth of Kaaro-Ojiire kingdom will be realised "EFFORTLESSLY" if we take this route to the Glory of JESUS CHRIST. AMEN.
