Many of the pro Obi voices of igbo extraction were actually fierce critics of the man's governorship performance. Now, because he's in a contest with Nigerians from other tribes they claim he's the best.

Interestingly I voted Obi because of Tinubu's many foibles on the campaign trail, the bulabas and agbado comments and sincerely wished Obi would win. I started regretting my stance on the dry day of the elections. Obi was in the lead and igbos started chest beating, I couldn't believe it. Their usual expression of derision and disrespect were deployed in full force because they actually thought their tribesman would win. I felt stewpid, I genuinely fooolishly thought it was truly about competence and propriety over tribe but they brought me to a rude reality.

Never again.

The igbo philosophy is about selfish dominance, they do not understand that differences do not necessarily mean superiority or inferiority. They lack regard and readily disrespect those they perceive themselves better than, and that is the source of their problem in Nigeria.

They think they are superior and thus should be king over all other Nigerian tribes and cultures. As such they are frustrated when they are constantly spanked by yorubas and fulanis. That's why every 4 years they throw their hat in the ring of elections thinking their victory is assured only to get roundly defeated because of their wrong calculations and then the cry for Biafra till another election cycle comes around.

These people lack self awareness and eschew accountability and would rather blame other ones for their personal failings. They expect other tribes to worship them while they cast aspersions on these same tribes. Of course, it comes from a place of false superiority.

I could go on and on but I have things to do. They will wail till Jesus comes because they seem determined to not hav sense




glad you understand that, they only repainted 1966 coup with Peter obi but this time they called it political revolution and the youths was their tools then not young naive officers

Thank you for your post! Let me ask:
Were you born in 1966? When you there when they were planning the coup? More importantly how many IGBOS die during the coup? How many Yorubas die? How many Hausas die?
I advise you go back and trace history very well. You will see that 1966 January Coup had many Hausas soldiers as causalities and an Igbo became the Head of State It is therefore tagged a coup planned by the IGBOS against Hausas. Who became the president after the coup ? Agui Ironsi! In order to deface Igbos from the coup another person should have been made Head of State and be promoted immediately as they did for Abdusalam in 1999.
The Hausas in the military saw it all ,No wonder they struck back in July same year leading to the death of many IGBOS in the North and the take over of government.
Till today , regrettably the IGBOS are still paying back for the 1966 coup and the Biafra episode.
I am Yoruba .I love IGBOS and Hausas. However I always say for an Igbo to be the Nigerian president a lot of ground work must be done. It is not as easy as that. Consultation and realignment are needed.The trust in IGBOS must be rebuilt in the hearts of Hausas.
This is a bitter truth that my Igbo friends don't want to hear. Igbo presidency is a mirage for now!

So let me tell you what I think about the Like and Share button that we all like to use here at Nairaland Mr. mob member. My ratio over a long period of time is 9:1.

That is 90 to 10 percent. 90 is up and 10 is down. To be honest, I would be worried if it was 100 percent. So it's okay the way it is.

Overall, it means that in a forum that is visited by thousands of people from different ethnicities and backgrounds, 90 percent seem to agree with my point of view. That is huge, and they are so right.

The 10 percent of people who have reason to disagree are just as entitled to that point of view, and I welcome and respect their choice.

So you see, I am not consumed by your thoughts or the shenanigans of your little being.

Now run along and get a goddamn life while you're at it.

Tissues of blatant lies by shameless elements.

No one, i repeat, no one, has ever come out with such a list.

Of all those that have written books on thst coup, including some of the coupists themselves, none has ever acknowledged a list of this nature.

They are refered to as the 5 majors and ONLY Wale Ademoyega was Yoruba while the rest were Igbos and they made sure only notherners, Yoruba and Edo man were killed, no single igbo.
Matter of fact, they tipped off Azikiwe and Okpara and the former fled the country.

No amount of attempts to rewrite history can change or alter the truth.

. That means Hausas are fools for calling. it an Igbo coup?. Hausas are fools for killing IGBOS in counter coups? Hausas are fools for killing Agui Ironsi?. Hausas are fools for saying no to Igbo presidency?. Hausas are fools for misinterpreting the coup speech?Hausas are fools for development trust in Yorubas at the expense of the IGBOS?If you are wiser than the Hausas you cannot be as foolish as they are.
If it is not an Igbo coup as claimed by the North that lost her sons in the coup ,whose coup then?

Another person would not have been made Head Of State because in the military command is hierarchical and coincidentally Aguyi Ironsi was the highest-ranking military officer.

Nigerians need to read books like "Oil, Politics and Violence" by Max Sillioun and "Why We Struck" by Adewale Ademoyega, a Yoruba historian who was part of the coup plotters.

Those books changed my understanding of the coup. It was not an Igbo coup.

They don't really have to, they are free to vote whoever they like.
But one thing I know is that " eta Inu ati atenuje lo so won da be."
Unfortunately for them, Olorun ju eda lo.
I will divide them into two, those who believed that Tinubu needs to step down for Oshinbajo, because most of them are people without conscience.
The other half are ignorant ones who lacks analytical mind, " eni ma da aso fun ni, ti orun e, laa ko wo".
Tinubu is beyond their mental weakness, Atari ajanaku ki ise eru omode.
They voted against Tinubu in my hood, few who voted for Tinubu, were crying in silence, and they were like " ki ni baba yi se fun awon Ika wonyi bayi? ". and majority of them were mothers.
Let me shock you, when the idiots heard that Tinubu lost Lagos, they went to the nearest bar and started celebration.
They said baba oni pampers ti lule, and some of these mother's came to me, some were already crying, I told them Tinubu will win the North, and if this happens, he will win over all.
God bless the North, they kept their promise, and the rest is history.

"In your opinion"..
This is why I said read books to emancipate yourself from the lies. When a lie is told repeatedly, It starts to become true. The books I recommended you read are not ones written by Igbos. There's a reason I intentionally didn't mention Igbo literatures so it doesn't seem like the authors will write with bias.

Adewale Ademoyega is a Yoruba man. He was one of the coup plotters and from his account, the coup was supposed to be a revolutionary(socialist) coup, which would bring Obafemi Awolowo out of prison and make him President.

Sadly, the coup FAILED. They didn't finish their assignment due to poor planning. (This would be too long to start explaining).

But if they had successfully released Awo from Prison and made him president, would we now say it was a Yoruba coup?

I don't hate Obi if that's what you think. I am simply saying he does not deserve to be president of Nigeria and believe me I voted for him. I didn't want Tinubu to be president but he's there now and has impressed so far. Peter Obi on the other hand has unleashed a mob into the Nigerian political space and has relinquished a lot of goodwill he hitherto enjoyed. I guarantee you if another contest between the presidential candidates held today he would lose woefully that's how bad his social currency has depleted
Oga putting the blame of some sensless obidients on Obi is not nice at all, he did not unleash anything or anybody non of his action so far has encouraged any civil violence or mob-like action, the only idiots misrepresnting obidients are those giving him the 'Messiah' crown or those who think is a do or die affair, Obi is not a/the Messiah he is just by far the best candidate amongst the available options. Also I voted Obi too, but long before the elctions I predicted Tinubu to win, but what annoys me and many good Nigerians is not the result but the process. I lost all respect for Tinubu the so called political guru, if the only thing he could do was bully and bribe his way to power. Finally I totally disagree with on your last sentence, Not Tinubu or Atiku can defeat Obi today, if there is another chance. On the 27th of Feb my 15 yr old daughter said "Must they cheat?" imagine training children in a country where the number one citizen has all many of criminal history including teaching little children to 'steal and run with it' this is about posterity not politics all Tinubu supporters has to understand that!
