1966 coup

Orchestrated by Easterners? Not too far from the truth.

helinues:
Both

Bad People, Bad Nation, the establishment even killed the woman for dearing to say Good People, Good Nation, read the signs, if you know, you know.

Graysons:
Blame Buhari!

So says a Southern Nigeria blind Almijiri?

phorget:
Blame the abokis, they've successfully ran the country to the ground. They owns Nigeria.

It is true, seems you phorgot your brain in the toilet?What part of Northern Nigeria is Olusegun Obasanjo, & Professor Ebele Goodluck Jonathan from? I always suspected they were Northerners from Nassarawa, & Gombe States respectively?

Stomoney:
Rubbish talk. The same insecurity Jonathan failed to find solutions to, made us votes for buhari but now he has failed woo fully. To me #YOUTHNEXT

Jonathan failed, Buhari failed, Democrazy has failed?, what does that tell you? That you are a harder animal to domesticate than initially thought, don’t blame others, take a look at the man in the mirror & blame him.

Wicked souls, a bad tree can never yield good fruits so the scripture exclaims, is it not fellow Nigerians, that kidnapped their Brothers, what do you want the service Chiefs & President to do, perform magic? Charity they say begins at home, The citizenry Of Nigeria needs reorientation.

ALMUSTAQIM:
I OBSERVED PDP MEMBERS ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT THE SITUATION IN KATSINA AND THE GENERAL INSECURITY IN NIGERIA.

I URGE THE FG TO BEAM INCREASED SEARCHLIGHT ON THE PDP TO FIND LASTING SOLUTION TO NIGERIA'S INSECURITY

GOD BLESS NIGERIA

Useless PDP, you are correct, pdp is like a child who has failed in school & wants it burnt down to have an excuse. That is why the Democrazy we practice in Nigeria today is about sabotage, same people will cross carpet tomorrow without any shame, and their blind Mumu followers will be ignorantly pointing fingers.

dollytino4real:
no service chiefs but serving thiefs

What could the service chiefs have done to domesticate you animals in Nigeria? Where in the world do you kidnap 500 people, and they can’t find you, where are the indigenous people?, where are the Local vigilantes & security outfits?Hypocrites blame yourselves & your useless Democrazy, a typical Failure always looking for someone else to blame.

Nbotee:
Thunder fire dem!!! Rubber stamped morons who have no balls how do dey expect the military to honour their invitation wen the person who appointed dem told dem to go to hell

Keep quiet ignoramous they will show up, this is what they ought to have done in the first place, instead of pretending to summon the Head Of State.

Patrioticman007:
That the political elite are cross carpeting like olosho for night club is a fact, what remains as lies is that they are doing it for their constituent interest.

What kind of slave mentality is this, what do you mean by political elite? These are everyday criminals who just decided to give their all in the game of politics and it favored them, don’t believe the hype, they are commoners just like you.

KaptainAfrika:
Nigerians: Politicians have no Ideology.

Politicians: Ideology - is that the party in power or opposition, so I can decamp accordingly.

Not the so called politicians, We Nigerians stand for nothing, we have no ideological foresight, the Senate is only a representation of Us, you cannot know more than your Master.

Mouth Gig:
POLITICIANS NA OLOSHO DEM









CLOWNS

Failed Democrazy, stop blaming President Buhari, blame the system, don’t hate the Player, hate the game.

somebody02:
State Governor 330
Federal Government 10
Escaped Student 520


Una well done o. The figures farrrr from each other to make any "sensible assumption"(government ain't credible enough to give right figure, we have to come to an assumption somehow).

Like the Chibok case, the abductors must have taken time to get this done...

Where were the local security & youths of the Area? How can strangers that don’t know their way around town, just come in abduct 100 people & walk away? You can’t even steal cattle like that. Charity they say begins at home, You people should start blaming yourselves first, what could the Federal Government in Abuja have done, when the state & Local government is playing ostrich, doesn’t the Governor collect security vote money every month from Abuja, what does he do with it?

