Ademoyega Was The Cordinator Of The 1966 Ibo Coup? by AkinEgba: 8:14pm On Sep 19, 2010
''Another group of soldiers was at that same time being led by a Major Donatus Okafor, to arrest or kill, if necessary, the country’s most senior Army officer, Major General Aguiyi Ironsi. This group failed to get the officer. The General was reportedly not found in his official residence. Neither was he to be found in his office.

The three groups and several others, were working in concert, coordinated by a Major Wale Ademoyega. The groups were communicating with and updating Ademoyega by radio. A few days earlier, Ademoyega himself had sent out a single message.

The Message said " Major Ademoyega will leave Lagos for a forty one days holiday and will arrive in Kaduna after fifty one days." It was a terse radio message, made seemingly so innocuous as to arouse no suspicions.

Indeed it went on the operations signaling radio of the Nigerian Army. Yet it was a call to mutiny by soldiers. It was actually a signal announcing the D-Day of Nigeria’s first military coup.

Major Wale Ademoyega, one of the three leaders of Nigeria’s first coup, sent from Lagos to their leader, Major Kaduna Nzeogwu, incidentally Nigeria’s first trained military intelligence officer announcing the readiness of Lagos for the coup.''

Was the cover up about Tafawa Balewa's cause of death a ploy to achieve a set end?

''The body of Tafawa Balewa I saw about 7pm on Friday January 21, 1966 was a fresh body'''. Segun Osoba, veteran journalist and governor of Ogun state who saw the body of the late prime minister.

Ademoyega was put in charge of strategic aspects like disrupting communication lines and taking over the police HQ. He also assisted Major Anuforo in leading Okotie-Eboh into the bush to be killed. Ademoyega and Anuoforo pushedOkotie-Eboh into the bush even though he was pleading and begging for his life. Anuforo then shot him.

bullshit, stupid Akin-Egba. What are you trying to do? Revise history as usual. Seems there is some guilt coming up from somewhere. Ademoyega was stupid and was used. He was not in charge of nothing. The Igbo soldiers were in charge of the coup. Stop your nonsense by trying to say Yoruba's did it. Stupid retard. Everyone knows the history of the coup and it is what it is. There is no need to start to raise up idiotic and nonsense allegations. If it was a Yoruba thing, more Yoruba's would have been involved. Does Ironsi sound Yoruba to you? Omo ale.

Coincidentally Ademoyega deliberately co-ordinated it so that all Igbo politicians escaped assasination and other regional leaders were killed.

Funny. What havent we heard about this coup, Some time back someone said Awolowo was the one coordinating the coup from Jail in Calabar and the coup plotters arrested Balewa to take him to Calabar to hand over to Awolowo.

Ridiculous the extent people would go to revise history

Baboon, go back to the zoo or be civil. Why do you have to insult the poster in such a manner. You simply agree or disagree than run your stinking mouth wide in the public. Some morons do not even create a thread but only to insult thread starters. Shameless maggot. Even the Ironsi you mentioned was not involved in the coup.

Ogbonge ignoramus. Please read Ademoyega's book Why We Struck. The book was titled why we struck and not why they struck.

Omo were bluetooth Katsumoto . You may not personally be in denial but ignorant brothers like Tewmuch and Dayokanu are. Yes we are all Yoruba but we must be seen to be upholding the truth. Whether you killed anyone or not, as long as you are among robbers caught with guns, you are part of the armed robbery.
Re: Ademoyega Was The Cordinator Of The 1966 Ibo Coup? by dayokanu(m): 4:04pm On Oct 11, 2010
So which truth has Tewmuch and Dayokanu denied?

It was Ademoyega who killed Sardauna

It was Awolowo who killed Okotie Eboh

It was Fajuyi who killed Balewa

It was Benjamin Adekunle who killed Akintola

It was Yorubas who declared Biafra and came to kill Igbos. It was Awolowo and Ademoyega who did everything

Are you now satisfied?

No you are not Yoruba; you are definitely Mekusxxx no matter how much you try to deny it.

Also, only a fool would think that Bluetooth and I are one and the same.

Not only are you definitely Bluetooth, you are also BKbabe. You use different methods and identities to convey your message. Your game is up with your hatred. I was born to love all peoples no matter their creed. Everyone knows that Ademoyega was pushing Okotie Eboh alongside Anuforo and Anuforo pulled the trigger at some point. The police report was clear about that. So the blood of Okotie Eboh is on the head of Anuforo and Ademoyega. I am Yoruba and if you do not like it, you know what to do: jump off the cliff. I have no frigging idea who mekusxxx is.Ok?

WRONG! The police report stated that:

The Minister was then forced to go into the bush, pushed along by Major Anuforo and Major Ademoyega and followed by 2/Lt Igweze and Sgt. Ndukaife to the spot where the bodies of the 4 senior officers had been deposited. Arriving there, without hesitation, Major Anuforo killed Okotie-Eboh with a short burst from his SMG.

So the blood of okotie Eboh is on the heads of all 4 accomplices!!! grin grin

And oh yeah, the Special Branch Police Report was very clear that too!!! grin grin

Ademoyega did not deny being part of the 5 Majors. Read his book, Why We Struck.

The grandiose denial of the fact that January 15, 1966 cut across the ethnic divide within Nigeria has degenerated to sorry state of who killed who. A person does not need to kill or own the responsibility of killing a targeted interest to become a leader or coordinator of a coup.

Whether Ademoyega killed a target or not, the fact remains Ademoyega was one of the architects of January 15, 1966 coup.

Yet people forgot it was Captain Waribor who shot Ahmadu Bello.
