Slow pace
Lack of unity in govt
Heaping blames on previous administration
Oppression of imaginary opposition
Inflation
Lack of direction from govt.

The same reasons since 1985

Do you know the fulanis always use the Christians to do their dirty jobs, they used this man dogonyaro and they used gowon as well and a man from benue as well. Col. Joseph Akaahan was appointed Chief of Army Staff and J.S. Tarka appointed as Federal Commissioner for Communications

This show of inclusiveness by the government at the centre towards the Tiv led the Tiv to supply the highest number of men to fight on the Nigerian side in the bitter civil war (1967–1970). It also led J.S. Tarka, the chief architect for the independence of Nigerian minorities, to join forces with the northern Fulani hegemony in forming the National Party of Nigeria (NPN).

In fact, the party was launched in Benue State. His alliance with the Fulani drew in the minorities of the North and South, which led to the election of a Fulani, Alhaji Shehu Shagari from Sokoto, as the First Executive President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

We the igbos know the fulanis too well, the Tiv man js tarka would be rolling in shame in his grave

That is the basic reason why they are still afraid and uncomfortable about the Igbos because they know the Igbos aren't tribalism but are won't to be perfectionist in their style of governance.

The depressing part is the realization that the same speech is applicable today.

Like I always say, Nigerians love to learn the hard way. I remain unfazed.

Joshua Dogonyaro, a former commander of the Economic Community of West African States Monitoring Group (ECOMOG), is dead. Dogonyaro, aged 80, died Thursday at the Jos University Teaching Hospital, Plateau state.

He will be remembered, among other things, as the officer who read the coup speech that ousted Muhammadu Buhari, then military head of state, and brought in Ibrahim Babangida on August 27, 1985.

Here is the full speech below.

The Nigerian public has been made to believe that the slow pace of action of the Federal Government headed by Major-General Muhammadu Buhari was due to the enormity of the problems left by the last civilian administration.


Same excuse his government is giving.

This letter is robust and it shows the present state of Nigeria under the chief Dullar-d in charge. This nepotic dullar-d has been destroying Naija from time immemorial. God will punish all the people that imposed this misfit over Nigerians.


Rip Dongoyaro. It really pains me I did not see this letter when u are alive

Nigeria desperately needs another Tall Boy (Dogonyaro) to save it from this dullard, who’s worse than his version of 1983.
coup can no longer work in Nigeria as the useless military has been compromised.. infact it's the quickest way to go our separate ways

Well, according to ipob pigs, death is a punishment from God for wrongdoing, the more reason they have been praying and fasting for God to punish Buhari with death because of his "atrocities".

So should we assume that God has punished Dogonyaro for his "atrocities"?
That assumption doesn't correlate when it comes to TALL BOY. He lived an accomplished life, 80 f*cking years!

You are a good blockhead as that Buhari. If you are not, you would know that he and his cronies overthrew a civilian government which was an armless government then. He dared not try this with a fellow military government.

Hmmm

You're right. However, are the people who championed his candidacy any better? Weren't they grown men in the early 1980s?

I was only a teenager at the time. Yet, I knew the manner of destruction, decay and decadence brought by that evil regime.

This is more like a thief who stole a pot of exotic soup, which was later rescued from him. Years later, you nominated and elected the same thief as the best candidate to watch over the same pot of soup.

What did you expect him to do with it?
