After the Coup | Nigeria | January 1966

Thank you for sharing this historical piece, and many others you have shared on shared channel!

Great work you're doing, giving us a glimpse into what transpired and led us to where Nigeria is today.

Nigerians have been condemning politicians since independence, yet Nigerians cannot take a stand against the corrupt politicians. We hope Nigerians will be able to make a statement in 2023... Thank you for the work you do here sir.

Lovely video

That man is so eloquent....
He didn't foresee what is to come for him and his people.
Too bad

Sorry. I am at sea here. Did the presenter imply that the Sardauna SENT the ‘coup’ soldiers? What is the evidence?

Nigerians hasn't learned anything over the past 60 and more that no one be it a military personnel or a politician will put the people's interest before he's own this country needs to put the federal government and state in it's place the feds needs to be the military and foreign affairs and an independent CBN that can't print money expect certain conditions are melt
We also needs to drop our idiotic environmental and industry regulation they're unsustainable for a nation as big Nigeria

Thank you always for this great documentary work

How did the Nigerian English accent change so quickly

So the coup was supported by the people. Interesting.

First republic politicians had no clue about how to build a viable nation.
With no ideas about what to do, they simply used the country's wealth to give themselves luxurious life, leaving the country to drift.
Successive Administration followed the same pattern, and the country has been drifting since independence.
Oil wealth gave citizens a false sense security, even though there has never been strategic thinking and plans for the future.
Spiraling oil price has unraveled our lack of sustainable economic strategy. Till now, there is still no structure in place to diversify the economy, create economic opportunities, and arrest further descent into insecurity and chaos. Nigeria is already a failed State because of her clueless leaders

The diction of those was so nice
