Posterity70: Did the bible also teach that people frim the same ethnic group as bloody coup plotters should suffer a pogrom? Like the ones Igbos suffered after Ironsi dem were killed. Till today, wicked, evil and satanic black monkeys in this fvckin $hithole still justify that pogrom, and history is intentionally omitted from the curriculums, to keep the masses dumb He who kills by the sword dies by it, FINE I dont see much problem with the "counter coup" in a way. But to kill innocent people on the street who had NOTHING to do with the messs that was going on in the political space is a crime that Nigeria continues to pay for with blood. 2 Likes |

JuanDeDios: After the murder, Ojukwu asked gowon to arrest ty danjuma to face law but he refused, that's how the war started. Ibos fought for revenge of aguiyi ironsi and fajuyi murder while Yoruba called Ibos fools. 3 Likes |

Godblesspmb: You got it all wrong. I read a book from Obasanjo back in the day about the coup and it was a case of Ironsi being miscalculating and thinking the military was not politically involved. His mistake was not having those soldiers executed for their coup. He was like Jonathan in a way trusting and naive about things going on around him. His stupidity is what placed Nigeria on this path. 4 Likes |

Aguiyi-Ironsi is a weak desk-clerk head of state whose mediocrity led to the civil war, his name and legacy (whatever that is) should be removed from the history of Nigeria! He deserves no accolades or even mentions. 2 Likes |

Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma who killed Ironsi would later become Chief of Army Staff. He retired from the Army in 1979 and went on to become Chairman of Nestle Nigeria. He was appointed Defence minister during the regime of Obasunjo and is today a billionaire Oil mogul. So Nigeria has been celebrating bastard since year immemorial. 2 Likes |

Posterity70: My brother belewa and sardauna was executed not by Ibos but by soldiers who think they want to put things right. after all the late Kaduna nzeogwu is from old bendel, likewise others. But that's not the cause of the war because they were brought to justice by aguiyi ironsi. But y did gowon fail to brought ty danjuma to justice 3 Likes |

IkonBee: Were they supposed to be just imprisoned, after killing the prime minister, premier of the north, and akintola. FYI dimka killed murtala, and he was sniffed out like a rabbit until he was caught in afikpo, and was executed along with all his allies and including a civilian .

JuanDeDios: Were the likes of TY Danjuma who plotted the counter coup even imprisoned? They lived,died and some still lives freemen. Most of the 1966 coup plotters died in prison or during the civil war. Ironsi promised that they would be pardoned and form part of his government as conditions for Nzeogwu's surrender of Northern Nigeria, he even had the air force as it was only in Northern Nigeria, he saved Nigeria from a civil war by surrendering because he would have won. 1 Like 1 Share |

JuanDeDios: Ask your father or an elder of the history OK. I think they will explain to u well. But let me educate u small. After the killing of belewa, northerners called it Ibo cue because they called Kaduna nzeogwu who superhead the cue Ibo. And also because Ibo took over as the head of state, they were not happy so they plan a counter cue. After the counter cue, Ojukwu been the governor of the eastern region ask for justice which they refused |
