A Coup that was masterminded, orchestrated and executed by key heartless people like ; Chukuwama Nzeogwu, Anuforo,Onwuatuegwu, Emmanuel Efeajuna, Humphrey Chukwuma, Don Okafor from one tribe and One ethnic group is what?


Is it a Fulani coup? Our problem in this country is when the truth is against our interest or affiliations, we always tend to see it as campaign of calumnies against us.

Truth should always be truth, irrespective of whether it favour us or not.

that's why we ate your God like suya..smoke his bolls out.

hahahahahahaha...weaklings

Rickmann:



Kaduna nzeogwu never believed in Biafra...so It was a military coup and not an igbo coup.

Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu was simply a man carried away by youthful exuberance. A soldier who wanted the best for his country, bold and brave, who did not understand that the problem with Nigeria was more than a band of young Majors could solve with the barrel of the gun.

Thanksful:


So today now there is no place called Niger Delta because Nzogu is from Niger Delta?

I want all those people from Niger Delta to come out and agree with you now.

It was an Ibo coup. Simple and plain. Nobody should attempt to rewrite history

Because of this year’s election, this year’s Armed Forces Remembrance Day has taken different dimensions with some elements trying to remind some Nigerians who killed their ancestors.

But what is most interesting is that all of these people are tagging the infamous 1966 coup as an Igbo coup as they have always done; erroneously so.

But it was this same people that would remind the Aniomas of Delta State that they are not Igbos.

So, I want to know what changed… Kaduna Nzeogwu is from Okpanam in Delta State.

Why is Kaduna Nzeogwu from Okpanam an Igbo man but Okpanam is not an Igboland, and everyone else in Okpanam are not Igbos?

GeneralPula:
Igbos are cancer to Nigeria..

They’re the worst thing to ever happened to Nigeria..

Before the coup, Igbos were dominating Nigeria military interms of numbers. This was one of the reasons why they planned the coup. They knew they have the numbers incase things go south..

The main reason behind the coup was Igbos wanting to grab and take total control of the government. Tho, at the beginning of the coup, Nigeria citizens thought it was a war against bad governance. 22 people were killed, including the then prime ministers, top government workers and senior Army officers. Of all, no igbo was among the top officials that was killed. It was then Nigerians started re-thinking that how could it be so? Only yoruba and northern officials got killed.

It was at this point people started believing this wasn’t fight against bad governance but a coup by Igbos. Immediately After the coup, the commanding officer of Nigeria army, Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi took over as the head of state - making him the first ever military head of state..

Nigerians had believed he’s going to punished all the coup plotters, but to their surprise, he didn’t punished nor sanctioned them. Many people got so pained and started seeing Igbos as enemy of the state. This was how the Igbos successfully catalyzed the civil war..

If you see any Igbo man forming any form of victim regarding civil war, just hiss and move on. They’ve been misguided with misinformation’s. While Igbos were handling power, they scrap they regionalism system of Nigeria, simple cuz they wanted to be controlling the whole region from within..

After they had scrap the regionalism, their planned failed cuz there was a counter coup that got Ironsi killed. Fast forward to today, they’re the ones forming victim..

As a Nigerian, anybody can accuse you of being tribal, but definitely not an Igbo man..

DenreleDave:


Lies.. It was an Igbo coup.... They just hate other tribes

DMerciful:
There is no tribe called Niger Delta. He said tribe but you changed it to place

Penguin2:


You are the first person I’m hearing accuse Ironsi of masterminding the coup. Nobody has done that before, including scholars.

The only thing that has ever been used against Ironsi was his prevarication to prosecute the coup plotters.

So, where are you getting your narratives?

Ganiyu Adeleke,
Ademoyega Adewale
Fola Oyewole

Were Yoruba officers who were all part of the coup plotters according to Maj. Ademoyega's book 'Why we struck'. That is the only accurate book written on the coup as it was written by an active participant of the coup..

Thanksful:


So we have enough ibo tribe in niger delta

christistruth01:
There is a difference between Igbo Speaking and Igbo

For example Plateau State is Hausa Speaking but not Hausa

Parts of Edo State like Akoko Edo are Yoruba Speaking but not Yoruba

Americans are English Speaking but not English

Nzeogwu is Igbo Speaking but they see themselves as offshoot Of Benin

TheGoodJoe:


It is not an Igbo coup. These are individuals that took personal actions. I have never heard people tag Buhari's coup a northern coup.

Imagine arresting armed robbers from North and tag it a Northern robbery.

These people do not make a millionth of the Igbos.

DMerciful:
You're not making sense. What do you mean by enough?

WelcomeToBiafra:
Please tell us & this generation the cause of the so called Igbo coup, because Akwa Biafra territory was also affected by Nigeria war against Igbo/Biafra.

The only solution to end this war, is very simple. Conduct a Referendum this year instead of another fraudulence election in Igbo/Eastern territory.

If not, so called Nigerians are deceiving themselves with one Nigeria scam.


Biafrans knows the truth already. British shared Igbo territory into south south and southeast (divide & rule strategy), today all of you had been brainwashed to be shouting south south and southeast.

You see, 60 years ago Easterners were agitating for Restructuring, Nigerians refused. 2019 during election Nigerians were shouting Restructuring but today how far? Since 1999 Easterners have been agitating for the peaceful Referendum, yet Nigerians are making another mistakes again refusing peaceful Biafran agitation for Referendum... Very soon door for Referendum will close, then Nigerians will start shouting Referendum.


There will be no Nigerians election in Igbo territory. U gat it?

tollyboy5:

Igbo leaders mastermind the coup. Azikwe escape was never a miracle and premier of the Easter region didn't survived miraculously, stopping talking as if the rest of Nigerians are dummy.

Thanksful:


Nah you wey no make sense. What did you understand by enough?

Ok I will correct that but the Egbirra Language is very close to the Yoruba Language

Doesn’t Ajaokuta sound Yoruba to you ?
