Actually , he didn't.

Coup failed largely because the coupists did not get Ironsi, then the head of the Nigerian army, as well as another coupist (not ademoyega) developing cold feet.

Yea I concur with u, Ironsi was a coward sleeping in ship for fear of death wch still meet him there. Gowon show those men from the east sha oo

AnonyNymous:
The 1966 Nigerian coup d'état began on January 15, 1966 when mutinous Nigerian soldiers led by
Kaduna Nzeogwu assassinated 11 senior Nigerian politicians and two soldiers as well as kidnapping three others. The coup plotters attacked the cities of Kaduna , Ibadan , and Lagos while also blockading the Niger and Benue River within a two-day span of time before the coup plotters were subdued.
*****
That's what I saw on the Wikipedia page, and I just recently read China Achebe's 'There was a country'.
Explain Ifeajuna's major role to me, Achebe didn't really put him into any relevance in the book

Go and read "Why we struck" by one of the coup plotters Adewale Ademoyiga u will understand better but as one of them he portray themselves as heroes and he also was in Favour of the east. cus he fought as a Biafra soldier. Read it's very fine.

StOla:
Tinubu simply created foot soldiers who were trained to become generals of their own army, but whose loyalty is pledged to only Ceaser Tinubu. That way he casted his shadow on territories far from home, ensuring that his name will live as long as the foot soldiers continue to grow their own army.

He has also managed to fund his political family by enriching himself with funds derived from state sources , not by direct stealing like foolish governors who stole like they were invisible to the law, but by way of having his mouth in every pie, while employing his training as an accountant and experience as a treasurer in Mobil to keep within the framework of relevant laws.

I suspect that only Tinubu can successfully probe Tinubu.

haha jab

" only Tinubu can successfully probe Tinubu"

The coup can not sail through

The coup has failed the people seems 2 be in support of the government.

watching it on CNN

Only looking at the charger shows its fake.

You think these set of leaders in igboland would do anything for igboland if they get there? We don't need your useless presidency. You can keep it. You would never benefit from it anyway even if your father becomes president.
What i am praying and soliciting for is a revolution in governance in igboland. I don't give a hoot about Nigeria.
As long as we can elect credible igbocentric governors who would unite the people , develop our land and peacefully and meticulously work towards our national independence as a long term goal.

keep dreaming sha while am facing reality n fact. u guys that can not even unite as a front u talking abt revolution.

Your politics is backward. We have done all the compromising and humility in the past thanks to azikiwe and co and it gave us nothing.
Your leaders have compromised and'' humbled themselves'' and your future away for crumbs. A different approach is needed.

yea it is damn right backwards but u know what? u guys will never see that seat and u know it u just have 2 continue with ur grumbling and shouting without any meaningful action

story

men from the east with pride look at all they comments u will know these guys have a long way very long way 2 go 2 survive in this naija politics
