Ojukwu was in kano too but didn't support the coup. If major kaduna succeded in Kaduna or the North,of course the boys he led to wreck harvock were from the north, they could have easily rebel against him.

Hear him, it was not an Igbo coup but he claimed there was a northern coup plotted by Maimalari. Can you imagine what this man says. He claimed Awolowo was to be the beneficiary, come on, that was an afterthought. He is hairbrushing the shenanigans of his people, giving excuses for them and accusing others. According to him his people are the best thing since sliced bread and it is the Fulanis and Yorubas that have problems. Both of them (interviewer and the red capped man) are ibo apologists. These type of people are often responsible for the problems of Nigeria. He accused other tribes but we know what his people are doing in Lagos. Adulterated drinks, counterfeit medicines/goods and drugs. Yet he claimed business is in their DNA, which business? This is a very pedestrian interview without any serious challenges of the man. They are trying to rewrite history. These are mainly lies upon more lies

Since 1967, the Igbo have been marginalized from political power in Nigeria, with the Fulani and Yoruba communities predominantly leading the country. Despite this, Nigeria has become the "hunger capital," yet blame is often still placed on the Igbo for the nation's issues. If the Igbo are seen as the problem, why not allow them to pursue their aspirations for independence? It seems there is reluctance to do so, perhaps due to fear that they would thrive independently, like an island in a desert.

Exactly and when you tell them the truth they say you hate them and say "We the ndigbo are hardworking" as if people from other tribes are not Hardworking

An Igbo coup but Awolowo was to be placed as the president. Olodo people

He says Awolowo was going to be the beneficiary, where did that come from? It’s a myth and an afterthought. It was an ibo coup to the core and if you plan a coup you face the consequences. Don’t deceive Nigerians and talk about Awolowo. Awolowo was stoned by those people when he went to campaign in the East despite an ibo man being his running mate. This Obilo platform is designed to promote Ibo interests subtly and covertly and undermine Yoruba world view, heritage and sense of history

@@abimolabinjo2123 You see, because you are ignorant and unable to read books, you know nothing yet commenting and judging what you know nothing about. Oga, Awolowo was going to be the president. Go and do your research, read books to update yourself. Sentiment will not upgrade you oga
