In the West the grant of Regional self-government has on balance been justified. The Action Group Government, led by the Premier, Chief Awolowo, have proved reasonable and competent administrators and, although with the steady run-down of the cadre of overseas officers (Colonial Officers in West) there is bound to be some decline in standards of administration, the advanced educational programme of the Region should in time provide sufficient replacements. The Premier aspires to national leadership and has to this end formed a close alliance with the principal Opposition elements in the North and East.


In the East government has seriously run down. Dr. Azikiwe (“ Zik “), leader of the N.C.N.C. remains in power as the personification of Ibo tribalism, but his chronic unwillingness to tolerate around him men of independence of mind has brought into being a Regional Executive Council, almost all of whom are nonentities. Some of the Federal Ministers drawn from his Party, notably Dr. Mbadiwe, have recently lost their posts through constant but so far ineffective warfare against his personal dictatorship of party affairs. His star may be on the wane. At present he has no serious rival as leader of the Ibos, who are much the largest race in the Region, and although it would be much healthier for Nigeria if his hand were removed from the helm, the time has passed when Her Majesty’s Government could take any effective action to hasten this process. He must be left to the disillusionment of his own people.


The vast Northern Region is still well behind the others in “ progress.” Two-thirds of its 18 million people are strict Muslims, accepting the authority of their Emirs. Educational progress is still slow and there is no prospect for a generation of the Region being able to replace from its own resources the overseas officers who have served them so well. The North fears and dislikes the more educated Southerners and if they were not economically bound to the Federation would be glad to be quit of it.

Tajudeen my fellow yoruba muslim, you no de taya? Must u creat this type of meaningless thread that only attract hate and insult to yoruba people. Most of u yoruba muslim are but a burden in the shoulders of politically and economically maligned yoruba Christians. If there's any wrong time to a a yoruba christian it is now that u sons of ishmael has stoked the embers of hetrade between yoruba christians and Igbo christians. I expect yoruba christians to start distancing themselves from u trouble makers who are ever ready to trade them for CALIPHATE crumbs.
