If you were about the truth, you'd agree that Tinubu has failed woefully

Otamendi99:


Kpele. I be igbo. No mean say if i see true i no go talk.

Yet you blamed Igbos civilians for the 1966 coup as Igbo coup even though it was Awolowo coup

Xisnin:

No, he wasn't indicted for coup plotting.
He was indicted for wanting to "overthrow the government" by the stupid Balewa istration
who got angry because Awolowo resisted his attempt to politically take over the western region.


Anybody with functioning brain knows that the trial was a political hit by the jittery NPC.
The judge even declared that "My hands are tied." before ing the judgment.
That is the first coup trial in the history of the world where 100% of the accused are civilians
that have zero ties with the military.
And what evidence was used?
Alleged article writings published in newspapers! Yes, the weapon for the coup was the
public writings of the accused, not guns , not bombs but writings.

It is soldiers that plots coups and not civilians with zero official powers.
I don't expect you to understand due to your severe intellectual deficiency.

You've not answered why IREV was shutdown only for the presidential election when Obi was winning?

You've not explained why Obi's result was switched to Tinubu in Rivers and Benue. How come Obi won in most military formation where rigging is difficult. Obi won in Lagos and Abuja where you have international observers.

Obi won the 2023 presidential election and one day Mahmmud and his cohorts will confess

chopnaira:

Peak clowning. Obi is only popular in the SE and a few spots in other Southern region. After that, no one really rates him else where.

That is why he is now focusing his campaign in areas/regions where he is weak. If all these your conspiracies were true, Obi himself won't bother for 2027..

Why did they kill Fajuyi?

Lifestone:

They were both killed

Obi got about 900k votes in Lagos, it was reduced to 550k. Obi won Rivers State, it was switched to Tinubu, Obi won Benue, it was switched to Tinubu. Obi's votes in Borno and Sokoto were suppressed.

Obi got about 10million votes. How do you explain procuring IREV with 300 billion and switched it off for only the presidential election when Obi was winning?

kedeojo:
Obi didn't win any election. He lost woefully in north west and north east. He only did well in Lagos and lost woefully in the other south west states. This three zones are the highest voting strength. Even north central, Tinubu scored high votes there too. Your south east votes cant get you presidency.

If he had this misgivings about Igbos, why form a country with them?

ElSudani:


Like Ahmadu Bello who had an interview warning other Nigerians about Ibos?

Does it make sense to you that Northern soldiers can't separate him from Ironsi?

Lifestone:

Dey deceive yourself. All s of the events including those from Danjuma confirmed that he opted to go to wherever his guests is taken to. He took the bullet for Ironsi. The irony of it is that Igbos have failed to acknowledge this.

Share the good news if any

sreamsense:

Ipob man, he only specializes in hunting bad news or unfavourable news about Nigeria. When he sees the one favourable, he will be lamenting and weeping inside

This country is not working.

Biafra needs to emerge as a matter of urgency

Racoon:


https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/02/top-10-most-productive-countries-in-africa-in-2025/

You're the dull obe if you cannot get my drift.

If he was indicted for coup plotting, it goes to show that he has the propensity to plan another one.

The 1966 January coup was supposed to free him and make him the president. All the people that were killed were actually Awolowo's enemies

Xisnin:

How dull can you be?
Someone was sentenced to 10 years in prison and you are still asking why he was in prison
for so long.

APC is a satanic party.

Chucks13:


Point of correction apc is not Nigeria enemy what is going on is just a matter of political policies it's lije you calling Republican in US America Enemy or Calling Conservative in UK England Enemy, hell No.

I'm only happy the fight is going on in their midst because of how they treated Gej and God of Gej paying them back anything outside that pls drop it.

So far at the current political dispensation the best 5 performing governor as at today apc along have 3 or 4 out of the 5 best so how can you say they are Nigeria Enemy infact the only enemy Nigeria have is obi, ipob and obidient. Kiss the truth.

Why was he in prison for so long?

CodeTemplar:
Found guilty you say. Thats just a judge perspective.

We're saying the same thing. I think you quoted the wrong person

Tranquillity360:
This story was told by none other than the ADC to General Aguiyi Ironsi himself, Captain (Now Senator) Andrew Nwankwo. It shows how the Northerners murdered Lt. Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi and his host, Ironsi. It also shows that they lied to the Yoruba nation that Fajuyi was killed accidentally while defending Ironsi. His murder was covered up by the north in order not to make the west suspicious of their agenda. Read on.

How Ironsi was killed, by his ADC
By PETRUS OBI, Abakaliki
Monday, June 28, 2004

Senator Andrew Nwankwo from the Izzi clan in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, was a captain in the Nigeria Air Force before the January 1966 coup that made way for Major General J. T. U Aguiyi Ironsi to emerge as Head of State.
He became Ironsi’s Aide-De-Camp through the recommendation of Brigadier George Krubo who was then in-charge of the Air Force and subsequently supervised the late Head of State’s security.

Capt. Andrew Nwankwo (rtd) said he was to die with his boss, but for fate. He was present when both Ironsi and Fajuyi were shot dead.

