Believeintruth:
Oga you are not being sensible. You are only showing desperation and clutching at straws now that a northerner has clarified that it was never an Igbo coup.
The faftbis this Nzeogwu knew that it was never an Igbo coup he was angry that it was bungled in Lagos. Mind you in the same.Lagos an Igbo senior officer was killed by a fellow Igbo officer. This statement has also been confirmed by IBB in his book.
So because IBB said it, it is fact?
Nzeogwu was not among the original plotters of the coup, he was used! Which Igbo senior officer was killed in the coup in lagos?

Nothing but truth ojukwu wasn't even aware of the coup he was forced to declare biafra to defend and preserve the lives of igbos when gowon couldn't protect igbos that were been massacred all over nigeria. The narrative of an Igbo coup has been spread and propagated by bigots and empty headed, weak and unpopular politicians who use it to win every presidential election in nigeria they have interests in these empty politicians like buhari and tinibu sponsor these narrative during election seasons because they have absolutely nothing else to use against the igbos.
Ojukwu was well aware of the coup. For some reasons, he decided not to participate. Even Azikiwe was in on the whole thing.

Nigerian propaganda doesn't sound sweet unless the Igbos are involved. Thank you, Rufai and IBB, for clarifying the Igbo coup nonsense. A country of stupid people who keep referring to what happened almost 60 years ago as to why it has remained a shithole country.
Wetin Rufai clarify for you? He just reechoed what IBB said. I wonder why he is not asking IBB for proof, the same way he’s been asking for proof of USAID funding boko haram! cool

I've never heard of a Yoruba or fulani coup buy once it involves igbos in active roles u cry igbo coup to politicise it and spread hate?
Igbo couple because Igbo killed non-Igbos.

Other coup carried out by your fellow power hungry tribe,fulani was a counter coup and fulani vs fulani coup.

There are hundreds of accounts of the first coup,but some mad people want us to only believe IBB account.
How old was even IBB then?!

You're in denial, but it's fine.
Thanks . But at the end it was not an Igbo coup.

And it was wrong anyway. The coupists should have left the democratic government alone. If they wanted to change things, na to resign and go into politics.

Instead we got 4 years of crisis.

You can forgive the so called bastards, bcoz most of them were not even born during IBB's time as president to understand who they're dealing with. How do you then expect them to understand the intricacies of the 1966 coup plot?

What you have just posted shows the exact opposite to your lead statement:



What IBB said here, in fact, means that the coup may not have sincerely started out as an Igbo coup, but it became one. Stop the lies.
It was just like the last End SARS, the motive was clear until Igbos hijacked it to launch attacks on their perceived political adversaries like Tinubu

You're still in denial, but it's fine.

The fact is that if you continue to tell yourself a lie, it would become your belief, your truth.
It's called the "illusory truth effect" in psychology.

If you and your Igbo friends want to fight tribal war,.continue.

You should remember that you have far more in common than you guys think.

BafanaBafana:
Well, the coup was planned by Igbo politicians and soldiers, carried out by them (even though few mumu soldiers from other tribes were recruited into it thinking it was a revolution), the victims targeted were soldiers and politicians from other tribes. The people who took power after the coup were Igbo.

Even Nzeogwu, one of those who thought it was a revolution mentioned that the coup was tribalistic.

And in their usual fashion, Igbos gloated, celebrated and made fun of northerners after the coup.

Those are the facts. If you like you can give it any name you like.
Don’t you see the same scenario replaying today? Igbo masses celebrating Igbo appointment to office but don’t know the appointment doesn’t give a rats ass about them. Same for other tribes. It’s always been the elites vs masses. It was an elitist war not tribal, always will be.

A lot of countries have fared worse and they are still up and running . I don’t think it will ever happen . Too integrated to breakup . I believe things will get worse then we will spring back .

You are on your own,if you don't listen to dramatis personae.

Maybe, you are bereft of education to understand the narratives about the coup.

The beneficiaries of coups in Nigeria had nothing to do with names but rather titles. They were usually the highest ranking surviving officers
Why was Nnamdi Azikwe not part of the victim ? Why did aguiyi irosi didn't judge the coup plotter as expected by the masses ?

Obasanjo - west- not igbo coup
Ademoyega - west - not igbo coup
IBB - north - not igbo coup
Ojukwu - East - not igbo coup
Effiong - south - not igbo coup


All these men are old and some in the afterlife.

You that is still yet to join the other world keep strangling with lies when the truth is out.

It won't change anything but only effect you
Don't mind them jaare.

No amount of talks will convince them. And their tribalistic mindsets is the reason Nigeria is still crawling. No love. No development.

Emancipate yourself from hatred and bigotry against the Igbos. The person who fought and experienced the war, told the truth about the war, but no, you are being blinded by your sheer hatred and bigotry against the Igbo.

Had it been the narrative on ground is the opposite, he'll automatically be a saint to you guys.

Truth is bitter, so kiss the truth.
Re: There Was No Igbo Coup - Rufai Oseni by Kewekubosineh: 12:36pm On Feb 22, 2025
Thank you, Rufai Oseni, for being forthright and different from the motley crowd who believes 1966 coup was Igbo Putsh.

With many like you around, there is still hope for the shit hole groping like a ship in the Adriatic sea!

I tell you this for free. The Nigerian tribal bigotry is worse than the hate the devil has for man... (That is if the devil ever existed).
It's now clear that there was no Igbo coup but people no gree. Which kind wickedness be dis?

Gibson Jalo is from Adamawa, he was never part of the coup.
The coup was an Igbo agenda. They were worried about how powerful Ahmadu Bello was. It didn't sit well with them that Azikiwe was just a figure head.
Go and read please
