No . I disagree . The igbos are not together as a people with a collective push for common agenda . They have displayed more hate than any tribe in nigeria . Just because of a bias old man’s book there was a country , yorubas were maligned and constantly attacked verbally . Imagine all the vitriol that came out of the mouth of MNK about the yorubas . If we hated you , we won’t be living in harmony with you . Giving you appointments in Yoruba states , you own properties in the west . You do businesses in the west without the businesses attacked . Yet you guys think we hate you ? Igbos hate themselves and think other tribes hate them .

if the yoruba faced the issues the igbos faced during the war and post war, they will be worse than the igbos. The war against the igbos has not ended by the Nigerian state and the tribes (yoruba and igbo). Staying in yoruba land isn't much, we are everywhere in the world, even in sambisa forest ( go and confirm, I already did). Yorubas are in igbo villages today and ironically they speak igbo today, something we didn't think possible.

It doesn't change the narrative that a war is still being waged on an igbo man. It is unfair , it should stop and we should move forward as a nation. It is that same war being waged that fuels the agitation by the ill advised IPOB of today.

The war should end. It is your generation that can end the war.

MrBlock:


The 2 names I omitted are Major Adewale Ademoyega and Major Timothy Onwuatuegwu. They later joined in the plot but we're not the original consipators.

I'm not sure what you mean by "first victim". A large number of high ranking civilian and military personnel were killed majority of whom were Hausa and Yoruba.

After the coup, General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi took over power as the Head of State.

wrong. chukwuma and his gang were the front for the enablers of the coup. I can give you the entire names, but that will cause you to not sleep well.

There was a first victim, in every war, someone first dies, someone died first, who was he. What tribe was he, would he have died if it was a coup for igbo agenda ? The Times were different my bro, nationalist views had more weight than the tribal views held today. Alot of people were zikists, awolowo and ahmadu were tribal, if ahmadu had to go, why didn't awo also go. Use to tongue to count your teeth.

EponOjuku:


You can only lie to yourself and to those who lack knowledge of history.

Azikiwe was hinted about the coup and he ran out of Nigeria few hours before the coup.

If it was not an Igbo agenda, why did Ironsi refuse to try and execute the coup plotters?

Why did he move the coup plotters to Owerri? Was Owerri the Federal capital?

You are the one whose ignorance has exposed Igbos to ridicule on this thread.

Lol. Go and read the book by the yoruba Coup plotter. Your mother wasn't born during the war, so I advise you to read the book at least it tells some truths.

The coup plotters were not tried for a simple reason. Read that book and learn why. It was not an igbo coup. When you try the coup plotters, you will try their enablers whose names aren't mentioned here. The Nigeria you know today would not have existed if that was done. Ironsi knew that, the north fumed at that because it implicates people I won't mention here. Go and read sir. Or attend the classes.

EponOjuku:


You killed Akintola, Balewa, Ahmadu Bello and Okotie Eboh. You killed leaders of the West, North, Midwest but spared Eastern leaders. Azikiwe was spared, Nwafor Orizu was spared.

The buffon called Ironsi came on board and his actions confirmed the suspicions that it was an Igbo Coup. He refused to try the Coup plotters and instead moved them to Owerri for their protection. Who protects coup plotters for God's sake?
Not only that, he introduced the Unification decree.

Thank God history classes are back. Hopefully the next generation of Igbos won't be as daft as the current generation.

I am waiting for your response.

Bia, history is in the making today ,
The ibos are the number one enemy of Peter Obi political struggle today.
Should I remind your that Rev. Father Mbaka, Gov Dave Umahi, Orji Uzor Kalu, Zack Orji, and other anti Obis that are outspoken are ndigbos .

check the biafran war. It was fought on two sides. Against the Nigerian forces and against fellow igbos (saboteurs). It is the weakness of the igbo man. Everyone has their weaknesses. Yoruba people loathe ijebu men, even though they are yorubas. Its an inner quirk everyone has in their tribe, that is internal matter. That doesn't imply that the Nigerian state should continue the civil war against the igbos many years after it is presumed to have ended. It is callous, it is wicked and marginalising.

realestate99:

Come to Ibadan, let me teach you what your parents hid away from you about the civil war.
I hate grown men with victim mentality, it pisses my soul. Unfortunately your opening post on this thread is an indicator you are a person riddled with victim mentality.

