How would you feel if you were Wellington Bassey and Ojukwu who is 10 years your Junior Officer is now Promoted to Col at the same time with you by your Army Junior Gen Ironsi ?

What kind of Cheating was that

Is it any wonder that hardly any Efiks were interested in Ojukwus Biafra.

they had seen enough

Wellington Bassey was Efik

What actions did Azikiwe take when he knew that Officers were being promoted over the head of Wellington Bassey who was from his own Eastern Region and whose interest he was supposed to fight for and protect

I have searched and searched all I could find was where Azikiwe Complained to Gen Ironsi that he should not have made Ojukwu Governor of the East ahead of Gen Bassey and five others who were all Senior to Ojukwu

obynzo:


Oga you are just everywhere and not making sense. I asked how come the british made only Ademulegun, Maimalari and Ironsi brigadiers. Why are you so fixated on Zik and Ironsi so are you saying that it was only Ironsi that Zik rapidly promoted and delayed only Bassey. So Zik now commands the army or controls the army right have you forgotten with the advent of prime minister that Zik's post was ceremonial and that he had no control over anything? Oga this attempt at spreading hate is not ideal and you are only making a fool of yourself. The list you keep parading is already clear to all and no one is saying Ironsi was the first Nigerian to join the army that is a lie, but as at 1964 Ironsi was the most senior by rank that as the GOC of the army

christistruth01:



It was the Nigerian Govt of Which Azikiwe was a part that made them Brigadiers In 1964 not the British


And Azikiwe didn't care that Bassey of his own Eastern Region was left out


When the British left it was Bassey that was the most Senior Army Officer

The remaining British Officers were in the Army in Contract and only offered Technical advice

If the British Officers offered Technical advice that Wellington Bassey[b]Oga show me evidence that they said Bassey be promoted to brigadier which is a big lie someone that was still Temporary Lt Col at that time[/b]
be made a Brigadier and the Balewa/Azikiwe Coalition Government decided to Ignore their advice as they often did they could do nothing

obynzo:


Another lie from you. The British made Ironsi, Ademulegun and Maimalari Brigadiers because they wanted Nigerians to fill senior positions that were vacated by the British as they were preparing to handover in 1965 Oga you are just repeating everything like a broken record. You have no talk and as such your lie is being busted. My advice to you go and get some job and busy yourself this game has failed and is DOA

christistruth01:




Sir

The British left Nigeria on October 1 1960

It was the Balewa/Azikiwe Nigerian Government that made them Brigadiers in 1964

obynzo:


The British army fully handed over to Nigerians in 1964 stop lying through your teeth. The independence was for self governance in Nigeria in 1960

christistruth01:




No sir It was Gen Welby Everad who handed over as a British Technical Officer who was Nigerian Army head in 1964

The Army was the Nigerian Army from the 1st of October 1960


The Nigerian Ministry of Defense Ribadu was still directly in Charge of the Nigerian Army and Azikiwe certainly had his ear

It was Ribadu that sent Ironsi on Training to England before he was Promoted to Army head and for your information Ironsi Performed so woefully on the Course that Lord Mountbatten on behalf of the British Personally wrote the Nigerian Government and advised against Ironsi being made the head of the Nigerian Army

The letter is in the British Archives and you can get a Copy if you order over the internet

obynzo:


You are a bigger liar. Ironsi didn't go for any professional course since 1961 Ironsi was Military attachee Nigerian high commission London from 1962 he was made commander UN forces in the Congo he held that position until 1964 when he came back. Ribadu never sent him on any course oga do you think we don't know history here. Again Zik's position is rather ceremonial the person that had Ribadu's ear was Balewa his boss. Oga we know our history you cannot be twisting it to incite hatred against the igbo

christistruth01:



Liar,

Which year did Ironsi finish the Imperial Defence College Training in the UK if it was not in 1964

Sorry that means you have no idea about the Courses and Trainings Ironsi attended

And where did Azikiwe who was Wellington Bassey's Eastern Regions Political Leader abandon Bassey

-------in a Captains posting at Zaria Depot training Recruits

Do you see how Scandalous it all is

Azikiwe should have just gone out of his way to Win Bassey over to his side instead of persecuting him and frustrating his Army Career

obynzo:


Ahhhh you are the biggest liar that ever lived which one is imperial defence college or are you referring to Imperial college where civillians like us go to do Bsc and Msc? Oga you don't even know how to lie self. Again there are two military colleges in the UK. Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and Mons Officers Cadet School Aldershot where Obasanjo, Ifeajuna and Co were Alumni. Ohhhh my God you are so hilarious in your attempt to spread lies to an extent i believe you may be suffering from mental schizophrenia or you are just a deranged person.

