Who Led The 1967 Counter Coup? by Titheman(op):
some people would see this as past and irrelevant but issues of this standard has to be clarified.
I brought this up here because of the divers accounts I've heard. someone told me Gowon was giving the orders for Lagos, then I heard Danjuma on his own planned and lead the coup, then I heard murtala ordered the complete whip of igbo officers in the barracks. then recently I heard some biafrans discussing events that lead to the civil war, I heard them say buhari and babagida lead the coup and were instrumental in the installing of gowon.