About the civil war, I hope you learnt about the countless massacres by the Biafran Army on the minorities they suspect as " saboteurs", I know igbos won't talk more about that because it doesn't fit into their ideology of claiming victim.

I might misplace you in ibadan. On your second paragraph that is very true. It happened. It will be an eye opener for the biafran agitators who assume biafra was a utopia when it existed. It wasn't. It will never be based on the manner it is pursued. However it was never an igbo coup. Even after everything, why has the civil war refused to end, even for people like you that your mother wasn't born during the war.

EponOjuku:


They didn't kill Awo because he was in prison at that time. If he was out, they would have killed him.

The Igbo Coup plotters killed leaders from the North, West, Midwest but spared leaders from the East. They didn't kill Azikiwe and Nwafor Orizu.

They brought Ironsi to right wrongs, the fool started entrenching igbo supremacy. Why did he refuse to try the coup plotters? Why did he protect the coup plotters by moving them to Owerri?

But you now have ignorant people absolving Igbos of blame in the events leading to the war.

wrong. Awolowo could have been gotten if they wanted. They spared him for a reason I can't mention here. The same reason was why they spared azikiwe. However for the other person you mentioned. That was the biggest gaffe and why it was understandable the north felt a betrayal and igbo agenda in the coup. However there was a reason it happened
Go and research about it

ransomed:


It will interest you to note that history recorded it that. Top Biafran army officers were feeding fat and making business from food supplied while innocent people were famished and were exterminated by hunger caused by senior Biafra soldiers.
When rations were not forthcoming, soldiers became weak out of starvation, things began to fall apart and the center could no longer hold .
It is a treacherous omen for you to lead innocent people to war and abandoned them and flew away to Ivory Coast.
Who now betray his people between Awo and Odumegwu ?

fact. That is true. This will help the biafra agitators learn also why they lost the war and how fantastic a biafra that once was a nation, really played out against fellow igbos and minorities.

On who betrayed between awo and ojukwu it isn't a contest. Arguments can be made for both depending on context and who you ask.

princemartinsG:
But your igbo states hardly do any good aor set any progressive pace

Your have nothing and brings nothebut to jump on Yorubas great strides in attempt to form familiarity

Let all other states do well not only attaching your backward selves as leeches to lagos

get informed. We are not just in lagos, we are everywhere in the globe. Our natural way of life has made it so. Due to poor education, you classify people from other tribes as igbos when you see them in lagos.

Igbos have bad leaders at present, history doesn't need to teach that, however a region that faced an international onslaught of destruction with no rebuild will be undeveloped. Maybe that answers my questions on marginalisation and wickedness.

MrBlock:


The original conspirators of the coup were:

Major Emmanuel Ifeajuna
Major Donatus Okafor
Major Christian Anuforo
Major Humphrey Chukwuka
Captain Ogboona Oji
Major Kaduna Nzeogwu

now he said the original ?? Cmon complete the names joor. Be brave. While at it, please state the name of the first victim of the coup and his tribe.

You lots want to distort history as you have done to suit your narrative that it was an igbo coup.

EponOjuku:


You need the lessons more considering the fact that you are historically ignorant and you can't even trace your history.

Your Igbo brothers killed Balewa, Ahmadu Bello, Akintola but spared Zik. Your brother Ironsi came with the Unification decree to subsume leadership under him. He refused to try the Igbo Coup plotters and instead moved them to a prison in Igboland for their safety.

true he did that. There are unfortunate events that led to the bolded. Read up about it. Its all part of the history we all should learn. Awolowo was spared, but you point at zik. The person you should have asked why he wasn't killed (which was a big error in the coup), you didn't ask. Now this and many more are reasons you need the lessons.

