Summit for wealth…

The Ijaws

The Igbos

The Fulanis

The Hausas

This thread is to focus on the positive attributes and achievements of the major tribes in Nigeria;

The Omoluabis, Lukumis, Anagos (popularly known as the Yorubas) - A very rich culture and history spreading across Western Nigeria, Benin Republic, Togo, parts of Ghana, Brazil, Cuba and the Caribbeans.

Intelligent, accommodating, tolerant.

Gave the gift of IFÁ and Orunmila to the world. A non-discriminatory belief system.

Impeccable fashion state as evident in their local fabrics.

The Hausas

The Fulanis

The Igbos

The Ijaws


Will complete this later today.

While I was on the streets of twitter. Lo and behold!!!

What is your position in government?

He’s a Nairaland mod. That’s his position in government.

He will hide this comment very soon to cover his tracks

Jagaban2012:
Yes...I agree that you started the thread, but you have also posted some other evidences to back up your claims that are unrelated to your thread....and since you have posted some other evidences to back up your claim, you can also post evidence of those soldiers who were killed by the coupists to back up your claim.
All of this information is still relevant to the coup that occurred in 1966. By this evidences , You have not derailed the conversation at all

As I mentioned earlier, Arthur Unegbe was the only casualty of Igbo origin in the coup.

I’ll post the screenshot of the casualties when Nairaland allows me upload screenshots again.

Either later tonight or tomorrow.

Jagaban2012:
Dont run away....

I have accepted your military record, so let us also paste the list of soldiers who died during this coup....

Let us help society understand the true picture of the coup.

Read this other thread I created in case you think you’re making a point I’ve not spoken about.

https://www.nairaland.com/8325556/january-15-1966-arthur-unegbe

Arthur Unegbe was the only casualty of Igbo origin in the January 1966 coup.

Ademoyega, one of the coup plotters openly stated it was not an “Igbo” coup. Well, unless you know more than him.

Jagaban2012:
Speak to the matter. ...don't be evasive. ....

Paste the military records of soldiers who died as a result of this coup...and let's see.

I dare you to paste the list of soldiers who died... you can find this record in this military archive you pick this information.....

Do not get me wrong, the military record is correct, but your emphasis is a deliberate attempt to deceive people....and to justify your false notion...m

Why are you deceiving people?....Kaduna Nzogbwu is the commander, and he gave the order.....you can be using this record justify your false information.and if you are bent on using the record , you can as well paste the military records of the soldiers who lost their live during this coup period and let's see how many Ibo soldiers were in the list.. ..

Let us reconcile with the distorted truth you pasted before.

I can see you’ve edited your post.

Guy, you no get point. It is not an “Igbo” coup. Case closed.

Oya take this update from Max Siollun and calm down your nerves.

Let us reconcile with the distorted truth you pasted before.

I will not let you deflect from your obvious gaffe here.

1. Google what a special branch report means as far as Nigeria defence/military history is concerned.

2. Prove to us this report from one of Nigeria’s foremost military historians - Nowamagbe Omoigui is fake.

I double dare you to do it.

Jagaban2012:
And I responded to your distorted through by setting the record straight....in this deadly operation, apart from the premier of both Northern and Western regions, the then prime minister, and the then finance federal minister, there were some notable senior military officers who were also killed....and I believe you know them if you claimed this information was gotten from a military source....the military also have the record of soldiers who were killed....now go to

I can assure you that only one Igbo soldier was on record.I never said anything....the rest majority of those in the list are from the north and west. ...can this be coincidence or all the soldiers in the north and west are just chicky? . ..I haven't said anything., but you can reconcile this information with your sneaky and deceptive military record.....

You’ve just exposed your ignorance on this platform.

Google what the Special Branch Report means in the Nigerian Defence/Military records, then prove to us that Nowamagbe Omoigui lied in that report.

I double dare you, Mr heavyweight in political knowledge.

The naked truth shock your narratives abi?

festacman:
Any coalition that will unseat President Tinubu must be driven by
1) a robust Economic Plan and
2) multi-sectoral reform proposals
by the opposition and not just another a gang-up to grab power to continue status quo.

- A practical Economic Plan to revive Nigerian economy and lay a new foundation that will incentivize exiting and potential industrial investors as well as leverage the economic potentials (agriculture, food processing, animal husbandry, fishery and Marines resources, sports, entertainment, tourism, etc) of geopolitical zones.

