Yyeske:
Why not create another thread about other coups that followed? This is about the 1st coup in case you've forgotten.

Iamgrey5:
It was not particularly an Igbo coup because majority of the average Igbos on the street were not in on the conspiracy.

But It was designed in such a way that it favoured Igbo elites at the expense of the elites from other part of Nigeria. This is aspect no one can deny.

Iamgrey5:
This is mind blowing.



1966 maybe a coup led by majority Igbos officers but it is unfair to call it an Igbo coup.

igbodefender:
Of course, the 1966 coup was not an Igbo coup. The officers who planned it said they wanted to foist Awolowo The Great in power. But they should have retired and campaigned for Awolowo instead of trying to install him through coup.

they are free to issue but i will still fight to go there,e nor get how many doctor warnings i get about the dangers of eating egg,my people i will still eat egg's, travel warning ni travel warnings ko.

netflicks:
Atleast they have a working system that can be held responsible even though the lives can't be recovered but those who are responsible for the deadly act will not go unpunished...am just making a comparison to the killings in Nigeria where no arrest has been made.

netflicks:
No be yankee again? bet me before one week dey don catch the killers but in Nigeria killers and blood suckers dey flex anyhow..

Rosskiki:
My brother, I have personally lived in the US, and I was held up at gun point on two occasions, shot at once, and had my apartment door flattened by an intended gun-toting assassin, mad that I'd snatched his babe. Luckily I was out. All this in just a space of 3 years. Anybody who says Nigeria is dangerous while praising American 'safety' is just...deluded.

timesup234:
speak all the grammar you know, America is the most dangerous place on earth. The crime taking place in New York is more than the whole Africa continent. America has more people in prison than Africa and China combined together. Stop allowing western propaganda to fill your head with lies. In reality Somalia and Sudan are far better than America

Prompt reaction from a president that cares about his people.
Our own is looking for Protestants to catch on Monday, let them not block roads for his cows to pass

We are talking about the Yoruba nation here. Is the black scorpion the Yoruba nation? Or is Victor Banjobtye Yoruba nation?

Yoruba as a nation cannot fight for their sovereignty. They may have one or two commanders like Adekunle and Obasanjo but that's about it. But as a nation, Yorubas dont have the stuff required to rise up and fight.

It is Igbos that can rise up, declare their independence and sovereignty as Biafrans, take up arms and rally behind Ojukwu to fight for 3 years to keep that sovereignty

That is the stuff of fighters

That is something the Yoruba nation can never do in a thousand years, to fight and defend their sovereignty

But if it is to defend noise making, I can give them that one

The fellow you are talking to is a semi-illiterate who was just lucky to have a few MB of data given him.

gidgiddy:
In modern day Nigeria, Yorubas dont have the backbone to fight for their own independence nation like Igbos once fought for Biafra.

There are things that Yorubas are good at, rising up to fight Nigeria for their sovereignty like Ignos once did is beyond Yorubas.

They are simply not made of that stuff. That's why they keep saying that Ojukwu ran away, to divert attention from the fact that 0jukwu did what no Yoruba man can ever do. To rise up and declare the independence and sovereignty of his people and fight Nigeria for for 3 years to keep it is no small feat.

A Yoruba can never ever do it. But if it is noise making, it will a simple feat

OfficialAPCNig:
They are still blaming Ndi Igbo for their misfortune

BlackfireX:
People like gbenga grandson

BlackfireX:
So ondo state is not total Yoruba, no wonder someone said Ekiti and ondo are fake yorubas ...hmmmmm

gidgiddy:
No matter what you say, the Yoruba nation will never have the liver to fight Nigeria the way Igbo nation once did. But if it is noise making, I can give them that one

Deepfeel:
We igbo's don't even recognize the impact of yoruba's in that war like you people claim, soldiers from middle belt impacted more, stop claiming false glory we all know yoruba's are verbal fighters

Pattypatt:
Yorubas are cowards, babangida onces said" if a Yoruba man blows the trumpet of war, he will wake up and go back to sleep.

kettykin:
it is on record , Igbos fought a full Military full of northern soldiers, middle belt soldiers ,Yoruba soldiers with their foreign Collaborators, Britain , Soviet Union, Egyp, Arab World, Cameroon, Niger , Chad, Sudan, Ireland, East Germany etc for more than 30 Months inflicting very deadly injuries on Nigerian Military and their Soldiers, Igbos wiped out the second Division twice and destroyed 99% of the 3rd Marind Commndo . No other group or tribe no matter the audacity can venture into this no matter the provocation

gidgiddy:
As an Igbo man, I laugh when I hear Yorubas talk of war. A Yoruba man who has never fought the federal government will say that Ojukwu who fought for 3 years to free his people is a coward.

Somebody who has never fought is calling somebody who fought for 3 years a coward

Wonders shall never end

Yorubas dont have the backbone to fight like Igbos did, only good at making noise about fighting
