Why is Mr. Bruce fixated on ethnic politics; with the Igbo as his reference point? Can't he talk about Shagari's death without bringing Igbo into it? Is the average Ijaw man better than the Igbo in Nigeria? What gives minions like Mr. Bruce, FFK and Fayose the impetus to act as spokesmen for Igbo renaissance?

Awolowo is responsible for ushering in a military coup that ousted shagari.

Reeling from his loss at the polls, Awolowo will deploy the Lagos-Ibadan presatitutes to demonize the Shagari civilian administration with so much negative propaganda - the likes of which was only repeated again by same SW presstitutes who were deployed by Tinubu to attack Jonathan's govt with the sleaziest form of propaganda that can only be described as slanderous. It was on this corruption propaganda that Buhari used to justify a coup just as they claimed Buhari will recover phantom looted funds that they claimed Jonathan stole.

The same Awo will justify the coup as a necessary evil thinking Buhari will conduct elections and hand over to him. Same thing Tinubu is repeating. Yorubas and Igbos are the ones that give these backward norrthners the audacity to demand they rule you. The Igbos are guilty of propping up northern political domination because it is them that are threatened when the north decides to unleash their greatest weapon - mob violence. If the Igbos relocated from the north, will the north unleash mob violence on themselves? And if they did, will any of us in the south care? As for the Yorubas, they give the north the legal backing by their constant twisting of logic, slander and lies on any southern leadership and their ability to constantly virtue signalling while being guilty of what they accuse you of.

And who failed to re engineer or revive the steel sector for 16 years? Who failed to build on whatever success or goodwill we enjoyed from the military? Who left gigantic projects to rot for several years?

POINT OF CORRECTION!

PMB WAS NOT THE ONE THAT OVERTHROW SHAGARI.

THE SENIOR ARMY GENERALS DID.

HE WAS NOT EVEN IN THE COUNTRY WHEN SHAGARI WAS OVERTHROWN .

HE HAD TO BE RECALLED FROM A TRAINING OVERSEAS TO COME AND LEAD THE NEW GOVERNMENT IN ORDER TO GIVE THE NEW GOVERNMENT CREDIBILITY!

The Buharists are unsure how to spin this.

Do they certify that it was right for Buhari to topple a democratically elected government rather than resigning from the military to join a political party?

If the answer is NO, is it right to deduce that Buhari committed treasonable felony?

If the answer is YES, is it right to deduce that Buhari's government should also be toppled by any disgruntled element?

Dr. Junaid is suffering from poor memory of History by saying that Buhari overthrown Late Sheu Shagari's government in 1983. Buhari was never part of the coup that terminated the NPN government of Shagari. Buhari became Head of State as a result of the junta inabilty to pick a leader among themselves perhaps because of the death of Brigadier Bako who was killed by National Guards protecting Shagari then. The faith the young soldiers had in Buhari's personality led to his selection to be the Head of State after they had succeeded with the coup. Buhari became Head of State as a matter of necessity, so Junaid should keep quiet for ever.
Junaid knows the truth but just trying to confused those who were too young then and the generality of our youths.

theoldpretender:
Buhari was wrong to overthrow the Shagari government.

Having said that, Shagari 's government was not good for our economy or country. Rampant corruption, poor economic policies, violent politics, and the Maitastine insurgency were all there.

In fact the economic issues Buhari faced in 1984 was due to Shagari 's mishandling of the economy. Failure to save for the rainy day until oil prices crashed in 1982, now that was a mistake.

But Buhari should not have plotted a coup. Better for him to resign from the army then, go into politics and win elected office. Same thing for Nzeogwu and company. Because of the decisions they made we lost our chances at developing a mature political system and in essence had to start from scratch in 1999.

So, yes, Buhari should not have overthrown Shagari govt. But Shagari's time in power was not Shangri-la either. The Second Republic political class ran our economy aground and fostered tribal and ethnic politics.Still...the beauty of democracy is that anyone can by hard work change things peacefully. Not by violent means
