Dear David Samuel,

Thank you for your feedback. Are you aware that it was Major General Johnson Thomas Aguiyi-Ironsi who abrogated true federalism, where each region controlled their resources and only paid 25% tax to the central government, with the Unification Decree Number 34 of on May 24, 1966?

Are you aware that both the trio of the Northern, Western and Midwestern Regions rejected Decree Number 34? Only the Eastern Region accepted it. There were riots in other regions over Decree Number 34. Please research it.

And how can you say that other regions decided to eliminate one region? Are you aware of history at all?

I will now list the names of all those who took part in the January 15, 1966 coupe and their places of origin:

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

Now, I will list the names of those killed during the January 15, 1966 coup:

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 Midwest Region.
5. Hafsatu Bello (wife of Sir Ahmadu Bello)-Fulani from Northern Region.
6. Mrs Latifat Ademulegun (Brigadier Ademulegun's wife, who was 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.

In light of the above, perhaps you may want to revisit your claims. Others may find it insensitive and provocative.

Also, regarding being forced to stay in Nigeria, as some of our brothers said in their comments, that is not historically accurate.

The idea for a secession clause was mooted by Chief Obafemi Awolowo in 1954 during the Lagos Constitutional Conference, but Nnamdi Azikiwe rejected it and galvanised a majority of the conference attendees to kill the idea.

After this was rejected, Chief Awolowo again wrote to the then Governor General of Nigeria, who rejected the clause on the grounds that the majority, led by Nnamdi Azikiwe, were not in support of it.

It was because of Nnamdi Azikiwe that section 86 was inserted into our constitution with the proviso that if any region should secede, it would be an act of treason.

Nnamdi Azikiwe himself wrote about this in an essay, which was published by the New Nigerian Newspapers in 1975 and has since been republished by other papers and by Mr. Azikiwe himself.

Were it not for Azikiwe, Biafra would have had the legal right to secede.

David, it would be best if you purged yourself of these baseless allegations fed to you. This was one of the main failings of the Nigerian government. If you live in Europe, you will find that the history of the Second World War is always told every day on various TV stations, so people will be aware of what happened and will not repeat history.

It also ensures that the younger generation is not indoctrinated with lies that may radicalise them against their neighbours.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

AN ADDENDUM FROM SOMEONE ELSE:

😆....Biafrans will never take responsibility, but blame others.People that will claim yorubas/fulanis used lagos to underdevelope them and still claimed they developed lagos?..what an irony!

Some of them still don't know that Aguyi ironsi,kaduna Nzeogwu and Azikwe dragged them into this mess and not fulanis or yorubas??

Their son Aguyi Ironsi introduced unitary system to northerners, Northerners tasted it and the northerners beat them in the game.

Also,Azikwe was the one that fought tooth and nail to stop Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello insertions of secession clause,thinking they will continue dominating not knowing that the table will turn.

They will also never tell you how Ojukwu fought ADAKA BORO and imprisoned him for declaring NIGER DELTA Republic even before ojukwu thought of biafra but will demonize Yakubu gowon and Nigeria for stopping ojukwu as stipulated by NNAMDI AZIKWE constitution.

If not for the fun of it,should we still be arguing with a race that their elders,youth and children killed buhari inside their head and replaced it with jubril of Sudan?.If they could believe such a story,do you know how many rubbish that is inside their head?.

COMMENT FROM ME:

I.pob will not like this, because it is the truth.

Baba pls help us tell asiwaju to drop his 2023 ambition for osinbajo. BAT isn't fit enough to lead a '21st century economy like Nigeria to prosperity. PYO will make a better president than him; no doubt.

BBNaija star, Tacha has slammed President Buhari over his approach to the Coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria.

Tacha blasted the President for "addressing Nigerians via Twitter".

She also spoke against the lockdown across the country due to COVID-19.

In a video Tacha shared on her Instagram page, she said:

"The average Nigerian works on a daily basis and gets paid on a daily basis. We have a lot of Nigerians that do blue collar jobs. If they don't work in a day, they will not get money in a day and they will not eat in a day, yet we want to have a lockdown. What will people eat?"

"Conductors, mothers that go to the market to sell stuff, what will they eat? When you say people should lockdown and stay home, what will they eat, will they eat themselves? A lot of people depend on daily income. So when you say lockdown, you should also provide food for them. Hunger is deadlier that this virus"

Nigeria of 2015 is alot different from Nigeria of today. Things are more difficult and hard to get in this present time than 2015 upwards when things was easier and there was money everywhere during goodluck tenure i was forming to get Inec adhoc work buh today i'm struggling to b shortlisted due to the fact that the crowd in the training was just too much compared to 2015 people were very few and people easily get selected buh today the reverse is the case particularly due to the contemporary hardship and difficulties like never b4 imposed by Buhari insensivity of Nigeria economy and incoherence of giving more attention to diversify the economy and making things cheap for the living standard of the people, he is busy witchaunting corrupt politicians from the opposition all in the name of fighting corruption at the expense economy diversification.

