Op:
You must include Zik on your list of those that lacked foresighted of how Nigeria will turn out 50 years after.

Ojukwu is blameless in that regard
He tried his best to liberate his people from the shackles of one Nigeria
For that, even Zik hated him and worked against him.

Local firm, Addax, strikes oil in Imo
Nigeria's oil and gas industry has recorded another landmark, with Addax Petroleum announcing an onshore oil discovery from the Njaba 2 well (formally Okaka) currently drilling in the eastern part of the OML124 license area of Imo State. Addax Petroleum has a 100 per cent working interest under a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) covering the Oil Mining License 124 (OML124) area, whereby the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) is the concessionaire. The new discovery may likely become one its largest fields in Nigeria. Addax currently produces approximately 6000 barrels per day from the Ossu and Izombe fields in OML124, which is located within Imo State. President and Chief Executive Officer of Addax, Mr. Jean Claude Gandur said, "I am extremely proud to report an excellent start in 2009 with this successful exploration result in Nigeria as it is a leading discovery that has the potential to be one of our largest fields in Nigeria. The Njaba discovery is the first exploration well to be drilled in OML124 since the mid-80's and these results will increase the production potential of the license area considerably, as well as significantly upgrade the remaining undrilled prospects."http://www.scandoil.com/moxie-bm2/news/addax-petroleum-hits-new-discovery-in-nigeria.shtml

I think we've flogged this issue in this plast and we won't get anywhere if we keep going back to the past. The question now should be what do we want? I'm asking all the region and ethnic groups in Nigeria. Do you want to remain in this cesspit called Nigeria united by 419, corruption, Boko haram etc or do you want to try your luck as independent nations.

@Jason , u made my day on this thread. What's the name of the books you used in your posts.

This is exactly why this topic has exploded.

1) The absence of Zik name amongst the listed culprits leaving him with an unscathed image while mud is being thrown the way of Awo.
2) The tacit attempt by the OP to vindicate Ojukwu while Indicting Awo.
3) Why is no one defending Gowon (Afterall he was in the same government in which Awo served as Finance minister)

I still dey laugh o !

Like thunderbolt, the information enshrined in this thread hit me like WOAH!

If you are ever looking for the meaning of enlightenment, then I suggest you read this thread. Lies can go on for years but it takes only one day for the truth to trump it. For years, i've listened to ibos harp on about the Yoruba betrayal without really carrying out an in depth search into the true story and now, oh now, I know so much more.

I thought I respected Awolowo before, but now, I could almost idolize him. He makes me feel so proud to be Yoruba and displayed in those transcripts what I have always known about Yorubas. We are indeed a unique race full to be brim with intelligence. It is a shame that he is no longer with us. I weep for the day my nation joined Nigeria but I thank him for his foresight and uprightness. I have hope now that Yoruba would rise from this either within or without Nigeria, we will be great again.

Thank you so much Jason, I feel indebted to you for publicising these vital information in the history of the sham called Nigeria. I also would like to thank Katsumoto and T9ksy, they always maintained that Ojukwu wanted to rule us but I didn't quite understand it then but now I know that Awolowo was and still is an upright man, a very special man to people of our race.

Bro, sorry for the late reply. It was on Nigeria village square and I simply copied the whole text. The one posted was both the interaction between the late Sage Awolowo and the Great Ikemba Ojukwu. It also contains the stance of Awolowo regarding the North and the East (second article). I hope you learnt alot by reading it . . .

You've started again, katsumoto this, katsumoto that, as if Katsumoto was with Awolowo when Awolowo was defending the descendants of Oduduwa. You must either be in your late teens or early twenties, still very impressionable.

Hopefully, men dont exploit your naivete. Just be careful how you hero-worship people on an anonymous website like this, so you dont get caught hero-worshiping a future Anthony Weiner.

me wey I dey do hero worshipping, i complain to you? Yes, i'm very impressionable, gullible paapa but na my headache be dat. Abeg take panadol for your headache, kilode?

if you have yawa with katsumoto you better settle it with him but right now, I am seeing him as a hero, kajiko? Pshew!

Moreover, when have I ever sang the praise of the said person? It seems you're getting your wires twisted somewhere.

Didn't Aguiyi Ironsi an ibo military officer introduced unitary system into Nigeria? Was ibos not the to vote for one nigeria? Awo knew this country can never be for life so he voted against but like the saying that 'Majority can be stupid sometimes' now some new boys on the block want to change igneous rock to sedimentary rock, it just dont happens like that, it was ibos who lack foresight in the first instance when there was the chance to say no to one Nigeria but to reasons best known to ibos they went the other way round. Just take it as you make.

^^^ Igbos are not complaining, are they and Yes, Awolowo was the MOST REALISTIC (mere geographical expression), Azikwe had a DREAM (united ONE Nigeria) but Ahmado Bello had the FORESIGHT (the fear of Southerners over ruling his people). This is my opinion . .  and by the way, trust me, Igbos are not suffering neither are Yorubas but Northerners are the ones that are suffering because most menial but HONEST jobs are done by Northerners NOT southerners . . .

Of course, you dont have to complain. Our elders say, "Ti omode ba gegi loko, agba lomo ibi to ma wo si."

I already know how it will end. i am just fulfilling my duty as the elder emeritus of NL, making sure naive young girls like you dont fall prey to online predators.

Half oro is enough for omoluabi, that is the omoluabi with a brain. That said, it is your life, thats probably how you get through life; hero-worshiping h/o/r/n/y people old enough to be your father who would eventually exploit you to their hearts satisfaction, leaving you heart broken and scorned.

Ahmadu Bello definitely had the foresight. His question for his people's dominance of Nigeria continues to this day. That is why his people revere him like a saint.

He certainly did. He knew CLEARLY the fate of his people in Nigeria with the Yorubas, Igbos and SSoutherners; and he did what he could to protect his people from the "southerners" while also uniting the North and spreading Usman danfodio's empire . .

@ Ezeuche,  How was Awolowo callous

EzeUche:

Do a simple test

Is Awo reverred by the people he represented?
Is Bello reverred by the people he represented?
Is Zik reverred by the people he represented?

Awolowo has never been elected to represent the interests of the people of the East, why do you think he should have put their interests ahead of or at par with the interests of those who he represented?
