RIP Murtala Mohammed. Kudos Obasanjo, these men gave their best during the civil war. Taught the flatheaded army a big lesson.

You are a waste of sperm! Your mother should have aborted u. Nonsense!

Do Know What Happened On Feb 13th 1976?

Friday the 13th, particularly when it occurs in February, is deemed a very unlucky day in Western superstition. For certain, a lot of people in the Europe and America have come to believe the day holds a lot of ill luck. Hollywood has even produced horror film franchises based on the theme. The superstition like many others, have been strengthened by individual claims of some ill event like a sack, divorce or accident happening to them either on a February 13th or a Friday the 13th. The word, friggatriskaidekaphobia, meaning, the fear of Friday the 13th derived its origins in Norse mythology.

Despite insufficient proof to support the ill-fated day, Friday, 13 February 1976 sticks out in Nigeria’s history as a day that brought a string of bad fortune to many in Nigeria. Nigeria’s Head of State was brutally assassinated on his way to his office on that fateful day. His unescorted Mercedes Benz car was riddled with bullets killing all four passengers including General Murtala Mohammed.

Luck also ran out on the perpetrators of the coup as it was botched by troops loyal to Mohammed’s regime. Buka Dimka, his sponsors and accomplices were summarily rounded up and shot in a firing squad weeks after the coup.

The most tragic tale from this Friday the 13th saga was the erroneous arrest and execution of one Col. A.D.S Wya for complicity in the coup. At the time of his arrest, Colonel Wya had been the Commander of the Corps of the Artillery and an accomplished wartime hero. His story is most unfortunate because his British wife had sought even the assistance of her home government to prove her husband’s innocence to no avail. In the end, Wya was executed. Col. Wya among a host of other officers and men were later exonerated from plotting and participating in the Dimka coup. But it was now too late. Having lost all hope and sensibility, Mrs. Wya drove into a train in Kaduna killing herself and her four children. Col. Way’s disconsolate younger brother equally committed suicide at the demise of his brother.

Indeed Friday, February 13th 1976 should never be forgotten in Nigeria

Col Wya was well served! He was such a tribalist and an ingrate. Rtd General Alexander Madiebo gave him his place in a high profile Artillery course in England just before the coup that overthrew Ironsi. Madiebo also secured accelerated promotion for him so he could cater for his British wife but he still organised an assassination squad for his loving and caring commander who had a miraculous escape. During the July 29th, 1966 coup his devilish exploits together with Major Abba Kyari where they massacred their fellow officers are well documented. So you see, he got paid back by the very evil North he served and worshipped!

Case closed!

Don't believe everything you see my brother. This is a movie scene out of Nollywood or Ghollywood. Don't think it's real. My take though.

Women are so wicked and selfish, I swear! See JAMB question!

I am a pure-blooded Afonja but i admit the igbo man is all that and even more. If given adequate support, the igbo man can single-handedly industrialize Nigeria and take us to that height in production we've really sought for decades on end.

Anyways, you forgot to add that the igbo man is also criminally minded & un-trustworthy. This vice still helps him succeed in business anyways.

Are the Chinese, Lebanese and Indians not also criminally minded? Does it take away their business ingenuity? What of Hausas, Yorubas, Edos? Are they saints? My guy pls concentrate on the business savvy nature of the Igbos and leave criminality out of it cos every tribe on this planet have criminals but not all are business savvy and enterprising like the Igbos, Jews, Chinese, Indians, Lebanese etc.

shamecurls:
You can lie to the dead!

The Igbos are the most intelligent group in the Black race worldwide. U can ask Google if you want and stop hating!

Honestly, if I'm this old man's wife or child, I'll strongly advise him to step down, the joke is getting too much on him!


Is power that intoxicating That he put preference on remaining in power over his health


Na wa!

My sister the crux of the matter is that he's pursuing a Northern Agenda. He's there for the North and no one else! That was why he was so desperate to get into power. My only anger is that we southerners don't understand what is going on in this country. We were used to unseat our own brother, GEJ. The North would never allow that happen to one of their own irrespective of whatever! Such a huge shame!

Your IQ is lower than that of a Pig! Next time if you don't have anything meaningful to post just read comments and pass by. Ewu Gambia!

The 1804 Jihad of Sheik Othman Dan Fodio really mortgaged the future of Northern Nigeria turning them into zombies and ethnoreligious bigots that are good for nothing in a modern, complex and competitive world!

The greatest mistake of the military in Nigeria was not to have scrapped the traditional rulership institution in Nigeria the Sokoto Caliphate inclusive. So far as the Jihad of Dan Fodio remains the fulcrum on which the social and political life of the North revolves, the North will continue being backward and non progressive & definitely be a cog in the wheel of Nigeria's march to greatness.