I Curse those that still want to Vote Buhari this Coming Election. You people have no conscience!

Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC) Chairman Prof Itse Sagay (SAN) on Wednesday explained why Chief Justice Walter Onnoghen’s assets non-declaration charge cannot first be determined by the National Judicial Council (NJC).

In a statement, the eminent professor of law, citing constitutional provisions, argued that not every offence committed by a judicial officer must first be brought before the NJC.

He added: “By the very logic of the powers of the NJC, cases arising out of a breach of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act and the Code of Conduct provision in the Constitution cannot come before the NJC.

“If the NJC first decides the matter before the defendant is arraigned in court or at the Tribunal, what happens if the NJC finds the defendant liable and removes him from office as a Judge? In that case, he ceases to be a Judicial Officer as well as a Public Officer.

“Can he, therefore, be tried as a public officer before the Code of Conduct Tribunal? The answer is no, because he is no longer a public officer.

“The extant provisions of the Constitution and the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act would be rendered nugatory by a prior NJC involvement.”

The PACAC chairman faulted arguments that the prosecution ought to comply with the Court of Appeal decision in the case of Nganjiwa vs. F.R.N.

He said: “It should be noted first that this judgment contradicts the clear provisions of the Code of Conduct as established in the Constitution which gives the Code of Conduct Tribunal jurisdiction over all public officers, including the Chief Justice of Nigeria. (See 5th Schedule, Part One, of the 1999 Constitution).

“Moreover, the Court of Appeal in Nganjiwa’s case was directing its judgment to a judicial officer committing an offence in the process of carrying out his duties as a judge in a court namely: demanding bribe from a party to the case before him.

“Therefore, the ratio decidendi in this case is much narrower in scope than is being touted by our all mighty Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs). Filling an Assets Declaration Form is totally outside the ambit of a judicial officer’s work. It applies to all public officers.

“If one may ask – should a drunken judge behind a car steering wheel kill an innocent pedestrian, will the offence be taken before the NJC, before the police can act on the crime?

“Indeed, inspite of its defects, the Court of Appeal judgment in the Nganjiwa’s case expressly limited reference to the NJC only to cases of a judicial officers’ misconduct in court whilst exercising his authority as judge in case before him in court.

“According to the court: ‘It must be expressly stated that if a Judicial officer commits theft, fraud, murder or manslaughter, arson and the likes, which are crimes committed outside the scope of performance of his official functions, he may be arrested, interrogated and prosecuted accordingly by the State directly without recourse to the NJC. These classes of criminal act are not envisaged and captured by the provisions of paragraph 21, Part One of the Third Schedule.’

“This demonstrates the hollowness and invalidity of the argument that every offence committed by a judicial officer must first be brought before the NJC, before the law enforcement agencies can entertain it.”

Besides, Sagay believes that the NJC cannot be expected to be fair in Chief Justice Onnoghen’s case.

“Almost all the Senior Advocates of Nigeria have argued that even in a case involving the breach of the Code of Conduct, for which the law has already made express provisions, the matter shall be taken to the NJC rather than to the Code of Conduct Tribunal.

“They can’t be serious. They must obviously be speaking tongue in cheek. Even a baby, three months old, must realise that no one can get justice against the CJN at the NJC.

“The CJN is not only the Chairman of the NJC, he is also the appointor of 20 out of the NJC’s 23 members. The CJN is the NJC.

“Only a grossly ignorant man or an extremely mischievous one could seriously suggest that a matter involving the CJN should be brought before the NJC for adjudication.

“Therefore, the whole idea of taking the present case to the NJC is a nonstarter, for that would make the CJN the Chief Judge of his own case – a clear violation, not only of the Constitution, but also of a long standing common law principle coming all the way from MAGNA CARTER in the year 1215,” the PACAC chairman said.

Sagay was of the view that the substance of the charge against Chief Justice Onnoghen “is deliberately being abandoned by the SANs and some other lawyers.”

“Why is Nigeria such a Theatre of the Absurd? Today, we are only talking about preliminary objections, interim injunctions, challenge of jurisdiction, wrong procedure, etc., etc.

“Nobody is talking about the substantive issue any longer. That is now lost in the sands of time.

“Did he do it? Did he not do it? The questions we should all be asking are contained in the front page of The Nation Newspaper of Tuesday 15th January, 2019: Did the CJN fail to submit a written declaration of all his assets and liabilities within prescribed period of three months after being sworn it?

“Did he omit to declare a domiciliary (US dollar) account No. 870001062650 maintained with Standard Chartered Bank Nigeria Limited? Did he falsely omit to declare a domiciliary (Euro) account No. 93001062686 maintained with the bank?


“Did he falsely omit to declare an e-Saver Savings (naira) account No. 5001062963 maintained with the bank? Did he falsely fail to declare naira Account 010001062667?”

