IGBO COUP FALLACY — The Cross-Examination That Changes Everything For decades, Nigeria’s 1966 coup has been branded an “Igbo coup.”
But where exactly did that narrative come from? During the 1980s Truth and Reconciliation hearings (popularly called the Oputa Panel), a retired colonel publicly listed five officers and claimed that Major Adegboyega Ademoyega was Igbo. In this video, that same retired colonel is placed under cross-examination by a lawyer — and what follows tells a very different story. No propaganda.
No ethnic hate.
Just raw testimony and documented history. Watch closely as the claim begins to fall apart under questioning. — 🎯 In this episode: ✅ Where the “Igbo Coup” narrative originated
