It is the 10th wonder of the world that ipob are licking the butts of the evil genius, I never believed a day like this will ever come but it is interesting that we are alive to witness this. IBB has even made his remaining days on earth more distasteful, he thought that if he could buy over some section of the country by making them feel good about the atrocities they committed against other regions, he would have dribbled his way through among Nigerians but he would even be regretting more now as his last days draws nearer.

On Election Annulment; he says he wasn't aware when Abacha announced the annulment grin

On why he did not fire Abacha; he says if he did, it might cause chaos or civil war grin

On the death of Dele Giwa; he says it was the media trying to blackmail his Government grin

On the murder of Vatsa; he said it was the military panel that recommended his death penalty and there was nothing he could have done grin

On the coup; he says "Those who argued that the original intention of the coup plotters was anything but ethnic refer to the fact that the initial purpose of the plotters was to release Chief Obafemi Awolowo from prison."

Like the Maradona that he is, he says "those who argued", he didn't say it was a fact, he didn't say it was his own opinion but he says "those". But ipob are jumping around quoting IBB ignorantly. This is why people called him the Maradona, very deceptive individual.
That assumption that Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo GCFR SAN was going to be released from prison by the highly irresponsible January 1966 "school boy" coup plotters and then installed as Nigeria's new political leader is historically false, totally idiotic and an afterthought! Awolowo would have CLEARLY rejected the offer. Period.

After, the January 1966 coup plotters (led by Ifeajuna and others) had brutally killed a lot of regional politicians such as Sir. Ahmadu Bello, Sir. Tafawa Balewa, Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh of Itsekiriland, and several senior and junior military officers from the Northern Region and Western Region, WITHOUT assassinating any officer OR politician from the Eastern Region, there is absolutely NO WAY Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, (A London School of Economics and Political Science law graduate, who was framed up by the Balewa/Zik political alliance and wrongly jailed alongside Pa Ayo Adebanjo, Pa Anthony Enahoro and other great leaders of the Action Group) would have allowed himself to be released from prison and then installed as Nigeria's new leader after the killings of those men and women because the Northern Region would have launched reprisal attacks and killed Awolowo as well thinking him to be part of the coup plotters.

Besides, when Aguiyi Ironsi illegally got into power thereby further entrenching the belief in the psyche of other Nigerians that the coup of January 1966 was an Igbo coup that was hijacked by the Igbos to dominate other Nigerians, WHY didn't he release Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, Pa Anthony Enahoro and other innocent leaders in jail until General Yakubu Gowon's administration did it?

The Edo State-born, former Newswatch and New York Times investigative journalist, Dele Giwa's death via the FIRST EVER of its kind parcel bomb assassination in 1986 in his off Allen Avenue residence in Ikeja, Lagos was clearly a state-sponsored military intelligence kind of operation by the dictatorship to silence him from his investigative journalism which was spot on unlike the toxic nonsense and guessworks you have from younger wannabes like Hundeyin and others that lack bite and credibility.

Any idea how many comments you've made on this topic since IBB released his book?

Obsession is a mental disorder, incase you don't know. Don't make this about IBB who you had no issues with until he confirmed what had been in the public space. It is also not about Ademoyega, a 1966 coup plotters either.

But the truth is like an eternal lamp. It lives longer than those determined to hide it.

Odinkalu should have specified where the lies are in Babangida's book; not the blanket "full of lies."

Same difference.
The dead can not defend themselves.
But you are alive (at least physically, don't know about mental capacity though) so come up with your evidence.
How can someone asked this when we all knew when Babangida was the head of states. If you are 2,000 product you need to read book of histories .

About the coup he said before. Infact he’s one of the fine Military personnel that went on to say the it was perceived as an Igbo coup because it failed in west. It was a half victory coup and among the plotters, 2 Yoruba officers is part of the plotters Nzeugo Kaduna is from delta Igbo I.E from Bendel

Only those children of nowadays who were not born then or still very small during the IBB regime will believe the nonsense he wrote.
There is no single truth in all he wrote.

I watched IBB eldest son(former union bank CEO/MD) in an interview with channel TV some years ago, where the guy said his father cannot give any reason to the reason why he annulled 1993 election...that the said annulled election hunt the entire IBB family in their everyday activities.

All I sees in IBB book is that he kept pressing our unheal wound by putting up another lies like he use to do on those days.

IBB name can never be resumed.

They should write the truth about what they called or alleged lies.
However, why are they quite all this years?

Even under presidential system it cannot happen not to talk of Military regime, what a useless lie.
Abacha announced without your consent.
Military should strip him of everything including being a recruit self.

There are many lies and deceits.

I haven’t read the book but many lies and deceits have been highlighted by those who have.

Lie:
1). He says Awolowo was annoyed at him for banning old politicians in sept 1987. However Awolowo had died in May 1987 months before the decree was enacted.

If you scroll through Twitter the lies in the book are being exposed every hour.

I am no fan of Odinkalu but everybody who was around when Babangida was head of state knows the man is incapable of honestly. He is not called Maradona, the dribbler, evil genius for nothing!

Are you guys saying,IBB doesn't have right to say his own truth. Because he was a liar,in your head? If he had implicated the Igbo's now,all this talks, won't come out ooo,but since the table has turned, everybody wants to bash ", Igbo's" again.

It is well