Tracking the 61-year-old former ADC down in his one story building residence in Abakaliki was not as difficult as getting him to recall the events that led to the death of his master 38 years ago.
He would start by taking you down memory lane when he served as a courier to late Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, "I was manning the octopus-a helicopter that carries 105 artillery gun and six other machine guns.

"So when Ethiopia was at war with Somalia in 1964/65 we formed the defence group of the emperor, we also formed an attack force. When the emperor is going to the frontline to see what is happening, we ring him round to clear the way for him".
It was part of these that Ironsi saw and handed over his security to the young captain. "It was cool working with Ironsi, he understood everything about what I should do because he had commanded the UN forces in Congo, and that exposed him to the type of people he needed".

The coup
Recalling the events of that night, July 29, 1966, Nwankwo noted that they were in Ibadan, "we had a small detachment of 106 Artillery, Commanded by one Walbe from Plateau"
The Head of State had the previous day hosted traditional rulers from all parts of the country in the Ibadan Government House. "He wasn’t feeling quite well, he had a knee problem and had to go to bed early.

"Lieutenant Sanni Bello was the army ADC, and we were very close. So, we left that night to go and look out and came back late. Lt. Adamu who was the ADC to Fajuyi, Sanni Bello, Walbe and myself, we all slept together in one room that night".
"At about 4a.m the telephone rang, I picked it up and that was Adeola, the then commissioner of police, Ibadan he said he wanted to speak with Ironsi, I said I was the ADC, he said he wanted to speak with him because there was a coup and he gave me some names Orok and two others that had been killed in

Abeokuta.
"Immediately, I made a mental picture of it, and I knew that it was the northerners that were responsible. So, I handed the phone to Ironsi and they talked. I then alerted Adamu and Sanni Bello and said look, there is a coup and the trend is this way.

"Bello assured me that if it is his own people he will protect me, because, there was tension in the land such that we knew a coup was imminent. So, we agreed to protect each other depending on where it will be coming from. I later discovered that Walbe who was sleeping with us was part of the coup; he later became ADC to Gowon.

"Around 5:30 we heard gunfire, then Ironsi had called Col. Njoku to tell him about the coup. As Njoku was going out, he was short at, but he escaped with bullet wounds. It was Njoku, who was the commander of Lagos Garrison that alerted others outside the Government House, Ibadan.
"Fajuyi later sent me outside the government House to find out what was happening. I met Danjuma, who was then a major and he was my friend. He pretended he didn’t know what was happening, he was asking me, and I said I didn’t know. While I was trying to go back, one sergeant from Benue almost shot me, but Danjuma stopped him and spoke to him in Hausa. Danjuma later told me that he would like to see Ironsi, so that he could tell them what to do.

"It was then that Fajuyi came out to find out what was holding me, and there inside the Government House Danjuma ordered for his arrest and mine too. That was when I saw Walbe. Then Fajuyi asked me to take him to Ironsi so that they will obey him, that there should be only one person in charge. So, I took them to Ironsi, and major Newman, immediately he saw Ironsi, he seized his crocodile swagger stick, and then they started asking him about the January coup, he said he didn’t know about it that he only agreed to be Head of State so that he can restore confidence and normalcy. It was immediately they arrested Ironsi that they turned violent".

The road to the valley of death
They marched us down, Ironsi and myself, to where Fajuyi was. They used telephone cable to tie my hands behind and my legs, with a little space to walk. Same they did to Ironsi, but they removed his shirt, he wore only tros, they also tied Fajuyi. Ironsi was in a Land Rover, Fajuyi in a mini bus and myself in another bus. They drove us towards Iwo Road, 10 km from Ibadan, there was a small forest were they stopped, marched us to the right hand side of the bush, Fajuyi was leading and as he tried to cross a small stream, he fell down, the soldiers were unruly, it appeared some of them had for the first time taken Indian hemp, so when he fell down some of them started beating him.

My escape
As Fajuyi fell down and they were beating him, Sanni Bello came to me and tapped me and said, we could do something now. It was providence, may be I was not destined to die. I took a few steps from them and jumped into a nearby ditch, all in a split of a second, Bello came and stood by the ditch and was shouting that I had escaped pointing at another direction. So the soldiers ran around that direction shooting into the bush, and when they felt they must have killed me, they shot Fajuyi and then Ironsi there, by the side of the stream. So Bello made sure that he was the last to leave the place.
The ADC, who was later elected senator in 1983 stated that the former Head of State could have escaped if not that he wanted to make sure that there was no bloodshed. He said if he sacrificed his life and prevented bloodshed in Nigeria, it’s better for him. Even his chaplain urged him to escape but he said No. Also many of his officers who were ed instead of taking action ran away.
The ADC denied the prevailing story that Ironsi was tied to a Land Rover and dragged along the road. He maintained that he saw Ironsi and Fajuyi shot dead. "They shot him on the chest and it was a burst, so he would have died after the first shot".