How did ironsi who wasn't in Nigeria come back to head the army. He wasn't the only general at the time. Research the name of the second person, he was in Nigeria, why didn't he take over.

Read up the book why we struck, it is a good book by the yoruba coup plotter amongst them, you will understand why they struck and why ironsi didn't try them.

ransomed:



Very good directive and your Biafra governors are afraid to re-introduce it, but the same Yoruba people you hate so much have done the needful. Remember the true history did not record that Awolowo betrayed Biafra , the true history as recorded was that Nnamdi Azikiwe won election in Yoruba land, Awolowo won some and came second in Nigeria and Fulani man came third without clearcut majority . Awolowo had agreement with Zik to form an alliance but, it was disheartening to hear that Zik formed alliance with the party that took third position .
History also recorded that some of your overzealous brothers killed some prominent Northerners during first coupe de tat and forcefully took over governance.
History also told us how sir C . Ojukwu, the father of Colonel Odumegwu sponsored coups before he died .
We also read how ibos wanted to perpetually dominate governance and killing Hausa, Yoruba officers to favour your tribal jingoism alone.
True history is well documented and not, Awolowo cut food supply fabbles your dubious brothers made you to believe.
Thank you.

lagos is coming second sir. Anambra has directed this before lagos. Keep in touch with reality. Also your so called history are fables. A long line of fables. Maybe you should take time to read the book by the yoruba coup plotter about why we struck. Maybe that will.help to educate you more on why the coup happened, rather than the ramblings you are doing.

MrBlock:


Maybe you also need to a refresher course on the people that executed the Jan 15, 1966 coup, there you would find your answer as to why the Northerners are so weary of the Igbos and how the Yoruba's have always stayed neutral.

Oh really. Who executed the Jan 15 coup. Name them. Tell us their tribes. Maybe you can have your own history class here early.

EponOjuku:


Is it Yorubas and Northerners giving your parents kerosene to drink?
You lost the war, deal with it. No one sent you to look for trouble foolishly.
The war altered your psyche. You can't think straight without blaming others for your misfortune. If you don't stop, you will never develop.

look for trouble ? You really need these lessons. Ensure to attend it.

EdwardRandy:

Nwanne, what if the teacher is a Yoruba who would not want to teach the truth?

well at least those who learnt the right thing will teach them in peer interactions. The level of wickedness abound today will at least reduce to a minimum.

JustforMen:


I totally agree with you here!

thank you. The civil war should end. The weapons have stopped sounding in the ranges of hapless villagers, but the war rages on against the lives of every igbo person in Nigeria aided by the same Igbo saboteurs ( leaders) of war time.

realestate99:

Igbo and treachery are same, you have been slaves to the north for long, when Awolowo sought for southern unity, your cunny Azikwe went through the backdoor and started romance with the North, you need the lessons more my flat headed brother.

And about the war, only a fool goes to a war with the intent of still getting food from the enemy, your people have always been cursed with leaders that lack tact, just useless emotions, well I won't blame them seems the Igbo d.n.a generally lacks tact.

its a chance for igbos to also learn about the treachery of azikiwe, but also the negative role and betrayal awolowo played during the civil war. Maybe that will finally end the war being fought against the igbos.

On the war end. Read good books and understand why weapons were carried at the time to defend themselves. Attend the classes.

JustforMen:


As well as the deluded Igbos to understand that no fight is one sided and no country on earth will willing accept cessation.

And that there has never ever been good or victimless war.

That there are no real innocent parties in any war.

But more importantly, the history of Nigeria does start and end with the Nigerian civil war just because it did not augur well for one party to the war.
Thank you.

you are correct. However the war is still ongoing against the igbos. Its high time the war ended.

tamdun:

While Nigeria, especially South south region will hate igbos if history is introduced in Nigeria

they will be right to. At least when can know where to start from to appease them and they us. We also have issues against them from history.

