New revelations have emerged suggesting that some of the loyalists of former President Goodluck wanted a military coup to prevent Muhammadu Buhari from assuming power in 2015.

After Jonathan had conceded the election to Buhari, it was suggested at one of the crisis meetings that the military should stage a coup — in which case neither Jonathan nor Buhari would be in power.

There were fears then that Buhari would launch a vendetta campaign against those who offended him during electioneering.

But the suggestion was shot down by an unnamed person who said it was too late in the day, pointing out that it would have been more plausible before the election was held at all.

All these are part of the many revelations in a new book titled: ‘On a Platter of Gold: How Jonathan Won and Lost Nigeria’, written by Bolaji Abdullahi.

The book will go on sale nationwide from November 30, 2017 after the launch.

In the advance copy, the author said everyone who heard the audio of Jonathan’s telephone conversation with Buhari breathed a sigh of relief that the president found it in himself to take the road that had been so less travelled on the continent of Africa.

“Many in President Jonathan’s circles were still convinced that he had moved too quickly to congratulate Buhari. As they saw it, he should have tarried a while and possibly consulted more.

"In spite of what had happened however, it was still possible to salvage something. Jonathan’s call had more or less shut the door on everything. However, so long as Buhari had not been sworn in, there would still be cracks that sheer grit and guile could blow wide open.

If they had tried it, the baboons (Goatluck and his gang of thieves) would have been soaked in their own blood just like late Lt. Col. Buka Suka Dimka and his fellow coupists.

Just because a coup was executed in Zimbabwe, this rudderless govt decided to use it to manufacture fresh propaganda to distract Nigerans from total security collapse in Northeast
