IGBOSON1:
Nnamdi Azikiwe had his faults....he was too idealistic, naive and believed too much in 'one Nigeria' given his place of birth and where he spent his early years in journalism and nationalism! That being said, he was one of a tripartite, so assuming without conceeding that what you accuse him of is true, how come one part of the tripartite was able to 'FORCE' the other two against their will? Because i'm assuming by your statement that the other two were unwilling participants in the 'one Nigeria' project!
Zik did not listen and was carried away with the euphoria of being “the leader”, especially when other nations like Oduduwa and Arewa were giving him red carpet welcoming. That is why a fool like Amaechi is feeling good as Minister to a Cattle rearer because they are clapping for him and he is feeling fly...

Nonsense

Re: Aftermath Of Pogrom: Scenes In Kano After Anti-igbo Violence | October 1966 by West1side: 5:41pm On May 22, 2021
My reasoning is incohorent n unreasonable but the Yoruba were the coup plotter n watch premier of western region killed while Igbos that were not the coup plotter safeguard the premier of the East n Azikwe the foolish ceremonial head of state.

This is how foolishly many of your Igbos reason, I do not understand if your brain is flawed to reason like this but it's just plain bigotry hatred n foolishness for others.

As for hating Igbos I have every right to that as Igbos express their right to hate Awolowo Tinubu Fashola Buhari n Co. Your bigoted Igbo father does not have the monopoly to hate.

Surdana was a bigot n he allowed igbo as president n allowed Igbo to head the parliament with Igbos holding many port folio in his govt. You Igbos no de fear God I swear, was it not under this same Surdana that the fool Azikwe appointed an Igbo lunatic as the VC of UI ? Did the fool Azikwe not corner many portfolio to his unqualified igbo brethren I know of his nepotism with the railway n the information ministry to start with.

The most tribalistic tribe that nurtured it infant with irredeemable hate n chronic bigotry in Nigeria remains the Igbos, then the Fulani come a distant second 4 their love for power but at least those ones don't just hate like lunatics 4 nothing.

Omanambala:
You lack the capacity to have a well reasoned discussion , because you are blinded with hate , bitterness and fhoolishness. It's all well written in your post. But , firstly, we Igbo are not like northerners that rate human existence based on their status. We respect the life of every living soul in our culture because we actually believe that all human are not only equal but has something special God has blessed them with that could be useful to our society. This is where we differ with most Nigerian groups. We don't do caliphate, emirate and whatever archaic institutions you have...we are Republicans by share nature.

In your northern Nigeria the ruling class are the one who deserve to live and enjoy riches and affluence while your poor can burn to hell that's why your leaders aren't ruffled by the slaughtering of their masses by Boko Haram and bandits. So, unlike you , we value our people regardless their social status.

And , for your own education, while the coup was mostly carried out by the Igbo there are many people from other ethnicities involved. Many Yoruba were very much involved, so , stop being smart by half. Now, you may call it a southern coup dominated by Igbo, western Igbo in particular.

Yes, while you have your opinion however incoherent and unreasonable it may be don't expect people to take you serious when you utter nonsense.

Sarduana was a nepotistic tribal bigot that needed to be dealt with because he was jittery about Igbo success and was fast heating up the polity. He brought this misfortune unto himself with his fhoolish utterances.

So what should we do with this video now?

The strong will always deal with the weak. We have seen it with Palestine where Israelis keep bombing children and people keep cheering them on.

I have learnt that the oppressed sometimes might actually be the oppressor if role were switched so I don’t always give any iota of bleep for anything.

Just answer the damn question

Igbos are this ,igbos are that ....u yourself Know that with your hate for igbos there absolutely nothing an igbo man would do that u guys would vote him as president

If not u would be presenting Joe igbokwe for president in 2023 ( yes you don't need igbo vote to make him president like obj proved )

But nah ...the hate towards igbos are just too much

West1side:
Ain't you plaqued by the same reasoning. So in your deluded igbo mind you believe the death of the Prime Minister n premier of bother north n west should equal the prosecution of just igbo miscreant that killed them ?!

Why were the Igbos on the street rejoicing over their death or were Igbo sitting gently in their homes before they started killing them. You are think every other Nigeria have no sense of history.

Killing the leaders of every tribe in Nigeria by Igbos is not pogrom against those tribe but retaliating the mocking by senseless Igbos after slaughtering leaders of other tribe is pogrom n you think your reasoning isn't flawed.

