Era of Lagos/Ibadan propaganda is over we are in digital era

This is good

Delta and Benin experienced highest marginalization from Yorubas, in Western Region where the non-Yoruba speaking Delta and Benin provinces pressed for a separate region. A referendum was conducted, which proved positive for their request.

This is getting really interesting.
I think my watch just began.

Bros, check it sir.


You are gradually going overboard by this your unwanted display of victims mentality and delusion of persecution of the Igbos by the Yorubas.



Yorubas were never part of the Eastern Region and nothing concern them with Eastern Regional Cabinet.

More at Op

Minorities had 9 ministers out of the 26 ministerial posts.
That's more than 1/3 of the ministerial list . Considering they constituted 1/3 of the Eastern population. That was fair enough.

The Constitional requirements for the referendum;


1) Two third majority votes the Western Regional House of Assembly, Ibadan.

2) Two third majority votes in the National Assembly.




The minority tribes in the Benin and Delta provinces on their own couldn't have succeeded without the support of the Western Regional Assembly.

When the Western minority tribes got a region of their own called Midwest Region, the existing Western Regional Government staged a send forth in the Western Parliament, ushering them into their own prosperity and self government.

The Yorubas did not cry over it till eternity.

Till today, you still can't get over the fact that the Eastern minority tribes have a region of their own, so you are determined to attache by force or claim their is nothing called SouthSouth.

Do you see the SW doing attache by force with the SS, despite that Edo and Delta were formerly Western Region?

Stop wasting your time on Yorubas whenever you are called out by your former minority tribes that now have their independence from you for good.

Any cabinet list even by a Fulanizing Buhari, would always reflect the divisional/zonal composition of that region or state.

So nothing new in showing a cabinet list reflecting that minorities represented their minority zones in the larger regional government.

The North and West had similar cabinet lists because the divisional/zonal composition of each region was represented in the regional cabinet, just as such representation is what was expected in the regional Parliament of the 3 regions.

Did Ibibio, Annang, Oron, Ijaw and other minorities press to be separated from eastern region

Thank you and Pazienza. You guys are picking up and crushing every propaganda one by one.


These past weeks has been a restless one for propagandist and our enemies.

Remind us from which region Isaac Adaka Boro declared an independent NigerDelta Republic?

Why did Adaka Boro get tired of seeing Ijaw oil wealth develop Enugu at the detriment of the minorities where the oil was derived?

Very restless indeed with multiple threads trying to explain why you are not landlocked, or why the Eastern minorities should have never been given their freedom.

Even this topic is borne out of that your restlessness.

Out of the 10 Eastern region provincial commissioners.

Eastern minorities had 5, while Igbos had 5. If you count Ogba people in Rivers who are currently claiming non Igbos as minorities, then minorities would have 6 commissioners, while Ndiigbo had just 4.

Notice that the commissioner for Onitsha province was an Ogba man by name Masi.

And that the one for PH was not an Igbo, Ikwerre or Okirika man.

NCNC picked then according to where they had resided and contributed to the society.
Masi might be an Ogba man, but he was an Onitsha province boy as he lived and grew there, hence why he was made the province commissioner, same with Etta Ogon who was the commissioner for PH province despite being from Ikom. He was a Ph boy.

That's how NCNC ran the East.

seems it wasn't as rossy as i thought in the western region. History is very important.

OP.
Eastern Regional Parliamentary Secretaries :

They got 6 out of 16. That's still more than the 1/3 of the population that they constituted.

Liar. !

Which sent fort.?

Mid-westerners were given less than 48hrs to leave the west.

So any random person that opens a thread on a faceless forum writing anything that is embarrassing about Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe must be my (Yoruba) brother and that my brother is exactly the same thing as the Yoruba ethnic group?

If you have an axe to grind with anybody ,be it Yoruba, Fulani, Efik or a Jew, take it up with that person and stop this childish ethnic profiling.


Everyday, more serious and intelligent Igbo and Yoruba people are making business deals, professional collaborations and romantic affairs while you and other e-warriors seat here all day, promoting tribal bigotry that is likely to robb you of necessary links and opportunities you need to go far in life.

Eastern Economy

Trade in palm produce was a dominant feature in the economy of Eastern Nigeria. Though not indigenous to the region, the palm tree provided fronds for roofing of houses in the villages, palm wine for drinking and palm kernels as source of foreign exchange income. After World War II, prices sought for palm produce skyrocked and by 1954, Palm produce generated an income of 54 million pounds. However, the prices stabilized by the middle of the 1950s. Employment in farming and agriculture was a significant source of income for many residents engaged in yam farming and fishery. In the 1960s, the government promoted rubber, cocoa and palm grove schemes to increase the output of cash crops. The government also established farm settlements at Ohaji, Igbariam, Boki, Ulonna, Erei, Uzo-Uwani and Egbema to encourage agriculture.
Trading of goods was also a major part of the regional economy. In 1954, imports to the region was about 25 million pounds a year which were brought into the country by a few European firms but distributed by thousands of traders within the region. The trade in imported goods such as dried fish, motor parts, textiles goes on along with the trade in local foodstuff.
In industry, the coal mines of Enugu managed by the Nigerian Coal Corporation and Nigersteel's rolling mill which used steel scraps to produce mild steel bars were one of the few coal mines and steel plants in operation in West Africa in 1963. During the NCNC led government, a cement factory was established at Nkalagu, Nigerian Breweries chose a stout factory at Aba, a Tobacco and glass making plant was located at Port Harcourt. Presidential Hotel Port Harcourt and Enugu was built.

Statutory corporations
[b]The task of managing the trade and income earned in palm oil kernels was given to the Eastern Nigeria Marketing Board and the Eastern Nigeria Finance Corporation. The Eastern Nigeria Marketing Board came into effect in 1954 and was given the responsibility to manage the region's cash or export crops. [/b]The board assigned grade to palm produce according to free fatty acid content and then assigns producer prices to each grade. The board conducts the purchase of palm oil and kernels that are to be exported through the use of licensed buying agents and engages in the evacuation of the produce to the ports for export. Most of the profits from the sales of export produce is transferred to the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation. The development corporation was involved in producing quality palm oil kernels for the export markets through erection of pioneer oil mills and the development of other export crops such as cocoa, cashew nuts, rubber and coconut. Rice cultivation was also encouraged in Abakaliki and Ogoja

The use of 'State of origin' as a basis for gaining appointments or admission started during the Military era.

Religious dichotomy in our National polity became prominent (which has more or less now become a National tradition) started around 1986.

During the 1979 Presidential election,

UPN candidates (Awolowo/Umuadi) and NPN candidates (Azikiwe/Audu) were Christian-Christians.

Members Eastern region scholarship board.

For those minorities who claimed Igbos marginalized them in the scholarship board.

The board had 5 Igbos and 5 Minorities. See them below. It would have been impossible for any lopsided list composing of more Igbos than the 2/3 population being reflected, without the minorities members of the board raising objections.
Of course the willink commission members after interviewing members of Eastern scholarship board and looking at the list of approved scholarship by the board and their ethnicity, waved off the allegations of Igbo dominating the scholarship positions as unfounded lies.