Money & Prayer Blessed A Country Into World’s Capital Of Poverty

If you think money is everything, examine how it turned the most religious Country into the Poverty Capital of the world. When you get to a point when money is no longer your problem but how to spend it, you have a greater problem. Many people prefer the greater problem of how to spend money than not to have it. An older guy once advised a young man then; that the most embarrassing situation in life is not to have money when you need it.

Some Africans ran a country flowing with honey and wara into the ground because they had the greater problem of how to spend money they never created. They think their way to happiness is to live mightily at the expense of those that have a little or without basic needs. They became the only shining stars on the hill being bowed to and worshipped like gods. Ignoramus willing to deprive others of basic means of sustainability as long as they accumulate loot to the point of impoverishing their own countries.

Religion & Prayer, have replaced Work & Effort.

You dont actually need to pass any law before starting a vigilante group. There are many neigbourhood vigilante out there not backed by any law. It is not against the law to form a security watch group. However, if you intend to fund that vigilante group with state money, it has to have legal backing.

So if Nnamdi Kanu is funding the Eastern Security Network, he is not breaking the law. Anyone can be a vigilante

So you think those vigilantes don’t have a permit from the Police & State Government? You think vigilante groups operate like your con fraternity, although we know they are filled with cult members like yourself?

Ignorance of the law is not an excuse, you need more than just a license to set up any security whatever you want to call it, IPOB members like this dumbo are just naive Mumus.

Biafrannuke:
Afonja bloggers prayed for Uche mefor's exist to cause problem in Ipob but it didn't. In fact no body gave attention to him. Now, they want to do it themselves.

Mumu, you are not ashamed to claim that it is so called Afonjas that made two igbo Mumus fight over an illusion called biafra? Zombie.

ChoCho54:
Awolowo committed suicide fearing Igbo domination. You will follow suit soon.

Go & look at your 100 Naira note, & tell me who you see on it? My best advice leave Nigeria, you will die a poor person if you remain here, society will never bless you.

crestedaguiyi:
You must be a stupid descendant of the Benin people for you to abandon all their cultures and tradtions including language and dressing to practice that of the igbos.

And How has the igbo culture you are practicing put money in your empty pocket? How many igbo people patronize your only igbo business? A very poor mentality, can only lead to a poor financial outlook, no wonder you are lamenting?

Pierocash:
Anioma are Igbo's,and they don't dispute that. It is the ekwuerulem people that are really working hard to deceive themselves

Big deal, they could be Palestine, or Jew for all we care? We really don’t give a hoot, we are all Nigerians, that is all that matters.

PapaNwaeje:
Did you listen to MNK last broadcast, short and passed?

Of course, they will come but we will avenged; if you know you know

Zombie?

Mayng01:
He should shove a rifle in his behind and pulled the trigger, he is of no use to the society not to talk of being the president of a country

No use to a Failure that can’t help himself, you want the President to make you prosperous Almijiri? Does he can help, he will help, nobody said it would get to everyone at the same time, wait for your turn.

cpu2006:
He should please resign. Nigerians are tired of him. He is a disaster to this nation

Charity begins at home,?let the Governor of your state resign first, or as he performed up to your expectations?

DMerciful:
Shagari was not democratically elected in 1979 and re-elected 1983?

Shehu Shagari defeat Obafemi Awolowo, & Nnamdi Azikiwe in a General Election? Go and check who the Minister of Finance from 1971 to 1975 was, army arrangement, Useless selfish General Obasanjo from the south of Nigeria, refused to hand over to qualified people from the south, he chose a Northerner in the person of Alhaji Shehu Shagari, same thing he did with Yaradua, knew the man was not healthy, but still went ahead to select him & a clueless deputy Governor Ebele Jonathan?

DMerciful:
Only 2 military coup happened Nigeria!
[b]
The Nzeogwu 1996 coup that overthrew Balewa-Zik govt and Buhari coup that overthrew Shagari's govt.

These were democratically elected govts, others were illegitimate military govts so they weren't legal in the first place so deserved to be dislodged!

The January 1966 Coup

The January 1966 Nigeria military coup began on January 15th, 1966.

It started when some Nigerian soldiers led by Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu and Emmanuel Ifeajuna killed 22 persons.

The persons killed included the Prime Minister, several senior politicians, senior army officers, and their wives, and sentinels on protective duty.

