Why We Overthrew Muritala Mohammed - DIMKA 1976 by Nobody: 1:25pm On Dec 23, 2013 |
Dimka's speech indicates that he simply wanted to rid the govt of corrupt people of which Muritala and OBJ were ring leaders. However he wasn't successful as OBJ detached his closest friends (IBB and Theophilus Danjuma - as you must have seen in the famous chess game pics) to dislodge Dimka from the Radio Station. Hence there probably was no way IBB and Theophilus (northerners) would be part of that plot to kill muritala and still keep mute after so long. But let me say I am glad OBJ is going through this tough battle from his benefactors and Family members, becasue this OBJ is one hell of a wicked man...I would not forget how in 1976 he retired so many innocent people unjustly...so many bright high court judges .. he destroyed so many lives by not giving them any hearing, no opportunity to defend themselves...and OBJ's end will be worse than those he destroyed. AMEN! he hasn't seen anything. I would have loved to support GEJ on this battle against OBJ, but unfortunately, what we really need now is a NEW NIGERIA, not a battle of supremacy and corrupt men. Here are Dimka's speeches, one delivered, the other was about to be delivered when IBB broke in: February 13, 1976 was a black Friday that Nigerians were jolted by the news of the death of General Murtala Ramat Mohammed then Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. He was killed along with his Aide de Camp, Lt Akintunde Akinshehinwa on his way to work . Col Ibrahim Taiwo, the the military Governor of Kwara State. and a number of other officers were also killed in the botched coup. 1 Like |

Please, people with some rare knowledge of things that transpired in the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's in Nigeria should open up so that this rare knowledge of things that happened then will not die with them. Knowledge needs to be shared to down generations. |

So sad how the tragic coups of July 28-31st 1966 and Feb 14 1976 never became tagged northern coup but uprisings. |
