Nwosu explained the Igbo could not have planned when they had Nnamdi Azikwe as Head of State and ceremonial President, President of Senate, Nwafor Orizu who became acting President, Chief Army staff , Aguiyi Ironsi, and the first Nigerian to be made permanent secretary.

“The five majors that planned the coup were fed with the direction the country was going due to corruption in the country and the crisis in the west.

In his words,”There have to be an excuse for attacking Igbo who were. setting up shops, buying land everywhere and building houses, and that is they termed it an Igbo coup.

“Ademoyega wrote in his book ‘why we struck’, he was a core member of the five majors, why don’t people read it?

He was in Biafra, it was not about Igbo coup, why should they plan a coup for against Azikwe their President, President of Senate, Nwafor Orizu who became acting President, and Chief Army staff , Aguyi Ironsi?https://elombah.com/how-gowon-buried-md-yusuf-report-about-the-1966-coup/