christistruth01:




No sir It was Gen Welby Everard who handed over as a British Technical Officer who was Nigerian Army head to Ironsi in 1965 and Ironsi took over Power within one Year

The Army was the Nigerian Army from the 1st of October 1960


The Nigerian Ministry of Defense Ribadu was still directly in Charge of the Nigerian Army and Azikiwe certainly had his ear

It was Ribadu that sent Ironsi on Training to England before he was Promoted to Army head and for your information Ironsi Performed so woefully on the Course that Lord Mountbatten on behalf of the British Personally wrote the Nigerian Government and advised against Ironsi being made the head of the Nigerian Army

christistruth01:


I am replying you for the sake of Nigerians that want to learn real History

obynzo:


Pump up your brakes bro stop trying to sound smart here . There is no Imperial defence college Ironsi could not have been in Royal college of defence studies when he left in 1961 as defence attachee in Nigerian high commision and went straight to command UN troops in Congo. Now if say he went as you erroneously put, how come someone who failed woefully was considered by the UN worthy to command troops in Congo?

There was no comparison with Ojukwu as he was an Officer and he was a graduate before being commissioned into the army.

Christistruth00:




Rubbish !!

Was Ironsi also a Graduate?

Gowon had no Problem Promoting Wellington Bassey to Brigadier only 7 months later In 1966 after he took Power

Oga that does not hold water. Gowon wanted to win allies that was why he did it because it was even contravening military ethics. meaning he skipped Colonel and became brigadier is that what you call cool. Oga go and sleep jare you are just stupid and dense you are so obsessed with igbo hatred when Balewa was in control of the army all the promotions were ratified by him even the british who still had technical control in the army up till 1964 end didn't promote so how was it Zik's fault. Oga you need to be arrested for hate speech and i am sending a copy of this to DSS so that you would be tracked. Enough is Enough

obynzo:


Why are you so dense and daft. Ironsi rose through the ranks isn't it not what we said. Even at that his promotion and rise was not as rapid as people who became officers straight like Maimalari and Ojukwu who was a graduate and went straight to officers corps

Christistruth00:





The fact you are full of Bitterness and Hate doesn’t mean everybody is like you.
This is a History Thread and it is about the actions of Gen Ironsi


History is based of Truthful facts and not lying Propaganda


Let me Politely remind you that every Single Nigerian Brigadier in the Nigerian Army including Gen Ironsi were all Wellington Bassey’s Juniors

Gowon only gave Wellington Bassey his very overdue Promotion to Brigadier

Remember that Gen Ironsi who was Bassey’s Junior was already a Major General by the time he was killed

obynzo:


Oga why are you projecting your bitterness on me? you are the one busy blaming Zik and Ironsi for delaying Wellington Bassey's promotion forgetting that it was the British high command that delayed his promotion because he lacked the drive to move ahead compared to his contemporaries like Ironsi and Ademulegun and again after the British left the control of the army was in the hands of the prime minister Balewa and the defence minister Ribadu so how was it Zik's fault? Did Wellington Bassey send a protest to Zik to look into his case? if he did where is the documented protest letter? i doubt if he had it. Now let me warn you if you continue with this i promise you i will send this screenshot to DSS and they will begin to track you for hate speech this nonsense has to stop.

Christistruth00:



Go back to read your Hate Speech

obynzo:


Look if you continue in this line. I have all your comments and all the inciting hate speeches from you as evidence which i will send to DSS for incitement and hate speech

Christistruth00:




Kindly go ahead and do so

obynzo:


just one more incitement and hate speech from you and you will see what will happen

Christistruth00:



Please kindly go ahead and do so right now

Thank you in advance

You can not stop anyone from narrating History Truthfully and honestly with all your Hate and Threats

obynzo:


Oga there is no atom of truth i have asked you again did Wellington Bassey protest to Ironsi or to Zik and he wasn't heard? again i ask is it Zik that controls the army or Balewa and Ribadu? Bros if you don have an answer to this then i will tag this as incitement. whatever you are saying should not be a subtle incitement of hatred against a tribe that is what you are doing and the next incitement from you will warrant a response that you will not like

Christistruth00:



Hurry up I am still waiting for the DSS you went to Call

obynzo:


Post another inciteful comment first then you would know that you can be tracked easily
