People know average Yoruba will betray you anytime.

The fact this false story.



The man was killed together by ironsi by northern soldiers.

Instead of Yorubas to confront Northerners they changed the narrative that Fajuyi asked Northerners to kill him.
i am esan man from edo state, I have businesses in every region of Nigeria, an anambra man i housed in Adenta Ghana ran away with my savings in Ghana, I started my business at ifite awka but the indigenes conspired against me and because I was doing better than them in my business, they paid my landlord times five of my rent and asked him to evict me and he did thats how I found myself in Ibadan and Ibadan people showed me love like I was one of them.

That this story is false is something I won’t even argue with you because, if the son of aguyi ironsi himself said the man died because of his father who are you to say otherwise, you are not in the scheme of things, adieu. And this is my last response to you.

Gen Theophilus Danjuma has already confessed the Truth that they didn't want Fajuyi
Did he confess why they couldn't leave him after killing their target?
Was there shoot out in defending Ironsi?


Would you as a yoruba have believed if na Igbo soldiers killed him and tell you the same thing northern soldiers told you that Fajuyi asked them to kill him?


Answer Yes or No for the last question.

Igbophobia:
That Fajuyi 'elected ' to die for Aguiyi Ironsi is a lie concocted by the Lagos- Ibadan expresway media houses. Do you know why that lie was necessary? They didn't want any confrontation with the Fulani north at that time just as they wouldn't want it now that even the same Fulani are kidnapping and killing people in the SW.

Fajuyi was clearly marked for death by the coup-plotters. They even lied that their source was a palmwine tapper who witnessed the execution of both men. When the fact of the matter is that when the coupist first arrested Fajuyi who went dowstairs to find out what was happening, Fajuyi actively tried to negotiate for his life in a bid to sell Ironsi away.

Fajuyi was in the 'marked for death' list of the coup plotters especially because they suspected him to be a part of the January '66 coup because he was the convener of the course under which canopy the coup was hatched.

This country is a crime scene, not just because of the evil perpetrated daily in it but also the propaganda and lies used to cover the bloodshed and betrayals.

Just read this excerpt and tell me if such a man was not a target:
So many people don't know this truth you quoted. Where i disagree is that he tried to sell out ironsi as there are not evidence I know that alludes to that.

Since the colonial era, South East always working against the interest of South West, that commenced from Zik. Yoruba never expects any support from your side. Yoruba will continue to stand for you people, from Bishop Ajayi Crowther till now, we are still assisting your bloders.
The way you guys spew some falshoods ehnnnnn when did Ajayi do anything for igbos was it not JC Taylor that translated bible to igbo how is it possible that Ajayi Crowther who doesn't even know igbo vowels translate igbo to English. Also the political term south East existed after 1996 constitutional conference. The same M. I okpara took care of HID Awolowo When Awo went to prison is what you are saying igbos have worked against SW interest.

He wasn't involved in the previous coup and wasn't a target.


He died because he stood for ironsi!
Not true. Dig deeper. Nzeogwu practiced at night under his watch and that's why the counter coup plotters were suspicious

Why they find it to believe cos they can't do same. it is strange to them. kudos to the late general Fajuyi.
Point of correction Fajuyi was a Lt Col he was never a General. Note that according to TY Danjuma Fajuyi was already a marked man by the July planners because all attempts at a speedy court martial of the Jan boys was blocked by Fajuyi and also it was rumored that Fajuyi provided support to the Jan boys during a training course in Abeokuta in 1965 where all the particpators in the course ended up in that coup.

The honorable thing Fajuyi did was to ask Danjuma to ensure that Ironsi's life was to be spared.

Well, that may be an overstatement, but Danjuma clearly said that all the while during their discussion when Danjuma demanded for Ironsi, that Fajuyi repeatedly asked for assurances "for his own life" not for Ironsi. It was obvious that Fajuyi was certain that his own life was in danger and the only one that could have helped him then was Danjuma.

Danjuma later said (I think he was lying) that he lost control of the boys (soldiers) after they got Ironsi (and Fajuyi of course).

Fujuyi was at Western region at the time. Exercise damisa took place in kaduna.


How do you link fajuyi to that?

Yes, danjuma reported that they almost attacked him when he was insisting arrest and not execution.

He had no chance of leaving and was never given the option of leaving. TY Danjuma is still alive and can testify what happened that night since he was part of the coup that killed both men.
Shut that rotten gutter you called mouth. Youre a big full for mentioning TY. Danjuma, that he's still alive to testify. What you just said is like showing you the penis a man used in raping your wife.....very foolish statement.

Nzeogwu coordinated the training in kaduna. How was it under fajuyi s watch who was in western region - abeaokuta/ibadan command in garrison and administrative role?

I have a question for you since you don't have the mind to face Northerners and ask them questions.


Was Fajuyi killed in shoot out defending Ironsi?

What was so hard for the northern soldiers to kill their target and leave Fajuyi?


If Fajuyi was killed by Igbo soldiers and they tell you this false story, will you yorubas agreed to that?
You are nothing more than a leprechaun to me. It doesn't matter what I say. You and your kind are best left to your mischievous ways..

erniok:
So the battle group course that Nzeogwu conducted the night rehearsals was done under who?
I think you mixed up two different things. Nzeogwu did not attend the Battle Group Course commanded by Fajuyi in Abeokuta like Major Wale Ademoyega and Captain Ben Gbulie who were part of the Nzeogwu coup. The mix up actually came from TY Danjuma who assumed at that time that another exercise that Fajuyi commanded in the north at a different time was part of preparation for the January coup, even though the coup had already taken place and Nzeogwu was already in prison at that time when Fajuyi conducted the second exercise.

Fajuyi's Kachia training in which Nzeogwu NEVER participated in was much later than the Battle Group Course of Sept 1965. So the fact is that Nzeogwu never particpated in a different training under Fajuyi in Kachia but the counter-coup plotters assumed that Fajuyi's two courses were decoys for coups.
