In this video we narrate, one by one, the history of all military coups that have taken place in Nigeria from the first one in 1966 to the 8th and last one in 1994.
Watching from Zimbabwe, thank you very much. I always look forward to evey new video. I have watched all of them. Because of you, I can tell the polical history of Nigeria, with much ease and in detail.
Many thanks, Andy. Hispel is my good brother and friend. But this is BACK IN HISTORY. Always my pleasure 🙏 yo know that you watch both of our channels.
Thank you for this My Nigerian My history Back in history knowledge of the history our students in schools 1981 1983 1966 1961 1985 1960 Back in history 1986 1993 1919 informative video Great video thank you for this this is right Back in history give thanks
From this series of coups it can clearly been seen and proven that Nigeria was created by force, it was never meant to be one nation. one day the truth will definitely prevail.
Mr Naretor you remember to mention that Dimka is a Tiv but unfortunately you causuosly forgot to mention that of those Nice guys that carried out the first Wicked Coup, what a life!!!.
@@SHEHUABDULLAHNDA-KOCHILA. Hmm!! Everyone knows where each of the coup plotters were from. Google also offers more insights about their origins. Lol. Many thanks sir.
That is why our country remain like this because the spirit of our then good leaders that supposed to build the country and grow our economic are still angry. The coup is the root cause of bad governance and poor leadership. May God help us and continue to bless Nigeria with competence leaders.
These Nigerian names have a curious similarity to names of the Luo of East Africa. For example: Oladipo Diya is similar to Odipo Deya; Augustus Aikhomu might as well be Augustus Okumu in Kenya, Uganda or Tanzania or South Sudan.
Ironsi and his men did not stop the coup. They only hijacked the coup from their juniors. He shiuld have handed over ti the most senior Minister , while Azikiwe was conviniently away on holidays
Some sources also state that all the Ministers whose lives were spared were terribly AFRAID 😨 and did not want to step into the shoes of the slain Prime Minister. They were scared that they might be killed by the rampaging soldiers. It was in such tensed situation that Nwafor Orizu, then Senate President, called on the most senior military 🪖 officer to take over the reins of power and that senior officer happend to be Gen. Aguiyi Ironsi.
Why didn't you say Ironsi an Igbo man foiled the first military coup? Why didn't mention that Maj. Adewale Ademoyega and Ifeajuna led the Lagos military coup? Ademoyega wrote a book entitled WHY WE STRUCK. Read and understand. Since you were mentioning coups in Nigeria, why did you omit Vatsa Coup of 1986? Why did you not mention Obasanjo/Yar'Adua Coup of 1995 and Diya Coup of 1997?
The video narrates coups that took place, not phantom coups that were orchestrated by Babangida against Mama Vatsa and later by Abacha against Obasanjo. The coups I have reported here are coups that took place. In any case, the video has mentioned that there were some attempted coups. Also, I have read Ademoyega's book more than twice. I have it in my library. Finally, Gen. Aguiyi Ironsi was an Igbo man. He was born Igbo and died Igbo. When he was murdered and buried in a shallow grave at Lalupon in Ibadan, his remains were later exhumed and flown home to Abia. Are you saying he wasn't Igbo?
@@backinhistory9 there is nothing like phantom coup. A coup is a coup and there must be evidence of planning, attempting to execute or actual execution of the coup. I don't think you know that the first coup in Nigeria(not first military coup) was planned and executed by Obafemi Awolowo in 1962. Onabamiro a federal commissioner then bore witness to this coup and it was confession that made Awolowo to be charged with treason. Why didn't you mention this coup?
I wish History could be reintroduced in our schools as a subject.
Learnt a lot through this video

@@backinhistory9 then why did you have to mention Tiv but unfortunately you refuse to mention Igbo?, that is the question I asked you!!!.

History is good
Aguiyi Ironsi didn't bring justice to the errant officers. Did he think everyone will just gloss over it and act as if nothing happened?
I want to go back am tired of dis present I swear
Good project
One of the major reason why Nigeria hasn't still found it's footings...🤦

Good!!! However, learn to mention a name to the right pictures

History indeed
And Yakubu Gowon take over power as Major General not Lt. Colonel noted please
Abacha coup was 93.
