The Truth Behind General Aguiyi- Ironsi’s Crocodile Swagger Stick by Charlesdonald(m): 7:06am On Jul 07, 2015 |
The late Major-General Johnson Thomas Umunnakwe Aguiyi-Ironsi was Nigeria’s first military head of state and he ruled as the Supreme Military Commander from the 1st of January 1966 till the day he was murdered on the 29th of July 1966 by a group of soldiers who rebelled against his government. When Ironsi was alive, he was known for carrying a crocodile-shaped swagger stick around. http://naijarchives.com/the-truth-behind-general-aguiyi-ironsis-crocodile-swagger-stick/?utm_campaign=shareaholic&utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=socialnetwork 7 Likes 2 Shares

The man who killed Ironsi (General Theophilus Danjuma) is walking about today a free man. Will he ever answer for the murder of Ironsi? Never. That's Nigeria for you. Note: 'Agu-Iyi' in Igbo means Crocodile but it can also be usd to refare to any 'Large Lizard' such as the commodore Lizard. 25 Likes 2 Shares |

fowowe411: Don't talk like that. In civilised countries, if a person kills another person, be it in a military coup or not, be it 50 years ago or yesterday, even in self defence, there will be some sort of judicial enquiry into what happened. Even now in The Hague, second world war criminals are still answering for there crimes 70 years after that war ended. So don't try to cover the fact that because your country is backward, crimes should be forgotten. 103 Likes 7 Shares |

Aguiyi Ironsi, this thread made me remember you again. I feel you were just wasted. Meanwhile, you made a terrible mistake by not sentencing & enforcing the killing of Major Kaduna Nzeogwu & his over zealous January boys. If you v done that, TY Danjuma & his boys wouldn't v gone berserk. Meanwhile, I wonder why these Igbo e-warriors on Nairaland never remember TY Danjuma as man that started the official killings of their men in power. They only remember Awolowo & the theory of starving Igbos during the civil war. What moral justification do TY Danjuma v to lead rampaging northern military boys to go & kill Ironsi? Nigeria is a sick country where justice rarely prevail for a common man not to talk of military coup! TY Danjuma need to give accounts of why he & his boys killed Ironsi, Fajuyi & others in 1966. 28 Likes 1 Share |
