Soyinka is not the only Yoruba son to stick out his neck for Ndigbo, did the great Col. Francis Fajuyi not pay the supreme sacrifice protecting our own son Gen. JTU Aguiyi-Ironsi? Hearing the collective scorn Radio Biafra pours on Yorubas would break the hearts of those Fajuyi left behind...

Lt. Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi was killed alongside Aguiyi Ironsi by T.Y Danjuma and his Northern coupists because of his role in the January 1966 coup. The ADC to Ironsi, Captain (Senator) Andrew Nwankwo, who was lucky to escape from the field of slaughter revealed what actually transpired on that fateful day.

Fajuyi was reported to have been very scared, and had been one of those marked down for elimination. By the time Major Akahan phoned Gowon in Lagos and received instructions to ensure that nothing happened to Ironsi, it was late. Even Major Akahan and Major Danjuma (then at Ibadan) had lost control over their boys.

That Fajuyi wanted to be killed while defending Ironsi was merely a deceit and foolery which can only be found in certain section of Nigeria. Fajuyi was even a principal target for the July 29, 1966 coup plotters.


HOW IRONSI, NWANKWO AND FAJUYI WERE CAPTURED BY T.Y DANJUMA

Policewoman:
This story was told by none other than the ADC to General Aguiyi Ironsi himself, Captain (Now Senator) Andrew Nwankwo. It shows how the Northerners murdered Lt. Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi and his host, Ironsi. It also shows that they lied to the Yoruba nation that Fajuyi was killed accidentally while defending Ironsi. His murder was covered up by the north in order not to make the west suspicious of their agenda. Read on.

How Ironsi was killed, by his ADC
By PETRUS OBI, Abakaliki
Monday, June 28, 2004

Senator Andrew Nwankwo from the Izzi clan in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, was a captain in the Nigeria Air Force before the January 1966 coup that made way for Major General J. T. U Aguiyi Ironsi to emerge as Head of State.
He became Ironsi’s Aide-De-Camp through the recommendation of Brigadier George Krubo who was then in-charge of the Air Force and subsequently supervised the late Head of State’s security.

Capt. Andrew Nwankwo (rtd) said he was to die with his boss, but for fate. He was present when both Ironsi and Fajuyi were shot dead.

Tracking the 61-year-old former ADC down in his one story building residence in Abakaliki was not as difficult as getting him to recall the events that led to the death of his master 38 years ago.
He would start by taking you down memory lane when he served as a courier to late Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, "I was manning the octopus-a helicopter that carries 105 artillery gun and six other machine guns.

"So when Ethiopia was at war with Somalia in 1964/65 we formed the defence group of the emperor, we also formed an attack force. When the emperor is going to the frontline to see what is happening, we ring him round to clear the way for him".
It was part of these that Ironsi saw and handed over his security to the young captain. "It was cool working with Ironsi, he understood everything about what I should do because he had commanded the UN forces in Congo, and that exposed him to the type of people he needed".

The coup
Recalling the events of that night, July 29, 1966, Nwankwo noted that they were in Ibadan, "we had a small detachment of 106 Artillery, Commanded by one Walbe from Plateau"
The Head of State had the previous day hosted traditional rulers from all parts of the country in the Ibadan Government House. "He wasn’t feeling quite well, he had a knee problem and had to go to bed early.

"Lieutenant Sanni Bello was the army ADC, and we were very close. So, we left that night to go and look out and came back late. Lt. Adamu who was the ADC to Fajuyi, Sanni Bello, Walbe and myself, we all slept together in one room that night".
"At about 4a.m the telephone rang, I picked it up and that was Adeola, the then commissioner of police, Ibadan he said he wanted to speak with Ironsi, I said I was the ADC, he said he wanted to speak with him because there was a coup and he gave me some names Orok and two others that had been killed in

Abeokuta.
"Immediately, I made a mental picture of it, and I knew that it was the northerners that were responsible. So, I handed the phone to Ironsi and they talked. I then alerted Adamu and Sanni Bello and said look, there is a coup and the trend is this way.

"Bello assured me that if it is his own people he will protect me, because, there was tension in the land such that we knew a coup was imminent. So, we agreed to protect each other depending on where it will be coming from. I later discovered that Walbe who was sleeping with us was part of the coup; he later became ADC to Gowon.

