All these Nigeria generals were they trained to defend Nigeria or topple government?
I really don't believe nothing from what Lt Gen Bamaiyi said, he should have being able to say all of those statement of head if all what he said was the truth, anyway God knows best
from my own listening I observed that Al mustapha was the one who leaked the whole thing to his boss Gen sanni abacha because the man is very loyal to his c in c
He who tells thruth tells it from from nowhere but his head, why reading from the paper? Intellectual have you seen that ?
Diya obviously conceived the coup. But I’m very sure Bamaiyi was planning a mini coup inside the Main coup! In the spirit of reconciliation and truth, Diya should have accepted responsibility.
Allah is beneficial and merciful
He wasnt poisoned; if you listen to the video, you will he that abasha was already terminally ill.
Can you post Videos with General Victor Malu's session I cant find it online
Lt. Gen Jeremiah Useni
Bamaiyi bail himself out by reporting to Abacha probably because the conduct of Diya during the planning was capable of compromising concealment. I believe it was Diya/Bamaiyi coup no doubt
This was a coup of Diya/Bamaiyi.
Full documentation should be released not deleted, obscured and incomplete videos... If the truth be known, let's see everything unedited including this evil genius' cross-examination...
@Yara Dele Am a very big fan of M.K.O Abiola but after hearing how he betrayed Samuel Dol and his family and others he deserved what he got sorry.
When was this videos commission
ure mad abacha was murdered by hussieni & his hench men, didnt die of any 4king illness
My conclusion on this coup was, Bamaiyi and Diya planned the coup. Bamaiyi leaked it to Abacha, in case it failed, while internally acting sincerely with Diya to effect the coup. Abacha planted AlMustafa and Sabo to play along with them. Bamaiyi went on with the plan, wanting to swindle AlMustafa and go on with the coup. AlMustafa and Sabo played smarter than him and stopped the coup. Diya and his boys were arrested, while Bamaiyi and his sides were exonerated. The Good (AlMustafa), the bad (Diya) and the ugly (Bamaiyi).
Bamaiyi,Nigerians are still suffering today because of your bad minitary regime.
@ The Lumeri, if Bamaiyi was lying, what of the major Fadipe's withness
This man must be evil
As made believed Diya hatched the (setup)coup with Azeeza and asked Azeeza to inform bamaiyi then bamaiyi went straight to Abacha to report the coup because he didn't want to be part of it. Now why was Azeeza not arrested for the coup because he didn't expose the plan to Abacha but to further it it as instructed by Diya. The coup was a set up to eliminate Diya and co that's why they made him the chairman of it
