Great and promising leader, but a victim of CIA and Cold War era.

His Pan-African speech at the OAU sealed his fate. But still the best leader that cesspit ever had.

Salute.

Na Delta-Igbo people dey use the pidgin "kukuma" now. Starting from Obiaruku, Obinumba,kwale, abbi, umutu, agbor,owa oyibu, ogwash/ogwachikwu, asaba, umunenede, and other I can't remember.


I go kukuma go to farm
I will kukuma slap ya face
I want to kukuma vote for Buhari
I know GEJ will kukuma loss the election
I know Seun will kukuma block me


All there words,phrases and sentence must contain the word "kukuma", if not, they aren't complete.



I have once asked a friend of mine on why on earth will they kukuma use the word "kukuma" when they communicate?

He answer was "I am kukuma use to the word" that's all I can kukuma say.


Oya Kukuma quote and like this.

My oldman worked with him at the state house and watched him got shot on that fateful day. Just 7months and he has almost all reasonable monuments named after him including the bridge linking the 2 divides of Nigeria The Murtala Mohammed Bridge. Some good things truly don't last.

On the contrary he was exactly like PMB. He also had a flagrant disregard for institutions and procedures. He simply got stuck with the hero worship which should have been given to his predecessor. Most of his so called achievements were aftereffects of his predecessor. The luckiest thing to happen to him was his death which turned him into a martyr. If he had lived he would have gone down as a dictator and human rights abuser.

Thanks bro. The war criminal was lucky to have been killed by Dimka. We have our dis functional civil service ( which used to be one of the best on the continent) to thank that rabid animal for.

Any time a national leader can't turn plans to results we should remember the butcher for gifting us this civil service.

your hatred for PMB is making You go bananas .... So Murtala Mohammed is now 'a good Northerner'? The same Murtala whom your biafran parents refer to as Buthcer Mohammed. The same Murtala who was the brain behind the July '66 counter coup that saw the massacre of several Igbos.

Two Battalions in Murtala's Division burnt down the Onitsha Market on the 12th Oct '67 in their first attempt at taking the town but according to you, Murtala is now a good Northerner just because you want to spite PMB. Shame


As far as your dumb brain is concern, everybody who doesn't like buhari is an igbo man. Oneday, the word Igbo will chock you . Poo-pie

The man who was leading the "Araba massacre" of Ndiigbo, but was quick to change the chant to " one Nigeria" the moment the Caucasian powers showed him the enormous wealth buried in the East, they( Arewa-Oduanistans) would forfeit, should they go on with their Araba( division/ secession) plans.

The dude saw no injustice in receiving weapons from the British to invade Biafra and deny the people freedom, he was driven by greed like all before and after him. But with the Biafrans out of the way, the greedy dude tasted the Eastern petrodollars and started thinking he could keep the whole share to himself by hiding behind sanctimonious African nationalist platitude to side step the Caucasians.

He forgot that without the Caucasians weapons, the Biafrans would have bombed him to stone age with Ogbunigwe.

His greed nailed him, he was quickly "handled" by the Caucasians, and a willing Yoruba agent was brought in to clean up his mess.


Murtala was a greedy murderer, who had no knowledge of how the world works. I would have loved to say that Karma got him, but that wouldn't be true, it was more of stupidity and greed that got him. If he bent to the powers that be, he would have been alive today, perhaps contesting for elections.

Are the mods not aware of how some of us insulted murtala Mohammed in the last thread about him because of his role in the Asaba massacre?
Is this senseless thread a ploy to play on our sensitivities?

[b]Only an ignoramus can love and evil man like Murtala Mohammed. You know why?


murtala Mohammed was a despicable man of the highest other. It is a personal disgrace to all well meaning Nigerians that such an evil man has his face on the national currency and has landmarks such as an international Airport named after him

The sins of murtala:

1) murtala Mohammed led a band of Northern military officers which included the current president Buhari,Danjuma,Babangida,Abacha,Jerry Useni, the late Yaradua senior amongst others in the counter coup of July 1966 were they killed Ironsi and massacred over 300 eastern officers.

2) murtala and his troops massacred over 700 civilian men, women and children who came to welcome him and his troops as they entered Asaba at start of the war

3) murtala despite sound advice and in a bid to increase his popularity led thousands of Nigerian Soldiers to their deaths as he tried to cross the river Niger into Onitsha on 3 separate attempts (The then Lt Oladipo Diya almost lost his life in one of those attempts). Subsequently, Mutala was recalled from the war and sent to London while his men lay dead under the River Niger.

4) murtala became the first Military officer in Nigeria who conducted a coup to sieze political power for him self when he kicked out Gowon. Even Nzeogwu had no interest in becoming president in his own coup. murtala then in one of the biggest acts of Military indiscipline then retired everyone who was above him in rank promoted him self from a one star Brigadier General to a full four star Genera in one go. murtala became the face of Northern military domination of Nigeria.

murtala then embarked on a mass purge of the civil service where he sacked over 11,000 workers nationwide which included some of the best and brightest.


murtala was a war criminal, a homicidal killer, a failed Soldier,a sociopath and national disgrace.[/b]