"Around 5:30 we heard gunfire, then Ironsi had called Col. Njoku to tell him about the coup. As Njoku was going out, he was short at, but he escaped with bullet wounds. It was Njoku, who was the commander of Lagos Garrison that alerted others outside the Government House, Ibadan.
"Fajuyi later sent me outside the government House to find out what was happening. I met Danjuma, who was then a major and he was my friend. He pretended he didn’t know what was happening, he was asking me, and I said I didn’t know. While I was trying to go back, one sergeant from Benue almost shot me, but Danjuma stopped him and spoke to him in Hausa. Danjuma later told me that he would like to see Ironsi, so that he could tell them what to do.

"It was then that Fajuyi came out to find out what was holding me, and there inside the Government House Danjuma ordered for his arrest and mine too. That was when I saw Walbe. Then Fajuyi asked me to take him to Ironsi so that they will obey him, that there should be only one person in charge. So, I took them to Ironsi, and major Newman, immediately he saw Ironsi, he seized his crocodile swagger stick, and then they started asking him about the January coup, he said he didn’t know about it that he only agreed to be Head of State so that he can restore confidence and normalcy. It was immediately they arrested Ironsi that they turned violent".

The road to the valley of death
They marched us down, Ironsi and myself, to where Fajuyi was. They used telephone cable to tie my hands behind and my legs, with a little space to walk. Same they did to Ironsi, but they removed his shirt, he wore only trousers, they also tied Fajuyi. Ironsi was in a Land Rover, Fajuyi in a mini bus and myself in another bus. They drove us towards Iwo Road, 10 km from Ibadan, there was a small forest were they stopped, marched us to the right hand side of the bush, Fajuyi was leading and as he tried to cross a small stream, he fell down, the soldiers were unruly, it appeared some of them had for the first time taken Indian hemp, so when he fell down some of them started beating him.

My escape
As Fajuyi fell down and they were beating him, Sanni Bello came to me and tapped me and said, we could do something now. It was providence, may be I was not destined to die. I took a few steps from them and jumped into a nearby ditch, all in a split of a second, Bello came and stood by the ditch and was shouting that I had escaped pointing at another direction. So the soldiers ran around that direction shooting into the bush, and when they felt they must have killed me, they shot Fajuyi and then Ironsi there, by the side of the stream. So Bello made sure that he was the last to leave the place.
The ADC, who was later elected senator in 1983 stated that the former Head of State could have escaped if not that he wanted to make sure that there was no bloodshed. He said if he sacrificed his life and prevented bloodshed in Nigeria, it’s better for him. Even his chaplain urged him to escape but he said No. Also many of his officers who were contacted instead of taking action ran away.
The ADC denied the prevailing story that Ironsi was tied to a Land Rover and dragged along the road. He maintained that he saw Ironsi and Fajuyi shot dead. "They shot him on the chest and it was a burst, so he would have died after the first shot".

The crocodile staff
It was a swagger stick, which he made after his name Aguiyi (crocodile). It was in the Congo, when he was commanding the United Nations Forces, the Indian troops were to land at the Lumumbashi Airport but the Cameroon gendarmes went and blocked the place with trucks, so that the Indian soldiers will not land, so, he used a Land Rover and with the stagger stick waved as they were shouting, he was eventually able to convince them to remove the trucks. Many attributed that feat to extraordinary powers in his swagger stick. But there was nothing in it, it was just a stick. Ironsi was not fetish; he was a devoted Catholic and attended mass every morning, even the day he was killed. ***** This Interview was culled from www.sunnewsonline.com

Every tribe in Nigeria will have much to gain from independence. Nigeria is a prison of tribes, which will have nothing to lose but exploitation, neglect, corruption, and oppression from the central government, and everything to gain in the breakup of Nigeria. There should be an independent country for each tribe that wants to be a sovereign entity: Igboland, Ijawland, Edoland, Yorubaland, Hausastan, Kanuristan, etc. We at Ghana will support each and every part of Nigeria that wants to break free!

igbo should start a political restructuring that will put her in the front national development, capacity building and empowerment, they should see Nigeria the way other sees it. We need Igbo Political strategist rescue the tribe. Jonathan was there, he did nothing we can be proud of.

Strange bedfellows, with irreconcilable value systems that are at best suitable for the individual selves, are not meant to be together! The 101 years of existence attest to that verdict!

