PoliticsRe: There Was No Igbo Coup - Rufai Oseni by Eleph(m):
Purely an Igbo coup.
As usual, The manipulative IBB knows where to get his gullible support from.
Name the number of notable high profile Igbo leaders killed in comparison to those of other regions. Who eventually benefited from it, Aguyi Ironsi of course.

'Many people think that Nzeogwu was a tribalistic Igbo. The truth is that he was not. Major Emmanuel Ifeajuna, who tricked him into taking part in the coup (it was not Nzeogwu who planned the coup), was a stark, raving Igbo irredentist. But Nzeogwu was not.

Nzeogwu was a friend of Major Adewale Ademoyega, the only non-Igbo plotter among the putschists, although Ademoyega did not kill anyone during the coup.

Major Nzeogwu was fluent in English, Igbo, Hausa and Gwari. He was that intelligent. Nevertheless, he was a homicidal fellow who locked empathy. Today, we now know that such individuals are psychopaths.'

"From that moment, the "putsch" was infiltrated by outsiders to its supposed original intention, and it took on an unmistakably ethnic colouration." IBB

The January 15, 1966, coup began as a nationalistic coup and ended as a purely tribalistic coup.

The following persons planned the January 15, 1966 coup:

Major Emmanuel Ifeajuna-Igbo from Eastern Region.
Major Chukwuma Nzeogwu-Igbo from the Midwest Region.
Major Chris Anuforo-Igbo from Eastern Region.
Major Don Okafor-Igbo from Eastern Region.
Major Adewale Ademoyega-Yoruba from Western Region.

Of these people, only Major Adewale Ademoyega did not take part in the killings. Please find below the names and regions of the people they killed, and you decide whether or not the coup was one-sided.

1. Sir Ahmadu Bello-Fulani from Northern Region.
2. Sir Abubakar Tafawa-Balewa-Gere from Northern Region.
3. Samuel Ladokr Akintola-Yoruba from Western Region.
4. Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh-Itsekiri from the Midwest Region.
5. Hafsatu Bello (wife of Sir Ahmadu Bello)-Fulani from Northern Region.
6. Mrs Latifat Ademulegun (Brigadier Ademulegun's wife, who was eight months pregnant)-Yoruba from Western Region.
7. Brigadier Samuel Ademulegun-Yoruba from Western Region.
8. Brigadier Zakariya Maimalari-Kanuri from Northern Region.
9. Colonel Kur Mohammed-Kanuri from Northern Region.
10. Colonel Ralph Shodeinde-Yoruba from Western Region.
11. Lt. Colonel Abogo Lagerma-Marghi from Northern Region.
12. Lt. Colonel James Pam-Jos native from Northern Region.
13. Lt. Colonel Arthur Unegbe-Igbo from Eastern Region.
14. Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke-Yoruba from Western Region.
15. Police Constable Philip Lewande-Minority from Northern Region.
16. Police Corporal Akpan Anduka-Efik from Eastern Region.
17. Police Corporal Hagai Lai-Minority from Northern Region.
18. Police Corporal Yohana Garkawa-Minority from Northern Region.
19. Lance Corporal Musa Nimzo-Minirity from Northern Region.
20. Ahmed Pategi-Minority from Northern Region.
21. Zarumi Sardauna-Minority from Northern Region.

Captain Ganiyu Adeleke, Lieutenant Olafimihan and Oyewole, did not take part in the planning of the coup. They were simply officers under the command of some of the coupists who obeyed the orders given to them by their superiors. Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke refused such orders and was instantly shot and killed.

PoliticsRe: Punch Newspaper Offers Its Generator For Sale; Nigerians React by Eleph(m): 1:17pm On Feb 18, 2025
Adblg0610:
If It’s not an indication of huge improvement in the power supply, why have the Punch Newspapers not put other items, such as office furniture, official vehicles, office buildings, printing machines, etc, up for sale.
Truth be told, even in Ikeja, where I live, the use of generators is fast becoming a distant memory. I cannot recollect the last time I heard the sound of generators, except during the period of National grid’s collapse.
That area and its environ is not covered by Ikeja Electric but Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company, IBEDC.
