Today in History. 45 years ago, on 29 July 1975: Gen. Yakubu Gowon, President of Nigeria, was in Kampala attending the OAU meeting when he heard--via one of his aides--that he had been ousted from office in a military coup.

Reuters captured the moment when Gowon was given the news.

Yeah

He (Gowon )will be laughing seriously against Muritala should he watch this clip at this moment.

And he was still calm and smiling.......I love his reaction.......his sympathisers must have been confused watching this then.

Well, how I wish we could have a president so young like Gowon then, but no, these youths prefer their oppressors

Good for him

Guy still kept on smiling. Last last na we masses suffer am the guy Dae flex e money.

Gowon is truly a soldier.

A soldier always appears cool in any situation.

E get people wey History don put for record sha.

Human beings don live for this earth wey we dey disorganize.

But really, History should be taught in every class. Be you a Science student or otherwise.

No knowledge is a waste. Enlighten people. Free their minds. Say no to mental slavery!!!

Ok

E 4 no go kampala

Could only imagine his thoughts then.

Guys forget the smile and the calm look, he was unnerved by the news and he was just keep up appearances for the cameras. Dude's mind must have been a mine field at that point.

They now say that the youths are not experienced enough

Vain and forced smiles. The most irrelevant former head of state in living history and to his people.

Gowon regret not supporting igbos

ok
