“Igbo in the North were widely taunting their hosts on the loss of their leaders. Celestine Ukwu, a popular Igbo musician, released songs titled Ewu Ne Ba Akwa (Goats Are Crying) and others celebrating “Igbo power”, the “January Victory.” Posters, stickers, postcards, cartoons displaying the murdered Sardauna begging Major Nzeogwu at the gates of heaven or Balewa burning outright in pits of hell or Nzeogwu standing St. George-like on Sardauna, the defeated dragon, began to show up across Northern towns and cities. These provocations were so pervasive that they warranted the promulgation of Decree 44 of 1966 banning them”. Even Dr. Nnamdi Azikwe noted these atrocities in his The Origins of the Civil War: “Some Ibo elements, who were domiciled in Northern Nigeria taunted northerners by defaming their leaders through means of records or songs or pictures. They also published pamphlets and postcards, which displayed a peculiar representation of certain northerners, living or dead, in a manner likely to provoke disaffection.” These images and songs eventually led to the so-called pogroms/ethnic-cleansing/genocide, not the coup” - Chinue Achebe. 9 Likes 1 Share |

If majority of the coup plotters were Ibos and the victims of the coup non Ibos with an Ibo dictatorship that emerged from the coup and Ibos across Nigeria celebrating the coup as Ibo triumph over Nigeria , why are we debating the fact that the coup of Jan 15 was or is not an Ibo coup ? Even Chinue Achebe in his usual snake lying ways admitted in his book "There was a country" that Ibos celebrated the coup as an Ibo triumph but refused to admit that the events of Jan 15 being an Ibo coup and cause of the pogroms. Ask Chinue Achebe wherever he is now, if Ibos goading their northern hosts with such insensitive and provocative display did not do so because of the fallout of having an Ibo dictatorship following the Ibo bloody coup of Jan 15. 7 Likes |

BrodaBenad: Which Zik was a nationalist? The same zik that turned NCNC to Igbo party immediately after the death of its founder - Herbert Macaulay? Even the Camerounians had to opt out. The true nationalist and patriot was Herbert Macaulay and not the covetous Zik who abandoned his impoverished region and only interested in ruling the already prosperous SW. 8 Likes |
