The Japanese say "if you believe everything you were taught in school,then you aren't supposed to go to school" This simply implies that you should wear your thinking cap while digesting what you were taught in school. If Ironsi destroyed regionalism as the writer alleged, what did Gowon disband in 1967 with decree 14? Secondly, if Ironsi destroyed regionalism, why was parts of the Constitutions of the regions that had nothing to do with elections and appointments in use, 8 months after his death? Finally, why was the resource sharing formula at independence maintained under him,until Gowon suspended it in 1967 when Biafra was declared? The truth is that the history of this country is very distorted to support an agenda, unfortunately the truth always have a way of showing itself. Not everyone is zombie. |

IRONSI AND HIS TEAM LIVED THEIR LIVES IF YOUR FATHER DID SOMETHING THAT WORKED FOR HIS TIME AND DOES NOT WORK FOR YOUR OWN TIME, WHAT DO YOU DO? CHANGE IT. BELOW ARE THE ONLY TWO OPTIONS LEFT FOR US AS NIGERIANS TO SALVAGE WHAT IS LEFT OF THIS PRESENT TERRORIST LED COUNTRY. 1)REGIONAL GOVT/DEVOLUTION OF POWER 2)BALKERNIZATION/DISMEMBERING OF NIGERIA ANY OTHER OPTION IS A FAILURE ALREADY THEY OPPRESSED PEOPLE OF NIGERIS HAVE HAD ENOUGH AND HAVE BEEN PUSHED TO THE WALL.

Why did Igbos in Aguiyi Ironai destroy regionalism ? What was contained in confederalism that was lacking in regional government? I have personally asked Kanu this question but till date no Igbo is intelligent enough to provide an answer. For igbos that do not understand the 2. It is an exact replica of eating your cake n still wanting to have it. Igbos saw a prosperous Nigeria n out of greed wanted all it goodies to themselves but as fate will have it they lack the numbers to achieve that democratically n Azikwe finance a coup to enthroned himself there by ruining the democracy inherited from the British forever. The coup Imposed a lunatic in Aguiyi Ironsi who truncated Regional Government n Imposed unitary govt so that the cocoa wealth from the West n ground nut wealth from the north will be brought under a foolish Igbo control in addition to the wealth from the East. A counter coup depose Ironsi n Igbos declared war because the rest of Nigeria will not allow the wealth to be cornered by these bastards. They were soundly beaten and after losing the war n realizing unitary government they impose on others as taken their own wealth to the center where it is shared among wolves with little or nothing for them they concorted Aburi accord. So I ask if all that was in Aburi accord was all Igbos wanted they should list 3 thing in it that does not exist in Regional government before they plan the coup to destroy it. If no Igbos is able to tell us 3 things that is in Aburi accord but missing when we had regional government why are igbo now asking for what we have always had without a fight ? Shouldn't Igbos admit their guilt in taking Nigeria through a needless war only to ask for all they we had before the war without a single thing more ?! OfoIgbo: 4 Likes |

Coldie:Hear yourself greedy Igbo " what Ironsi did was right", why are you nyamiri people complaining everyday of marginalisation by almajiris? Ironsi did that to dominate other region and control them but we were smarter than you nyamiri people. You people will never rule Nigeria, you can only rule yourselves in ESN IPOD controlled government. 2 Likes |

pricklewane: FIrst of all, I have never been a fan of Ironsi or Azikiwe. But in support of Ironsi, he only suspended regionalism. He didn't abolish it. But before he could lift the suspension, northerners killed him, and yet northerners never considered lifting the suspension of regionalism Again, Ojukwu arranged confederation for Nigeria, and Nigeria also refused to adopt confederation. So basically, northerners do not want to lift the suspension on regionalism. Also northerner do not want to adopt confederation, proposed by the Igbos. The fault in the structure of Nigeria lies squarely with northerners and other Nigerians. 3 Likes |

Naajjii: Because he came in as a military ruler, and military people are much more in tune with command and control and with one person being the ultimate leader. He filled the void left by Nzeogwu and Ademoyega's coup. He was comfortably the head of the army and was happy in that position, before junior officers struck, because of the Fulanisation of that era being championed by the Sardauna of Sokoto. He suspended it because of the above reason, and he didn't abolish it, because he knew he was only going to stay there for a short while, before democratic elections are held for another civilian to take over. A civilian administration would automatically remove the suspension placed on the unitary government. But northerners killed him, and yet didn't remove the suspension. Rather the northerners refused to acquiesce to confederation, but instead further removed resource control and more powers from the regions and states. 1 Like |

The same lie that was peddled that the coup was an Igbo coup by the British and via the newspaper in Lagos not minding the fact that people from different tribes even Northerners participated.
