You are right. One of the reasons Egypt is building a new capital from ground up is to prevent what happened that led to regime change. A way to protect future governments.

Nigeria did something similar when we moved the capital city from Lagos to Abuja. It was a way to shield governments from coups and the likes.

It kind of worked though as Nigeria has only experienced one coup since moving the capital to Abuja

Biodun556:
People have been asking whether Nigeria can build such administrative capital like Egypt but they forgot that Abuja was a city built from the scratch. There are picture evidence that Abuja was a forest calved out from Kogi and other States.

Egypt Administrative capital was not built for economic returns. It was built to shield the military government in a civilian cloth from revolution and mass protest reason it was hurriedly packaged. There were revolutions and canter revolution in Egypt as result of mass protest and culminated in the death of thousands of people between 2010 and 2015, reason why there is need to shield the present government from the masses.

The new administrative capital was financed with loan compare with Eko Atlantic that is private investment driven.

Which is more amazing between a city that is built on the desert and the one that rose from Atlantic Ocean?

So, Nigeria has done what Egypt did decades ago and still doing it now.

What coup was that?

Anything done by foreigners, no matter how basic, will be hyped to heaven.

A government builds a gutter in Sudan - Dem dem: "Wow, see good governance! Nigeria could never."
Who cursed Naija?

A state government builds a light rail in Naija -Dem dem: "Shey na rail we go chop? Their mates are building flying rail in Japan. They are pushing the rail."

Thrice accursed people, dem.

Oga in the Oputa panel Adisa said indeed a coup was planned. Let us stop the lies, it is just like Oshiomhole attacking Humphrey Nwosu on June 12 whereas Oshiomhole was Pascal Bafiyau's deputy president of NLC when the same NLC refused to support Abiola and distanced themselves from June 12 when abiola picked Kingibe as his running mate over Bafiyau. Now years later the same Oshiomole is trying to twist history with lies. The only labor union that stood by June 12 was NUPENG whose secretary Frank Kokori was jailed by Abacha.

If you have ever travelled outside Nigeria, you will understand that our standard is damn low.

coup is a coup, successful or not, just like election in democracy, maybe fair or not.

Lifestone:
Coup na coup. Adisa confirmed it was a coup whether it failed is not material

Keep giving yourself potential hope. Nigeria is a failure and have been a failure for over 60 years. Quran reading leaders have taken the country to year 225.


Nigerian own does not have reliable electricity. That Egyptian hurriedly built city, has reliable electricity than Nigeria can ever imagine.

A country without electricity is a useless archaic country. Everything no be generator alone. This is why, an igbo nation will go all in in electricity production, mastery, and advancement. Future igbos will not know what it is to not have mass electricity. Even the main roads will have cheap and safe electricity to be charging cars as you are moving or parked.

OKOATA:
Ordinary roads by town planning we can't achieve here. With the mediocre roads that's filled everywhere we don't know how to construct like the foreigners and that's the truth. If we can't get roads right we can't get construction of houses right too.

how can you tell a foreigner that lekki costliest residential area in Nigeria don't shower or cook with their water?do you want me to lie to the world that Nigerians are enjoying 24/7 electricity? Please there nothing to celebrate here in Nigeria

OAFMods:
When you say we i hope that include all Igbo governors giverning any state n not just Tinubu n Sanwolu. You need to state this clearly so that your Igbo tribesmen understand that your entire Igbo tribe is part n parcel of the failure you are wailing about.

I have NO time for needless propaganda here and will NOT discuss this topic again as I have limited time to focus on what is historically CLEAR with a digital trail.

You have to get history in the right context here. The progessive print and electronic media back in the late 1990s clearly referred to that alleged Diya coup as a "phantom coup" for very obvious reasons. If you had carefully read my original post properly, you would have understood me better and you are also having a convo with a man who vividly witnessed these horrendous events back in the 1990s.

A "phantom military coup" was planned from within Abacha's gang to test the loyalty of his real and perceived opponents. This is what General Adisa was referring to because he thought a real coup plot was being planned. NO real military coup took place. Get this clearly for posterity sake!

General Olusegun Obasanjo, General Shehu Yar'Adua (former President Umaru Yar'Adua's older brother) and many innocent people were framed up by Abacha's military dictatorship and imprisoned just to get rid of people who spoke out against his government.
Femi Falana, Olisa Agbakoba, the fearless Mrs Ayo Obe, Sen. Shehu Sani, several innocent journalists, students and more were framed up by Abacha's goons. A bomb was planted to explode at Allen Avenue junction where a bus carrying military men was passing by to incite the military men further against the pro-democratic movement. A lot was done by Abacha's evil "Strike Force" team to frame people up, assassinate and bomb several high-profile people to death such as Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, the bombing to death of both Bagauda Kaltho and the Chief Security Officer of Murtala Muhammed International Airport, the deadly assassination of Chief Olu Onagoruwa's son, the deadly attempt by Sergeant Rogers and the Strike Force military intelligence to kill Chief Alex Ibru the founder of Guardian newspaper (who was seriously injured and had to undergo a major surgery to save his life), and Chief Abraham Adesanya (the iconic NADECO boss who bravely NEVER left Nigeria on exile to avoid being killed) whose vehicle was shot multiple times at close range but the bullets didn't kill him. Barnabas Jabila (aka Sergeant Rogers) confessed to taking part in these operations in a long video that is still online.

A word is enough for the wise. I will end this topic and convo right here.

You are wasting your time explaining what is fact to a hipeless bigot that chose ro ruin his pathetuc life on NL. Imagine Diya orchestrated a coup n no single soul was shot or killed.
