We should reject his own and accept your own abi ?

IBB that was on ground when those events happen.

Anybody that has a problem with IBB should write his or her own book to counter him.

I'm sure most sane Nigerians are against the attempt by IBB to rewrite history.. the only truth in his book is the part he itted M.K.O Abiola, GCFR of blessed memory won the 1993 presidential election, others are just manipulations.

Buhari (having access to the results) already itted it and posthumously granted him a GCFR a honour only bestowed on presidents/heads of states! IBB didn’t exactly have a choice.

The Yorubas are very dangerous set of people

I disagree..
Yorubas fought for return to democratic rule during the dark days of Nigeria under Military junta. You must have heard about NADECO and the June 12 struggle. Yorubas (including maybe few Igbos) fought that battle to save Nigeria.

You see likes of Arthur Nzeribe, this Peter Obi some misguided ones are rooting for and many other Igbos were beneficiaries of Military dictatorship and anti-democractic principles. Obi was an appointee under Abacha when men were challenging the status quo.

Many gen z full here and they talk without even knowing anything that happened then, if u took time to read what she said,
Babangida postponed election 3times before finally annuling 1993 elections, was it Abacha that did that too.

Babangida came with many lies and stopped the mandate of the people, riots and people's properties and life's were destroyed because of that event.

Babangida knows he's conscience is worrying him. Hence he came with this story but he actually came to tell more cock and bull stories.

I have told Seun to add a reply button directly under a post so people can be summarily replied under their post, na lie Seun no fit do am.... Giving excuses, many Nairalanders here need to be educated about history,

I listened to the IBB address and I can't understand the length and grace people accorded the so-called remorse he was said to have made. To me, TRUE remorse cannot be divorced from repentance and the proof of it is RESTITUTION! Did he repent? No! Did he offer restitution? No! Then, where is his remorse that people trumpet about?

If I heard him well, he said he took responsibilities for the June 12 issue but was quick to say that he took the decision in the interest of the nation which is the survival of the nation. As usual, the Maradona remains at the centre of neutrality, neither truly remorseful or boastful of his wrong doing. Surprisingly, people got carried away with the funny drama.

I don't really understand all these arguments about this IBB book......

Facts are facts....

*The 1966 coup was lead by Nzeogwu in the company of about 5 others with only one (Yoruba) from a different region other than the eastern region

*The casualties of the coup were "majorly" senior military officers from other regions even though the "senior" military officers then were majorly Igbos..

* The leaders of the western and northern regions were executed while the president (though ceremonial) and the eastern leader were not.

*After ironsi took power, it took him months and excessive pressure to hold the coup plotters able for their crimes.



They claimed they wanted to install Awolowo...?

Was Awolowo informed in calabar prison that he would be installed?....

How were they sure that Awolowo would entirely accept to be PM after the killings?

Will Awolowo be democratically elected the PM by the house under gun point by the coup plotters or appointmented the PM by the coup plotters?...

Pls events during and after the coup indicates that a group of ppl from a certain region perfectly planned to destabilise the government (either with good or bad intentions) but failed.....and there are consequences particularly when the stakes are high


Nzeogwu wasn’t from the eastern region. You slowpoke

An Igbo woman with sense. IBB's book is full of lies. We thought he was about to say the truth and die peacefully but a Maradona will always be a Maradona.

Any mention of tribe when it is absolutely uncalled for is termed tribalistic. You can make comments without calling attention to any tribe.

Let’s make no noise or mention about it because it is inconsequential where you come from and what language you speak or the color of your skin.

If this is achieved by 50%, Nigerians will Unite undoubtedly to fight our common enemy!

It is already Rejected by well meaning Loving NIGERIANS.
History will Never be kind to IBB and his group( some are Obas,Emirs,Senators,other Business People)- ing evil against Nigeria-For destroying the Smooth Running 💨 Democratic Government before he displayed Cowardice Acts of bringidaze
- He was a General but overnight turned himself to a ' President' that was never was, because nobody elected him,as he was not ready to Hand Over Power to Civilians because of Greed!
-He was a dictator and He Assaulted the Judiciary - by using Senator Nzeribe( a Legislator)-as a hatchet 🪓 man, and Overnight at 8.30 ,got a Court Injunction to annul June 12,1993 elections!
- It was this 'evil genius' Annulments that brought Naira to a lower ebbs in our Nation history - Naira immediately became worthless.
- Meanwhile,he used the $80- Billion to prepare elections for 8-years and transit to Nowhere and to Nobody,except his Chronic thieving brother- Abacha - who eventually Stole ALL our Money, FOREX,etc and export it Abroad and today,Nigeria is still Recovering Looted Abacha-Funds from Europe, USA, UK,etc .
- When Demonstration 🪧 for IBB was high,NADECO and Other Body 👁️ of Opposition came to light for Liberation of Nigeria, especially - on June 12.
- Many Nigerians- died,as they thought 🤔 Nigeria will break .
-He IBB, eventually ran to Abuja - that was never Completed at that time- by pouring Money,to make it the Capital!
-He later claimed- Stepping Aside - for Abacha,who began terrorising NIGERIANS.
So,his so called Book launch or Memoirs is a Fluke- deception and thank God,those who were at the Presentation all know the Truth except Babangida himself.
This Rubbish Book being written by so called IBB and CLIQUE -is an act of desperation to Re- Write History- in Nigeria but All is a Fallacy!
Very Shameful Indeed.

I heard there was a Kanu one million March organised by some Igbos to oppose the Abiola victory and amplifying for the annulment.
If true,Igbos have always betrayed Nigerians from the outset and they are chameleons also in wolves'clothings.

Stop lying! Your Yoruba people are the biggest beneficiaries of the military dictatorship because you see it as the spoils of the war enjoyed.

Even your Abiola sponsor military coup that brought IBB to power. Abiola was a also a friend of Abacha and IBB. Many Yoruba leaders were collecting contracts and bribe even when Abiola was in prison

Was shonekan not head of the government when IBB leave power before Abacha overthrow him.

Spare me that trash that you fight for democracy. How can you fight for democracy when you are the biggest beneficiaries of the military regimes.

Your yorubas billionaires got their oil wells during the military regimes of IBB and Abacha.

yinka, Buhari has already done what you asked since 2019 if i correctly.

Yinka is dead and secondly PMB only posthumously awarded MKO GCFR. He did not recognize him as a former president which is what the writer is asking (and I ).

There doesn't have to be a term, it's a ceremonial thing. And if you insist on a term it can easily be between his self declaration and his arrest.
