Alright then, stay divided and remain exploited.

By the way, a Yoruba man has never been a governor in the South East.

An Igbo man has never been a governor in the South West.

Yet the standard of living in either regions is abysmal, the people can’t unite at ward level or local government level or at state level to hold their leaders accountable.

Forget it, tribalism is all smokes and mirrors perpetuated by the elites to keep y’all in bondage.
Tribalism will continue until Nigeria dies and we all go our separate ways..
Ndiigbo will teach Nigerians what tribalism is all about and every iota of Igbo hate will be matched with even greater hate towards those exhibiting it.

We will all be fine. We will wait out Nigeria.

Yes!.
The death of Balewa, etc led to cascade of events that threw Gowon to power.
Why should Gowon care about the dead Balewa and co?
The Northern soldiers found no direct link between Ironsi and the coup plotters, they were just angry that he took too long in trying them..
But they were fully convinced that Fajuiyi was involved in the coup and trained the boys that carried the coup.
If they knew this, common sense tells me that they knew of Awolowo involvement but Awolowo was in far away East where they couldn't reach him as of this time, and by the time they had access to Awolowo, events had changed and they needed Awolowo help.
Common sense.

U re still a boy with ur reasoning and analysis.


Ironsi and fajiyuyi were best of friends in the millitary.


Ironsi actually sent those boys for special training in Ibadan prior to the coup.

Awolowo is in no capacity to order a millitary personnel.

Stop trying to twist the IBO coup debacle.

Nigerians knows the first coup was carried out by easterner to dominate others.

Awolowo was more than capable of planning a coup.
Infact he was in prison because he was caught planning a civilian coup to topple Balewa government.
Coker Commission found Awolowo guilty of not just financial misappropriation but also of "treasonable felony".

Awolowo was in later life also fingered in attempt to topple IBB government.
It was Jakande that ratted him out to IBB.

Awolowo was a man who throughout his life hatched plans to topple governments in power.

He had the antecedents.

And when you look at the identity of those killed in the Nzeogwu coup. They all had one thing in common! They were all Awolowo enemies at that point in time.

It's a case of a witch crying in the night and a child dying in the morning.

U ibo people are criminal minded and liers.


Same awolowo was release by Gowon , driven to his home ikenne by miritala Muhammed and finally made deputy to Gowon.

So awolowo will plan a coup and Gowon will not deem it fit to try him.

U S.E are BST.
The same Gowon that did not try all those that committed pogroms against Igbos in the north, you expect to go try Awolowo, when he was looking for an alliance with the west.

Planning coup was not new to Awolowo
1. Balewa, Ahmadu Bello and Akintola imprisoned Awolowo because he was planning a coup
2. Awolowo was to be installed as the president if the January 1966 coupists had succeeded. All his political opponents were killed in that coup, and all his political allies were spared.
3. During Babangida's tenure, Awolowo was also caught planning another coup. This led to his suicide, as he knew he couldn't rope in the usual Igbos into his devilish plans.

The sellouts will be handled in appropriate time by our nature.
Ndiigbo will wait out Nigeria. We will sit by the river banks long enough to see our enemies float by.

But while we wait, we will match hate for hate and propaganda for propaganda, we will not preach love to any group that wish us evil. We will wish and push evil to them too.

Jakande ratted him out to IBB, unfortunately there was no foolish Nzeogwu and co to get Ndiigbo involved, so he paid with his life after he accused Jakande of betraying him and laid useless ineffective curse on the man.
This is Yoruba history!

They got away with alot because our parents didn't take media serious.

He can't write about everything.
But we all know the truth about what transpired between Awolowo, Jakande and IBB.

Many Yoruba folks out of anger have written about all these. That Jakande was cursed by Awolowo is also a public knowledge in Yorubaland.

Just admit it, the days you controlled narratives in Nigeria through media is gone.
This Igbo generation will NEVER let you have that again!

Ladoke akintola a civilian confronted your ibo millitary might when they came to have him killed, he injured some ibo army officers, he never ran away, same with ahmadu bello.

That how you rate a man prowess and his tribe resilience to war or conflicts.

What did ibo general ojukwu, leaders zik, okpara do. They all bolted coward people.

Accounts showed that the coup killed all enemies of Awolowo, including Okotie Eboh who might have been in NCNC but was a staunch supporter and friend of Balewa.

In contrast the coup spared Awolowo and other members of NCNC who were in UPGA coalition with Awolowos AG.
Additionally, Fajuiyi was the one who trained the boys involved in the coup .
Revisionist
Re: Who Killed Adekunle Fajuyi The First Military Governor Of The Former Western~IBB by lawani(m):
Fajuyi was killed because he opposed and resisted the coup plotters. If he was not military governor he would not have been killed. There are some of the Yoruba coup plotter that lived till old age and wrote books. So why will the Northerners kill Fajuyi and leave them? He was killed because he was governor and he resisted. Reports say Murtala prostrated and begged him but he refused.
There is no proof that he participated in the coup and it is wrong to accuse him of such. Where is the proof? He was only unfortunate to be governor at the time. Again Yorubas that fully participated in the coup survived and wrote books so why Fajuyi in particular? He was killed because he stood by his boss because he chose the path of honor.
Then stop saying easterners planned coup for a westerner to lead the country. Are you using your minds at all? Can you plan coup for your competition to take over? Please endeavor to be using your minds. It is very naive indeed to be saying Awo was the mastermind of the Nzeogwu coup from inside prison. It does not make sense therefore stop saying it . I wonder how you pass exams. The coup plotters were mainly Igbos and were thereby Zik boys and one of them was even his cousin and Awo was not in the good book of Zik.
Why did the Yoruba not fight back? They were not in power. Power was shared between North and East until fight broke out between them. The Yoruba were in opposition and the army was answerable to the people in government. However after Awo was released from prison he was able to compel Northern soldiers to leave the west. Easterners killed Akintola in Ibadan and the Yoruba were not able to do anything. Northerners also killed Fajuyi in Ibadan and the Yoruba also did nothing. Being in opposition was really shitty

A lie Yorubas have told for long is he died defending Ironsi.

But the fact is Northerners killed Fajuyi together with Ironsi,instead of Yorubas to confront Hausafulanis for killing their brother, they changed the narrative that fajuyi asked Northerners to kill him too.

Does that even make sense?



But assuming it was Igbo soldiers that killed him, will you people believe he asked the Igbo soldiers to kill him?


Won't Yoruba ask questions like, even if he said you should kill him, must you kill him.
