Awolow wa the head of the government.

Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 4:33pm On Oct 29, 2010
I know you,may be confused by what I said. but let me help.

You see france had in west africa , what they call french Union.   The british had what they call Nigeria. 

Under the french Union there were region like  Benin Ivory coast, upper volta(burkina faso) etc. They were all region under the french union.  All of this region became a country.


While the British  had two union in west africa, which was called Nigeria and Gold coast . And britian had in the south of africa . Rhodesia union which consist of now zambia and zimbabwe.

The Gold coast consist of Ghana and British Togoland.   . Notice there was also french togoland.


The nigeria union consist of  region . west nigeria, east nigeria and north nigeria.

The western Nigeria area which was separate from the north had its on government.   Western Nigeria became a republic in 1957.  The republic of western Nigeria was form in 1957.

Please note , I used the word the Republic of Western Nigeria. When ever you attain self government. You also have attend a Republic.

See an example of Burkina faso.

So in 1957 the Yorubas had the Republic of Western Nigeria.  burkina faso became a republic in 1957 but got thier independent in 1960.


And if you look at the Nigeria indepedent act, it state clearly that the republic of Western Nigeria is under  the Queen of England. 

I am telling you, the Western Nigeria became a republic in 1957.  chief Obafemi awolowo became the head of government in 1957. see wikipedia for the defination of republic.  No military man wake up and terminate an appointment our people have won.

So what the independent act says is it can not be alter. Please get a copy of the independent act. No military man can alter the independent act.

in December 1955, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution advising the British government to hold a vote on the future of  ewe people of British Togoland.

UN General Assembly   tried to merge the Ewe people in gold coast and Togo together. On 9 May 1956, the UN nation conducted a referendum was held under UN supervision with the choice between formal integration the Ewe people of Gold Coast and the french Union of Togo.

What we are saying is that we should join benin republic.

You've still not convince me why yoruba should join Benini republic.When Awolowo was premier of the western region,the region was under the entity called Nigeria.
Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 5:37pm On Oct 29, 2010
You can google this. There was no country in the united nation called Nigeria in 1957. Please call the united nation to verify this information.

Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 11:15pm On Oct 29, 2010
The word nigeria was a description of an area that had 3 britian colonies. That why Awolowo called it a Geographical expression. It was just a name to describe an area by britian. And was never a country till 1960. There was no country called nigeria in 1957.

The following colony where under the french Union

colony of Benin
colony of  upper volta
colony of Ivory coast
colony of Guinea-Bissau
colony of  Mali
colony of  Niger
colony of  Senegal
colony of Togo


While the following colony where under the Niger area (means niger area= NigeriArea ) derive from river niger
colony of  Lagos.
colony of Western nigeria
Protectorate of Northern Nigeria
Protectorate of Eastern nigeria

The following colony where under the british are of  Rhodesia ( named after Cecil Rhode = Rhode Area= Rhodesi AREA)
Northern Rhodesia   (zambia)
southern Rhodesia  (zimbabwe)


Is like you saying the french union was a country. The french union was not a country.
The world Nigeria means the Niger Area. To represent colonies within the Niger area.  Which where under the Royal Niger company. My grandfather worked for the royal niger company. This is why i know the story very well.


Britain could have called the nigeria area , as the british union , but because britian had too many patch of colony, all not connected. But the french colony where all connected.

One of the other patch of colonies was southern africa where a miner called Cecil Rhodes was. And they named the two colonies in that area as Northern Rhodesia and southern Rhodesia, which later became zambia and zimbabwe.

This is how it happed. We should not be part of Nigeria at all, because in 1957 we ask for self government which is basically independent.  Even if you look at the so call independent act. It still ties Nigeria to the queen of england. 


Northerner said they terminated The Republic of Western Nigeria. Is that possible. Can the northern military do that. They do not have power to do that , if you read the Independent ACT careful. It can only be alter   by those who were elected then into paliament at that time. It void the termination of the Republic of Western Nigeria.


The North has no Power to terminate the Republic of Western Nigeria according to the independent Act . So we still have the Republic of Western Nigeria. One side to a party can not alter an agreement or document. it has to be both side of the party.

