Poor Gen Gowan, he was a Puppet of the British government but did the best he could post the civil war. The interesting question will be for him to ask if he is happy with the security situation in the middle belt where he’s from? What’s happening to the Igbos since 1944, culminating in a civil war, presiding over mass starvation and 20 pounds to all Ibos regardless of wealth…(to pauperise them) but pushing slogans from the Colonial Masters (“No Victor No Vanquished”, Reconciliation, Rehablitation forgotten the the other word, “To Keep Nigeria One, A Task that Must be Done”). He gave up Nigerian territory to Cameroon/France, to punish biafra. We should have investigative study of our history for posterity to learn from. The problems with the absence of historical knowledge understanding is why we are struggling with insecurity today but the Old General Gowan can only keep mute to prevent embarrassment.
It's so sad that History as a subject was cancelled in your country because if it hadn't been cancelled, no one would have asked a question if there was a beef or not between Obasanjo and Gowon. A coup of Murtala & Obasanjo against Gowon in 1975 was the genesis of the beef.
That was the time huge infrastructure should have been put in place. Unfortunately, the money was wasted. No public drinking water, no other region that was developed outside Lagos and Abuja, even these states have no public drinking water, etc……….
I had a similar situation with someone owning to have participated in an event some years ago when actually he was never in that activity at all, so memories sometimes fail some people.
Obasanjo na real Yoruba man. It was a clever way of telling Yakubu Gowon THANKS FOR NOTHING.
In my opinion some elder statesman should be seen and not be heard

Our problem was not money during Gowon's regime, but how to spend it, 😂😂😂😂 and so we started partying😂😂😂. No remorse looking back?
