@edmundobilo: Inside the Mind of a Coup Plotter Richard Akinnola, author of Fellow Countrymen: The Story of Coup D’etats in Nigeria, reflects on the dark psychology of Nigeria’s coup years. He questions what drives soldiers to the point where friendship and loyalty mean nothing, where the ambition to seize power turns comrades into targets. Drawing on the dramatic overthrows of Yakubu Gowon and Murtala Mohammed, Akinnola exposes the chilling reality of how men who once shared barracks and laughter could end each other’s lives in the quest for control. #NigeriaHistory #MilitaryCoups #FellowCountrymen #RichardAkinnola #YakubuGowon
