[quote author=DonTattaglia post=109816224] 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..[/ quotwhat was the title of the book that you read?because banjo was arrested while he was waiting to see ironsi,so it will be good to read your own version 3 Likes |

asanausana91:Don't you think history suppose to be an important subject that suppose to be thought and comp subject in secondary. It suppose to be in the same level as English and math. History is every important but because of minister that his children are abroad and because our unity we decided that history is not important. That's why you come here and say things that are not facts it will just end up as a hear say. I will check it out or ask |

Mrquote:History is still taught in schools. In some states, it is a compulsory subject at the primary school level, it is also mandatory for students at the junior secondary level to study the subject at least in virtually all the states in Southwestern Nigeria. The reason why History as a school subject isn't as prominent as it was in those days can be adduced to a declining interest among students especially at the Senior Secondary level due to a host of factors ranging from Government neglect, pedagogy...etc. |

Mrquote:The problem with History as a school subject is multifarious. While many will adduce it to government neglect (there are a host of other factors). However, Nigerians in general have contributed to killing History, reasons why there has been a growing disinterest in the subject in schools. It is only quite recently that Nigerians are beginning to appreciate the value of History and it's importance as a school subject. |

Mrquote:You finished quite recently...Actually, prior History as a subject was much alive in schools, though it was loosing its prominence, but the Federal Government accelerated the pace of disinterest in the subject in 2007 by deemphasizing it from the teaching curriculum (reasons why it become absent in most schools). Hitherto, while History was not a core subject among the humanities based subjects, it was seen as important. |

BKayy: You forget how Azikiwe backstabbed to become President... Or how he was conveniently outside the Country during the Jan 15th Coup? Lies! So it was Akintola-Awolowo politics that drove the coup plotters to their moment of insanity? Besides why was the said Awolowo never released? If I want to put someone in Power, while I set about killing the others who stand in his way, I will also effect his release. Promptly! As the succes of my plans rests on him being alive and well. Awolowo was not released, so I wonder where these lies come from. 7 Likes |

Or Azikiwe not being in the Country during the coup. Pretty conveneient don't you think?
