Totally agree that the narrator has a soft spot for Shagari. The long list of "achievements" was embarrassing as they related to the delivery if projects rather than benefits to the people who elected them I was bemused that Shangai is credited with the Kaduna refinery which opened a few months after he assumed office and was obviously developed under the previous regime. However the most glaring omission is the failure to mention that in 1983, Shagari was elected to a second term in elections that were more blatantly rigged than those of 1979! As a university undergraduate at the time I can attest that while I'm not an advocate of military coups, the country was not up in arms about Shagar'is government being overthrown.
I love this channel but after this Shagari's story, you made me a firm believer of no one can tell history without being biased. This Shagari's story, I know it like the back of my hands. I believe you did not make your research well or something. Shagari ran the economy down and Nigeria was on an austerity program, per capita income in Nigeria slid from about $1,100 in 1982 to less than $300. If this is an Igbo man or Hausa saying this trash, it is pardonable. This is the reason why Yorubas will never grow even when they are the most educated
Actually, From 1967 thru 1983 and until Babangida/Abacha, Nigeria was blessed with good civilian and Military governments, who have the progress of the country at heart
I learned that Buhari was GOC in Jos at the time and he didn’t agree with Shagari’s decision of withdrawal of troops from our border in the NE, (some-extremist group) and some of Shagari’s contacts wanted lesser military prescience in the borders as they were smugglers. I don’t know if Buhari had any genuine reasons whatsoever which I doubt but this video made me appreciate Shagari a bit more.
Wow....He so much achieved within that 4 years. And he touched every region in terms of development. Nigerians and corruption, are 5&6 before 1960 and they are inseparable.
I shall live to see the end of the rest of these people who threw Nigeria into what it is now. Everything Shagari built to set this country on course was abandoned. 35+ years after, we are just trying to find the path again.
I love history, yes but I even love an organisation solely dedicated to relaying accounts of the past in an almost unbiased perspective (Yeah almost because sometimes, the stance of the creator can be perceived). Not so much I can do to support you but maybe not skipping the annoying ads and sharing the gospel of HistoryVille can pass as my widow's mite gesture. Thank you!
Is it a coincidence that buhari is paranoid whenever there's an uprising like the endsars movement as he believes they want to overthrow him just as he did to Shagari?
Good History from history Ville, Shagari was overthrown simply because he continued on the same path as his predecessor to unify the Country and rehabilitate the Igbos. The vice president was Jailed because he is the one investigating the corruption of PTF. Did anyone remember who was the Chairman of PTF during the late 70s??? a food for thought!!! You Nigerians with short memory!!! What is coming is far worst than what you have now!!! Continue with your Igbo Phiobie tendency.
Shagari was an honest and good president who did everything possible to give equal development to all the regions in Nigeria,I could remember then there was pipe born water running in all the states and 24hr electricity. Nobody left Nigeria to overseas then if not for studies. Military takeovers ruined Nigeria for life
Abiola was one of the guys that made sure Awolowo never became President. He was in cohort with Muslim Northerners. Thank God he paid for his betrayal on a more painful level than what he did for Awolowo. Karma is real
God why having me in this country,even before I was born Nigeria is already finished, I was born 1983 then CORRUPTION have already be in the system of Nigeria,hmmmmmmm
Oh dear! Poor you! Don’t worry hope is on the way, vote Sowore and you will see and enjoy a better Nigeria, but If you stand for division it’s also fine by me.
But this is actually not true, buhari knew nothing about the coup, he was brought in by some of his subordinates when other maj gen senior to him were not found at that moment.
You want to call a dog a bad name in order to hang it. Remember what Umaru Dikko said that Nigerian have not started to eat things in dunghill when Awolowo complain about the economy.
This is so full of error...6-3-3-4 under Shagari... Housing under Shagari...did you actually see these so called houses. Let's not white wash history here
I love this channel but this video is not as good as previous ones. This channel is usually objective and dispassionate but this video had a pro-shagarri undertone.
@@henryspence3656 We haven't had a coup in Nigeria that wasn't popularly accepted. Shagari's government had it's shortcomings which made the general public not to protest when it was toppled.

However, this time it was clear that he had a soft spot for Shagari.
you are really distorting facts, NPN, with shagari as the president, wae inept and corrupt, umoru Dikko, and task force on rice, Adisa Akinloye and his special name champagne, shagari as a human being was decent, but the people around him were all crooks, Again, Buhari was not the architect of the coup, that overthrew shagari, he was made the head of state because, he was the most senior in the military hierarchy, ask babangida, the coup plotter, who was the biggest Nigeria problem,

@@Belshagy I listened to this 9 months ago, i cant waste listening to it again. I also blacklisted for the lies he told in his documentary on civil war, the first coup and second coup.

Like i told you, you have to listen to all views (igbo, hausa, fulani and Yoruba) and deduce yours. Mine might also be biased but you should be able to defend everything with dates, facts, etc.

@@pdguru81 In the spirit of critical thinking... As you put it. Based on basic genealogy the fulani and northerners in their entirety do not even have a right to be in West Africa, they do not belong anywhere close to the shores of western africa!! The should go back to the sahara desert. Their abode since the 1200s!! No Nigerian should have to put up with invading nomadic tribes. And yes, the fact that the least qualified, the least educated people have the most geo-political influence in this contraption of a nation is the reason it is going backwards. The least in terms of IQ have produced the most Presidents, Only an idiot does not and would not see this as a clear aberration. Northerners should go and be great with their brothers in Niger. They are a bane to the cultural homogeneity of our society. With their low IQs they hold so much Geo-political sway... The nomadic settlers should be and would be at the bottom of the society if Nigeria was a meritocratic society!! Period. All of you "Cant we all get along" types are simply intellectual cowards.

This is the first time ever the truth is being told about Shagari. So much damage has been done to him in order to justify his overthrow.

As there is nobperfect government on the surface of the earth
It was very informative. Thank you
Omo the level of corruption then was a child's play when compared to what is going on now.
He was not corrupt as a person.Some of his colleagues were.
Same with Buhari, not corrupt but surrounded by corrupt politicians

Highly informative and well delivered. However, VWON was sited in Badagry and not Oyo. Thanks
You are absolutely right. Ibadan had Leyland Trucks and Vehicles Assembly plant. Bauchi had Styr tractors
Good constructive comment
@@henryspence3656 Because he is mature in the brain. Some would have corrected using abuse and curse. Thanks to his maturity
There was no Osun State during Shagari regime
Don't mind the guy. So many error
Great observation
Please Do a video on Buhari's Regime
Where did we get it wrong as a nation? Few years in office and he could do all this? What is wrong with the present day politicians
......Umaru Dikko, Akinloye, Buba Ahmed, Wayas, ...the list goes on, were absolutely AWFULLY corrupt.........

Buhari was the chairman of the PTF…
PTF was a creation of Abachas government - 1994 believe.
Its been long since they have been granting amnesty to terrorists. Nigeria's problem has been for long...
