Brigadier Ogundipe: "The Most Rugged Yoruba Man by LokoH(m): 10:47am On Apr 03, 2022
A popular yoruba adage says: 'the most stubborn Ondo man is a house boy in Ijebu'.

Then I remember Brigadier Babafemi Ogundipe from Ago-Iwoye Ijebu.

Is that all they have as strong men ?

One of them in Lagos(Mr Muphy) laughed "hahahahaha Ogundipe run". As if it is commendable.

No wonder they are hell-bent on staying with us as one(unity beggers).

Lilly-livereds. Non of them ever attempted coup in history.

They are only fast in one thing - looting people's shop.

Women wrapper and their women infidels

cool


Gen Ogundipe was fully aware that Gen Ironsi was the Leader of the Jan 1966 Coup and he knew the Part that Ojukwu alsoplayed in it


All the other Stories are Cover up Propaganda .



Ironsi and Ojukwu were part of the Coup that was why Azikiwe was warned to escape but the Coup plotters insisted on waiting for Sardauna to return from Saudi Arabia 2 days earlier before Carrying out the Coup


https://dailytrust.com/amp/british-intelligence-reports-on-how-ironsi-took-over-3
Ojukwu arrested and took a man off the London bound Aeroplane at Kano because he thought he was Prime Minister Balewa's Brother


Azikiwe sent a Telegram to Gen Ironsi from London on the 16th of January addressing Ironsi as the Head of State

Ironsi didn't take over Power until the following day

That meant Azikiwe already knew of the Plan by Ironsi to take Power before it happened

It was the British Commonwealth Office from where Miss Emery who was Azikiwe's Secretary had sent the Telegram that informed Azikiwe that Dipcherma the Northern Minister of Transport was acting in Balewa's Place as Head of the Rump Cabinet and not Gen Ironsi and that it would be a good idea to resend the Telegram to Dipcherma instead


Below is the Video of Azikiwe on the day he left for his Medical Vacation in October 1965 he was well enough to inspect a guard of honour and take the Salute

So why didn't he attend the Commonwealth leaders Conference which held in Lagos 2 days before the Jan 15th 1966 Coup ?

Azikiwe definitely knew what was coming and he knew it was going to be very bloody
