The whole purpose of this thread is to spin ridiculous conspiracy theories.
Kindly explain what happened in the video sir. By not clarifying, you are also adding to the conspiracy theory.

Its easy to understand what played out.

Thiefnibuu is becoming desperate after being openly thrown under the bus by the North who he depends on for votes.

He brings in Gowon for a propaganda job, so they can circulate the tape in the North, hence the need for the General to speak Hausa.

But the old soldier was too wise for them and rejected their plot. grin

Even Thiefnibuu knows his days in that office are numbered.
You're actually correct

On Wednesday, February 21st, 2024, something surprising happened on TV. The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) was showing a live program with Yakubu Gowon, a former leader. At 5:30 pm, during the show, things got tense.

NTA asked Gowon to speak Hausa, a language he didn't want to use. Gowon is good at speaking English, which he preferred. But NTA kept insisting, even though Gowon said no. Then, without warning, NTA suddenly stopped the program. People watching were confused and upset. They went on social media to talk about it.

People are now talking about why this happened and if it was right. They want NTA to explain.

No, Gowon is not Hausa, he is from Plateau State.

Funny you mentioned Ben Bruce, seeing as how Silverbird was clearer than NTA after he was DG. There were allegations that he used the money for nta to build silverbird. They said that he would always buy 2 equipment, the substandard one would be for NTA while the modern one would be for silverbird, all on NTAs budget
Who are the they!?

Perhaps they hope to pass some message they wanted only the northerners to grab. In a multi-lingual nation, what can be worse than that?

How can NTA force a former military HOS to address the nation in the hausa language?
That's why most of our leaders sit tight and refuse to go.

If he was still head of state did you think that would have happened?

Sorry to say but nothing might happen, the northerners believe they own NTA, have you have heard the song they play before they read news?
The song sounds so northern like....

Look at the color of NTA logo, looks so like northern colors

Ben Bruce came and rebranded all that when he was DG of NTA, changed the logo and color to a fine logo with blue, then made NTA 24 hours, they even stopped playing that northern sound before the news, the camera and recording quality improved that NTA started winning awards and competing with private stations, people who even hated NTA started watching NTA because he brought in new programs too, guess what?

when he was removed as DG, they reversed almost everything he did, it was like they even went and brought the old cameras and started using because the picture quality became poor, the logo was changed back and the northern sound was now played before the news.

Till date NTA has remained like a relic channel, the only thing they kept was the 24 hours broadcast....
What do you expect from a region so backwards and archaic.

No pun in the bitter Truth
Re: NTA Cuts LIVE Program As Yakubu Gowon Refuses To Speak In Hausa (video) by Fedric209: 9:10pm On Feb 22, 2024
And some one in another trend said the north are the richest... Very funny..

The north only have access to political power.. remove Nigeria from the equation and u will see them collapse.. they mean no good for the nation.

they would have ended this banditery a long time ago, but they use it for their agenda plan.

He shouldn't have problem speaking Hausa then. Kanke and Kanam is gradually becoming like Wase.

I can bet you, 90% of Nigerians don't watch NTA, the most useless Television network. Who even get their time, Aboki destroy this country, and they're still bent on finish it, they should do quick and let us go our separate ways.
These guys with their old stone age archaic mentality are actually the main reason Nigeria is backward

I wonder how Mr. Gowon feels about the state of the same country that the British used him to "unite" by starving millions of innocent kids to death.

Does he suffer from PTSD or depression whenever he remembers how he broke the Aburi Accord or the traumatizing pictures of the starving Biafran kids?

May God help us live a life with less regrets so we can transition to the other side with that peace that comes to your soul when you remember that you spent your time on Earth fighting the right cause.
innocent kids ke, future terrorists and drug pushers

One of the leading cause of the nonsense we have going on.
Quite perplexing he's still alive.

Maybe he's had an epiphany. Realized the civil war was all for nothing. The northerners are very extreme and he wants no form of association. Until the west, east and south realize that the north is the only faction dragging us back, this country can't know peace.
Omo that region is extremely backwards in anything that has to do with tech advancement, educational and infrastructural development

Naaaaa, kanke is nothing like wase. FYI there is no any hausa speaking tribe in plateau. All the ethic groups in plateau have their language and hausa is none.

It's not about the BBC, it's about the NTA and you'll have to continue reading the thread to find out how.

(By the way, yes the BBC has studios in Nigeria. They've had for over 30 years).

I expect the presidency to sack and replace the entire management board of NTA immediately.. this is totally wrong and I condemn it in the strongest of terms.

Hausa is not the official language of Nigeria so nobody in NTA has right to force a former Military Head of State to address the nation in Hausa.

Whoever is heading that NTA deserves to be dehumanized and mercilessly beaten into coma by the Army. What rubbish.

The south, east and west are closely related if you check history books. They know this and continue to blindfold the elites from our ranks.

You're very observant but forgot to add. The NA logo , the naira with Injami on it and the relocation of the chapel at the state house by that ex normad
