Nigeria Coup D'etat: Be Careful Who You Trust by TheNiceGuy(m): 6:33pm On Sep 25, 2022

MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY: BE CAREFUL WHO YOU TRUST

Major Donatus Okafor, the officer commanding the Federal Guards was tasked with the assassination of Maimalari. Without Maimalari dead, they were doomed. They knew their actions were high treason which carried the death penalty. Therefore they had to be successful or die trying. Okafor then jumped into his vehicle driven by one of his soldiers and desperately searched around Thompson Avenue, Brown Street and Glover Road, even all the way to Bourdillon Road.

Maimalari who had been hiding and running was trying to make his way to the Federal Guards barracks in his pyjamas when he heard and saw the light of an oncoming vehicle. He ducked into the shrubs again thinking it was Okafor and his men. Instead, he undoubtedly recognised the red Mercedes Benz which belonged to his Chief-of-Staff and Brigade Major (BM), Major Emmanuel Arinze Ifeajuna.

It was not immediately clear to Maimalari that Ifeajuna was part of the mutineers. Instead, he saw Ifeajuna as his hope and dashed for him. Ifeajuna ordered his driver to stop and he got out of the car with Ezedigbo, both of them armed.

“Emma, thank God,” the Brigadier said with relief, “some of the boys have gone crazy. They just attacked me in my home. Do you have any knowledge of who they might be and which unit?” He said with a taint of confidence he just found at the sight of his Brigade Major.

“No sir,” Ifeajuna replied with disdain.

“Never mind, just get me to the barracks. I’m going to find those bastards and finish them in the morning,” Maimalari said as he started to walk towards the car.

Suddenly, he stopped short and caught the sight of the Prime Minister, seated in a draped fashion in the car, whose white clothing had made him conspicuous to the Brigadier.

Maimalari looked at Ifeajuna perplexedly. His throat dried up. He couldn’t find the right words. He knew he had walked into a trap. He had escaped Okafor and his men but found himself willingly in the tiger’s den.

“Say your last prayers, sir,” Ifeajuna broke the silence and cocked his gun. Maimalari just stared hard.

Without warning, the Major fired three shots from his gun at the Brigadier as one of the bullets ricocheted and hit Ezedigbo at the jugular. The young Lieutenant started bleeding profusely. The Brigadier’s heartbeat stopped and he fell. This did not deter Ifeajuna. He fired five more shots to affirm the Brigadier’s death. Once confirmed dead, his body was loaded into the 3-Ton truck with the tied Okotie-Eboh.

Ifeajuna, who still had the Prime Minister in his car, then proceeded to the Mess with Ezedigbo still bleeding without remedy.

Whatever happened yesterday was a lesson that we could say never again, or dwell in the past and let it drive us apart. I haven't known any Nation that haven't got it's own horror but we can move foward or further apart, all options are practicable.

The coup, the counter coup and the war was all tragic but I'm happy they happened, and it happened yesterday, it could have happened anyway, much better it happened in the past, I hope healing takes place

Yes it happened yesterday but lesson was learnt that nyamiri can not be trusted. Tafewa Belwa ,Sardauna, Maimalami and other northerner leaders trusted them but look at the result. They were all killed by nyamiri. Yeah lesson is learnt but the take away is that we can't trust nyamiri people.

Undiluted trash from a cowdung sniffing animal, have you Muslim savages in the North apologized for all the atrocities and killings of my Middle Belt Christian people in recent years in the hands of your fulani herdsmen brothers? all the Middle Belt officers whom IBB and his Northern Muslim junta killed after being wrongly accused and tried in a kangaroo court for participating in the Orkar coup, have you animals apologized to my people yet? why stop at the coup of 1966 alone? weren't there subsequent coups in Nigeria after the first coup that were executed by you Northerners?

Thank God Igbos are not weak minded people who will apologize for anything, they fought you pigs with pride and are still far better than you barbarians in every aspect of human imagination despite the effects of the war.

