Ishilove, change this name
Lieutenant Mike Fyorshe

EXECUTED IN JANUARY 1986
Lieutenant Colonel Aker Mike Iyorshe- Benue

He was one of the most brilliant military officers Nigeria ever produced.

Major Daniel Bamidele – ONDO
The case of Bamidele is just pathetic. Bamidele knew of the 1983 coup to overthrow Shagari and reported to his GOC, General Muhammadu Buhari, he was promptly put in jail and was released after the coup, his GOC was made head of state.

Apparently, he got wind of the Vatsa plan and this time, he locked up.

Sad, sad, sad

Don't start that bullshit here.

When it comes to coup de' tat, the northerners and yorubas are always very weak and coward. They organize coup without thinking well. Unlike we the igbos that went an extra mile of carving out a whole country out of another. Thats why till date, we remain fearless as far as politics in Nigeria is concerned.

TonyeBarcanista:
Those days!

Please change the title to List of Failed Coup because those that successfully execute coup get rewarded and honored. In fact, we call them "Heroes"

I was thinking of the bloodless and very peaceful military intervention in Zimbabwe. What if it had gone awry? The collective weariness of the good people of Zimbabwe of Mugabe's Methuselah-esque misrule worked in their favour, but it could have easily gone south, like it did for our Nigerian brethren during the era of military intervention.

Those who ruled the nation were executed in their numbers, as you can see from the names and photos.
They realized too late that gambari slavery will take them nowhere.

That "thing" blew down the wall of Ikoyi Cemetery. It also destroyed a Peugeot J5 bus and several of them flattened a building.


Several smaller things made a hole in the wall of my friend's office (right where she usually sat) and killed several people.

Another "rapidly speaking thing" wreaked havoc on Ribadu Road later in the evening.

In fact, it was like I was in the middle of a triangle of them (an Air Force officer joked that they were speaking to themselves).
