On this day 43 years prior, previous Nigerian military ruler Murtala Mohammad was killed in S Class Mercedes Benz. Murtala Mohammed was Nigeria’s previous military head of state. He progressed toward becoming president in July 30, 1975. Murtala Mohammed was murdered matured 37, alongside his Confidant (ADC), Lieutenant Akintunde Akinsehinwa in an unsuccessful overthrow endeavor driven by Lt. Col Buka Suka Dimka, when his vehicle was trapped in transit to his office at Dodan Encampment, Lagos by a gathering of warriors. source: http://carandautos.com/on-this-day-murtala-mohammed-was-shot-dead-in-his-mercedes-benz/ 11 Likes 4 Shares

Below is a text of the second speech which Colonel Dimka never got to read on the air waves: “Fellow Nigerians, This is Lt. Col. BS Dimka. I now explain why we the Young Revolutionaries of the Armed Forces have found it necessary to overthrow the six month old government of Murtala. On the 29th July 1975 the Government of General Gowon was overthrown. Some of the reasons given for the change were: a. Corruption b. Indecision c. Arrest and detention without trial d. Weakness on the part of the Head of State e. Maladministration in general and a host of other malpractice. Every honest Nigerian will agree with me that since the change over of government there has not been any physical development in the whole country generally. All we have is arbitrary dismissal of innocent Nigerians who have contributed in no less amount to the building of this great nation. A Professor was arrested, detained, dismissed and later taken to court on an article which every honest Nigerian will agree that all the points contained in that article were 100% truth. The sad point about it all is that those who initiated the retirement or dismissal exercise are the worst offenders. You will be informed about the ill-gotten wealth in my next announcement. The acting General Manager of the Nigerian Airways was invited to the Dodan Barracks and detained without trial. The people of this country have been living in a state of fear. The Armed Forces promotion exercise is still fresh in your minds. Whatever reasons they have for the promotion one can only say that they are ambitious. They in fact took over power to enrich themselves. We are convinced that some of the programmes announced for a return to civilian rule are made to favor a particular group. To mention only one. Maitama Sule is a politician. But has been appointed Chief of Commissioners for Complaints. This is to prepare him for the next political head at all cost. How many of you know that Maitama Sule is on a salary of N17,000 per annum? In view of what I have just said and a lot more which time will not permit me to mention, we the Young Revolutionaries have once again taken over the Government to save Murtala from total disgrace and prevent him from committing further blunders and totally collapsing the country before he runs away in the name of retirement to enjoy the huge fortune he got through bribe which he has now stored outside this country. I believe that charity should begin at home. Please stay by your radio for further announcements. We are all together.” 46 Likes 6 Shares |

Despite the fact it pains me to my marrow, Buhari can't lose. He has a fanatical support base in the north, a good electoral machinery in the south west and ultimately controls the rigging apparatus and is willing to do whatever it takes to remain in power. One way or the other, Buhari will remain president till 2023.#IamAtikulated 12 Likes 3 Shares |

I remembered primary school when we went on excursion to the museum where this car is kept. Being a very imaginative child, I pictured the whole scene as the guide told us the story of how Muritala was assassinated. 31 Likes 2 Shares |