SugarGirl44:


Shurup your dirty mouth.
You always claim victim.
Your leaders thought they were smart but didn't know all their nonsense policies would come back to hunt them.
Igbos are naturally too emotional and irrational.
Don't worry, you'll soon have biafra so we can rest.

ensure to attend the classes when it starts , maybe you will learn at thing or two about igbo leaders of time past.

Christistruth00:




It will help those Igbos to understand that 97% of Lagos was under Awolowo in the Western Region

exactly.

tabaralph:

Do you see how insanely you sounded, Ojukwu that brought the calamities upon your people was a saint right? Brainless asshole

ensure to attend the classes when it starts . So you learn about ojukwu

realestate99:

....when one is afflicted with victim mentality and unwanrranted chestbeating at the same time, then that person is damned.

ensure to attend the history classes when it starts. Learn about your ancestors and their treachery

Good. Teach the history of the Nigerian civil war. It will help those deluded yoruba and northerners to understand what happened in Nigerian history and how badly they have behaved ever since.

Would help to stop the unwarranted bias, hatred and marginalisation of ndi igbo and minorities.


The war of guns ended in 1970, yet they continue to wage civil wars of hate, marginalisation, humiliation, threats and wickedness against the igbos and minority tribes in Nigeria.

He can defect. Wike has shown himself to be a weak person. When he thought PDP will zone the ticket to south east, he went on an attack against Peter obi and succeeded in chasing him out of the party.

He now contested the primaries and the same politics he played against the south east, atiku and the North played it against him and he has been crying ever since.

He should leave the party and go into political oblivion. He should be aware anyway that, if Peter obi isn't the president next year, it will be atiku.

He will lose either way , he is a drowning man holding on to the last bits of his political life.

I don't wish him well. Cherrio

To the obidient movement,

The youths have found a voice in being obidient. The youths have found a platform for sounding their voices, the youths are ever ready to show their resolve in rescuing their nation. The youths chose Peter obi and not the other way round, his ideals, his moral capacity and his records are enviable, while resonating with the thought process of Nigerian youths.

To the youths , I greet you, I applaud you, this is a fight for your voices to be heard. The naysayers fight everyday to discourage you, they attack you with lies and accuse you of bullying. Don't be discouraged, you are only taking a political position in Nigeria's affairs.

However I have to tell you the vision for the obidient movement. The movement must go beyond the campaign and sensitization season, the movement must fight to the very end. The goal of enthroning the youth's choice to lead us will be achieved, however the job is not yet done. The naysayers and detractors are already planning on how to make the presidency of your choice a bad one. Through their terrorist activities. The intend to graduate from naysayers to terrorists, they will attack the land with media lies, sponsored attacks of terrorism, insider jobs with sponsored moles and many more evils they can muster. Be ready for such eventuality when your choice wins, be ready to defend your choice in office, he/she will have it rough at the beginning, but once the enemies of the nation see your continuing resolve to fight for a Nigeria of your vision, they will eventually back away and allow your choice to paddle Nigeria forward.

Even after your choice leaves office, the next generation of obidient youths must exercise their rights through the movement to pick the best Nigerian to lead the nation again. The right to pick who leads this nation must always be by the youths of that age. The youths of that age will always be the decision makers on who would pilot the affairs of the nation. Only the competent and morally just of candidates will qualify. Great men and women from all parts of Nigeria, will have a chance to pitch to the obident nigerian youths, they will sell their ideas and characters and the youths will vote to make their choice president and other elective posts. The naysayers will see your success and join your ranks and Nigeria will become great again.

Don't be scared of losing, be motivated in expressing your vision. To lose is part and parcel of elections, just as it is to win. The fear of losing should never be an encumbrance to stop you from expressing your voice and choice. The youths will always be the enlightened generation, the detribalized generation, the religiously fluid generation and it is on your efforts and your choices, that every new Nigeria will be built.

Ensure that this first journey , which will be a start of a life long journey is accomplished without violence, without tribal and religious hatred, without corruption and with our firm motto of "we no dey give shishi". God is our patron and he will ordain our choices everyday you fight for the good of Nigeria.

Be obidient and useful.