Gozzzy:
The truth still remains that this agitation for secession can never stop, as long as the injustice and unnecesary hatred being metted out on Igbos, still persist. If we check it very well, the major people that are helping in boosting the economy of Nigeria, and saving Nigeria from irreversible economic armageddon, even in the face of massive lootings, are Igbos due to their extreme hard working and industrious natures, quote me anywhere... We at least, deserve to be appreciated, respected and deserve to be properly integrated into the Nigerian state, if not, the agitation for secession, will still not cease.

An ndigbo would have been the president of Nigeria for long if not the greed of the region first going back to history it was igbo that scuttled the fisrt democratic rule all because of greed and selfishness, secondly how will an ndigbo rule Nigeria when you people are sectionist your politics are regional politics, you embrace impunity just because of the envy of the north am sorry i don't hate ndigbo but the truth must be told because you people can not rule without embracing nationalism since 1999 your choice of leadership as always been sentimental the last election was an eye saw truly i will like to an ndigbo rule Nigeria but that can't happen with the way ndigbos are projecting their selves

[b]If you and your ethnic group are no disgrace for whatever you stand for you would never be so sheepish and lazy as to live on the few crumbs your slave masters throw at you while your slave masters continue to enslave, plunder and rape the commonwealth and resources to better their own region, religion and elite!

If you and your people are no disgrace to the unity of this conglomeration you would never collude with your slave masters in 1967-70 to commit genocide on the Anioma people.

If you and your tribesmen are no disgrace to humanity you would cry the loudest and wage campaign against all the falsehoods, propaganda, evils, injustices and mass murder still going unabated in the polity.

If you and your cohorts are no disgrace to yourselves you will never point accusing fingers on the Igbos for daring to stand against the injustice in the land.

If you and your kinsmen are no disgrace to the Black race you will never be angry and bitter at the Igbos for daring to seek self-determination.

If you and your folks are no disgrace you would have had this entity restructured within the last 45 years.

You mean Abacha, Obj, IBB, MKO Abiola, Danjuma, Abdulsalam, Tinubu, etc. that wrecked this country and brought her to the present miserable state are Igbos?

You should be totally ashamed of yourself for being a pathological liar!

Was it not mainly Igbo elites like Zik and Okpara that championed the Independence of Nigeria from the colonial masters when the North didn't want to?

How did Igbos scuttle the first republic when in fact they controlled virtually every sector in the country at then?

How did Igbos scuttle the first republic when immediately after the 1960 independence Yoruba land boiled with 'Operation Wetie' with great arson and mass murder till the Army boys struck in 1966?

How did Igbos scuttle the first republic when the members of the January 1966 coupists comprised the North, SS, SE and SW?

How did Igbos scuttle the first republic when the main coup ringleader is basically from SS?

Why didn't the July 1966 counter-coup plotters just wipe out the Eastern political class rather than butchering and killing innocent Eastern civilians on the streets in the North?

Why did Gowon, Awolowo, Ejoor, Adebayo, Mobolaji Johnson, Katsina, Wey and co renege on the accords agreed upon in Aburi, Ghana?

To your mischievous self:

The Boko Haram and their Northern sponsors and supporters bombing everywhere and labelling Nigera a terrorist country are not your problem?

The Northerners with their Southern stooges who have ruled Nigeria for over 40 years and plunged her into the current cesspit are not greedy and selfish?

The Fulani herdsmen who wield AK47 guns and continue to rap3 and massacre helpless women and children in the dead of the night because of ordinary cattle are no problem?

The Yorubas who criminally use the media to spread wicked lies and propaganda to heat up the polity are no problem?

How dare you lie that Igbos are greedy and selfish when:

Northerners in collusion with Yorubas robbed Nigeria blind, plundering the crude oil resource and owning virtually all the oil blocks.

North and their Southern stooges are sucking Niger-delta crude oil and degrading the environment.

Are Igbos the ones behind the inflating and selling of lands in Abuja and Lagos at exorbitant prices ranging from hundreds of millions to billions of Naira per plot?

Igbos have helped in building Lagos and Abuja amongst other states, and you dare state they are greedy and selfish.

If Igbos are the problem with Nigeria why would mischievous hypocrites like you become embittered that Igbos seek self-determination

If you and your lots are not the arrogant, selfish and greedy parasites why do you always weep and wail at the mention of Biafra as if your life sustenance is being is taken away?

You must be the greatest liar of the Century!

