SeeWahala: They will try to bend the truth but we know better. Sad history was deleted from school curriculum but I think recently they have started to bring it back though not yet widely spread cos I thought history while I was still a teacher ( especially in primary school ) |

Coldie: This also reminds me of how Goodluck Jonathan and Buhari were cleverly packaged before they became President. Until the masses put aside their differences and stop heaping their hopes on political prostitutes and give these politicians and public servants tight marking. We’re in for long term suffering. |

Even northerners reading my post, I urge any northerner that says I am distorting history. To come at me, open ur thread and let’s talk. I came prepared. If anybody asks the north what exactly is the offence of igbos, they will tell you Igbos killed sarduana Ahmadu bello and tafawa balewa in 1966. When Ahmadu bello and Tafawa balewa used their positions to destabilise the west, and unjustly sentenced Ahmadu bello for their crimes, nobody ever says northerners destabilise the west. When these guys were the first set of people to bring instability to Nigeria, nobody says that either. But when a set of military officers acting in their own accord do sth, it’s Igbos. I am not in support of the killing but let’s look at that. Northerners for long have been attacking igbos unprovoked long before 1966 happened. In 1960 Nigeria got independence, everybody was happy a chance for a new start, let God bless us all and let’s build the nation of our dreams. Northerners unprovoked didnt stop their resentment. They went as far as their leaders going on international tv to be spreading ethnic bigotry. A premier of a region, going to say igbos are trying to dominate, his definition of igbo domination is, if a man comes to a place, he would work hard to succeed and try to rise up the ranks. Northerners judge for urself, is a man’s willingness to succeed in life a bad thing? Is this an excuse for resentment? Y were northern leaders doing that to their fellow countrymen unprovoked. January 1966 came, and the deaths happened, July 1966 came and you had your revenge. Y then did u people attack the civilian population that had nothing to do with it. You have had ur revenge, y then are u pushing to destroy or annihilate. There were retaliations in the east no doubts. Every single attempt for peace was destroyed by the north, as they continued to renegade agreements upon agreements. You renegade on ur agreement and same you still blames us for you not keeping to ur word. Same you still blame us for self preservation by declaring Biafra. Let us be sincere with ourselves. Then 50years later you would tell us we can’t become president because of what happened in 1967 that we declared Biafra, a problem That your own people caused technically. What is this called? |

Slytiger:No matter the number of times even your own people tell you the truth about that coup, you will refuse to accept the truth because it goes against your perceived bias. There is no how Igbos could have conceived the idea to conquer and rule over Nigeria through that coup when they were not even the majory; their population could never have withstood that post coup. Only pure madness. It is impossible and unfathomable. They will need either the backing of Britain and some other colonial powers at that time to pull that stunt. Even at that, they won't try it because of the larger Nigerian masses they will have to face. Except every Igbo man in every corner of the world was armed to face the repercussions. Still, they won't try it. But the truth about that coup is open for all to see. The crisis in the west remains the primary cause of that crisis. https://punchng.com/akintola-travelled-ambulances-protection-wild-wild-west-crisis-ayo-adebanjo/ |

Paythemback:You should be grateful that that coup happened. Your region was headed for destruction but for that coup that put a stop to that madness of operation weti e, the wild wild west. Akintola and Balewa was planning for more military actions against the supporters of Awolowo, but for the timely intervention of the coup which put a stop. Those coupists were against Balewa and Akintola plans and were in favour of Awolow. Read the below and be enlightened. https://punchng.com/akintola-travelled-ambulances-protection-wild-wild-west-crisis-ayo-adebanjo/ |
