What Nigeria can learn from the failed coup.

The people loved their country more than their political parties, both the ruling and opposition party vehemently rejected the coup, the protest started just few minutes after the president address the citizens through FaceTime to go out and protest and immediately they where all out. The military knew it was a lost battle the moment the people came out Enmass to boo them, they had no choice but to submit to the govt. it was a tensed moment in Ankara and Istanbul f16 and assorted military jet parading the skies of turkey yet the people failed to be intimidated, defiled curfew and went out to fight for their right, it was civilians that forced military men out of attarurk airport, they did same at the state own broadcasting station that was seized by military same for cnn turkey.

If this was to be in Nigeria either PDP or APC would politicalized it and thereby divide the citizens, if the coup was against a southerner trust the north to support the coup, against a northerner the south will support. The Muslim too are going to support if an infidel a southerner was to be ousted out and the Christians will do same against a Muslim

I also realized that despite the tensed moment, the military didn't start shooting sparodically at protesters that was why they could disharm them. I could see civilians daring military with tanks and they kept calm as against Nigeria military who will kill 1000 on the spot.

The turkey opposition parties realized that despite their political differences they must save democracy first before talking about holding to power something our political class lack.

erdogan was not in control of the country for hours, he flew out of the country hence he had to address the country through FaceTime after military took control of trt and other media houses. The only hope left was the citizens who he told to go in the street and this didn't take minutes before they did.

If this was Nigeria, either PDP or APC would have supported the military and this would divide the citizens instead of protesters to go against the military, it would be PDP loyalist against APC loyalist and the military would take advantage to complete what they started.

The people in unity got back their country and restored democracy.

Hope we can learn a thing from this.

the only prominent Igbo man in the military now kicked out? Hahaha this Buhari administration is not favourable to Igbos at all.

Well make una take heart it is just temporary

Igboic:
Same set of people that had failed the Igbo nation.

They are part of our past and not so good present, they are sure not going to usher us into the golden future we desire.

Final verdict: Waste of time gathering. Next!

Yes, kneel is philologically rooted in kun le. If you think im lying remove the vowels and compare the residual.

Queen Elizabeth sef will confirm to you that most of Royal symbols of authority she posess and use are rooted in Yoruba rites of rulership and divine authority.

Dont play with Yoruba race!

I've read many times how igbos on this forum claim their region and indigenes are the backbone of Nigeria economy,and how they claim all beautiful and economy viable parts of Nigeria were solely developed by them.
why is that Igbos aren't leading Nigeria billionaires list?
why is it that igbos have the Highest poverty rate in southern part of Nigeria?
why is it that the southeast contributes the least to Nigeria from the south?
why is that igbolands that have high concentration of Igbo population with their so called economic prowess are not as developed as Lagos,kano,ibadan where they have lesser population and claim to have developed?

tsephanyah:
Biafran, if u win by breaking up Nigeria, I don't think is possible because the west already regretted about Iraq, Libya, etc. Nigeria is not an exception, there is majority of Muslims in Nigeria, Chad, Niger, mali, cameroon, and Isis is active in all this country, so pls do u think, Biafra can stand one night as a country? I don't think biafra can stand one day, Isis will use all Muslim to distablize the whole Africa, think inside the box biafrans