The Northerners and Yorubas have proven over the decades to have voted along tribal lines. But not so with the Igbos; at those times Igbos have voted for Northerners (Shagari, Yaradua), Yorubas (Abiola, Obj 2x) and Ijaw (GEJ) to enable them get the presidency even at the expense of Igbo men.
That's an indisputable fact!

FYI, IGBOS HATE NOBODY EXCEPT YOU ARE A SWORN ENEMY OF TRUTH, JUSTICE AND EQUITY!

IGBOS ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE PRESIDENCY OR POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS TO SURVIVE AND EXCEL!

These biafra agitators are not being realistic. Maybe they live in onitsha and enugu and think south south will join them. If you live in Rivers or akwa ibom, you will see that the igbos are not accepted. Do you know that an igbo man cannot buy a piece of land in omuku. An Ikwerre man will say he is not igbo. Even if the south south decides to join, do you think you will see their oil, they will control that and the igbos will begin to shout marginalization again.

I am an igbo, but I don't think biafra is the way, neither do I think that the Nigerians will close a blind eye and allow an igbo presidency, so we need to fight for it politically by making allies and not enemies.

Just Nigerian political fooling around.

Neither PMB (with his heavy northern accent) nor GEJ (with his heavy Ijaw accent) is Igbo.

Nzeogwu, the January 1966 coup leader was a Niger-deltan from Delta-Igbo. And the other ring members are Kpera (Northerner), Ademoyega (Westerner) and Anuforo (Easterner).

There's absolutely nothing wrong in seeking self-determination. You don't expect everyone to be so deluded as to continue feigning ignorance of the great evils and injustices in the land. 

Those who leave the substance to chase shadows are as culpable as those who have caused the sacrifice of millions of lives for the sake of false 'One Nigeria'. Channel your energy towards stopping the evils in the polity and the wanton killings of innocent people for no just cause. Strange bedfellows of irreconcilable value systems cannot continue to be together. 

You are free to pledge your allegiance to OduaArewanistan. It's a free world of choice wherein you have freedom of association. You don't expect every other person to tag along with you.

The Great Igbo Nation do not need the presidency or political posts to excel and survive.
Igbos have been far from political power and yet have achieved unrivaled success for themselves, but disgruntled and bile-filled fellows still have the guts to castigate Igbos for the unavoidable, impending doom at their doorsteps. 

Despite the pseudo-president Yorubas had in the person of Obj who more or less kowtowed to the whims and caprices of his slave masters, do the average Yoruba person have better welfare than the Igbo person? NO! The Great Igbo Nation prides itself as having the highest concentration of middle-class citizens while squalor and penury pervade the Yoruba enclave.

In terms of education and enlightenment, the SW has the highest record of illiteracy compared to other Southerners. Of what advantage is then the much taunted free education by Awolowo?


N.B: The essence of this information is mainly to expose the lies of the notorious history distortionists and wicked propagandists who insult and malign others continually with lies and falsehood, and shout and make much noise on every available media. This a tribe that is after all well known for being loose cannons. Uncouth, uncivilised and disrespectful set of people who made a career out of abuse and slurs.
The same treacheerous beings who precipitated the January 1966 coup and the 1967-70 civil war with their bloody 'Operation Wetie ' in the SW. They start trouble and heat up the polity only to run cowardly to hide in their evil Soka forest when the jungle matures.
Disciple of hate and propaganda, here are the members of Yoruba tribe that participated in the January 1966 coup:
(See Ben Gbulie: ‘Nigeria’s Five Majors.’).

*Adewale Ademoyega is the most prominent Yoruba participant in the coup, there were other Yoruba officers who were involved at the dangerous execution stage of the coup. One of them is:

*Second Lieutenant Olafimihan, an officer serving under Madiebo in Kaduna. He was sent by the plotters to gauge his commander’s loyalty. (See Madiebo pp.17-18).

*Another is Lieutenant (some books refer to him as a Captain) Fola Oyewole. He, like Ademoyega, went on to fight for Biafra and wrote a book on his coup and wartime experiences. The book’s title is ‘Reluctant Rebel.’

