@Kobojunkie

haba. . Did you just write this thrash or it was a sleep of brain.we are talking about head of state and leader of the supreme military council and you are underestimating such post prolly comparing it with jonathan that needs the national assembly to function.ibb is more treacherous than Abacha and today,al-mustapha is rotting in jail simply because he said to be protecting his boss and killed innocent lives as he like.ibb is responsible for every single death,military strikes are exclusively at the order of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces which ibb was during that era.

This is a man that took us on a merry-go-round for 8 blessed years and dropped us from where he picked us up after stripping us of all resources. This is a man who caused all the problems we are facing today. He killed the refineries by refusing to bring out money fo the turn around maintenance, killed Nepa by refusing to modernize its operations. He wanted oil money and when he made enough, he stepped aside, maybe he is going broke again and wants to stuff his dirty pockets once more.

Why are we so cursed as a nation?

Kobojunkie:

That is not true. He may have been president but the June 12th riot killings were not all his responsibility.  Though world war II was started by Hitler, the killings were not all done by him. That is why SS leaders were prosecuted individually for the parts they played. At least 2 persons from my neigborhood, far away from Abuja, were gutted and left in the streets simply for being northerners. What followed were more revenge killings and eventually people started fleeing to their villages for their lives.

I am sorry, it is too easy to blame IBB for it all. Yes, he caused June 12th issues but he didn't kill the people I know were killed. In fact, mst of teh murders were committed not by the police but by individuals. That was the case in most all of Lagos. Even policemen started fleeing for their lives with their families.

i don't know why you are shaking your head ? I asked you who were the people enforcing the curfew placed by the SMC? Where did you stay that the curfew did not reach ?

Kobojunkie:

Did I relate the killings to a curfew in anyway? Where exactly did I state these deaths had something to do with a curfew?  Are we now assuming all the killings happened AFTER curfew?

~Bluetooth:

my point is that a curfew was placed,soldiers were sent out to town on the order of the head of state and they were the ones that carried the killings.there is a link between the killings and ibb.

Kobojunkie:

Did I relate the killings to a curfew in anyway? Where exactly did I state these deaths had something to do with a curfew? Are we now assuming all the killings happened AFTER or BECAUSE Of a Curfew?

So much curfews in the sentence.

Do you want some coffee or something?

Kobojunkie:

lol  . . . . Is this denial or what?

That their was a curfew and soldiers did kill in some areas, should now be interpreted to mean that all killings that took place during that time, in all areas of the country were done by soldiers, and it had to be IBB?

WOW

doyin13:

Are you absolving Babangida of any culpability?

I

Kobojunkie:

It is time to get serious, ok?

People died during those riots . . half of a town RAN AWAY . . . . many more in other parts of the country ran to save their dear lives. And fast forward, 17 years later, we are suddenly denying the truth of what happened so we can SCORE more points against Babangida?

We get it, the man was a buffoon, but responsible for all the killings of the June 12th riot? Definitely not.
