Nzeogwu was a cold blooded murderer as far as I am concerned....The prominent leaders he killed didn't deserve to die

HOW MANY OF OUR SO CALL LEADERS CAN SPEAK LIKE THIS??WITHOUT NOT LOOKING AT PAPER??THEY WILL STILL LOOK AND STILL BLOW GRAMMAR!!!!!TRUE HERO@WORK....

Look at how well spoken army officers were back in the day. Not these aboki charlatans we have today in khaki uniforms . Infact, our past heroes should be resurrected to take over what rightfully belongs to them. Enough said :-)

@tlig Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello, insighters of Genrocide against the Igbo which first occured in Jos (1945) and Kano (1953), rigged elections and saw to the falsification of census figures thereby subverting the democratic rights of the people, ordered mass-murder of 3,000 Tivs and caused violence in the West while with nepotism violating military recruitment and promotion order. Judge the real causes of the coup and pocket your tribal tantrums. What were the causes and motives of the coup?

To hell with this insubordinate bas@rd and his ilk. To those labelling him a hero; I'm pretty certain a number of you live in the west (US, UK mainly)- I wonder what those countries would look like if their soldiers kept leaving the barracks to overthrow democratic governments (treason btw). You think they'd be as stable and prosperous? This dunce was employed to serve his country in the army, not to abuse the opportunity by using weapons given to him in that role to usurp authority.

@theigbotruth:

General Kotoka overthrown Nkrumah. J. Rawlings' revolution did not sweep Nkrumah away. It swept Afrifa, Acheampong and Akufo.

On the coup itself, I believed Nzeogwu meant well. But he was disappointed and used by selfish officers from his tribe. Bello got killed in Kaduna, Akintola got killed in Ibadan but they left Osadebey in Benin and Okpara in Enugu untouched. Damn!

He spoke fluent Hausa because he was born and raised in the North like Azikiwe, Akintola and Ojukwu.

@theigbotruth:

Ifeajuna messed up the whole plan. Ifeajuna not Ademoyega led the Lagos operations. Unfortunately, it was the same Ifeajuna who tipped off Azikwe and he ran away before the coup. He also tipped off Ironsi.

Balewa and Azikiwe were the heads of that government, so, if they kill Balewa, they should have killed Azikiwe too.

Nzeogwu was a BRAVE warrior, but he was sold out by his fellow Igbo officers. The Igbo officers sent to Benin and Enugu failed to arrest Osadebey and Okpara.

[theigbotruth]

ok

[theigbotruth]

the only reason Chukwu is a bad man is cos his plans failed. J.rawlings revolution swept away Nkrumah even though he was a visionary. Today ghana is heads and shoulders above ur nigeria. good soldiers make sacrifices, u never knew if wanted to hand over to a northerner or westerner. ironsi as president was never part of the plan. in fact it was a fatal blow to d wind of revoution. if u want get into nzeogwu head, read obj's book "nzeogwu". nigerians don't read they listen to lores and legends

@theigbotruth So coup plotting and murder, regardless of victim, are no crimes abi?
