mightyhaze:Oga, take it or leave it you're you're the one parroting lies or trying to rewrite history to suite your own purpose. The January. 15, 1966 coup is more of Igbo coup. That does not however meant that the whole Igbo race were in support of it's repercussions later affected millions of innocent souls both Igbo & non Igbo. For me rather than being defensive why don't we learn some lessons from it & move on as a one Nation. Thank you & God bless you real good.

BKayy: You guys always find a way to twist narrative and whine about Yoruba this, Yoruba that. Yorubas have never been the problem but you people. The officers who planned the coup did not involve Awolowo or any Tiv civilian in the planning and implementation of the coup. Besides, it was not officers drawn from Yoruba and other regions that failed in eliminating the Igbo politicians that were slated for execution. The Prime Minister and Northern premier(Northerners), the premier of the West and Okotiebor of Midwest were eliminated. Mention one Igbo politician eliminated. At the end of the bruhaha, an Igbo officer named Ironsi hijacked the coup and formed a unitary government which template is still in use today. Everybody is always the problem except you people. Nonsense. 23 Likes 5 Shares |

ViperAda: Lies... where did you read your own history from? Lt. col. Arthur Unegbe was in charge of the Armory, he was shot because he refused to had over the keys. So the Coup plotters assumed him to be against them, and in support of the present government whom they accused of being excessively corrupt. Most of you read the history of the war from the white man prospective, and ignoring what the key players in the even has to say. 2 Likes |

BKayy: Am from a minority tribe in Benue state, but truth be told, d useless tribe called Yoloba are backstabbers. After my bitter experience in my university days in d South West, I swore I will NEVER NEVER do anything with them when it comes to accomplishing a task as a group. That coup had Banjo & very few Yoloba army officers involved. Anybody claiming otherwise is distorting history & will receive the wrath of spreading false information on such sensitive. Awolowo was d supposed beneficiary of that coup if it had succeeded, but unfortunately it didnt succeed as planned. Ironsi who now took over power didnt help matters, instead of court marshalling & executing d coup plotters, he chose to just leave them in detention. Hausas perceived it as an igbo coup becos most of the casualities were northern elites, few Yoloba politicians like Akintola etc, & just only 1 Igbo officer. But it is grossly misquoted to be an igbo coup. No thanks to Ironsi who further garnished that belief.. 5 Likes |

dragunov:God bless you my brother. Let us contend without accepting that Baba Awolowo was wrongly jailed did he asked them to carry out a coup on his behalf? For you to understand how much Baba hated shedding of blood, I recall the afternath of 1983 election & prior to Buhari's coup when Bola Ige & other governors in the SW were instigating their people to torment trouble, Baba had to called them to order by reminding them that he never did such since 1959 that he had been losing elections in Nigeria. As for the TIV's riot, was their leader Joseph Tarka not part if Gowon's Administration? Was Godwin Daboh not part of the people that went round Ikeja Army Barracks instigating Northern soldiers to stage a counter coup under the pretence that he was an Insurance Sales Agent? Who I'd the Chairman of Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) today? Is not Audu Ogbe? Is he a Southerner? Why crying more than the bereaved if one has no ulterior motives? Why ead Baba Awolowo was not released immediately Ironsi took over if indeed he was perceived to have been jailed wrongly? Why did Gowon used the word... pardon...when he was being released?