*There is also Captain Ganiyu Adeleke who became an instructor in the Biafran Infantry School. For confirmation, see the list of coup plotters detained by Ironsi’s regime in Ademoyega pp.106-108, and this quote from Nowa Omoigui’s online account: ‘Mid-Western Invasion of 1967’: ‘Captain Ganiyu Adeleke, who had taken part in both the January 15 coup and the Mid-Western invasion before becoming an instructor in the Biafran School of Infantry was released at a later date after his co-plotters had been freed.’ Omoigui’s work is significant because, though he exhibits a high level of professionalism in his research, he has no sympathy for the January 15 coup. If his facts corroborate Ademoyega’s they are worthy of attention.

Oga, i am pure Igbo and I do not like what or how people call for violence, I am not pro or anti niafra mind you...what i am against is bloosshed...if

Pesuzok:


Bros I am Igbo, I don't know why u don't want to believe. What I dont like is how my fellow igbos are going about this, insulting people that have different opinion. The hatred is too much and it's already affecting some Gibson that interact with other tribes

Mister, you are not being sincere. Who's insulting who?

Ever since you were born have you ever seen or heard anywhere Igbos are on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

For many decades now, is it the Igbos that have used the media to spread hate messages, lies, falsehoods and propaganda to heat up the polity?

Can you provide your write-ups where you ever condemned this campaign of calumny by a section of the media to continually tarnish the image of Igbos who have been far from power for about 50 years now?

What have you done to counter the hate messages been propagated in the mosques and the unconscionable, cold-hearted waste of human lives and reckless destruction of means of livelihoods in the North and the Middle-belt?

Are you not aware that a systematic ethnic cleansing goes on in the North?

So why should you take offence that a people peacefully seek self-determination?

Why don't you channel your rage to the Boko Haram onslaught in the North?

IGBOS HATE NOBODY EXCEPT YOU ARE A SWORN ENEMY OF TRUTH, JUSTICE AND EQUITY!

There's freedom of association and so you are ever free to pledge your allegiance to any group of your choice.

Stop your mischievous moves; it's not working!

Timbuktuo:


Seeing will be believing for me in this case. It would be interesting to see how you people expunge them from the ruling cadre then when you can't do that now. I would really like to see them capitulate.

all we can do is wait. I just hope u remember I told u so when it happens

Timbuktuo:


I had been to the east a couple of times before service. My mom is from Delta and we have family living in Enugu.

I have no idea how any tribe would do on their own. Like I said earlier, how good you'd be doing when you're independent would be visible by now. We'd be seeing glimpses at least. Since 1999, political office all of igboland has been held by igbos, hasn't it? Any non-igbo governor, or commissioner in any igbo state? Don't be lied to. Look at NDDC, the money in there is being stolen by the very Niger Deltans that wailed for such an institution to be established; money amounting to billions of dollars unaccounted for. The same thieves holding power in igboland now would still be the ones ruling over you guys.

You don't need secession, you need to hold your leaders to account and bring them to book. Where will you put the likes of Ekweremadu, or the Chris Ubas and their like? You think they'll give way to reasonable people who mean well for igboland? Haaahhahha. Wake up, mister. Who will sponsor the fight for Biafra? No be the billionaires among you? By the way, why are they so quiet o this Biafra ish? If they wanted it, they've have got it by now. The national cake is too sweet for them to go and be building a country from scratch. What will happen to investment and property owned outside your region?

You really think if all igbos left Lagos the state would die? At worst it would be a major inconvenience, as the vacuum left would need to be filled. But igbos hardly provide any crucial services that cannot be replaced in months. Where there's demand, supply is bound to respond. So, while the taxes would be short for a while, it would be back up eventually.

What you should concerned about is why these taxes aren't being paid in igboland?

Chief, I salute you.

I just love how you state your facts and opinion, without hate or anything.

Goodboiyy:

Hehehe. Thanks, boss. Na so e suppose be. A lot of progress is lost when we resort to mindless hate.

AsherStorm:


What gibberish are you talking?
Appreciated? SE and SS gets the lion share of the nation's revenue, what else?
Respected? Other regions shld become your slaves or what?

You people are so pathetic and insatiable

Do not join the SE's arguments or issues with the south-south's. The south east is not qualified to vocalise words about the south-south's issues.

Have you noticed that the Igbo nation never existed before the white man came? (Not that it even really exists now). Please it is indeed something of an insult.

Let them flaunder alone as they continue to do - searching for an identity outside of themselves and in haraunging others instead of looking inward, inside themselves, to re-evolve and define a constructive national Igbo identity
