christistruth01: The bolded is another conjectural crap manufactured by the western Nigeria regional gazette of 1967. After the initial operations of January 15, 1966, the only officer who saw Ironsi was Maj. Don Okafor who traced Ironsi back to brigade of guards which he, Okafor, commanded. Unfortunately, Ironsi has taken over the command of Brigade of guards and ordered the soldiers to shoot any soldier on sight including the brigade of guard's commander. Don Okafor had to pitch a gun battle with the elements of brigade of guards in order to escape alive. When news broke Ironsi had regained the command of a military unit, Ifeajuna panicked and even ran to Ghana. |

Idiko1: Now kindly list the Ethnic groups of those murdered in the Coup beside the Ethnic groups of the Soldiers that murdered them Then Remember that Gen Ironsi of Umuahia was the head of the Army and was responsible for providing adequate security and protection for those murdered in the Coup How could Lt col Yakubu Pam have tipped off Gen Ironsi when it was Gen Ironsi himself that authorised the Changing of Gen Ademuleguns loyal guards in the middle of the night before he was murdered? Gen Ironsi was unconstitutionally Forcefully taking over Power and refusing to Put the Coup Plotters on Trial while he made sure Adaka Boro was sentenced to death almost immediately for the Niger Delta Rebellion Gen Ironsi even promoted one of the Coup Plotters Which was in detention Not to talk of Gen Ironsi’s abolishing of the Regional Autonomy Which had taken years to negotiate and establish before Independence Lt Col Yakubu Pam who was a Northern Christian was Slaughtered by Anuforo despite all his Pleading Yakubu Pam was the Army’s adjutant general he didn’t even have any fighting formations under him Gen Ironsi was part of the Coup but only pretended to be unaware of it Major John Obienu that helped Ironsi to hijack the Coup was part of the Original Coup Plotters Lt col Pam phoned Gen Ironsi for help, but was ignored by Ironsi and no help was sent to Pam’s home until Gowon got there Of his own accord about 4 hours after Pam called Ironsi before he had been taken away and murdered That was why Mrs Pam confronted Ironsi later and accused him of being part of the Coup that killed her Husband https://www.legit.ng/1082685-january-15-1966-coup-discussions-lt-col-pam-murderers.html

So the whole Nigeria is lying on Igbos and victimizing Igbos falsely? That’s a lie and we know Igbo’s planned that coup to seize power. It was a coup within a coup. The other officers who were not Igbo did not realize it was a set up to avoid attention that it was an Igbo coup from Igbo officers like Ironsi down to Ifeajuna. But people are not stup*id. After a while they begin to see something is not adding up. When there was resistance to kill Igbo elite. Unegbe is not an Igbo name but Kogi. I know some people with that name. By the way, your people, regular people in the north OWNED the coup! Also in the West! They were mocking Westerners and Northerners about how their leaders were slaughtered. Your parents did not tell you that? In fact they were so proud of the coup that even ordinary Igbo traders felt like they had achieved so much until other tribes fought back! Now you are trying to turn history on its head. You people think you are so cunning and everybody else is a fo*ol. Igbo’s should be the ones apologizing for destroying Nigeria because of greed! No one in this country is smarter than they other. Silence and passiveness does not mean a people cannot be vicious and wicked! 3 Likes |

christistruth01: Lt. Col. James Yakubu Pam was not the army’s Quarter Master General, this position belonged to Lt. Col. Arthur Unegbe. Lt. Col. James Yakubu Pam was the Adjutant-General. However, Pam's sin started when he commanded the fifth battalion in Kano and was tasked to deal with Tiv riot of 1964. At the same time, C. C. Anuforo was the commander of first Recce, Kaduna. Be mindful that James was a Biron and his younger brother, police ASP was ADC to Aguiyi Ironsi. |

A coup that saw many officers from the two major tribes killed ruthlessly sparing only the ones of Igbo extraction is what? A coup that led to the removal of a Fulani democratic leader to install Aguiyi Ironsi, an ibo man from Abia, should be called what? A Fulani coup? 3 Likes |

