Oga sociologist, I asked you a simple question but you went dancing azonto. You claimed Igbo stopped the first coup, please tell who planned the first coup? (a) Yoruba (b) Hausa (c) Fulani (d) Hausa+Fulani+Igbo (e) Igbo (f) I don't know

SLIDEwaxie:
sure, a typical igbo is a fraud, and any unigbotic igbo gets my vote!

And I dnt consider any straight igbo as an igbo because a typical one is a con man!

You want a simple answer? The answer will disappoint you. Yorubas!

SamIkenna:


3 or 4 Igbos and 1 Yoruba, so it's none of the above.

You probably didn't know that there were a group of disaffected Nigerians of all stripes and shapes who were fed with the corruption and ineptitude of the time, who wished a person like Awolowo would do a better job as president or head of state. All of them were not Igbos.
Maybe also you have not heard of Lt. Col Adegboyega, who as a compatriot of Nzeogwu participated fully in planning and executing the first coup.
Everything was planned to benefit Awo. The soldiers drafted to kill Zik and Okpara simply failed, and it was not a general concensus of the Igbo nation that others be killed while their leader was spared, despite all the maligning theories you must have heard.

ProfCorruption:


No, I wasn't disappointed. I knew you were either a bigot or had a shallow knowledge of Nigeria's history. There was a reason I quoted about three of your comments.

ProfCorruption:


Why did you have to say all of them were not Igbo? If there is one Nigerian in a Brazilian team, how do we address them?
(a) Brazilian team (b) Nigerian Team (c) Brazilian-Nigerian team (d) I don't know

naijaking1:


I don't do childish name calling on my post, so I advise you to be more matured, and to the point at hand.
What Nigerian history is there to show that Igbos, all Igbos got together, agreed to plan a coup, executed the coup, and therefore liable for a general maltreatment as a result of the coup? You have no history to show that, all you have is assumption, suppositions, and allegations.

naijaking1:


Wrong analogy, again!

ProfCorruption:


Lol, my sociology teacher is upset.

Oga sociologist, you were the one that say Igbo stopped the first coup. Did they get together, plan it, then execute it? Tell us how they did it.

vanbonattel:
what these people failed to notice, was that the Igbos started to fight another civil war in this country immediately after the first one ended. They spread out into every state and secretly started buying up assets. Since Awolowo cornered all companies and sol d shares to Yorubas, igbos moved the other way and bought all available lands. Including yoruba land and lagos, which is a no mans land anyway.

the housas and yoruba won the civil war. But lost the ensuring peace

naijaking1:


Igbos stopped the first coup, because they saw it as wrong, proving the fact that not every Igbos never got together and agreed to plan the coup in the first place. Unfortunately, when the dust settled, some people came of hiding to try and change the narrative and common sense involved here.

Ilovenigeria:

Why then did you divert from the topic and started reading the book of lamentations?

Malawian:

this is asadike? the humour is very farmiliar.

Abagworo:


I've long been tired of arguing this Igbo thing with other Nigerians. Igbo is too large an ethnic group with sub-tribal divisions that disallow a general Igbo consensus. Igbos on the other hand seem to fuel this suicidal impression by the action of many Igbo leaders. An example is TAN, YEAA and Ohaneze meddling into politics. Even Ijaws till this day have never come out to claim a group action like Igbos do and the worst is that few people do this for money and not for Igbo interest.

naijaking1:


Whether Igbos do it for money or position is not really the issue. The issue is that there is no where in the World the action of a few men is used as a reason to punish every member of the tribe.

naijaking1:


Wrong analogy, again!
Maybe, not so wrong, because it shows the level of your understanding of this issue. So along your own line of thought: it's a Brazilian team! However, if the Brazilian team losses the game, you would not only kill every team member( as they used to do in ancient Mayan football game) you will start killing every Brazilian in your neighborhood (as they Hausa/Fulanis did in 1960s)

StBlack1:
Oh boy, see massive katayanings from TANoids.

"Yorubas caused the First coup...
Yorubas are great BUT have developmental setbacks......."

TANoids sure WILL NEVER dissapoint you with their ultra-obtuse way of reasoning.

ProfCorruption:


We are making progress, my sociologist lecturer. Is the part in blue an admission, your admission, that Igbo planned the first coup?

(a) If yes, who benefited from the altered political equation?

(b) If no, who planned the coup?

naijaking1:


Let's go back to your football analogy. So the Brazilians lost, the players are all killed. Now you go after the team owners, because some where down the line, you see them benefiting from the situation-that's ok too. If you still go after every Brazilian as a whole, then that's wrong, and the question about who 'planned' the game becomes totally irrelevant at this time. This is a level I hope you can comprehend, ok!

menabadoo:
yoruba people are great people with rich culture but You can hardly differentiate a yoruba city in the 70s from the way they are currently.

StBlack1:


Please can you explain to me why despite the ubiquitous looks of Yoruba cities, oblong-headed goons from the east leave their caves (called home to them) to these same cities?

ProfCorruption:


It seems you write a comment twice. First post, then update. Fine.

I am alarmed you mentioned Brazilian throughout this post without even putting Nigeria once. Is that an admission that in a team of about 12 people, an outlier of one, is inconsequential?
