    Thank you for this documentary. My grandfather was Chief S L Akintola, a great friend of Sir Ahmadu Bello. Sadly they were killed on the same day. In fact my grandfather saw him a day before the coup and said he had heard rumours about an uprising and Sir Ahmadu said such a thing was not possible in Nigeria but sadly he had too much trust in the traitors who killed them both.

      Your grandfather almost killed chief Obafemi Awolowo if not for that very coup you guys nicknamed the Igbo coup and he also caused the death of many Nigerians just like his northern counterpart. It was the bloods that your grandfather and his northern counterpart drew first and were ready to draw futhermore that attracted the first coup of 15 January 1966 the truth that nobody wants to say. Those young Nigerian army officers were saviours that did not succeedin their mission to save Nigeria from the hands of the Fulanis if not Nigeria would not have been the way it is today but those who have made up their minds to call it Igbo affair refused to see that coup in it's true light and that is why the same ethnic cleansing that has been happening before the creation of Nigeria and was going on before the first coup is still going on today. And who started it and is still doing it today? Uthman Danfodio, Ahumudu Bello his son who once claimed that Nigeria is the estate of the Fulanis, Buhari who has gone a long way to prove me right, El Rufia who his utterance and action against the southern Kaduna people have also proven me right and other Fulanis who are like mind. These same Fulanis are out to use Tinunbu and Shettima against the Nigerian people but not all have seen the hand writing on the wall.

    He also established Queen Elizabeth college Ilorin, the first Female Secondary school in Northern Nigeria, He could have located it somewhere else in the core North, but being a detrabilised leader, he chose Ilorin, a yoruba speaking area of the then Northern Region.. My love for Sardauna is immeasurable and i can only pray Allah swt grant him Jannatul Firdawsi. Even my grand father who was an Ilorin indigene benefitted from his Northernization policy.. Anytime i remembered how he was brutally mudered, it brings tears and a bit of anger to my heart.

    According to historical facts, I think Ahmadu Bello was not corrupt. I however question his open hatred for the Igbos when he granted an interview with a British Journalist. He never mentioned the Yorubas so it was clear that he had a dislike for the people of Igbo extraction. Let's not forget that the interview he had with the foreign Journalist was well before the military coup d'etat in 1966.

It was a military coup is just unfortunate, that most of the leaders in the top brass of the military tactical unit were from with Easterner region nevertheless, they had a lot of northerners and Westerners in the same coup. At this particular time, the military was one unit, this young Major spoke with confidence You will know he was only carrying out the orders of the top commanders of the military but now Nigeria tells story like it was the East alone on this and one sided, call it what ever you like something or someone must be blamed the story doesn’t add up

    I like how the Curator Arewa House stuttered when talking about the "unpopular" nothernization policy. How can a policy be to recruit "only" northerners in a country they share with others? "Northerners first" would have been better than "Northerners only". Previous utterances probably caused his long stretched rift with Awolowo. He might not be corrupt but man, let us tell the truth, that man made instigating comments and played politics based on those statements. That was what Awolowo kept working against until he got checkmated by Bello.

    Nzeogwu cared about the North till he died.
    He also stood against Ojukwu's declaration of Biafra.
    The problem is that this channel is grossly biased and can't state the truth objectively.
    Sardauna controlled the NPC which was like today's APC.
    Mr. Obienu warned Sardauna and Zik, but Zik escaped, which is why he survived. If Bello left, he'd have survived too.
    Nzeogwu didn't betray the north. He was a revolutionary.
    The coup plotters planned to release Awolowo from prison and make him President because he wasn't a part of the electoral malpractice that happened in that year's elections.

    Facts should not be distorted.
    The coup leader as later revealed was not Nzeogwu but Ifeajunna.
    From the interview given by Nzeogwu, it was evident that he ( Nzeogwu) believed that it was a nationwide revolution. This was collaborated by other accounts.
    Nzeogwu was reported to have accused Ifeajunna of tribal consideration in carrying out the coup in Southern part of Nigeria.
    Anyway, I may be wrong but the coup plotters were cruel. Why not arrest the politicians and try them for corruption instead of killing them .

