Buharists cry to high heavens when soldiers are sentenced to death for aiding boko haram but their master wasted the lives of 40 soldiers without trial for allegedly plotting a coup. Worse still, he was still kicked out by a coup a year later after wasting those innocent lives. What can be more clueless than that? Modified: thank God and the moderators for front page.

@OP Oga, abeg na which coup plot be that? Mention the major actors of the coup. I'm a Nigerian and find it uncomfortable that a foreign newspaper is telling me a bout a major coup plot in recent time that I never read about in recent history of the country. So Can you please educate us more on this phantom coup that occurred under GMB reign...I want to learn please. By the way, what date was GMB overthrown from power again? 132 Likes 1 Share |

Babangida and Buhari should face the same tribunal or be summarily executed. Savages who truncated Civilian rule also executed others who tried to push them out. The worst is Buhari went further to ban every political gathering and decreed indefinite detention for whoever discusses the political future of Nigeria so long as he remained in power. Buhari wanted to be Idi'Amin of Nigeria. Sentiment apart, for Buhari to have led a regime which truncated Civilian rule should be disqualified from taking part in democratic elections having disbanded a newly constituted government. 44 Likes 2 Shares |

homerac7: bokohalal:The article was written on November 18 1984, Buhari was ovethrown in September 1985, less than one year. There was nothing like press in Nigeria during Buhari's time in power so you don't expect Nigeria newspapers to have the gist. See another article below PRESS FREEDOM WITHERS, REPORT SAYS AP Published: December 21, 1984 The institute, whose members include nearly 2,000 editors and publishers in 60 countries, said one of the most striking turnabouts in press freedom this year happened in Nigeria after the military coupwww.nytimes.com/1984/12/21/world/press-freedom-withers-report-says.html 27 Likes |

Fash20:Buhari apologists always tell us that Buhari wasn't involved in the 1983 coup, that lie has since been busted. They tell us that Buhari wasn't desperate to hang on to power that was why IBB overthrew him easily, but this killing of 40 soldiers for plotting a coup proves that he was indeed desperate to retain power. His cluelessness was what made IBB overthrow him easily. 20 Likes |

What a hypocritical chichidodo...he executed those for the same offence he committed against Shagari...or could all these be a rouse to eliminating percieved enemies,enterprising,brilliant and creative officers(soldier wey sabi too much book) on trumped up charges?? And since Buhari is known for bias and selective justice- Shagari's house arrest and Ekweume's 1000 year maximum kirrikirr sentence comes readily to mind let us leave that of Ibrahim Awwal ,Buhari's village man, loitering about Heathrow International with 14 million pounds in raw cash filled suitcases whilst Ambrose Alli,Sam Mbakwe even Ojukwu were left to rot and die in the gulag for another topic- could these doomed officers be chiefly consisting of South west/South east/ South south men and women?? Are we looking at ethnic/religious cleansing in the Nigerian Army well supervised by Buhari and his minions?? 25 Likes |

Some people hav turned themselves into by force Bible study Teachers by Digging Deep into the past, all in the name of "Buhari". I laughed at ur strenuous futile efforts. I will advise u to go dig deep in World military records in the 80s and see how it went before Democracy engulfed the World and CHANGE things. U plan a Coup and succeed, ur luck. U fail, ur death. To think of we not reasoning with our criticism is even one thing we should deal with before dealing with others. 5 Likes |