Sagay advised Nigerians not be distracted by what he called a vicious and fraudulent campaign intended to sacrifice the substance and justice of the case on the altar of technicalities, adding that the truth must not be the first casualty in the matter.

The 4th who wanted to go for unconstitutional 3rd Term, after spending 16Billion dollars to fix power, but brought darkness, is very bitter he couldn't control President Buhari..

The last idiot wearing slave hat, is angry the money he made from the ineffectual buffoon after promising him christain votes in 2015 is depleting fast, hence the need to have PDP back...

Like Nnamdi Cownu, they are all useless....

MKO was a cilivian, a potician, philanthropist, he was many things and a great man. He wasn't known to be a warrior, yet given the huge title he fought on and refused to relinquish his mandate in Nigeria's fairest election till date in exchange for freedom and it cost him his life. Even without being a warrior he persevered and in the end he didn't betray the sacred order that the bearer must never surrender even on the pain of death. Think on that

dexterinc2003:
IPOB keeps claiming he is with the FG, but my question is, if this is true, why hasn't his family filed even an ordinary missing person's report? Why hasn't his wife screamed blue murder so far?

The truth is that Nnamdi Kanu is hiding to evade being arrested, so don't you dare quote me and talk nonsense about why the military surrounded the house of a man that created his own Army in a Sovereign state(like any country wouldn't do that).

The possible outcomes of this court hearing would be either Kanu is declared wanted or his sureties are made to account via confiscation of their bail bonds.

Mind you, Kanu cannot hide forever, sooner or later he has to come out. I will advise the IPOB family not to make too much noise while pretending Kanu is missing, because if an ordinary private investigator(PI) is contracted to fish him out. He will be rounded up within 1 week (Pablo Escobar is an example).


True talk!
Nnamdi Kanu the idiotic pig in-chief of IPOB is missing in action!
His handlers have advised him to abscond and remain a fugitive.

What a shame to IPOB members worldwide!


So I will advise him(Kanu) to do the honorable thing (because something tells me he is on NL) and dance to the music he created and stop playing games like a miscreant before things get worse for him.

N. B: Quote me with insults and receive first class Thunder tonight.

nwaanambra1:
gosh! u really need to get yourself a job men!



this guy is using reverse psychology on the FGN of Nigeria!



He just sold a dummy to them!


the court will now force the federal government to prove how Nnamdi kanu was able to escape to Uk without his paspports!


The British government will now be force to declare a force-major on Nigeria and ask that the government should provide proves that Nnamdi Kanu is in Uk as they claimed!


The senator will be called to tell what he know about his bailiff!

the immigration service will explain how a person can leave this county without evidence without passport.



this is a pure case of when u r digging a pit for your enemy - dont dig it too deep in case u mistakenly fall into it.


NIGERIA WILL REALIZE THAT ITS NOT EVERYBODY YOU CAN MURDER AND GET AWAY WITH IT. THEY MURDERED EL-ZAKZAKY AND HIS WIFE AND HID IT - NOW THEY MURDERED NNAMDI KANU AND HIS PARENTS AND STILL BELIEVE THEY CAN HIDE IT TOO.

WE ARE SILENTLY WATCHING.


We will see how this goes.

cyrilamx:
They refused to condemn Kanu's excesses because they were strongly of the opinion that PMB will never return alive courtesy of rumour-death cum vegetable state spread by Fayose, FFK, Sahara reporters and host of others. They started singing new melody when Buhari eventually returned. Even die-hard Biafra heroine-amarabae is now even against Kanu's methodology.

ProWalker:
Just one single strike of the python and the whole ipob agitation crumbled.

Nigeria political leaders are 1st class graduates of the Machiavelli school of thought

Buhari used this Law #42 to total perfection

Law 42: Strike the Shepherd and the Sheep will Scatter
Trouble can often be traced to a single strong individual – the stirrer, the arrogant underling, the poisoned of goodwill. If you allow such people room to operate, others will succumb to their influence. Do not wait for the troubles they cause to multiply, do not try to negotiate with them – they are irredeemable. Neutralize their influence by isolating or banishing them. Strike at the source of the trouble and the sheep will scatter.

It was a master stroke
By banishing and not arresting or killing him, the government achieved so many points.

Falana is just a typical Afonja. No matter how old they are, they still think the same way. Even my toddler knows that NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT OR THE COURT CONFISCATED KANU'S BRITISH PASSPORT. The fact that Falana, a lawyer, SAN, pretends not to know this, tells me he is an afonja. Kanu is around and he is going no where. HIS LIFE IS IN DANGER AS YOU SAID BECAUSE THEY INVADED HIS HOME TO KILL HIM. HE WILL NOT COME OUT TO ATTEND ANY USELESS COURT PROCEEDINGS UNTIL THERE IS ASSURANCE HE WILL NOT BE HARM BY NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT OR UNTIL THE PENDING INTENTIONAL PROTECTION ORDER FOR HIS SAFETY IN NIGERIA IS APPROVED