Tell that to that Uju woman and other Igbos that are always forming victims like say Igbos didn’t commit several atrocities..

Nigerias have moved on. But don’t expect Nigerians to kept quiet whenever Igbos brings out their fake victim mentality. History will always be history, nothing can change it. That coup was the beginning of everything that happened till civil war..

Igbos were also the first tribe in Nigeria to stop another tribe from seceding..

And even tho, Nigerians have moved on, if anybody ask the truth behind the civil war, we’ll tell it..

Nobody ever talked about the pre-independence senseless 1958 bloodshed and killings of Igbos by the northern power feudal lords in especially in Jos, Benue, Kano, Zaria and other anti-Igbos semestic agenda culminating in the unfortunate coup of Jan 15 1966.

For example the participation of Major Don Okafor (Then OC Brigade of Guards Dodan Barracks ) was due to his attempt to punished a junior northern NCO which then CO 2 Brigade-Late Brigadier Zakaria Mamailari didn't find acceptable due to ethnic sentiments.

Captain Ben Gbulie was piqued with the parochial sentiments the army has became under the NPC which the Commander 1 Bde Kaduna-Brigadier Samuel Ademulegun have left military ethics to join in the oppression of non hausa-fulanis in the army then in the 1950-60s.

The hausa-fulani were to later confirmed the fears of those concerned with their revolving musical chair of coup plotting when they dominated the politico-military landscape of this skewed nation since July 1966 till date(July 1966, July 1976, Dec 31 1983, August 27 1985 and Nov 17 1993 coups). Read Max Siollun books accounts of these even and get a balanced view.

All these things you are saying doesn't relate to Uju Anya's case, Nigerians have taken their pounds of flesh off Igbos, no one have questioned UK about their actions. Nobody even cares if you have moved on or not, you can hang yourself for all I care you have taken more than justice for whatever a few Igbo did in the past.

As for secession, if you want to stay in Nigeria you stay if you want to leave you live. You don't stay with one leg in one leg out, I'm a Zikist and I'm in support of the current presidential system, I don't feel like a victim at all, I know the regional/parliament government is gone for good, no apologies. Whatever happened have been paid for in full with enough blood, I'm happy that the war happened and I'm also happy that it is presidential system the type that works for our society of Republicans that we still practice

Playing the Biafra/civil war/Nzeogwu coup cards won't save your agbado master from the monumental defeat that is his portion come next year. Dimka is from somewhere, why is his coup not being used against his people

Every new day, they're here with a new Biafra-Nigeria war stories, just to stoke the fire of hate and division. They have nothing positive to campaign on, so they have latched on tribalism, hate and nepotism as their last cards. All in a bid to hand over the biggest black nation on earth to a vintage drug lord!

It is still same thing I'm saying no one really care who rules so far the unitary system that enables an Emaka to buy up no man's land, buy land in Kano, buy in Abuja exists, how have your ruling stopped terrorism and have you gained command and control of AlaIgbo?

We are virtually autonomous, we have 7 state capitals, we have 5 full states all ruled by Igbos, do you think Nigeria is Igbo property, when will Igala man rule, when will Ibibio man rule, stop crying for the Igbo man, I'm come from a different school of thought and AlaIgbo is under our control, yes we sit at home every Monday, don't that show you that this is an entirely different country inside a country, AlaIgbo is for Igbos, Nigeria is for everyone lol.

We enjoy government position as far as Lagos, Kano etc. Come to Enugu and see this is a different country entirely. The people are different the rules are different. Everything has a price, terrorism is endemic in Nigeris well we have our own indigenous terrorists, much better than foreign terrorists.

You say it's the turn of Nyammiri this time to rule Nigeria, PDP gave it to Atiku fulani, APC gave it to Tinubu Yoruba. The reason nobody trust you is due to your dubiousness.

The same script played out pre 2015. Nigerians latched on it, Igbo hate, and ended up with a dead beat president. Now,
it's he same script all over again. As if Igbos are the only Nigerians. The only way to sell your candidate is to incite hate on Igbos.
