owobokiri:So you want military rule where there no checks and balances. I don't think you have experienced military rule before. I will never support any coup in Nigeria |

On what planet is a coup an overt attempt to overthrow a government? So, the coup plotters will announce on TV that they're planning a coup? Lolz. Few things are as covert as planning a coup. |

Toruibestate:the current governors are from the state. Do they care about the pain of the people they govern? People that are embezzling money, buy SUV for traditional rullers and associates, owing salaries and building mediocre projects. Abeg rest |

owobokiri:Its called absolute monarchial rule and it was what existed even across Europe that saw to the Renaissance era of great human development. The Holy Roman Empire that was headquartered in Bavaria was the height of monarchies and it gave the world the greatest scientific and artistic breakthroughs. The arts and architecture of that era are still standing today and considered as tourist traps. Back home we had the Bini Empire whose capital Benin was adjudged by Portogesse explorers to be the best planned city state with a highly complex and civilized order that saw to zero crime and high prosperity rates among its people. Its a system of governance that you will never be able to replicate . How sad. |

lordm:I am sure I experienced more military rule in this country more than you. And I can assure you that what we have now is worse than some "military rules".. Abacha was not this ethnically vindictive. He was from Kano. He never destroyed Yoruba businesses in Kano because someone said that Sabon Garri is a "No Mans Land".. You wake up one morning, and you take the police and the military to help you bulldoze other peoples buildings and property, simply because they are of a different ethnic stock. Then you turn around and try to use a laughable Pro democracy argument to maintain peace! How clever of you!? "Worst democracy is better than the best military rule" is a sterile rant! How can you say that Bola Tinubu or Muhammadu Buhari were/is better than Jerry Rawlings, Thomas Sankara or Muamar Gaddafi? |

DomPerignon:Please sorry to ask , who or what will disintegrate Nigeria, I am asking because as a history student and someone familiar with coups in Africa there is virtually no disintegration threat Is it that the yorubas will pick up arms and fight for independence. Or you mean yorubas will pick up arms and fight to reverse the coup . Or that external parties will fight on the behalf of yorubas. |

lordm:You don't know these people. They know that our current democratic system can never get them to Aso Rock. They have been demanding for a coup since a Yoruba man won the elections and in their usual bitter envious mode ,want to truncate the system . They will prefer military rule than have a Yoruba who was elected above their last hope remain President. A Yoruba man beating their own in a national electoral contest only reinforces to them that Yorubas are more accepted across Nigeria than them. They are angry because the last election showed them that they are still on probation from the madness of Jan 15 and the civil war they caused due to their greed and covetousness . Yoruba hatred in them is not because they hate Yorubas per se even though they do, it's a fallout of being reminded that Nigerians still don't trust them to head the presidency. |

DomPerignon:Please sorry to ask , who or what will disintegrate Nigeria, I am asking because as a history student and someone somewhat familiar with coups in Africa there is virtually no disintegration threat noticeable in other places where coup succeeded . Is it that the yorubas will pick up arms and fight for independence. Or you mean yorubas will pick up arms and fight to reverse the coup . Or that external parties will fight on the behalf of yorubas. |

kettykin:I can tell you that the only reason Nigeria is still in existence is because the Yoruba are still keyed into it. The day they lose interest that is the day they leave and no one can stop them. You should recall how swiftly the government acted on Igboho when he came out with his Oduduwa nation movement. Contrast that with you Biafra groups whom govt was slow to act upon because the govt knew it was all a fake movement. Govt only acted on your ipob when they began being a nuisance and threat to public order. |

Sowore is just churning out back to back to back fake news. If he got one information, he will add ten of his own to it to embellish it. This same fake news said Tinubu was planning to extend Yakubu Mahmood's tenure as INEC Chairman but fear of protests and criticism made him drop the idea ![]() |

Brenbentondiaz:Back in 1965, our then intelligence services knew that there was a coup, and warned the leadership then, but nothing was done, and we know the result. A lot of Nigerians also forget that in 1982, several people, both army and civillian were arrested for a planned coup. NSO basically infiltrated them and found them out before they could procced. Even now, we have organisations like the DMI and the DSS that can probably sniff out plans for a coup Having said that, most nigerians probably would be happy with a coup. But the thing is, from past experience, millitary rule always turns out to be a dissapointment. |

Putindbutt:There is difference between a failed coup and coup planning. Mooting the idea by discussing it with the second person is already seen as planning, how serious it is depends on the stage of discussion. The public can only be affected when it has been attempted, not when the perpetrators are still planning |
| Re: Defence Intelligence Detains Brig Gen Over Alleged Coup Plot To Overthrow Tinubu by kettykin: 11:54am On Oct 18, 2025 |
DomPerignon:Go and read about operation Wetie and how long it took for the military and police to use brute force to restore order. If Nzeogwu and co weren't so foolish and naive ,the south west would have been gone forever. Let's watch events unfold closely |

lordm:which democracy you must be listening to the con artist ruling Nigeria now to think like this, it is very evident from the performance of these crop of failed politicians since 1999 that this your assertion is totally false when you compare the achievements of both types of governance side by side, the military trump the civilians by a very wide margin Even in freedom, can you protests under Tinubu now but even under Abacha there were protest |
