    OBA Adeoye Your attempt at a documentary like this is commendable, but it has fallen far shot of the actual event that unfolded. Nine minutes is too short to narrate even a summary of what happened on 15 January 1966. I will advice you to meet all the personae dramatist that are still alive and gather data from them and do a balanced reportage, if you are doing it for the progress of the nation. If not you will only be opening old wounds that are yet to heal. All we know is that 5 Majors , 4 Igbos and one Yoruba, set out in the night of 15 Jan 66 to carry out a coup. At the end of their exercise, they killed civilian and military leaders of the; northern, western and mid-western regions of Nigeria and left the civilian and military leaders of the eastern region intact to go scot-free. That was what triggered the initial reaction against the Igbos. This is a fact no one can change. You can start your story from there. If your aim is to be objective.

    honestly, this documentary could have been better...like wtf...it is so shallow, no critical analysis at all. 9 wasted minutes. That said, I think the Nation of Nigeria was started on the wrong foundation, there was no structure, no collective vision. Nothing binds us as a people, not even the first leaders had a common bond. they thought they did, until the British left and their differences were highlighted and every one sought their individual pockets. Until the foundation/structure of Nigeria is revisited and renegotiated, the status quo will never change. Period!

    If we fail to have a honest conversation about this coup we won't learn the real lessons in it. My lessons are: 1. May God give us luck in all our endeavors 2. Even if you are running the best government with the most pristine of policies, you should never condone corruption, waste and lavishness. This will only breed hate and the masses will feel that you are underperforming 3. Absolute power is not necessary for progress. It was Ahmadu Bello's search for absolute power that destabilized the west and created the political environment that required his ousting. Nigeria cannot have a king, the president or whoever will only emerge based on consensus and not by the willpower of one strong man 3. If you set out to catch a thief, catch him and met justice fully. Ironsi's politics is what messed everything up. He could have put an end to everything by trying Ifeajuna and co properly, not relocating Nzeogwu to the east and at least satisfying the thirst of the Northerners. 4. Ironsi was naive in addressing the tribal wars that were starting under his feet. Promoting those eastern officers was unwise. Know what is obtainable and sticking to it is a key success factor

    The coup did not really help us, rather it was the source of inter-tribal and ethnic wars. The worst civilian rule is still better than a military administration. Think about this, suppose Nigeria had been practicing democracy since 1966, there is a very good chance that we could have matured and develop a functioning system. Military government drew us backward which still affect us until now. This is why we have recycled military administrators coming back to government. In my opinion a sustained democracy would have been much better...

They intended to put Awolowo as the prime minister...i know that you are not going to talk about it because this one involved a Yoruba person!

But miraculously the eastern leader Ironsi escaped.but the northern and western leader wr excuted. The northern approached the yorubas and said they killed akintola but let ironsi escape how can you trust them and that's when the west and north joined forces against the east.

    All development projects on Indian land must be reviewed and authorized by the government, a process that is notoriously slow and burdensome. On Indian lands, companies must go through at least four federal agencies and 49 steps to acquire a permit for energy development. Off reservation, it takes only four steps. This bureaucracy prevents tribes from capitalizing on their resources.

Mind you, the then highest ranking military personnel, Brig Gen Zakari Maimalari was killed during the coup along with his wife on his wedding day at the reception! What's says u about the above fact? However the fact that some soldiers from a particular section of a country did something wrong decades ago, it does not warrant the apparent marginalization of decendants of their kinsmen who have no hand or idea about it!