      It is very surprising that Ahmadu Bello exhibited so much hatred in the interview he granted a white journalist. He stated his hate for the ibos of how he will prefer to employ an European than employing an iboman. He also stated that the ibos were very domineering and that if you employ an iboman, that he will overthrow his masters. This exposes the fact that AHMADU BELLO has a lot of hatred for the ibos ,years before the coup.So,for any sincere person to say that the Nzeogwus/Ifeajunas coup was the beginning of the hate that the northerners have for the ibos is a lie from the pit of hell. Ahmadu Bello did not hide his hate for the ibos ever before the 1966 coup.

I can't speak regarding Sardauna at least not as much as I can speak regarding one of the "selfish and tribalistic men" - Awolowo. Not only did this "tribalistic and selfish man" institute universal free primary education but built schools (Local Authority Primary Schools)in even the remotest parts of Western Region. If necessary, I can mention the names of some of these new primary schools - I know them. The establishment of these schools eliminated the need for school children from walking several miles to and from schools in nearby villages. I know because I had in the primary school at least 10 kids who walked at least 2 miles one way to school. Actually I had in secondary school two classmates who started elementary school because of the the free primary education. Maybe it is a coincidence that many community Grammar Schools we're established in 1955 the year the free primary education started or soon thereafter. If necessary I can name many of such schools.
      This same tribalistic and selfish man established University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University) which is accessible to all Nigerians. How about Cocoa Marketing Board and the accompanying university scholarships. I know at least five beneficiaries of that scholarship. How about the 26-story Cocoa House and WNTV - first in Africa. I can go on and on about this "selfish and tribalistic" man - Awolowo.
      Overall I have two points - we should refrain from generalization, and we should not blame our predecessors (the Founding Fathers) for our deficiencies.

    Very bias of you not to mention Adewale Ademoyegun as part of the coup plotters. Infact he was part of the trio that made up the nucleus of the coup plotters(Ifeajuna, Adewale, and Nzeogwu). The rest were recruited based on who any of the trio can trust.
    Lt Col Fajuyi was approached, but didn't participate, instead gave his blessings.
    Hassan Katsina called Nzeogwu a revolutionary and cheered him after the coup.
    The coup was eminent, everyone was aware. Zik fled, Awo was in prison, Bello refused to flee, Akintola didn't flee, instead guarded himself with a sub machine gun. So they were all aware. Why didn't they run?
    Michael Opara was with a foreign diplomat and the coupist didn't want to draw foreign attention into it.
    Mind you, there were 4 regions as at then, 2 regions lost their premier, 2 didn't. But people always forget that. They tend to make it seem as though only premier of Eastern region survived.
    And we all know why those 2 premiers were assassinated. They were the cause of the chaos happening in the country as at then. Those two men imprison Awolowo and turned the west into a battle ground were people were being poured acid on the streets of Western Nigeria. You can read about operation Wetei.
    People only talk about the coup, but never the reason for the coup. If not for the coup. Bello would have burnt down western region, Awolowo might have been killed, cause he was accused of treason. He was accused of trying to overthrow Balewa's govt. That enough reason to kill him.
    If Nzeogwu had not carry out that coup, other group of soldiers might have done that.
    Infact, there was jubilation the following morning being Saturday 16th January 1966, as everyone was happy, until it was tribalized, especially by the British.
    Bello might not have accumulate ld wealth for himself, but he was the reason for the wild chaos in the west.
    However, the coupist should have arrested Bello instead of killing him.
    Don Okafor made a mistake not arresting Ironsi.
    Ifeajuna was a coward to flee when the situation was getting out of hand.
    Ademola Ademoyegun made a mistake by not forcing his way into the radio station to make an announcement, instead he went on chasing Ironsi.
    Nzeogwu shouldn't have handed northern Nigeria to Ironsi.
    In all, let's learn from history and try to do better.
    Thank you.

    Why is there no discussion of how the Sardauna helped Akintola foment trouble in the West? Why not acknowledge the incontestable fact that there were non-Igbos among the plotters? Why not explore the explicit Northernization policy in depth? Why not acknowledge Ojukwu's role in blunting the coup in Kano and surrounding areas? Why not mention the possibility of Awolowo becoming a major beneficiary of the coup? Why not mention the out-of-proportion pogrom that would follow the coup in the North, There is NO doubt that the Jan 15 plotters acted in clumsy, amateurish, and lopsided ways in some of the planning and execution of the coup.
