Revisionist History: Gowon alledges that Ojukwu lied about Aburi Accord

In preparedness for his planned lecture on Biafran-Nigerian War at the Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu Unibversity, Anambra State, the former military dictator of Nigeria Gen. Yakubu Gowon is revising history to clear his soiled hands on the devastating war that led to the deaths of over 4 Million Biafrans.

Exposing Gowon's lies: The complete minutes of the Aburi Accord - The Official Minutes

Official Record of the Minutes of the Meeting of Nigeria's Military Leaders held at Aburi.

The Supreme Military Council held its meeting in Ghana on the 4th-5th January.

Republic of Biafra Anthem

Land of rising sun, we love and cherish,
Beloved homeland of our brave heroes;
We must defend our lives or we shall perish,
We shall protect our hearts from all our foes;
But if the price is death for all we hold dear,
Then let us die without a shred of fear.

Hail to Biafra, consecrated nation,
O fatherland, this be our solemn pledge:
Defending thee shall be a dedication,
Spilling our blood we’ll count a privilege;
The waving standard which emboldens the free
Shall always be our flag of liberty.

We shall emerge triumphant from this ordeal,
And through the crucible unscathed we’ll pass;
When we are poised the wounds of battle to heal,
We shall remember those who died in mass;
Then shall our trumpets peal the glorious song
Of victory we scored o’er might and wrong.

Oh God, protect us from the hidden pitfall,
Guide all our movements lest we go astray;
Give us the strength to heed the humanist call:
To give and not to count the cost’ each day;
Bless those who rule to serve with resoluteness,
To make this clime a land of righteousness.

The Biafran
