This unintelligent clowns and fools wrecked Nigeria beyond repair with their useless coups. That is why the US made sure their military was subordinate to civil authorities to prevent any rubbish so called coup, so much so their uniform chief of Army, Navy and Airforce all have civilian secretaries of Army Navy and Airforce as their boss making them purely ceremonial positions. 4 Likes |

Noticed that majority of the thugs who planned the coup are northerners. They were the very first officers President Obasanjo got rid of upon becoming president. Majority of them also belong to the generation of coup plotters that ended the first republic and set this country back. It is difficult now to plot and execute a coup in Nigeria. Aso rock is a fortress, and we have so many radio and TV stations in Nigeria. Also, senior miliary rank is no longer dominated by the Northern military officers. 3 Likes |

Saturnalia: Pls ignored him he is a known nuisance here. Bro that is how they love praising mediocre. As you mentioned about Major Okar dumb Coup, my own people have these stupid and strange mentality by wanting you on their side to fight your own people but they are not ready to be on anyone side to fight their own people honestly this mentality making me go craze sometime. Imagine they want Vivour who could not speak a single Yoruba to become Lagos gpvetnor and still find a way to coined some Yoruba idiots into their ideology but in our own region(SE) we can never allow stranger to become ordinary market gateman takless of market leader. Same way they successfully coined Edo into the ideology but when Edo needed them it's then my people will remember Edo are witches. Pls ignore him bro. Let him go and read the article very well or he shoud keep quiet. 5 Likes |

Ikumapkayi:Mistake Shagari made in 1979 was not retiring this unintelligent clowns like Buhari, IBB and Abacha.

Till today, Ex- Head of State, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( rtd ) who later turned Civilian President of Nigeria is still pained deeply by the occurrences of the coup and the critical planners. BUHARI FEELS BETRAYED MOSTLY BY BABANGIDA. A MILITARY GENERAL THAT HE HAD BROUGHT CLOSE HIMSELF.[b] He is so bittered with General Ibrahim Babangida ( rtd ) the key planner of the military coup. Being a fulani man, Buhari is known to keep malice in his mindset and it seems the enemity that he has developed towards Ibrahim Babangida will live with him till death. 2 Likes |

He was a great leader however way you choose to paint it , the first leader I saw when my eyes opened to the world. Although I used to hear Idi Agbon and use to wonder what is beside the coconut. Those that use to make noise are seated now, let see how easy it is to manage a great nation ....The DMI use to be popular in those days, i have one of their officer living on my street then , went back decades later couldn't find the house... Use to open all the cars in the neighborhood then with his son with our special keys . |
