Buhari was a northern soldier, remember?

beerfraud:
Yiibo people and bad wishes for the country

abuhusna1:
This is why you cant blame any president putting his sllies in strategic position. Imagine if the head if the army was Ibo, they would successful plot the coup

SmartPolician:
While I cannot endorse military rule whatsoever, let me be clear that the best infrastructure we had in this country was built by the military....from 3MB to the refineries. These politicians haven't been able to achieve anything significant for the country. They are just there to suppress and oppress.

ernieboy:
oga stop all these online rants, nothing will happen, a few peep wasted here and there as examples and the rest of your Yoruba leaders will flee abroad to go and be forming useless coalitions and speaking grammar. I don't pray for a coup, but know this if it ever happens(God forbid) nothing will happen.

CoronaVirusPro:
How can humans ever envisage of planning a coup against the demigod without him knowing before hand.

The problem with humans is that, they always fail to acknowledge the powers, reach dominance and political tentacles of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

It’s okay to be inspired by others that might have happened in Africa, but not okay when you fail to acknowledge the force you up against in your own case.

Alaigbo:
Nigerians are not ipob or you from the East. We know how much we fought for this democracy n not ready to lose it to your senseless hate.

We know how it cost MKO Abiola while you hero was taking up appointment from Abacha who killed them. History will never forget n we also will not.

WebKraft:
LOL... That's a very poor way to reason. You assume the military too won't be corrupt but theirs has always been worse, besides, those ones can decide to start picking anyone who says anything against them online and offline, freedom of speech, gone!

We've had coups happen in Nigeria before, in fact in the 70s and 80s it was the order of the day, so it's something that has been done and never yielded any result. The solution is for us to make sure we hold whoever is elected accountable. If they don't want to hear word, use social media, protest, votes and your voice to fight for yourself.

Any coup at this point will be the end of Nigeria. We either practice democracy or we go our way. The era of illegitimate northern rule through military coup is over.

Again, President Tinubu needs to fast track the reform of the military. The military must be decentralized with military equipment equally shared to the six regions. The era of over concentration of military weapons in the north must come to an end immediately.

Mrchippychappy:
Plot twist, the whole thing na wash and was created to suppress the opposition and protests, now any call against bad governance would be seen as an insurrection and would be labelled treasonous. Just watch

Why Military Coup Is Hard in Nigeria


I once asked a recently retired Major General in the Nigerian Army why coups no longer happen easily in Nigeria. He explained that things changed drastically after the attempted coup that nearly claimed the life of former military ruler, Ibrahim Babangida.


According to him, the military intelligence system was completely overhauled after that incident. It became so advanced, sophisticated, and deeply embedded across all security units that planning or executing a coup today is almost impossible without being detected early.


That’s why, since that time, Nigeria hasn’t witnessed a single successful coup.




He said Babangida called Abacha to save him that it was Abacha that saved him from the shame and what later happened was agreement between him and Abacha.


Say Babangida was under one underground road at Dodan Barracks Lagos that the Military already took over and Abacha sent thousands of troops from outside to come in when he sent save our soul to Abacha


After the coup, Babangida immediately took FCT to North where he feels safer .
Tinubu can run it to Lagos where he feels safer too.

God please may it come to pass in Jesus name amen. Nigerians are going through hell in Tinubu's administration

Laptop boys said it's Saharareporters fake news.

Now Premium Times is shedding more light.

yemmit90:
No, the situation is different now, the contemporary world is now all about alignment. The only reason military coup was popular then is because of foreign interest or influence.

Once there is no real interest/influence from a powerful blocs, the other sections of the country that have competitive advantages will be listen to by international community.

JoeEeL:
Happiest day in Iboland and for Ibos

RISQUE:
Will you stop this nonsense? No matter how bad the APC and the present government are, ousting them through assassinations is a no no. This is heartless from you.

grandstar:
The economy might swiftly collapse. there will be capital flight out of the country. The Naira might enter into free fall. To end a Southern presidency by Northern officers will be frowned upon by many in the South.

This isn't Niger, Mali or Burkina Faso.

Stop this ascription of overestimated political intelligence. Be thankful that it didn't happen. I am glad it didn't anyway. Military rule is a lawless system where a few individuals become the law and the supposed order.

Only those who probably were unborn or too young to understandably witness military administrations will think the uniform guys are better. If they took power, we won't be on this forum expressing divergent political opinions without fear of disappearing mysteriously.

No matter what, I will always pray against a military rule. Na small children dey think say military dictatorship na fun. Make una ask una papa how far that year. Many didn't know how incapacitated President Buhari felt as a civilian leader. Dude wished it was 1984 when he could act unilaterally, arbitrarily and ruthlessly. That's why he struggled to govern as a civilian leader. He saw being a civilian president as bound in shackles. Thus he grew aloof and let things run anyhow.

Military dictatorship doesn't belong in this age.