In your igbo reasoning some hopeless bastard Igbos of no significance whatsoever can be equated to the democratically elected prime Minister n premier of both the north n the west ?! Well I do not agree with that n believe the program is fair n not adequate punishment for the effrontery by the some Igbos to slaughter a whole prime minister, premier of North n west while they refuse to kill the Igbo premier of the east n Igbo ceremonial foolish Azikwe.

My opinion is my right, you are entitled to yours as well. You can not hold others responsible to what you are not willing to hold your tribe to.
First off...what’s your ethnicity/region? This will help me place your answers in their proper context. Also, based on your warped submission, are you now affirming that Igboland is expansive and large...including large parts of Delta and Rivers states? Your answer to this would help when i’m responding to your bigoted kind who say Igboland is not more than ‘just your 5 south-east states’!

Can’t say i’m surprised at your position on this issue, as i’ve always believed your kind are so medieval-minded, hateful, vengeful, evil and sick in the head! It only takes one exhibiting the traits just mentioned to think going out on the streets to hack down innocent Igbos in cold blood is an acceptable response for the actions of a few soldiers who acted on their own volition!

I guess repeating a lie over and over again, you’re hoping people will start to believe it’s factually correct! I’m referring to the lie you lot cooked up to try and give some justification for your actions....that, on hearing the news of the Sadaunas’ demise, Igbos were out partying in the streets like it’s nineteen ninety nine (apologies to Prince shocked )! Care to provide links to neutral, independent sources at the time that could help buttress your assertion? And while at it, also provide links to news reports of the time that showed Ndigbo voted to send Nzeogwu and co to go do what they did!

If you’re bristling with hate and anger that Zik, Okpara, etc weren’t also assassinated, i suggest you take it up with Nzeogwu, et-al! Get it into your thick skull that Ndigbo has nothing to do with their hare-brained plot!

The funny but sad thing in all this is that Kaduna Nzeogwu was a northerner in all but name (some may wanna argue different, seeing as his middle name was KADUNA), but it probably never occurred to him that he was never gonna be accepted by the people he thought were family! I doubt when he was planning the coup, that he thought even for a second that it would be ‘conveniently’ tagged a ‘Igbo coup’!

You have lost all credibility here. I remember your comments during end SARS protest. You barged in here with your bigoted and coward mind blaming Igbo for the attack at your Oba palace. Then , your street king , Oluomo maintained your people did it....lol. You aren't just intelligent enough to hold discussions like this because hate , especially blind hate can obscure your judgement. You might as well blame Igbo for boko haram and bandits attacks.

You want to sound logical with the pogrom but your own people are also being slaughtered by herdsmen. So , is that also fair in this your theory of "weak and strong" ? When does starving innocent women and children become showing strength ?

If I enter into your villages and slaughtered your innocent masses is that being strong , too ? Ode ni e, olonwu!

Kaduna Nzeogwu was born and raised in the north. He spoke Hausa and believed in one Nigeria. So was Zik and Ojukwu, both were northern born Igbo who didn't see tribe in the beginning. Zik was also an idealist who returned from the U.S with the gullible pan African ideology but was he so wrong. The people he called brethren were despised him.

At the emboldened, isn't that what Igbos did n are still doing to Awo while ignoring the Yakubu that killed your father. This comment buttress how pathetic you Igbos accusing others of exactly what you forefathers have been doing since. Isn't it the same reason you lot loath Tinubu now like Ngige Onyeama Onu etc have no hand in bringing Buhari to power.

Quit sounding DAFT! Anyone not informed and reading your idiotic post will think Igbos as a ethnicity decided to send Nzeogwu and co (not all the coupists were Igbo) to go out and 'slaughter the Prime Minister Of Nigeria' and others! The video and recorded history tells us the pogrom against Igbos was a widespread affair in the north...comitted by ordinary folk on the steets! This shows that a anti-Igbo sentiment was rife and widespread throughout most of the north.....permeating almost throughout their society, right from the very top (their Premier) and down to the commoner on the street!
But they celebrate the killings of Sadauna, Balewa and Akintola

His name was actually Chukwuma kaduna Nzeogwu
To be sincere, you don't know what you are typing.

After the unsuccessful coup, he was dismissed from the army and put in jail by ironsi.

After that the biafra war happened and he escaped from prison and joined biafra, he died with biafra and his body wasn't found.

Below is the news from the Guardian in Jan 18, 1966 where the treacherous Azikiwe who 100% most likely know the coup will happen before he travelled abroad talking about not returning to Naija and bla bla bla.

They murdered every other leader except theirs and expect people to look away and stomach the loss as if it never happened.
