Not sure how and where you get these classics from. Can you teach a history class online just from your clips? Lol

What is interesting is that 2.5 million people died during the Biafra War, roughly 5% of the population of Nigeria at the time. Bear in mind, 4% of the Soviet population perished in Stalin's industrialization. As I always point out over and over, the chaos Africa has endured has killed a greater portion of its population, repeatedly, than any totalitarian regimes industrialization, and Africa has nothing to show for it. The choice is not between freedom and totalitarianism, but the chaos of inaction, with its continued suffering, death, and poverty, and totalitarianism to finally bring order and development to the society. But it seems that Africans are content to continue and chaos and misery.

Watching Brigadier Ogundipe speak this boldly, makes me to wonder where some non Yoruba tribes in Nigeria, get the idea of Yorubas being cowards. I think its this misplaced stereotype, that facilitates & undermines the Yoruba's adversaries to always lose to them on several sides, be it in war or politics. A race that fought over 100 years war amongst itsef (1798-1898), cannot be relegated into the notion of cowardice. I pity those who still harbor such impression. We dont fight wars we will lose, we only end them.

Yourbas are strategic people they normal don't go into things without planning and thinking things through, a delayed response to things is not cowardice
