The other day you were lying that you are an Engr, I was asking you who licensed you to qualify you as an engineer, you ran away from that discourse, the other day when billions were given to schools to boost agriculture, you were a huge investor in farming but had no idea what "mechanized farming" is, today, you have become an economist, I'm waiting for the day where you are an ambassador or the CBN governor.

YoruBads:
But you know the coup was sponsored by Awolowo right?

So it's a Yoruba coup.

kettykings:
Apologies, please which industry did Tinubu build in his tenure?

franchasng:
You don't carry out coup to immediately install a civilian as President, it will become suspicious.


The military will first stabilize the nation after the coup and then organize an election to hand over power to civilian government. And they planned to make sure Awolowo emerged as the civilian President.


You don't understand how these things work.

Awolowo was a very visionary leader though he was too ambitious but he saw through the northern Moslem agenda and wanted to align more with Igbos to stop Northern Jihad.


Awolowo never wanted the almagamation of North and South to even continue, left to him, he would have dissolved it, but Nnamdi Azikiwe wanted to be seen as a Pan African leader which made him aligned with the North more.


It was Ladoke Samuel Akintola that wanted Yorubas to align more with North to push Igbos out of national dominance then but Awolowo never wanted that but wanted Igbos and Yorubas to work more closely and this endeared Igbo military officers to Awolowo. It made them cherish Awolowo more than Nnamdi Azikiwe and reason they wanted to stop the operation Wetie and save Awolowo their preferred leader then.


Many things made Awolowo to feel frustrated about life that pushed him to take his own life; one he wanted to be President at all cost and got frustrated even after he frustratingly worked with the North via Gowon government after the coup and brought the idea that led to the death of thousands of Igbo children and old people during the civil war, which his confidant said he regretted till his death especially after the North still worked vehemently against him becoming President after all he did for them even against his conscience because he preferred Igbos from the beginning.


Awolowo is more like today's Prof Yemi Osinbajo while Tinubu is like Ladoke Akintola of the 1960s.


The January 1966 coup was an Awolowo coup that the Igbo soldiers later messed up by allowing Igbo tribal sentiments to derail their original plan, and in the process Aguiyi Ironsi hijacked the coup to his advantage and failed to do the necessary things to water down the suspicion by the North and he paid the huge price.

You really need to read wider with open mind to understand what really transpired in the early Nigerian political history

OfoIgbo:
Igbos fought the whole of Nigeria, a feat that Fulanis, Hausas or Yorubas can never ever do. So that should dispel any suspicions of Igbo cowardice.

However I am beginning to think that the January 1966 coup was Awolowo's coup. The main reason being that all those that were killed were Awolowo's political opponents.
He allegedly even arranged for the killing of his brother Akintola, just because Akintola had already subdued him in Western Nigeria.

Sardauna and Balewa were responsible for imprisoning Awolowo. Of course they had to go.

Azikiwe, Tarka, Okpara had no hand in the imprisonment of Awolowo, which was why they were not eliminated by Awolowo's coupists

Akpangbo:
A coup that was supposed to enthrone Yoruba prime minister and the same man turned around and declared food blockage against the people said to make him prime minister. Some of our Yoruba brothers should rethink and know how to talk. Igbos has moved on.

Wahabfuture:
Can you please answer my question?

zeuss:
They started killing igbos enmass in the North since 1948. Its all about jealousy...... At the slightest chance to blame or kill Igbo the North jumps at it. Igbos were still being killed in mass in the North up to the early 90s. It's all about jealousy.

Just like the Yoruba Muslims like you will always look for a reason, mostly imagined to blame igbos.

Arostar2023:
Na so! Who takes you guys serious? When he comes out to contest for presidency in a few years, you will remind him of his heritage.

MasterJayJay:
See them!!

Una go remind am that 1966 was an Igbo coup.


Una fake prediction of dollar coming down to 700 naira don come to pass?

Report BY JOHN DODGE

(CBS) -- Chicago State University finds itself at the center of a political dispute involving the newly elected president of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu.

Tinubu's political rival, Atiku Abubakar, claims that documents showing that Tinubu graduated from Chicago State in 1979 are not authentic. Submitting false records to the National Election Commission before the vote should nullify the election, Abubaker claims.

According to the People's Gazette, Tinubu submitted a certificate to the election commission purportedly issued in 1979 and signed by university President Elnora Daniel. But Daniel didn't arrive at CSU until 1998 and left about ten years later.

At a hearing in Chicago this week, Abubakar's lawyers asked a federal judge to compel CSU to turn over the documents and appear for depositions. Judge Jeffrey Gilbert of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois did not rule on the request

CSU's lawyer, Michael Hayes, told Gilbert that the university wouldn't be able to certify Tinubu's diploma under oath.

A CSU spokeswoman said the university can confirm the president graduated. However, it cannot authenticate the diploma because it is a ceremonial document that is not part of a student's official academic file.

Earlier this year, Nigeria's Presidential Election Petition Court dismissed Abubakar's petition against Tinubu's Feb. 25 election. However, Abubakar continues to fight the results here in Chicago.

As an educational institution, we are sometimes asked to provide information related to student records. Federal law known as FERPA (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) protects the privacy of student records and limits what an institution can release.

In August 2023, a request was made in U.S. federal court for the university to provide information related to educational records concerning Bola Tinubu, the President of Nigeria, and a former CSU student. The university has confirmed Tinubu attended CSU and graduated in 1979 with a bachelor's degree. Federal law, however, prevents us from providing any further information without consent or unless allowed to do so via court order.

CSU is confident in the veracity and integrity of our records regarding Tinubu's completion of graduation requirements and degree certificate. The university is not a party to the Nigerian legal proceedings that spurred this request, and a U.S. federal judge will determine whether the university will provide further requested information.

Our response to the request for Tinubu's academic records has been entirely consistent with our practices, policies and federal law. We would respond in exactly the same manner for any request for any student information by a third party.
