Deadlytruth: Oga I am still on you, you cannot escape this one. Show us here the authorisation statement from igbos ordering Nzeogwu and ifeajuna to kill. Also what tribe was Col Arthur Unegbe from? |

Irony1:Did I say Ohaneze as a group? So as an Igbo person you don't even understand your language? My use of Ohaneze is in the sense of Igbo generality back then not in that of what is now know officially as Ohaneze Ndigbo. What you had then was Igbo State Union (ISU) with Zik as president of it. Did Zik on behalf of ISU condemn Nzeogwu and co? Rather he was tipped off and he ran away. If it was not an Igbo agenda, then how come when Ifeajuna got to Enugu in the evening of that day and on sighting Opara whose name was on the hit list, went inside the Premier's lodge with him to have a discussion after which Michael Opara assisted him to escape to Ghana? Why didn't he stop over in Benin to kill Dennis Osadebe but drove past? From which prison was Nzeogwu released after which he went for espionage and got killed? 2 Likes |

tishbite42: A group of igbos told a Yoruba guy that they would kill govt officials and hand over power to a Yoruba man, just to convince him to join them so as to pretend the coup was a national coup. He believed them (first rule; never believe another man, especially if that other man is igbo). By the body count he should know what the coup was all about. 1 Like |

Irony1: You are simply dumb. So you expected a people planning a coup, which is naturally a very secretive plot, to have publicly issued an authorization to those billed to execute it? When I say you attended a bush school I know what I am saying. Colonel Unegbe was not in the hit list prepared by the coupists so his killing or otherwise does not amount to anything in meaning. There was a hit list composed of Igbos, Yorubas, Hausas and some Niger Deltan. Unegbe's name was not among. In the execution, all the Igbos in the hit list were spared but their counterparts from other tribes were killed. There were also individuals from other tribes who were not in the hit list but killed accidentally like with Unegbe so bringing in Unegbe is meaningless. Focus on the hit list and tell us how come no Igbo in the hit list received a bullet. 2 Likes |

Deadlytruth: Ohhhh my God another lie from you again see the excerpts from Gamji on the aftermath of the coup "Virtually all the principal plotters were arrested, including Ifeajuna who had fled across the border under disguise and ended up in Ghana where he was welcomed by President Kwame Nkrumah, a formidable ideological foe of Balewa. The military who overthrew Nkrumah extradited Ifeajuna to Nigeria in March 1966" Ifeajuna never went to Enugu to see Okpara. In fact according to Achebe's book, Madiebo's book and Obasanjo's book on nzeogwu. Ifeajuna was helped to the border by Christopher Okigbo, who was his friend from his days in University of Ibadan Okpara never assisted Ifeajuna to escape to Ghana. |

LaRosa01: Never seen a better description of both tribes anywhere. Really apt. Fulanis and ibos are same in their desires. The difference is, the Fulanis are intelligent and calculating in achieving their plans, while the ibos are loud, brash, and don't have enough intelligence to plan. 1 Like |

Someone who was a quartermaster general of the army and a close friend of Maimalari of which if he was spared would have rallied troop to crush the coup hence Col Arthur Unegbe and other battalion commander were marked for death, even Ojukwu was marked to be taken out by Nzeogwu so that they would have control over 5th battalion Kano. |

Irony1: That guy is a funny individual. Every few months he will create a thread and say it was Ironsi that abolished the Regions with decree 34, a civil service decree. When shown irrefutable evidence that Gowon abolished all 4 Regions and created 12 states, with Decree 14, he will start talking about a broadcast Ironsi is purported to have made When shown decree 15 where Gowon removed resource by removing section 141 and 164 of the constitution, down to the amount he would pay the 12 states he created, the person will start talking nonsense Craze dey worry some people |

Irony1: Insult over objectivity. The typical Igboman's approach to arguments. Schooling in the east proves that the brain of an average Igbo does not have the frontal lobe and prefrontal cortex. The parts responsible for critical reasoning. This is why Igbos often resort to vitriols in every argument. 1 Like |

Deadlytruth: Read this. So that you will see that a coup was carried out in the east In Max Silloun’s book, “Oil, Politics and Violence: Nigeria’s Military Coup Culture” (page 54), he wrote: “Contrary to popular myth, a coup was attempted in Enugu (East) and Benin (Mid-west). Overnight Major Ifeajuna sent orders to the first battalion in Enugu asking them to deploy soldiers to take over key installations and arrest government ministers in Enugu and Benin. As there was no military formation in the Mid west, no soldiers could be deployed directly from the region. For several hours the officers mulled over the strange but seemingly legitimate order (my explanation: operationally, the first battalion was under the command of the Lagos-based second brigade commanded by Brigadier Maimalari. Ifeajuna was the brigade major and could pass off instructions in that capacity, but they must be approved by Maimalari, a no-nonsense officer who trusted his brigade major. Alas, he was not aware of the illegality Ifeajuna was perpetrating in his official capacity). Finally, they took position at the Enugu airport in the early hours of the morning. A different company of soldiers under Captain Joseph Ihedigbo also headed to the Mid west region’s capital of Benin. The Igbo premier of the region Dennis Osadebey subsequently speculated that the life of the Eastern region’s premier, Dr. Michael Okpara, was spared because the head of state of Cyprus, Archbishop Makarios, was his guest at the time of the coup. A more plausible reason for Okpara’s survival is that the officer assigned to arrest him (Lieutenant Oguchi) was one of those who advocated a bloodless coup. As soon as Makarios departed to return to Cyprus, Okpara was arrested.” |
