This bridge was commissioned by the then Prime Minister late Alhaji Tafawa Balewa and opened for traffic in December 1965... barely 15 days after, The same Balewa was assassinated by the people he commissioned the bridge for.

Two years later, the same people destroyed what was built for them.

Care to show me links to prove that Ndigbo voted in a plebiscite for Nzeogwu and his gang to go and murder anyone?

Classic case of giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it!

Say no to war!

Who killed this man? Did Nigeria attack and killed the people of his tribe?

Always learn...but you need more education though...

The killer of Murtala were executed immediately not protected like Ifeajuna and co

Protected by Igbos? How?

What about the killers of Abiola and his wife? Why were they protected too?

That’s to tell you that he massacre of over 60,000 igbo civilians all over the north was premeditated.

Other coups and assasination happened after that but no tribe was massacred.

They were envious of igbos and looking for the right excuse to do what they did.


Today they are looking for another excuse but unfortunately for them a character like Nnamdi Kanu arouse.


If 1966 massacre happens again, that will be the fastest route to Biafra. This time, the international community will see it happen live.

ANSMEDIA:


History recorded that the brave Biafran soldiers led by General Achuzia, General Ikedife blew the bridge to shut out the invading Nigerian forces from entering the Biafran territory. This singular act of bravery made the Nigerian forces led by Murtala Muhammed to lose the battle at Niger bridge, this prompted the then Head of state, General Gowon to quickly redeploy General Murtala Muhammed.

Lalasticlala

Correction. There was no battle at Niger Bridge the battle was Onitsha waterside. Achuzia blew up the bridge to slow the advance of the Nigerian forces. Murtala then sent thousands of soldiers across to Onitsha where they started to loot and destroy like they had done in Asaba. Biafran soldiers rallied and totally massacred the Federal forces. Some managed to swim back to Asaba to tell what happened.

Murtala the butcher of asaba, high on drugs and overconfident after his babalawo assured him he would win, sent wave after wave of men in boats across to Onitsha but they were massacred also.

This dayokanu tells the same lies over and over for more than ten years and e no dey tire

Ironsi foiled the coup, locked the coup plotters up, allowed the special investigative panel do it's job, before they could give their findings there was the counter-coup. But hatred for Igbo ppl still inspires all these lies about ironsi

Protected by Ironsi

Was Abiola killed in a coup?

Hmmm

The coup plotters were protected by Ironsi just like the ibo top politicians were tipped off by Ifeajuna and his gang

A few military men from different ethnic groups did it.They were a few military men not the civilian populace. when Abacha and his group looted Nigeria dry no one mentioned the entire Hausa/Fulani . when OBJ golp 16billion dollars via NEPA and killed everyone in Udi no one mentioned the entire yoruba race.when Dimka killed Murtala heaven did not brake loose ,when Abacha locked up MKO and when he died in prison no one mentioned the entire Abacha family but when Nzeogu spearheaded the coup in 1966 without consulting the igbos (even though his people in Delta state still deny that they are igbos)the entire country descended on the innocent igbo population. why do you people behave this way,must you judge like cavemen?The massacre of the igbos after the 1966 coup caused the civil war.

The coup plotters were rounded up and imprisoned waiting for court martial and when found guilty executed before enemies of enemies killed Ironsi .

This dayokanu too funny walahi

How was he protecting the coup plotters when they were in jail awaiting prosecution. The special investigation team led by M.D. Yusuf (fulani) submitted its report to Hassan Katsina who did nothing with it. (he was already plotting the countercoup)

How did IronsI protect them? You have no facts

muykem:
And their children have not repented till today.

What of those ones that we massacred by his people too?

All are politically motivated murder. So why were the killers of Abiola and his wife protected?

Afonja man shame nodey catch you, how many times have you talk about Abiola killers like IBB and Al Mustapha that is walking free today, everyday Igbo that Igbo this, the same you will say no Igbo for Naija Delta.

Is Kaduna that carried out coup not from Naija Delta.

Ifeajuna and other ibo soldiers killed other regional leaders and spared theirs.

Ironsi instead of executing them immediately, was pampering them. All the problems in this country can be traced back to ibo betrayal in that first coup

So it's not today Abokis started abusing drugs

The counter coup was 6 months later, 6 months is more than enough to deliver swift justice to the coup plotters like was done for other plotters like orkar Dimka who were executed 3 months after their coups

Kaduna Nzeogwu is from Niger Delta. Afonja na only Ifeajuna name you see pick, what of yorubas like Ademoyaga and co that spearheaded the coup with Nzeogwu.Those that killed Abiola and wife is still walking free what have you Yorubas done about that.

[quote author=nku5 post=77537452][/quote]Go and see how swiftly orkar Dimka and other plotters were dealt with, tell me if anyone of them was still joking around after 6 months

But these ibo soldiers killed a prime minister, 2 premiers, several military leaders who were not ibos and ironsi was still pussyfooting for 6 months

God bless President Buhari.