Yoruba people have not agree in anywhere to terminate the Republic of Western Nigeria. The north has no power to terminate it.  Even the present government in Nigeria has no power to terminate it. Read the first constitution and the independent act very careful.

have you heard of Anafi Alao, he is from Benin republic. He is Yoruba he sing in Yoruba. watch him.


Anafi Alao - Nifaji Lawa (Aye Lami Ajeku)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oE_1sf7qLg




This is egun egun in benin republic , what they are speaking is Yorubas, they understand it what they are saying.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWRxv7ji83k&feature=related



If you listen to King sunny Ade, he sang a sound called Awo egungun lo biren le se, awo gelede lo bire ne mo, bi obire koju koro, Oro agbe. (King sunny Ade
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIhmfZNBOE&feature=fvw )

What king sung ade, talk about is GELEDE. you would find Gelede in Yoruba culture. This is old man talking about Gelede. Which is also use in Yoruba benin republic.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Neehk7ZV94&feature=related

Beaf go and ask Ojukwu the biafra president if he has not seen Gelede in Yorubaland. He use to live in Lagos.

While Britian made a mistake in classifical of the north. Kwara and kogi state and now some area in Niger state, What was the former kwara should have been part of the Republic of western Nigeria which are areas in red, It was a mistake. while the green was also part of western colony.

Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 4:09pm On Oct 30, 2010
The borgu area in Niger state was part of kwara state, It was Ibrahim babaginda who remove it into his own state. It was never part of Niger state. for his personal reason. he wanted the kainiji Dam  in his state. It should not be part of Niger state, but part of kwara, because you have kaiama in Kwara state.

There are very few Nupe people in Kwara state. If you look at oro compare to Lafiaji. You would see Oro is bigger than lafiagi. over 95% of the people of Kwara state are Yoruba people.

Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 12:52am On Oct 31, 2010
Ibrahim babaginda was the one who remove borgu local govt from kwara state and put it in Niger state. He should not have done that, even must people from borgu speak Yoruba. and borgu people are in benin republic. the borgu people prefer to be in Benin republic with other Borgu people than in Nigeria.

Matthew kereku is part borgu. His father is Borgu, former president of Benin republic. It show you the level of wrong doing in out past.

Are you serious ? So Nigeria colonies were under the control of Royal Niger Company ? I thought the company was just a slave-trading company ?
The independent act did not tie Nigeria to the crown.That aspect was in the 1946 richard's constitution that vested the mineral resources and land in the crown and also gave more powers to the governor in the appointments and deposition of chiefs but these cases were since addressed by the macpherson's constitution in 1951 before independence after much criticism by the nationalists.
Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 7:34pm On Oct 31, 2010
The royal niger company . It was for commercial company . The Royal niger company fought for the abolition of slavery in Nigeria. The company was for commercial reason.

The independent act ties nigeria to the queen. It state that nigeria shall remain the domain of the Queen of England. see copy.

For you to see, we are not part of nigeria. Can you see any Yourba name on this list.

Is there federal character in your constitution. Abuja look at the names of the directos of Abuja. You have 8 people. Do you see a Yoruba man on this list. There is no single Yorubaman as a director of the ABuja. And you talk of one nigeria.

out of 12 directors appointed to the FCT. NO single Yorubaman.

Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by MaiSuya(m): 7:46pm On Oct 31, 2010
You mean there are just 12 directors in total? Or you filtered out some to prove your point
Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by Nobody: 7:47pm On Oct 31, 2010
So which company was responsible for the slave business transaction ?
Re: YorubaPresident2048: North has No power to stop Republic Of Western Nigeria by becomrich4: 7:54pm On Oct 31, 2010
My grand father work for the Royal niger company after slavery was abolished. It was the royal niger company who forced Britian to abolished slavery in Nigeria.
Not every white person deal with slavery. some where christain who fellow thier christain believe.  John holt.

Becomrich, Are the Yorubas the only ones in Nigeria. What difference does it make if there's no Yoruba man among the 12 directors.