The coup plotters attacked Ibadan, Kaduna and Lagos and blockaded the Niger and Benue River within 48 hours before the plotters were subdued.

Following the coup, Johnson Aguiyi Ironsi, the General Officer Commanding the Nigerian Army, took charge of the country.

This put democracy in Nigeria on hold.

The casualties of the coup included the country’s Prime Minister, Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Belewa, the Sardauna of Sokoto, Sir Ahmadu Bello, Samuel Akintola, the finance minister, the Premier of the Western Region, Festus Okotie-Eboh and many others.

This singular action destroyed The Nigeria foundation left by the fleeing British, igbos can be accused as the destructors Of Nigeria, they brought the irresponsible, young Military into power.

Was Shagari democratically elected? It was army arrangement, no agreement today, no agreement tomorrow.

Litmus:
Prominent citizens shouldn't be making incendiary ethnic statments publicly, not that they should continence such thoughts in the first place let alone make them privately even, such thinking and statments should be the dormain of uninformed masses.

It is worrying also that anyone in government harbours tribalistic notions. Of course we know that they do but the confident betrayal of the fact says a lot about the contempt they hold, or in this case held, for the notion of Nationhood under which we labor.

Nigeria was established on ethnicity, not Nationhood, and the ignorant citizens have fueled it, Gowon had a vision by setting up NYSC to harmonize nationhood, but when you listen to goat head crossed eyed so called elder statesman like falae say such rubbish, you cannot but wonder?, the youths today are worse than their parents, ethic bigotry is too much for a people that call themselves one nation.

The outside world knows Nigeria’s might, it’s people are ignorant & blind to the light, only when you leave the shores of Nigeria, you realize how great Nigeria could have really been. Democrazy has failed us.

uniquelyspecial:
Not all of us think so.

To some of us, APC and PDP are same and useless to to the welfare of Nigerians

A Democrazy when one can cross carpet without any consequences, is a jamboree, not a Democracy based on ideology, those so called elected representatives stand for nothing, other than standing during the national anthem, Useless Goats.

Omezif:
Apc will keep wining but 2023 Is their end.

Just the beginning of the demonization Of Osinbajo when he becomes President, APC will Rule Nigeria until the Military takes over again, this useless Democrazy has failed Nigeria.

Benbellamor:
Really
Jonathan a Christian laid foundation that affirms the terrorism principles of Haram...a Muslim concept and was able to make it popular only in north

The day you people are ready to.say the truth, that is the day you will be liberated
No peace for habitual Liars

Democrazy has failed, animals cannot govern themselves, that is why they are kept in a Zoo, this cut & paste system of Government is not working, in the past we would have said it was the Military, give us democracy, here you have your demonstration of craziness.

TheRareGem1:
This solar power Naija will benefit and boost economy in the rural areas, also create job and make ease of doing business flexible.

The rural dwellers have long gone been neglected especially provision of electricity due to the fact that they are not connected to the national grid but the narrative has changed because the Buhari Osinbajo administration will light up the rural areas with 5 million solar products. More to come.

Nigeria has all the best plans on paper, implementing is the problem, cut & paste is easy, putting the theory to work is everything.

Ghostmode2two:
I quite agree with you, the government is a reflection of the people and the society at large. One basic problem with us is the love for money and me first attitude. Until we purge ourselves of the love for money and the thought of me first, we will remain a disgrace to the world. Imagine that someone has the old post paid meter working fine, but the electricity people refuse to pick the reading, all they do is give estimated billing. I wish the electricity distribution company could make a platform where we can take photo shoot of the meter reading and send to them for billing that would help since the card meters are not coming.

I lived a score, in the diaspora U.K., United States, was excited to come back home, sorry to say Nigeria has no hope, this jargon we practice in Nigeria called Democrazy has destroyed the country to the ground, & will only destroy it more. welcome to Babylon, I don’t expect anything much from elected officials because a bad tree can never yield good fruits.

Liar, you are traveling around with a Nigerian passport & you hate Nigeria so much?, if you have already acquired your EEC book, or Yankee Book, why is your nation of origin still bothering you since you now have another nationality?
