PoliticsRe: I Finally Found Out The Truth About The January 1966 Coup. by Difrent: 7:14pm On Jul 08, 2024
Coldie:
January 1966 coup took place that saw the deaths of prominent figures from all over Nigeria, Except the eastern region. All the coup plotters were southerners and majority were of Igbo extraction.

For decades I kept reading people make accusations and counter accusations of if it was an igbo coup or not. I decided to look deeper. My findings are as follows:

Many Nigerians don’t know this but at the time when Nigeria employed merit in alot of things, at a time when justice and fairness was the order of the day, at a time when Nigeria never spoil, when corruption was minimal, when we were able to be a prospering economy even without being an oil producing nation, Nigerians thrived but one stood out amongst all. The igbo man. This standing out brought envy, hatred and plots against the Igbos simply for just thriving in a fair system. I would explain as we go on.

The interior east was amongst the last places that education got to, northerners and westerners have been educated long before easterners. Northerners were educated in the Islamic way, whether it’s not the western or secular education, they already had the culture of learning, westerners were amongst the first to meet the British, education penetrated the west far before the east. But when education got to the east, the speed it was embraced was so much that westerners that originally were educated earlier, had to declare free education to catch up, it reached the extent that during the progroms in the north, how they identify an igbo man is speaking English. As a result of this education, it gave igbos an edge in an impartial and fair world run by the British. Many people don’t know this but before 1967 igbos/Easterners used to make up 60% of the army. This was because entry into the army in the past required that u have a certain level of education, and igbos had it in abundance then. Igbos not just made up majority in the army, Igbos held high offices in the army.

Naturally if you guys are a majority in the army and hold the major posts in the army, any thing happening in the army would involve you. The 5majors were wrong in truncating our democracy and ushering in a military regime that would cause problems down the line, but that’s a story for another day. My major work here is to explain why it might look as an igbo coup but it wasn’t intended to, they were right and they were wrong.

All the victims of the coups except the casualties like people whose wives were caught in the cross fire m, the victims smhw instigated their deaths. Though I wish it never happened.

Ahmadu bello, I support him on certain things and I am against many things he did, I support the norths stance on Nigeria not being ready for independence, I am against Ahmadu bello dividing Nigerians after independence, after independence Ahmadu bello did an interview, and he talked about igbo domination, in this interview: he says if there are 10labourers in a camp, and one is igbo, within a year the igbo man would try to emerge as head of the camp, he didn’t accuse the igbo man of trying to steal from the camp, how is an igbo man’s individual effort to succeed a bad thing according to him? This his remarks is part of what made him a target. The second one involves his participation in the western crisis. Here I would bring in Sir Akintola.

Sir Akintola was the premier of western region, at a time when they had their action group, while Obafemi swollen was of the opinion of extending the had of the west towards the rest of the south, Akintola was of the opinion that they extend it towards the north, during this period Akintola a power tussle between akintola abd swollen erupted and akintola ended up getting voted out of power. After he was removed from power him and his followers got violent and that was how the western crisis started. During this the federal government intervened, if u read up what I wrote above and even read up history, the antagonist here is Akintola, but what Tafawa balewa the then prime minister did was to arrest awolowo and charge him for treason, this is pure injustice. An election was done while awolowo was away and there was massive rigging, voters suppression and violence, the people that were seeing the people ontop do all those things while they followed orders were the military. And who make up majority of the military then “Igbos”. All these happened and Akintola was put back in power. This actions here was part of what I think made Akintola a target of the coup.

Sir Tafawa balewa, he was the prime minister the man at the top, tafawa balewa might be the man ontop but he was put there by Ahmadu bello, the votes that got him into power were from his npc party which was northern people party, which was the region Ahmadu bello ruled over. Tafawa balewa actions of declaring a state of emergency on the west over an isolated incident that happened only in Lagos which obafemi awolowo cried out against, his role in putting akintola back in power depute his atrocities and rigging of the western region elections, was what I think made him a target.

Sir festus Okotie eboh, back then the number one most attacked person on the media attacked by opposition [mainly the west] was festus eboh, reason is that he was the minister of finance and he was known for his extravagant lifestyle and had some corruption allegations against him, i think his name being the first poster boy for corruption was part of what made him a victim.

These above are the major victims of the 1966 coup. Everything I told you make ur personal research I can debate with anybody who thinks otherwise, make ur research and you would know they were guilty, only mistake those military officers made was taking laws into their hands.

The reason why there was no major igbo leader as victim.
Nnamdi azikiwe as at then was out of the country, Michael okpara then premier of the eastern region was not involved in the crisis. The crisis was a north/south west alliance push gone sour. So do you expect the young majors back then who thought they were fighting for Nigeria future, a future without tribalism and corruption, to just locate Sir Michael okpara and kill him for nothing just because they want the killing to be fair?

It has been said many times, it’s a fact, the coup plotters who survived said it many times, the original goal of their coup was to put Obafemi awolowo back in power, if this was an igbo agenda y would they go through such stress to put a non igbo into power? The major things those young military officers did back then was:
Taking matters into their hands, which was a big mistake, another mistake they did was killing, arresting the leaders should have been the last resort, but resorting to killing is what made things worst.

Say the truth?
I love this
Even though there are some inconsistencies
But a great analysis.
Though it's still unbelievable that majority igbo officers seek to put a yorubaman in position, but its quite possible.

I like the way you admitted mistakes and apportion blame , fair enough

But , it's still an igbo coup because as you yourself admit, no single igbo leader was killed , if you were not igbo, you will feel exactly how others feel

Trust me Awolowo would have been no different from tinubu

Maybe the economic index might have been better but he is same as tinubu they have same mindset

In fact Awolowo is worse... He is the originator of this infrastructure virus socialist virus that have suffocated Nigeria

Awolowo might be less corrupt than tinubu but he is no different

Awolowo is a believer of feel good projects
The useless cocoahouse is prime example
A project to brag about but has zero economic benefits

Cocoa house till take has generated enough money to break even
I know you wish it was your tribe that had all those firsts
First Radio/ 📺 station
First stadium
First university
First TALLEST BUILDING

if all these were achieved by Azikwe will you still badmouth them? Hell no you won't.

Na that Jealousy, envy , that feeling that this should be you is the main reason igbos don't like yorubas

But we no send una, we are far greater than you in every aspect of life , the earlier you accept that the better for you because this is just the beginning.

ibechris:
Attending the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) is a path to employment in the Nigerian Army or other branches of the Nigerian Armed Forces. Here are some key points to note ¹:
- The NDA is a military university that trains officer cadets for commissioning into the Nigerian Army, Navy, or Air Force.
- The five-year program includes four years of academic studies and one year of military training.
- Cadets who complete the program are awarded a bachelor's degree and commissioned as second lieutenants (or equivalent) in their respective services.
- Employment in the Nigerian Army or other branches of the Armed Forces is not automatic but is highly likely after completing the program.
- The NDA has a strong reputation, and its graduates are highly sought after in the military and other fields.

And igbos too will be silent if their son was president.

They look like they have given birth to a 100 kids while overworking building the pyramids of Egypt and jogging at the same time.

They really look wornout and unattractive. Then they tend to over use makeup and have a hair line that has recessed to half of their heads.
