LagosOrigin:
This man like Peter Obi die
He's the Second in command of the OBIdient movement after Obasanjo.

He even committed some huge amount of money to deliver Obi in Taraba,Adamawa and Nassarawa states.

But I don't know his position now.

Hope Obi maintained the trajectory of such useful relationship(s).

Blame Nnzeogu for the first coup in Nigeria that killed the then prime minister which happened to be from North. Oh where you thinking the north will not react? Dey play

It is so absurd to blame Danjuma and co without blaming the man from your region who did first coup in Nigeria, and killing the northerners who were in position so it could pave way for Ironsi

HBD Sir! One of the blessed generals of his class. This man dashed 5b to the Anglican church in Lagos some years back. In 2008 he sold his one of his oil wells for 1 billion dollars and said he didn't know what to do with the money.

The two (2) ruthless military officers who are recorded to have pulled the cleanest "HIT" on Government in Nigeria history are Major. Kaduna Nzeogwu and Lt. Gen T.Y Danjuma.

It was recorded that Major Kaduna Nzeogwu replicated the mordern day " James Bond" in the "Operation Danmisa" that captured the Northern region and saw him personally executing the capture and eliminating of Sir. Ahmadu Bello, Col. Ademulegun, and other senior officers located in Northern Nigeria. He went in the Sarudana's apartment alone with a pistol and grenade.

Lt. Gen. T.Y Danjuma (Rtd) led a coup that resulted in the elimination of his direct boss whom he served as his Principal Staff Officer (PSO). Similarly like Nzeogwu, after the Ibadan residence of Lt. Col. Adekunle Fajuyi had been surrounded by the Lt. T.Y Danjuma boys and NCOs, Danjuma walked into the residence where Major General Aguyi Ironsi took cover, He held his service rifle and grenade got the Supreme Leader (Aguyi Ironsi) to surrender and move him out of the Government House where we was eventually executed by his NCOs.

Lt. Gen T.Y Danjuma (Rtd) became the rendezvous de-facto Chief Adviser of subsequent coups and counter coups that happened in Nigeria.

He remains one of the boldest and ruthless marksman in the Military history of Nigeria.
Major Kaduna Nzeogwu did not do anything heroic because he only betrayed and murdered his benefactor and his wife.
Major. Kaduna Nzeogwu was raised by late Sir Ahmadu Bello and he had been entering the house and mixing with the family of Sir. Ahmadu Bello long before he entered the army. This is because Nzougwu's father was a gardener in Ahmadu Bello's house and he was well treated. It was Sir Ahmadu Bello that took Chukwuma Nzougwu as a son and put him in the army after he had northernised the young man. Chukuwuma Nzougwu on Ahmadu Bello's request used a northern slot to enter the army.

That singular betrayer by the Nzougwu will forever haunt the Igbos as no northerner will ever trust the Igbos again

In a row, this is the second time you will put up a combative, vague, myopic and one-sided account of history especially that of Nigeria.

If you are ignorant you can apply restrain and if not I will assist you with a simple block button from my end.

Major Kaduna Chukwuma Nzeogwu is not Igbo. He is from present day Delta State.

Secondly, He was the first ever indigenous Head of Nigerian Military Intelligence who was handed-over to classified documents by the British.

He uncovered the Truth behind the imprisonment of Chief Obafemi Awolowo in the " Western Nigerian Crisis" and also got intelligence on the intention to introduce Islamization and Sharia law all over Nigeria with specific dates i.e 16th January, 1966.

The Chief Promoter was the Sarudana then as he had publicly boasted about it in campaigns and public outings.

In the account of "Why we struck" by Major Ademoyega, they had to move-in to prevent the total implementation of Sharia all over Nigeria since there was a date attached.

Nzeogwu was an intelligence officer and had his own role. He had intelligence on all principal actors since he was in charge.

Fact remains that Nzougwu murdered his benefactor and his wife using his personal knowledge.
Why did Nzougwu murder the wife of Ahmadu Bello in cold blood because that woman was not involved in politics in any way. This same woman he used to go to that same house and she would cook and feed him when he was younger.

Though Nzougwu is from Delta, he identified as Igbo and he was recruited by the Igbo officers to partake in the coup based on two reasons.
1) Ahmadu Bello trusted him 100% because Ahmadu Bello had already adopted him which made him have access to Ahmadu Bello easily.
2) He spoke Hausa fluently and he was positioned strategically.

Things you made up in your brain.
1) Nzougwu had no link with Awolowo
2) Nzougwu never mentioned anything about Sharia
3) Ademoyega had nothing against Sharia in his book

It was a war situation Murtala was doing his job as an army officer protecting the indivisibility of Nigeria
Only Igbos see Murtala as a bad person and their points made no sense as Biafran Army were killing Nigerian soldiers but they expected Murtala Mohammed to fold his arms and not defend himself and allow Biafran soldier to come and kill him.

Murtala Muhammed's only crime was that he was smatter, more intelligent and had more dexterity than the Biafran soldiers v which lead him to winning them in battles

Thank God you acknowledged I manufactured it from my brain, which I thank God I have.

Nigeria History is clear and it's also verifiable with books and live accounts.

What you are very ignorant about is that Kaduna Nzeogwu was particular and sympathetic towards Obafemi Awolowo, infact Capt. Nwobushi who was amongst the Jan 66' plotters revealed that they were jealous of the rapid developments in the southwest led by Awolowo.

Kaduna Nzeogwu saw all the documents linked to the imprisonment of Awolowo so he was convinced.

The major reason for the coup as revealed in the Kola Alapinni's Police Investigation & Why we struck was the alleged intention of the Sarudana of Sokoto's Islamization of Nigeria.

You are free to your entitled opinion. Have a productive day !