- Multi-sectoral reform proposals that will improve various sectors economy since most of them are still operating on operational frameworks put in place in 60' s and 70's. Tinubu has done Tax reform but the surface has not been scratched.

Remember the coalition that removed PDP from power in 2015?

They had fantastic plans and promises on paper.

SmartyPants:
Which part of what you have bolded there suggests that conclusion?

😎

SmartyPants:
All of this is meaningless.

1. This coup was initially greeted with widespread acceptance and jubilation across the nation, including the north. This only changed when northerners sat back and assessed the full aftermath and then realized that they had been targeted. Their anger was further fuelled by the fact that they had been used as tools in their own destruction.

2. What is the point of mentioning the names of those who were compelled to take part in the coup by their superior officers? A member of the rank and file or a lower-ranking officer had no decision-making power. To disobey a command would have meant death, as the unfortunate Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke learned. Oyegoke was executed on the spot by Nzeogwu for refusing to obey his (Nzeogwu's) order to attack the Sardauna's lodge.

So it was not an “Igbo” coup?

Jagaban2012:
You started this thread to misinform people. Your sponsors, who paid you for this, never considered your political leanings before awarding you the contract....you are a paper weight in political knowledge.

Those of us who have researched Nigeria's political history are always passionate about informing people about the reality, not the fabricated history you are sharing on social media.

I misinformed people by posting data from the military archives?

Mr heavyweight in political knowledge, is the data in the special branch report faulty?

Is the military historian that documented that report incompetent hmmm?

Max Siollun, Segun Johnson and Wale Ademoyega are lightweight historians too abi?

I think we need a thread to discuss the 1963 constitution thoroughly.

Helinues,

Can you provide us with progress updates on Tinubu’s 3 year 8 point agenda to revive the Nigerian economy between August 29 2023 to August 29 2026?

1. food security;
2. poverty eradication;
3. growth,
4. job creation;
5. access to capital;
6. inclusion;
7. rule of law; and
8. fighting corruption

And the 50 million jobs promised between 2023 to 2026

Gbam!

Ok

helinues:
The pan African movement which was led by Malema, This Prof in Africa , I have forgotten his name , Peter Obi is also part of that movement. And another Dr lady from Ethiopia or so.The group was supposed to correct the over bearing of the West but they all lose focus along the way.

Their first official meeting in Ghana was cancelled because the organiser ( Kwame) in Ghana had another agenda about the program. So it was cancelled at the last hour. Obi was even already in Ghana when their government announced the closing of the Venue

Hmmm

DarkJeddi:
Excuses upon excuses..
So because Lumumba was killed a lifetime ago,that's why the Nation has become a complete catastrophy?
That's the problem with Africa.
We like glorifying myths and legends,whilst we waste away from stupendous mismanagement..
Always looking for whom and what to blame for our gross ineptitude..

Why are puppets propped up by the imperialists rather than let Africa be free?

Mobutu ruled for almost 4 decades with nothing tangible to show for it.

Popular freedom fighters like Mulele rose up to challenge him, but was killed off by the Congolese military and imperialists. Why this?

DarkJeddi:
Congo DR is what happens when low IQ,clueless black Savages are left to their devices..
One of the most blessed nations on Planet Earth torn to shreds,tueh!

Why was this visionary killed?

https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/poverty-matters/2011/jan/17/patrice-lumumba-50th-anniversary-assassination

The ghost of Patrice Lumumba must be appeased.

DR Congo has never remained the same since this patriot was betrayed and slaughtered for the greed of the imperialists and the sell outs.

Mobutu, Tshombe, KasaVubu, Munongo. May you continue to rest in pieces for selling out the DRC.

Long live Patrice Emery Lumumba!!!✊🏿

Africa shall be great again
Freed from the shackles of the imperialists and the sellouts.

Jagaban2012:
Speak to the issue .....if you have a superior arguement stop meandering comments

I created the thread and the OP.

Counter the facts there if you have sufficient and persuasive evidence to the contrary.

We are patiently waiting.

🥱

Jagaban2012:
Put a stop to it all.Your propaganda and all of that will not help you....you are not speaking to a naive person....
Ademulegun and his wife were killed during the same deadly operation...Ademulegun's wife was killed . With a pregnancy in her womb.....or do you want to tell me that you ate unaware?

You better run away. ...

It was not an “Igbo” coup though.

You go insult tire, nothing more wey you fit do for this thread.