Ask a person to name the worst crime in living memory, and the Holocaust will probably be what they come up with.

Ask them to name the worst crime scene of the Holocaust, and Auschwitz is the natural answer.

Ask a person who knew that camp what the worst part of it was, and the killing center at Birkenau will be the answer.

Ask a survivor of Birkenau to name the most terrifying murderer in the whole complex, and they’ll give you the name of Dr. Josef Mengele.



Josef Mengele, born 16 March 1911 was a German officer and physician in Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II.

Mengele was a notorious member of the team of doctors responsible for the selection of victims to be killed in the gas chambers and for performing deadly human experiments on prisoners.

He joined the Nazi Party in 1937 and the SS in 1938.

Initially assigned as a battalion medical officer at the start of World War II, he transferred to the concentration camp service in early 1943 and was assigned to Auschwitz.

There he saw the opportunity to conduct genetic research on human subjects.

His subsequent experiments, focusing primarily on twins, dwarves,, and had no regard for the health or safety of the victims.

So called camp doctors, especially the notorious Josef Mengele, would torture Jewish children, Gypsy children and many others. "Patients" were put into pressure chambers, tested with drugs, castrated, frozen to death, and exposed to various other traumas.

If Murtala Muhammed or Yakubu Gowon had the chance they would have done worse than this to the Igbos during the 1966 Pogroms & the Civil war!

It's confirmed, except you take Chelsea, man city and spurs away from epl, arsenal can never win the league.

What of Man U & Liverpool? Arsenal is on a real long thing! Until they sack Arsene Wenger nothing for them!

vicade:
It amazing how these english guys can analyse matches and stuff yet they cant seem to get a coaching position in any team across the 6 tiers of english football. Reminds me of Food Critics who are experts at doing food reviews but cannot cook to save their lives.

All these english pundits are all talk. Shearer has failed as a coach with newcastle and so has neville too with valencia. I am sure if townsend tries to he will fail but he is a good analyst/critic but may not be a good coach/manager/cook.

In other news, David Luiz is the signing of the season and Arsenal wont loose today

Arsenal will surely lose! #bittertruth!

Cute but the lady looks older than the young man

Igbos will only look on from the side, nothing for you boy

Are you God? Why are you talking nonsense? How is this trash you posted related to the topic?

You are just a piece of despicable scum!

The CBN Governor's arguments hold no water! A lower MPR will trigger off a chain of events that would ultimately lead to economic recovery in the long run. Lowering interest rates would increase access to credit by businesses thereby jumpstarting the economy due to increased productivity. The money supply will also increase, there would be less pressure on the dollar thereby reducing the exchange rate and this in turn would check inflation as much of the inflation we are experiencing is cost push or induced based on the exchange rate because we basically import most of our needs! In the long term, we can attract back some departed foreign investors & possibly start exporting some industrial products especially to our fellow African countries. This will definitely lead to reflation of our economy and pulling us out of recession! If we combine these measures with increase in minimum wage, liberal forex policies as well as a non protectionist import/ export regime, I think the Nigerian economy would be permanently out of recession and heading for a boom by the end of this year. But the caveat is that all things must be equal. Things like; Oil production & Prices, very minimal militant activities in the Niger Delta etc. For now, Emefiele should resign cos he doesn't know his onions!

MAGU must be confirmed dole.


"Prof. Jubril Aminu was once the VC of University of Maiduguri.
During his tenure, there was an Aluta struggle and some students were rusticated.
Four of the rusticated students came to Gani Fawehinmi to challenge the action.
He fought the case to the Supreme Court and won.
The students went back to complete their studies.
Later, Gani was arrested over his anti-SAP conference and was flown to Maiduguri, then driven to Gashua. At the Lagos airport, not knowing where he was being taken to by the security men, Gani played a fast one - he told his captors that he wanted to use the toilet.
He got inside the toilet and quickly scribbled on a toilet paper - "To whoever uses this toilet, this is Gani Fawehinmi. I am being flown to an unknown destination by security men. Please, let the world know". He placed it in a conspicuous place, flushed the toilet as if he just used it and came out.
When they got to Maiduguri, they had a brief stop over at the SSS office, where a lady officer offered Gani a cup of coffee.
Gani was hooked on coffee like drug. But this time, the will power of Gani came on. He told the lady officer -"so you people have got information that l can't do without coffee. You think you can poison me? From, today, I stop taking coffee ". That was how he ended his addiction to coffee.
He was later moved to Gashua prison, in a most decrepit cell where he collapsed after some substances were sprayed in the cell.
He was rushed to the University of Maiduguri Teaching hospital. When he regained consciousness, he found a doctor examining him and he protested, asking the doctor not to touch him.
The doctor, not wanting the security men guarding him to hear, he whispered to Gani's ear - "Chief, you are in safe hands. Can't you recognise me? I am....., one of the medical students rusticated whom you fought for our reinstatement. I am now a doctor. So, relax. You are in safe hands".
And that was how Gani's life was saved - reaping from the good deeds he did earlier, which he had forgotten"- Richard Akinnola....

