Every IPOBs retards is saying igbos need compensation from the government
No
They need compensation from the people too
Get your voters card
And let’s vote Peter obi come 2027
A new Nigeria is POsibble

Dalohad:
So who was in charge of the Calabar prison in the Eastern region, and why didn't Ademoyega and co. drag out Awolowo in Calabar prison and kill him?

XerXers:
The coupist will sieze power first before installing their preferred civilian. Abiola planned Abacha coup same way but it backfired just like Obienu crushed Awolowo coup. Ifeajuna is a well known Awolowo boy. Your problem is you think everything is about tribe. How come Anuforo killed Unegbe for resisting to surrender the armoury? Stop tribalizing every national event

franchasng:
Now the truth is coming out.

Awolowo stepped down from being Western Premier to contest federal election to become President and Akintola took over as Western Premier, Awolowo lost the election to Nnamdi Azikiwe and went back to tell Akintola to vacate the Western Premier seat for him, Akintola refused and the western political war began.
Ok IPOB!
Ok shukudi

Akintola being a Moslem was closer to Sir Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Belewa so they used federal political might to jail Awolowo and was planning an operation wetie using Nigerian army to be led by mostly Igbos and Northern soldiers who dominated the army then. Unfortunately the Igbo soldiers liked Awolowo and briefed Awolowo who then instructed them to stop the operation at all cost. To stop the operation wetie, Nzeogwu, Ifeajuna and Ademelugan decided to carry out a complete revolution to topple the whole government and return the government to a new government to be headed by Awolowo.


Awolowo instructed the military guys that carried out the coup to make sure they kill his political rivalries Akintola, Ahmadu Bello and Belewa. The picture is now getting clearer, thank you IBB.


No wonder Abacha swore that MKO Abiola will never become President because MKO Abiola also sponsored coups like Awolowo and later wanted to become civilian President and Northern Military guys who knew that Awolowo sponsored the 1966 coup swore that MKO Abiola just like Awolowo will never become President.




Now I see why Awolowo before his death advised Yorubas to work with Igbos more politically than with the North.


Wow, IBB is opening a whole lot of truths

ajailer:
Now this is their narrative.....

A military man wants to hijack a civilian govt in order to hand over government to another civilian (Awo) who happens to be imprisoned at that time..

On what legality/ illegality will he, Awo be able to hold-on to power since he does not have access to guns to create fear like the military?
Will the military in an impossible scenario guide Awo, a civilian? where else in the world has this ever happened?

Now the coup was executed and their real intent became known when they killed leaders from other tribes and left theirs alive. They even added salt to injury by handing over the reigns of government to their tribal military colleague, and Awo who they deceived others that they were fighting for was never set free.....

Now, let's even agree that their initial intent was to set Awo free, then I ask this question. What is their concern with freeing Awo, is he their family member? Only a foolish man will leave his own issue and say he wants to help another man out with his own issue. Do you use Panadol for another man's headache? Only a fool does that.


Make these ibo guys keep on living in fool's paradise. We know them and we are not deceived by their efforts to change the narrative cos we know them better now...... only thing we are just waiting for is the time to be right for we, Yorubas to send them all packing back to their enclave.... I know the D-day is getting nearer.

YoruBads:
The coup was a. Yoruba coup and Yorubas know it.

gsmphoneseller:
Abacha would have saved us from Tpain

XerXers:
Consolation for low achievers. Inferior people

gsmphoneseller:
Yorubas demand IBB's prosecution for exposing them and their atrocious crimes against Nigeria and Igbos.

gsmphoneseller:
IBB exposed Yoruba for what they are.

Temptation147:
Even if Soludo comes out today to contest for Presidency you will still remind him of fighting native doctors in Anambra

TinubuCriminal:
Such an unfortunate event that claimed lives and changed a nation's history for the worst.

Unnecessary.
Pointless.

Awolowo why??

Sad.

EasternActivist:
The truth is shocking

1966 coup is not an Igbo coup but awolowo coup.

The smelly idiot planned the whole thing and when it failed he used the legacy media to propagate a very evil agenda that it's an igbo coup.

May he never find peace, heard he committed suicide

Chibuzoc:
Akintola with the aid of sarduna and balewa jailed Awolowo for treason and awolowo masterminded the death of akintola from prison

Wahabfuture:
Are you done ranting?

BloomingDale:
You should be thinking of how to prevent/stop the election thuggery in your region that you’ve been practicing since your inception, that lead to the 1966 coup, instead of running your mouth here.

favor914:
When did Lagos become the core of Yorubaland?

Right from the history of time, Lagos has always been distinct from Yoruba land, when the Portuguese (first Europeans) arrived in Eko, it was been ruled by the Bini Empire that ruled it until 1861 when the British Empire officially liberated Lagos from The Oba of Benin.

The British ruled it for 99 years & handed it over to The Federal Government of Nigeria in 1960 who then created modern Lagos State on the 4th day of July 1967.

Christistruth02:
Very Simple

Because Awolowo was already in Jail

gsmphoneseller:
Because Awolowo was part of the plan and he was to be made the Prime minister but he betrayed his associates just like the Yorubads ways do. Ask El-Rufai and he'll explain to you what Yorubas did to him.

Chibuzoc:
Operation wetie in yorubaland was the reason for the coup. Akintola vs Awolowo
