Fejoku:. After reading some of your lengthy write up to answer your question and also you don't only need sense but education. Before the 1966 coup, Awolowo was already jailed by the Balewa government "because he stole public money and use it to build his prrdpers private estate and also, after loosing the presidential or head of govt election, he wanted Samuel Akintola to step down for his to become premier of the western region". Yorubas were effectively divided with internal destruction that was culminated into the popular wild wild west nomenclature of the region "funny what about Isaac boro and Niger Delta republic in the Eastern region". An intervention was desperately needed and there's no where such intervention could have come if not from one of the Big 3s. It's on record that people all over rejoiced when the news of the coup filtered through. 'It was only the igbos of the Eastern region that rejoiced and it is also on record that Nnuadi Azkiwe said "the gods of the Igbo have destiny the igbos to rule over Nigeria and all of Africa" and it is only the igbos of the southern nigeria that have the duty to intervene for the other region that makes up the southern Nigeria'. Igbo men who were visionary enough have always stuck out their heads to save others but what we always get in return is false accusations based on unfounded fear of Igbo domination "and the igbos are till this very day not visionary enough to achieve Biafra" The greedy nature of the igbos people have caused and still causing the problem of Nigeria even anioma and ikwere people don't want anything to do with the igbos you In the 60s the Eastern region was the 5th fastest growing economy in the world and they were in charge of key postion in Nigeria but because of greed still wanted more because they know the northern Nigeria was not educated enough. Me question to you Mr knowth why did the NCNC not form alliance with the AG knowing prior independent the northern Nigeria we're very scared of independent know fully well the southern Nigeria were very educated than them and they did everything possible to sabotage independent of Nigeria from the British In case you don't know southern Nigeria got her independent first before the northern Nigeria and collectively as Nigeria got independent in 1960 1 Like 2 Shares |

[s] Bonavi:[/s] You are just setting your people up for super dragging like tiger gen. If not for Igbos, the Fulanis won't even have the audacity to think Nigeria is their father's property, but see what Nnamdi Azikiwe did to all of us? If not for the fact that Ibadan warriors defeated the Fulanis at Oshogbo in the 19th century, they would probably have conquered the entire Southern hemisphere even before the oyinbos came. 2 Likes |

ScamHunter: Since the independence of Nigeria, the Igbos and the Fulanis have always been in bed together. Go check Nigeria's history. I think that's fitting because they are also the only two ethnic groups out of the over 300 ethnicities in Nigeria to use the word "dominate" with regards to other Nigerians. So, the Benue people can be excused for not wanting the Igbos there. |

obehi247:You don't history so shut up and learn. You claimed southern Nigeria got independence before the north so show us which year they got independence outside the 1960 we all know. That southern Nigeria was ready for independence in 1957 doesn't mean they actually got it. The fake history they taught in schools just to demonize Igbos has returned to hunt all those who sanctioned it. Igbos have been removed from national politics now fulanis are out to silence every other tribe who thought they were right to support fulanis. Where is Danjuma today? What about Gowon? Obasanjo will be forced to voice out before he died. Igbos have never waged any war of conquest against any tribe in recorded history but the fulanis have an entirely different story. Right from 1804 till date, they have been slaughtering indigenous tribes of Nigeria and taking over their lands. These are the set of people Nigerian tribes chose to pitch their tent with. The history is their for all. I'm glad that reality is facing everyone currently and the mistakes of the past can be corrected but everyone must be willing to pay the price in blood. May God Bless all freedom lovers. 5 Likes |

obehi247: Reading your comments, I came to two conclusions: 1) You're lying that you studied, or 2) You're not an intelligent student The reason I came to that conclusion is that any intelligent person who bothered to study the events of the 60s knows that Igbos (if we term it an Igbo coup) practically saved the Yoruba and the so-called Benue of today. Let me add that that salvation may be short-lived since that threat of Fulani invasion and conquest may just have been delayed by the Igbos for 60 years, since the same Fulani are back in full force in Benue and are presently camping in Yorubaland poised to accomplish what the so-called Igbo coup halted in the 60s. Ungrateful Nigerians always mock Igbo by standing truth on its head. For your information, that coup was led by the first Nigerian soldier who was trained in military intelligence, an Igbo man, Chukwuma Nzeogwu, who uncovered the same Fulani plot to enslave native tribes. At that time, Yoruba people had already been programmed by the same Fulani through their stooge, Akintola to kill themselves. There was practically an ongoing Yoruba civil war. In the middlebelt, the Fulani had already sent in troops, just the way they did in Imo and Igbo recently and were massacring young Tiv men. This genocide that was planned by Fulani against you lot was what Igbo officers and others saw and acted, but you all including the Yoruba and Tiv turned around to make Igbo the villains. Do you see why I said that finally, that Fulani conquest may still be realized, especially among the Yoruba and Tiv? In fact, it is just a step to be realized and trust Fulani tenacity. It will be realized. Tiv people, Yoruba and even Edo people joined Fulani controlled army and Hausa people in murdering thousands of Igbo civilians for the action of soldiers that were not even only Igbos. In case you're not aware. That coup had the support of all Nigerians and they welcomed it because they though it prevented a crisis. In fact, it is on record that the Nigerian Airforce planes flew in the North, in solidarity for the coup, but trust the British and their ability to manipulate foolish Africans. They teleguided the northerners and Yoruba through their Home Office and made Igbo the fall guys, why? They handed Nigeria over to Fulani and it seemed that their plan had been thwarted. The British only manipulated your fathers to hand power back to Fulani to continue their conquest, and today, 60 years later, they're in your forests in Yorubaland and have all but conquered the Tivs. Talk about nemesis? Is Igbo saving you again? Anyway, I heard IPOB is ready to save the Tivs again, but I do not see the sense in Nnamdi Kanu sending any Igbo man to Yoruba forests because you guys represent MOCKERY on legs. I personally believe Igbos willingness to help the Benue is to create a buffer for Igbo land, but you see Yoruba, you'll either fight for your land and die for freedom or go on exile. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

obehi247:That is being naive. The Army was still Federal controlled, and Ahmadu Bello was using it to destroy south west during operation wetie. Ahmadu Bello was pivoting to start another upheaval in the Eastern region. That was when those Army guys struck and cut off his head for good. Even with Regions, whoever is controlling the Army will still Lord it over the rest. Mind you, even the Police was federally controlled. At no point was the regions truly independent. |