Moral of this real life story: Be good always and it shall come back to you!!!! Do have a blessed weekend.

Gani was truly a saint. I just love him through and through! If only Nigeria had many more like him, this country would have been a better place!

RIP Senior Advocate of the Masses!

She's sick. End of story!

But the oyibo looks very poor nah! Old and even dirty! Kai! Poverty na real bastard! I weep for this country, our mentality is so waaacckkk!

Spits on thread! ........Nonsense!

The trial of a man charged with the rape and murder of Nigerian sex worker in Aberdeen began on Monday, January 16.

According to BBC, Bala Chinda, 26, is accused of killing 36-year-old Jessica Nkechi McGraa at a union Terrace flat on Feb. 11, 2016.

At the High Court in Aberdeen, Mr Chinda was accused of inflicting blunt force trauma to her head and forced her on to a bed, held her down then raped her.

It is claimed Chinda stole two phones and a key from the deceased after the rape and murder. He is said to have committed this offence to destroy evidence in an attempt to defeat the ends of justice.

Advocate Depute Paul Kearney on Wednesday said there was overwhelming evidence against him.

However, defence counsel Ian Duguid said the prosecution had not proved guilt of rape and murder. His trial continued on Thursday, January 18th and is expected to last 10 days...

What else do you expect from an Afonja? Typical modafvcking ASSLICKERS! Smh

It's close to 200 million USD!

onedayatime:
Where these officers acting on behalf of the Igbo nation? Yes, they did.

So why call it an Igbo coup? It is called Igbo coup because all Igbos marked for death were never execute except for one man and no coup was stage in the east. Azikiwe was tipped about the coup.

It was not an Igbo coup because the the coupists had no mandate from the Igbo nation to conduct any coup. A lie, why? Eastern premier then welcome one of the coup plotters by helping him escaped to Ghana and also Ironsi did nothing to the coup plotters.

thank you and God bless you

Are you aware that Ironsi extradited Emmanuel Ifeajuna from Ghana after the overthrow of Kwame Nkrumah? Ironsi was not part of the Coup. He was probably tipped off by Yakubu Pam or Major John Obienu one of the coup plotters that declined at the eleventh hour. You people should stop vilifying Ironsi a beg!

logica:
FYI, Nzeogwu shot and killed Adegoke (one of the boys he commanded). These were young men following the orders of their superior who had lied to them that they were going on a field (training) exercise. What else can they possibly do but follow orders?

Major Sam Adegoke died in controversial circumstances in Ibadan. He was attached to the fourth battalion based in Ibadan. Nzeogwu was no where near him not to talk of killing him!

You guys should please stop distorting facts here!

Eledan:
Which tribe are you?

Why does his tribe matter to you? Useless bigot!

seunmsg:

The invading soldiers had come face-to-face with her husband, Lt Col Pam, led by a man very familiar to him, Major (HC) Humphrey Chukwuka, his second-in-command, and Deputy Adjutant General (DAG)1 whom Major Benjamin Adekunle who was DAG 2 had earlier warned him to beware of and Major Anuforo.


This is the height of treachery. Shame on Major Chukwuka and other treacherous murderers who betrayed the trust of their seniors during the needless Ibo coup of January, 1966.

Then what would you say of savages that killed wantonly and without giving their victims any form of respect in the July 29th, 1966 coup? At least Anuforo was courteous while he was firm about obeying orders. Besides, if Pam hadn't rushed to inform Ironsi and Maimalari the coup would have been a huge success in Lagos just as it was in Kaduna and from what I read about the coup, there would not have been any need to kill him, Kur Muhammed, the Prime minister, the finance minister and many others in Lagos. The coup had to kill them off when Ironsi started raising troops against them and with their lives on the line they just had to kill their captives so as to be on their toes! Most Nigerian youths don't read they just make wild comments out of tribal hate and prejudice against the Igbos any time politics is being discussed. Are books that expensive? Na wa ooh! You are just a fvcking tribal bigot! Shame on you!
