There is nothing wrong with what he said. He clearly stated in the full version of this video that northerners have no place in the civil service of the east and west and that is why he came up with his northernisation policy. a man from Kaduna cannot insist that Lagos or IMO state governments must employ him in their state civil service. That is what Ahmad bello was saying and if you must know, he was right!

Why do you even bother yourselves with those whose only grouse is that a Northern premier was pro-North with his policies.

Were their own regional premiers developing policies to the advantage of the other competing regions?

They wanted the premier to foolishly open the doors to people who would have now been boasting of how they were the ones to help the educationally disadvantaged North to develop herself. They easily forget that each region was conceptualized to develop herself while competing with the other regions.

Monies paid to such employees from the North's resources would have been keeping families in the South well fed, while the Northern youths who had no chance of competing in the South would have been left to swell the ranks of the already vast almajiri.

A Northernization policy for the North in an era of regionalism is as patriotic a leader would ever get.
You acknowledge your weaknesses and ensure you do everything to overcome the disadvantage.

If only present state governments and the federal government were this interested in the wellbeing of the people they swore to serve.
The sick and irrational anti-igbo sentiments from one of the so-called founders of one Nigeria which you obviously overlooked was also an act of patriotism?

Very wrong. Although Nigeria at the time was constituted of regions at the same time there was a federalisation push. That's why its called "Nigeria" not North Nigeria. That's what Awolowo, Azikiwe and other's were fighting for. It's all well and good to try to overcome your weaknesses like you've alluded to. However if your method of approach is to cause harm in the process then you've failed before you've even started. Since you have lauded his comments and approach can I now ask you how the Northernization policy has helped them thus far?

It was northern region then so northernization of the northern region was in order. Northernization policy then meant having northerner maning the affairs of the region. Wats wrong with that? Name a state in the southeast that has a commisioner or 2 or 3 senior government official from other regions. If u can't then u all are greedy hypocrites

Even awolowo turned the western house of assembly into a den of tribalism.
The eastern region were too engrossed with regional progress to bother about national tribalism, which was why the eastern region was the most prosperous of that era.

With the knowledge of hindsight, I believe the words of the Sarduana concerning a specific immigrant tribe in his domain, were actually prophetic.

He knew who he was dealing with, and ensured he was not fooled to put his already disadvantaged people under more disadvantage.

Yes we all know the famous prosperity of the eastern region. However we cannot remember what infrastructure it developed that other regions did not have, or what welfare policies it established for its inhabitants.

What is to be remembered is that they are still crying that the North denied them jobs meant for Northerners.

It's good to allow your brain kick into gear before you speak. It would have helped you. Where is the wisdom in sowing seeds of discord? If anyone is tribal is it not the one asking for the exclusion of others. He openly admitted Igbo ambition and hard work ethic. Is it a crime to thrive to further one's self? He has admitted that one group have ability whilst the other group need special help to move forwards. Whose fault is that then?

It's like being a teacher and saying one group of your class is too intelligent and outdoing the others therefore you will find a way to impede their brilliance so the other sector of the class can also do well. Terrible and devilish ideology.

The ibos are terrible people....let us stop being politically correct....in my opinion....Ahmadu bello was right about them....do not forget that they later killed him in front of his wife n children....animals.....and they were even rejoicing until the......northerners dealt them a bad hand.... angry

You are reading Ahmadu Bello upside down. That is clearly not what he's saying. We have all watched the full version of the video. He is advocating the furtherance of Northerners to the detriment of all Nigerians. He spoke like other tribes are not Nigerians as well, like the North was a foreign country and other parts of Nigeria was made up of aliens. He is advocating the exclusion of others to favour some. If you want to empower your people you would have pushed for education, enlightenment and investment in the local economy and infrastructure.

It's not fluke that the same region although having held power the longest still have no appreciable dividends from their tenure in power. Whose fault is that then. It's like going to beat up your neighbours children because your's are non-entities.
You got him wrong. Ahmad bello premier northern region not prime minister of Nigeria. He had the opportunity of being the prime minister but he refused and chose to be premier of the north instead. If he wanted to northernise Nigeria he would have accepted the prime minister position and do just that, but he stayed as premier of the north so as to develop the north. He was killed before he realised that dream.

We can see who the original tribalists are?
Azikiwe and the eastern region were playing sophisticated politics of one nation , our fellow one-nigerianists were looking for ways to stab us.
Anyway, those days are far behind us.
The igbo have learnt the doctrine and politics of tribalism.

The same way Nigeria sent Ghanaians packing in the 80's, also the same way Ghanaians stopped Nigerians from operating retail stores to the disadvantage of Ghanaian retailers.

Them killing the Sardauna was their most joyful moment.

It was so joyful that they became blinded and it turned suicidal. They are still gnashing their teeth from the Northern treatment they were given for their disease.

You are a bushman. Sardauna was Premier of northern Nigeria and he was talking about the northern civil service. Whats wrong in what he said. Why should an igbo or yoruba be un the nirthern civil service? The same way nirtherners cant be in the western or eastern govts so whats the fuss. What sardauna said is true and will always be true about the igbos. Imagine Maiduguri of all places still has a large number of igbos despite all the killings going on. Even Birno indegines are fleeing there but igbos due to their love for money are still there.

The first mayor of enugu was fulani but that is not even important.
Nobody is asking for igbos to be employed in your civil service. They also have their own civil service.
Hating on them irrationally, especially as members of the same country is sick.
How can you support a so-called national leader who wants a non-NIgerian before a Nigerian that is not northern .?
And that includes yorubas ,igbos,ijaws, urhobos,e.t.c.

The North would have turned to a job poaching ground for the Western region and Eastern region.

The Sarduana did his people a big favour with his well calculated policy.
Till today his own love him.

My opinion of him, or the opinion of the Igbo about him is irrelevant to the fact that he was a smart administrator that the North couldn't have been any better without.

As for the Igbos, you never tire to dey look for others tribal leaders to denigrate?

Everybody must work to your own advantage, else you call them traitor and whatnots. Yet we are still waiting to learn what favour the East ever did to merit anyone's loyalty.
