PoliticsRe: The Northern Counter-coup Of 1966: The Full Story Without Bias! by Patebere(m): 4:33pm On Apr 27, 2015
I appreciate all ur comments and commitments to d nation, Nigeria. I hav my own opinions too. 1st, I dn't tink there is any need 4 disintegration again. I believe we've outgrown it. We hav tried it several times b4 and it failed. As 4 d coups, I believe Nzeogwu was doing wat he tot right, it's just un4tunate that luck ran against him,maybe due to the mistake of some of his comrades. So, I dn't blame him. As 4 d war, Ojukwu was also doin wat he tot right. But he should hav knw beta as an experienced army officer, what the consequence of war would be on his pple esp when they least had wat it take to prosecute a war. So, I tink wat we all, irrespective of our tribe or region, should do now is to go bak 2 d drawin board 2geda to plot a map on reform. In order to consolidate our past and build the future.

Would hav bn a nice adventure but it was poorly planned. The executors of the coup down south made a terrible mistake by not taken care of Ironsi. Just like tryin to topple the present democratic govt without taking care of the service chiefs especially defence chief and army chief.

Whats wrong for Bello to be holding meetings with the Prime Minister when they are from the same party?

Tell me what is nationalistic?

There were 4 premiers in the country

1 Hausa, 1 Yoruba, 2 Ibos. Nationalistic means killing the 2 non Ibos and sparing the 2 Ibos? Only the non Ibos were corrupt?

We have a President and a prime minister Northern. Nationalistic is to kill the Hausa and spare the Ibo?

WHat of the numerous Ibos in cabinet position that time? None of them was corrupt?

E.g you come home you saw that your kids and your friends kids have made a mess of the house, Your friend chose to punish your own kids and not his
Zik was out of the country when d coup took place. How could he hav possibly been a victim. Remember dat d 1975 coup dat ousted Gowon took place in his absence too. Personally, I blame d executors of d coup in the south as being responsible for its failure. Had it been Ironsi was done away with, it would have succeeded. Note also that the key-people who aborted d coup were Igbos too. So if the coup was an Igbo thing, then its failure was also an Igbo thing. So let me ask u, where do d Igbos stand on this? And does dat mean that it was only the Igbos that were in the Nigerian army? For plannin a coup and at the same time forstalling it.

[quote ad duthor=Volksfuhrer post=33090129]I am laughing as I type this...Akintola had to be killed because he fired on them first? Balewa and Bello too had to be killed because they were tribal? Or perhaps you are just pulling my leg.

Anyway, let's cut to the chase. Those that would be killed had been prearranged for death long before that fateful day. They were not going to arrest Akintola at all. It was death by dawn! Ditto Bello and Balewa. But miraculously our leaders in the East were spared because their sins were not as great!

Even Nzeogwu felt so betrayed he called some of his colleagues especially those that failed in the East and those that spared Ironsi tribalists!

The 1966 coup would have made sense only if Igbo leaders were not spared. What happened eventually was selective justice. And here we are today still talking about it! It was not our military's finest hour.[/quote]But do u knw Brig Ademulegun wouldn't hav bn killed if he had not resisted arrest. Same goes for Sodeinde. Why was Kashim Shettima, d northern region governor, not killed? Rather he was arrested and taken to the brigade headquarters. He himself later attested that his captors gave him d best hospitality.

Volksfuhrer:
This argument doesn't cut it! Okpara was arrested. Why didn't the coup plotters extend the same courtesy to Balewa, Akintola and Bello? The plan was to kill everyone of these leaders, but for some patriotic reasons Okpara escaped unscathed! And Zik just happened to go on a cruise at the time the coup was imminent?

The coup was vindictive, pure and simple!
Trace bak d history, u'll find out that Balewa and Bello were the two problems of the nation. They were deeply soaked in tribalism. Let me tell you why Akintola was killed. He got d pre-in4matn of d coup and dat soldiers were on their way to his house. He armed himself and waited 4 them. He opened fire on them first and wounded many including Cpt. Nwobosi who led the team. They really had no choice

I quite concur with you. Dat's absolutely true. Ironsi's interception of the coup was the beginning of the nation's disaster

That 1966 Coup ruined this country.

The Biafra war is understandable,but it dragged on for too long because 2 elephants were having an ego play, while the grass suffered the heat.

#Arrogance complicated issues in both cases! embarassed

#I wish both never happened.
I want to object to ur point and rather state that the 1966 coup was more necessary than the biafran war. because, as at the time of d coup, d nation was in total mess, corruption was d other of the day and tribalism was rili being played out. The army was even being politicized. Sumtin needed 2 be done, and desperately too. That was just wat the guys did to salvage the situation. But, I tink the civil war was just a case of two egos being played out by the two main protagonists of both sides. Declaring war when u did nt have all it took to prosecute d war was nt really advisable

I would have supported the Jan 1966 coup if those Ibo soldiers killed their own leaders like Michael Okpara, Osadebey and Azikwe instead of Balewa Akintola and Bello
My dear, let's look at it from a nationalist point of view, not being tribalistic or sentimental. The coup was mapped out for a purpose, not just to murder millitary officers. Zik was out of the country at the said time. Michael Opara was arrested though he had no effect in d central govt of the day. But Balewa was d federal prime minister, meaning dat d central govt rested on him and taking out d govt means taking him out. Ahmadu Bello has been on d frontliner of tribalistic instincts. Causin d PM to take some tribalistic steps. Havn't u heard of the nocturnal meetings that the Sardauna was holding with the PM in his Kaduna residence?

EducationThree Year One Students Drown In Akanu Ibiam Polytechnic, Unwana by Patebere(op):
It was a dark weekend in the Polytechnic community of Unwana, Ebonyi state last Friday, 17th April 2015 as three ND 1 Public Administration students got drown in Unwana beach a day after their matriculation ceremony. Thursday, 16th April 2015 was a lovely, bubbling day as the entire Polytechnic community celebrated the matriculation ceremony for their new students. The individual parties continued late into the night. Little did we know that the jubilation will be short-lived as it will become a thick-sorrow just the next day. The three victims, Isu Chioma, Ogbonna Eddy Miriam and Uguba Chioma with two others, Amarachi and Shontel were said to have left for the beach in the afternoon after they returned from school on Friday. According to an eye-witness account by Amarachi who is a sister to one of the victim, they crossed over to the other side of the river where they were swimming before the three drowned. The other two raised alarm and a batch of rescue team were dispatched to search for them. It took hours before their bodies were recovered from the beach. The girls were buried the next day as the entire polytechnic community was thrown into mourning. One of the girls is from Unwana, one hails from Afikpo while the third is a native of Isikwuato in Abia State. MAY THEIR SOUL REST IN PEACE UNDER THE BOSSOM OF THE LORD!

And what part exactly, did Maj. Ademoyega played in that coup that informed your hasty decision to confer such an honour of, "key-player" on him?

Of course, Ademulegun's death was necessary.........just as that of Maimalari too was a must...............but that of Ironsi wasn't. ............see ibo logic 101.............at its peak.
Major Ademoyega was one of the initial 5 majors that plotted the coup. He worked with Emma Ifeajuna, major Chukwuka and major Okafor to carry out the coup in the southern part of the country. He was arrested in Kaduna after the coup failed and transported to Lagos alongside Ben Gbulie and JC Ojukwu.
