I am eighty years old, and an eye witness to Nigeria Independence in 1960 a year I finished Primary School and subsequently events that led to January 15th 1966. My point to the moderator is, there was no mentioned to free Awolowo in the plan of January 15th military Majors/Captain that truncated the Balewa and Akintola regime in the Western Region. Many people’s has been saying many things that contrary to the root cause of the coup.
This man speaking is a great lecturer, he dealt with it, sufficiently to be honest and understand the truth power of reality, as to the causes and the result.
Why didn’t you say he would have killed Swantong who is from the north also,Adewale Ademoyuga from the West to balance your stupid idea. Now it is said it wasn’t an Igbo coup,you want to make it an Igbo coup. An Igbo officer was killed by Christ Anuforo,his name is Arthur Chinelo Unegbem.
God bless u sir for ur unbiased analysis . Unfortunately igbos are still paying for this deed till date . How much more will they pay before they are free. Am just a Nigerian youth asking ??? Thank u all.
No matter the spin. It waw an Igbo coup. The Igbo weee not in the opposition or dormant in government. They held major positions, and none of the people were killed. He would explain tire.
@@damianoyamendan5758 but premiere of the West and North were killed, top northern officers were killed, and prime minister Tafawa was also massacred while Nnamdi, eastern premiere, Igbo top officers all were left out. So can u now say it wasn't an Ibo coup?
God bless this detribalized man for great analysis, now I know there was absolutely no need to have killed Michael Opara during the 1966 coup, as for those saying why Zik wasn"t killed I guessed he too got a wind of the coup same way both Akintola and Saudana had of it and never believed it will happen and fled out of the country.
Azikiwe had already been out of the country for a while. That is why nobody involved in the coup ever implicated him. MI Okpara was not corrupt nor was involved in instigating the political violence in Nigeria, particularly the 1965 Western crisis aka Operation Wetie. Akintola, Balewa and Bello used political violence, vote rigging & Census rigging. They were very corrupt. It's all well documented.
The same way that almighty Saudan never believed that coup can happen is how most Nigerians don"t believe coup can happen again in country, but me oo! if our living conditions failed to improve the looting continued military will strike again to the shock of many, whether it succeeds or not is immaterial so long as there will be huge casualties among those thieves parading themselves as leaders
@@kayodeakinyemi708what is obvious here is that it was the treacherous Yoruba media that named the January 15th 1966 coup an Igbo coup, but failed to name the retaliatory coup in July of same year an Hausa-Fulani coup, even when the perception suggests so.

It's a complete sectional coup old man. Are you saying no intellectual or intelligent officer from the north? You are not saying the truth old man. Such half and distorted truth is what is keeping us under bondage in Nigeria. I wonder if we can ever be one in Nigeria
Dr Yeni Faronbi didn't know what he was saying. How can it be a failure of operation both in Enugu and Lagos where we have Igbo? Itonsi escaped in Lagos. Do you think that was a coincidence ? Okpara was not killed, Azikwe was on leave. You call that a failure, too. Common baba Yemi, just leave the story
Those who prosecuted the coup had their plans and when they failed and where arrested, wrote books and granted interviews Why fo you want to change their story?. It was obvious they went after supposed enemies of Obafemi Awolowo. Akintola and the then prime minister. If it was such an Igbo coup, why did Ironsi quell it. Igbos were part of the government in power and enjoyed the most important positions in power so why lose it. Northern soldiers were part of that coup too.

@asaasare220 you see ignorance is bad. You have refused to remove the bias and hatred you have that has made you ignorant. As far back as November 1965 the feeling that a coup was about to happen was in the air, that most politicians had guys in the army who gave them information on what was to happen. Maimalari in a party said that there was to be a coup in January of 1966 and that the plan was to wallop the west. So definitely Zik acted on that intel to be out of the country.
@asaasare220 go and watch the interview by Col Sani Bello who was Ironsi's ADC and you will know why the coup failed in Enugu. Two things happened first the presence of the Greek emissary in Enugu halted the move on Okpara and Ejoor who was the batallion commander had left Lagos after escaping Ifeajuna and got to Enugu and ordered soldiers to be on the road fully armed so that any troops from Lagos would be crushed. Col Sani Bello's platoon company was stationed at Enugu. The issue is people just believed all form of lies and co piracy theories. If social media existed then perhaps people would have seen the full details and would not have made stupid assumptions.