Idiko1: After the coup Ironsi embarked on a Misinformation Campaign to Cover up the True details of the coup Read let “ Truth be told “ by david Muffet” Can you believe that Ojukwu was in Kaduna during the time Sardauna and Ademulegun and their wives were assassinated ? Col Sodeindes Wife even said she saw Ojukwu talking to Soldiers on Ademuleguns Staircase when she had gone to Report her Husbands death to Ademulegun She then hid herself because she found the scene to be very Suspicious Little did she know that Ademulegun himself and his wife had already been assassinated too The British declassified Papers also Confirmed that Ojukwu had returned to the Kano Battalion that he Commanded from Kaduna at 8 am on the Morning of the coup Ambassador Fafowora in his book “ lest I forget “even went further to say that on. his way to London that day when the Plane stopped at Kano to pick passengers , Ojukwu and his Soldiers went on Board and arrested a man who they thought was Prime Minister Balewa’s brother What does that tell you? Ojukwu and Ironsi were part of the coup Ironsi and Ojukwu were part of the coup that was why azikiwe was warned to escape but the coup plotters insisted on waiting for Sardauna to return from Saudi Arabia 2 days earlier before Carrying out the coup https://dailytrust.com/amp/british-intelligence-reports-on-how-ironsi-took-over-3 Ojukwu arrested and took a man off the London bound Aeroplane at Kano because he thought he was Prime Minister Balewa's Brother Azikiwe sent a telegram to Gen Ironsi from London on the 16th of January addressing Ironsi as the Head of State Ironsi didn't take over Power until the following day That meant azikiwe already knew of the Plan by Ironsi to take Power before it happened It was the British Commonwealth Office from where Miss Emery who was azikiwe's Secretary had sent the telegram that informed azikiwe that Dipcherma the Northern Minister of Transport was acting in Balewa's Place as Head of the Rump Cabinet and not Gen Ironsi and that it would be a good idea to resend the telegram to Dipcherma instead Below is the Video of azikiwe on the day Azikiwe left for his Medical Vacation in October 1965 he was well enough to inspect a guard of honour and take the Salute So why didn't he attended the Commonwealth leaders Conference which held in Lagos 2 days before the Jan 15th 1966 coup ? Azikiwe definitely knew what was coming and he knew it was going to be very bloody https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmCb3EtjsDE 2 Likes

christistruth01: I cannot say if Ojukwu was in Kaduna however Kaduna was the seat of the First Brigade HQ was included Fifth Battalion, Kano which Ojukwu commanded. Only a fool who has not been on parade ground would believe that CO of Fifth Battalion would leave his seat at battalion HQ during coup atmosphere to search a plane when nobody knows who belongs to the group of putschists. I guess the scene reported by the Yoruba is not the one which involved Major James Olusegun Obasanjo who was matched off the plane by Lt. Ike Nwachukwu, the than ADC to Lt Col Ojukwu at Fifth Battalion in Kano. |

Penguin2: Forget the hypocrites. With the first coup, they will remember that Nzeogwu is an Igbo man, in their desperation to tag it "Igbo coup" But if it is not the first coup, they will start calling Nzeogwu Niger Delta, South South, Anioma, and denying he is Igbo The Igbos of Delta State are only Igbos with the first coup. |

Idiko1: Do you know what Gen Ironsi said to his Son Thomas as he hid him in a Cupboard before he was led to his death by Northern Soldiers. “ do not Revenge” look after your mother Geb Ironsi knew what he had done and didn’t bother to explain his innocence to his own Son The Painful thing about Ironsi was that he was such a Jovial easy going man that you knew that It could only have been over ambitious NCNC Politicians that pressurised And pushed him into what he did Just looking at Ironsi you could tell he was the type of man more Comfortable in his wife’s arms and surrounded by his Children than with Nigeria’s Political Schemings And Power Calculations I am very sure that Ironsi regretted what he had done especially to his Comrades but it was already too late The Northern Soldiers were already seathing with rage at the murder of their leaders and the only way Ironsi could have got out of it was by Calling for Elections and resigning from the Army after putting the killers on trial but he couldn’t put them on trial because a Ifeajuna and Capt Orji would have roped Ironsi in not to talk of that heartless Anuforo Sani Bello who was Gen Ironsi’s ADC And a Northerner from Niger State actually believed that Gen Ironsi had so much gentleness in him that he actually had what it took to be an outstanding Leader if he had not surrounded himself with Tribalists as his advisers Gen Ironsi was just a simple man and Military Admin Officer that was consumed by Nigeria’s.
