So Shagari operated from the barracks?



State House Marina was the residence of the head of state of Nigeria from colonial times until 1967.

On the eve of the civil war, General Gowon tasked Joe Garba and Murtala Muhammad with finding a new residence for the head of state, because he felt that Marina was not safe. (Major General Ironsi, who was head of state before Gowon, also felt that Marina was not safe, so he used to sleep in a naval gunboat at night).

Joe Garba and Murtala Muhammad selected State House, Ribadu Road, the residence of the Minister of Defence, as the new residence of the head of state. Parts of Ribadu Road were closed to the public, in order to extend the complex.

Note, State House Ribadu Road is not in Dodan Barracks. It is beside it. However, journalists started calling it Dodan Barracks and the name stuck.

The presidency was at State House Ribadu Road from 1967-1991. The vice president's office, the council chambers, etc where at Ribadu Road.

Meanwhile, Shagari was not even in Lagos when the coup occurred. Assignment for you: Where was Shagari?

President Shehu Aliyu Usman Shagari swearing in Mrs Elizabeth Evase as the new minister of state for education at the Council Chambers, State House Ribadu Road. Beside the president is the vice president, Dr Alex Ekuweme.


Another assignment for you. Where did Ekwueme live?

This is not from any book. This is my personal experience.

Two of the longest motorcade i've ever seen.

1) Pope John Paul came to Nigeria in 1982. On the last day of his visit, Shagari used the Ribadu Road gate on his way to the airport. However, his return to Dodan Barracks was unusual.

He used the Obalende Road gate on his way back and I guess he had guests with him, because that motorcade was one of the longest i've ever seen.


2) President Babangida was going to Sokoto for a state visit in 1989. The police and soldiers had closed off Awolowo Road since 7pm. Then at 10 o'clock I heard it. Sirens from Ribadu Road to Onikan. This went on from 10pm till around 11:15. There was a short break when the limo and state cars were going past, but the sirens resumed immediately after.

Another assignment for you. How many gates are at State House, Ribadu Road?

Another assignment. What did Sunday Adewusi put at Mopol 2, Keffi Street (behind state house and beside Dodan Barracks) for President Shagari. Those things are often rumoured (especially among civilians and other ranks) as being one of the reasons for the coup (although they are not really the reason for the coup).

When Buhari took over from Shagari he inherited a Nigeria Airways which was then the biggest airline in Africa and the middle east with 33 operational aircraft but under Buhari's poor leadership 15 months later the same airline would cut over a thousand jobs and was reduced to a 6 aircraft airline from where it never ever recovered ..

In 1984 many airlines folded up under the poor leadership of Buhari so I am not suprised.

many airlines
