TooNoisy:your assumptions are wrong, Obasanjo has a good relationship with North and got is vote as well, Jonathan Won in 2011, because he had the support of the North, Tinubu also sold Lagos votes to him. Any time any day, the North is more populous, even if all the south Vote one side, they can never win North, In this country, a northerner will always be the president or vice at any point in time. 1 Like |

TonyeBarcanista:Who DECLARED Western Nigeria for westerners, Northern Nigeria for northerners, Eastern Nigeria for easterners, because Nigeria is a mere GEOGRAPHICAL EXPRESSION. In 1969 when he saw the opportunity to use oil revenues to develop Lagos and Western Nigeria, the man became an emergency nationalist. Tonye which version of Nigerian History did you score this P7. |

cckris:**** Your Ironsi destroyed our true federalism and zoned power to the centre due to his greediness! There were no oil boom as at then and the West and the North's resources were higher than that of the Eastern's! Have you forgotten the North pleaded to Ironsi not to destroy the regional system? Do you think they would have done such if there were oil boom at that time? Oil resources only became relevant after the civil war and the North realised they have hit a jackpot with the unitary system created by your stupid and greedy Ironsi! 8 Likes 2 Shares |

How does this change the fact that awo(the greatest yoloba man ever) took rat poison & died like a thief? How does this stop yoloba people from being cowards? Stop famzing the Igbo Nation. We know who our real enemies are. |

TooNoisy:30% correct. You have the propaganda version of history. Thank God Chief Richard Akinjide is alive and healthy. Zik and NCNC were persuading Ahmadu Bello and his faction of NPC to accept Independence, which Bello rightly figured out, would undermine Fulani control of their conquered and expanding territories, such as Zango Kataf, Plateau state, etc. It's just like Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, weren't ready to join Northern Rhodesia, now Zambia, in their struggle for Independence. So NPC opposed the first Motion for Independence, and everyone had to wait until they were convinced, and at the very high price Southern Nigerians are still paying. |

BetaThings:The funny thing is Zik isn't even a Westerner! Assuming he was an Edo, Urhobo, Itsekiri or any of the tribes in the then Bendel state, we would have taken him serious! But the question is what is an eastern doing here in the Western presidential candidate election? As a matter of fact, Zik was even given a political post after Awolowo won the Election but he said it's either head of state or none! What a greedy badstard! 6 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista:So you admit that Awolowo was not a Nigerian nationalist, until 1969. Unlike Adegoke Adelabu, et al, who believed that a great Nigeria would serve everyone's interest, better than a multitude of unviable states. |

DiademSh07:Still our Military Regimes adopted ZIKISM, deploying Governors outside their states of origin, in order to integrate Nigerians into a Nation State, which the likes of you are still resisting, by DOUBLE-SPEAK.

DiademSh07:Abeokuta? Shagamu? Ijebu? Sango? Forget Akure. Schools and industries do not guarantee development. Development is genuine when the higher percentage of the populace are learned. Dont tell me about Awo's free education policy cos i am an adult education specialist in your west and I have come across people who are sixty years and less and who have never sat down in a classroom to learn until we brought succour their way. |

yahrant140: Azikiwe and awolowo were NEVER enemies. They were political and ideological rivals and thats a huge difference. awolowo nominating him (as President) in parliament as leader of d opposition was a noble thing do to bt it was also a FORMALITY. Zik and Balewa had already divided the posts to be shared among their parties and it was public knowlege. Using this to whitewash Yoruba perennial back-stabbing and sabotage of Igbo aspiration is immature and an insult to our intelligence. |