The crocodile staff
It was a swagger stick, which he made after his name Aguiyi (crocodile). It was in the Congo, when he was commanding the United Nations Forces, the Indian troops were to land at the Lumumbashi Airport but the Cameroon gendarmes went and blocked the place with trucks, so that the Indian soldiers will not land, so, he used a Land Rover and with the stagger stick waved as they were shouting, he was eventually able to convince them to remove the trucks. Many attributed that feat to extraordinary powers in his swagger stick. But there was nothing in it, it was just a stick. Ironsi was not fetish; he was a devoted Catholic and attended mass every morning, even the day he was killed. ***** This Interview was culled from www.sunnewsonline.com

We're not praising El Rufai, we just like the fight going on in the camp of Nigeria's enemies

Chucks13:


Mr metussellah calling someone a boy I don't need to attack Hell Rufai because he is already a pained loser and mentally deranged midget but my attack goes to those praising Hell Rufai after al the actrocities he committed as ex governor of Kaduna.

Beer parlour gossips

famouscargo4u:
IBB is a liar. He does not wabt to leave the Corridor of power that Was whybhe said he stepped aside. He was aware of What led to Abacha's death. He was equally aware of Abiola's death. He knew that should Abiola assume power, he would deal with him. He us just a coward.

An election where INEC shutdown IREV when they saw Obi winning?

Is it the Rivers result that has been confirmed Obi won?

What about videos of results being altered with TipEx?

2023 presidential election was a fraud

Daddyk87:

2023 was best elections we ever had since 1999.

They only care about IPOB not breaking Igbos away from Nigeria

STEWpid:
C h a i..








How can bandits operate for hours in Kaduna State where NDA is situated, with many generals and rank & file officers?

Chai..,,

Nigeria cannot afford to reinforce the failure Tinubu

jkpbestseries:
Very funny people, did Buhari did well? He got a second chance

Intelligent and Tinubu shouldn't be in the same sentence.

Tinubu is the worst illegitimate president Nigeria ever had

floss:
El Rufai should thread more carefully, Tinubu is not Jonathan… He’s the most intelligent politician Nigerian has ever produced.

If he can mastermind his own presidency, the man Tinubu is totally something else.

I know what I’m saying, El Rufai please apply wisdom, ask Amaechi Rotimi how far?

The president can make your political career dead on arrival that you can’t win ordinary councillor in your own ward

Put the interview here

Tinubuadvocate:
There's a side effects to everything this might consume your ass.Go and listen to ironsi wife interview and other people that present at that time.

He wasn't protecting Ironsi. He was marked for death to. It was alleged he was the link to Awolowo who was planned to be made president if the coup had succeeded

Lifestone:
We should ask Danjuma. He died protecting Aguyi Ironsi

But you did not insult him. Your insults are reserved for Obi. Continue

Paraman:
El-rufai is overestimating himself

This is same accusation of the binance executive and now El Rufai is saying same thing about Ribadu doing everything to position himself for president

Nnamdipapa:
That is the maturity of a leader, you don't throw stones at every barking dog else you never reach your destination.

Obj made the monumental mistake of making the midget minister of FCT when he was a mere neophyte, now, the midget who has no relevance in his own state thinks he owns Nigeria.

You're displaying cowardice by not attacking the originator. Yeye boy

Chucks13:


I said you lack sense just accept it and move on.

IREV ensures everybody sees the results timely so even if agents are compromised or results are changed during collation, it'd be obvious.

If IREV wasn't important, why did INEC spent 300 billion to procure it and why did they call it a game changer?

You're still advocating for manual copies where rigging is easy because you know your candidates are usually unpopular.

Obi won the 2023 election and this is a fact

Thiefobi1:


IREV is a viewing portal not collation portal.

Labour party agent were all given manual result sheet at their polling unit.

Am 100% sure they did their own manual calculation and it turnout obi still lost.

If not why did obi not present the manual sheet at the tribunal.

Attack El Rufai, he said it

kedeojo:
You father that is not an area boy, what has he achieved in life. Ordinary chairman he no fit do.

Na Igbos and Obi be your business?

Otamendi99:


Dat one na ur business. Not mine

INEC actually rigged Tinubu in

HEAVEN4444:
ask INEC

Provided they don't shutdown IREV when Obi starts winning again

simpleseyi:


Continue this nonsense you are saying and see how you get to the Presidency. You think 2027 will be like 2023? You will be surprised at the margin that Emilokan JAGABAN will give other candidates once he distributes money to the big big thieves leading the masses or haven’t you seen as they are decamping to APC?

So why was IREV shutdown when they saw Obi winning?

HEAVEN4444:
obi didn't win any election. Tinubu won fair and square

Obi won Lagos but his margin was reduced. Obi also won the election but the elites you're trying to downplay rigged the election for Tinubu

HEAVEN4444:
this may be the opinion of hausa and Yoruba elites but the voting man on the street thinks different. Peter obi won Lagos state in last election. He won a Yoruba state. So as you can see ? Your point is mute

Many Yorubas and Hausa-Fulanis have said they cannot trust Igbos with power because they might break up Nigeria.

That sentiments is preventing them from voting for Igbos no matter how good the candidate is esp Hausa-Fulanis that depends of one Nigeria to survive

HEAVEN4444:
I don't think anyone is ganging up just like how atiku aligning with obi that time is not igbo ganging up with Fulani. Forming ally is not ganging up
