Bende, and Arochukwu produced Cocoa too.
ENDC was looking to catch up Western region in Cocoa production by expanding it's cocoa plantations before Nzeogwu struck

Lol, you're in no where catching up with the west.
Do you know how much Ondo only produce?

proeast:


Fallacy, Michael Okpara established cocoa farm settlements in present day Abia, Cross River and Akwa Ibom.

Does cocoa grow in abia?

I have read the report and it doesn't disprove the fact that the West was lagging behind the East in terms of school enrollment and other development indices during the 1950's and 1960's prior to the civil war.

Bring a comparative analysis for confirmation and not a data that proves nothing!

Maybe you should bring that of east.

Seerade029:

Lol, you're in no where catching up with the west.

The East was determined.
All those empty lands in Ebonyi, Abia North and Cross River North. Were marked for total cocoa plantations by the ENDC before the war happened.
They would not be individually manged like in West. They would be privatized and well regulated by ENDC to make sure they didn't exploit the indigenes or pollute the land with harmful policies.
They were not going to be subsistence cocoa farmers using crude equipment. They were supposed to grow into big private corporations.
Would have been interesting to see if they would have pulled it off.
But Nzeogwu happened!

Aniomas are part of Igbo race but due to civil war loss hangover, some deny being Igbo's,
they don't want to associate with people that lost the war and are been marginalized.

Yes, it does.

oh... I see. Someone was arguing with me that there are no Igbo people in Delta State neither are they in Rivers, hence the reason I asked.

By the way your name is Amarachi abi?

That's all they were empty lands. And you're still making empty noises on them filled with empty lies.

Yoruba made Azikiwe, not his roots in Iboland or his birthplace in North.

Whoever in Iboland is your glory, we made them.
Respect Yoruba!

Where were Yoruba when Zik left the shore of what later became Nigeria to USA? Lagos was not the first destination of Zik when left USA for Africa. Sometimes I wonder the length these loudmouths will go in order to feel good.

When you hear palm kernel and palm oil you always think its exclusive to East. There were two trade ports from which palm kernels and oil were exported - exports of kernels and oil in West were shipped out of Lagos, those in East shipped from PHarcourt.

Anytime you look at palm oil and kernels export they are contributions from West and East.

Cocoa is exclusive to West.
Rubber is exclusive to Midwest.

Yari.ba and their fallacies do not the boundary of decency. Amount of Rubber produced in today's Cross River, Akwa Ibom , Rivers and Abia states led to two tire factories in Port Harcourt.

Why are you guys running from pillar to post just to rewrite history...lol
Regurgitating a sourceless article over and over again won't change the facts. How can you compare a dog to a lion?
If the education in the east was top-notched then how do you explain why most Igbos notable leaders schooled in the West, while I'm yet to see a Yoruba leader that had his/her education in the east.
The east is heaven but Nnamdi Azikiwe himself will rather choose to reside in Ibadan and set up his newspaper company there. The guyman even prefer to kill himself to become the premier of the West rather than go to the East.

Awo achieved within 5 years a string of "Firsts" in the history of Africa. Between 1954 and 1959, his government­

* Evolved, and was served by, the most efficient Civil Service in Black Africa;

* Introduced and successfully implemented the first Free Primary Education programme in Africa;

* Introduced and successfully managed the first Free Medical Service programme in Nigeria - for children up to the age of 18;

* Established the first Television Station in Africa;

* Built the Liberty Stadium, the first such modem sports facility in Nigeria;

* Introduced and successfully implemented the first minimum wage policy in Nigeria and actually paid to Western Nigerians from October 1954 a minimum wage that was double the amount paid to workers of the same level in some other parts of Nigeria;

* Set up Nigeria’s first industrial complex at Ikeja;

* Set up Nigeria's first commercial Housing Estates at Ikeja and Bodija, Ibadan.

* Laid the foundation for development in commerce and industry by creating an efficient
Western Nigeria Development Corporation, the ancestor of the present-day O'dua Investment Company;

*Taken successful bold steps to revolutionise the production and marketing of cocoa by farmers in Western Nigeria; and                   .

*Created the infrastructure for rural development by promoting 900 cooperative societies in about 3 years and by providing within 5 years almost 10 times as many miles of road as he inherited from the British administration.

Even his transducers like Ojukwu called him "the best president Nigeria never had" while Ojukwu detest Nnamdi Azikiwe with all vigour.
While Obafemi Awolowo was widely known to champion the course of his people, Azikiwe is generally known as a saboteur by his people who will trade and betray his people for a pot of porridge.

Nnamdi Azikiwe was to Igbos a Saboteur while Awo is a demi god of the Yorubas.

Even in death, while the lineage of Zik are no where to be found, Awo's granddaughter today is your nation Second lady and his son-in-law is your vice president and president in waiting...

Virtually all igbo elites schooled in the west

Thats true. Coal is exclusive to East.

You should call Amarabae's attention to your point.

Ibos generally didnt know that Coal in East was used to develop PortHarcourt Port.

Proceeds of Palm Oil, Cotton in West was used to develop Lagos port.

This is included in a thread that busted the myths that Lagos ports was developed by Delta oil. This revelation was produced from colonial records and presented by Yoruba.

Yoruba produce facts, Ibo rely on hearsay and conjectures that go nowhere.

Ojukwu's money too.

My goodness, I'm beginning to have the impression that afonjas contributed to Nigeria's decay more than any other group. It has become clear that the only reason why history learning was stopped in Nigeria was to erase the massive exploits and contributions to the growth of Nigeria and to replace it with blatant lies and propaganda which they have continued to churn out unabashedly, the most recent being the ridiculous nonsense Yeye Kale produced from his smelly ass and presented to the public as statistics!

Even as far back as the 1960's, the Igbos were already ahead of the afonjas in school enrollment yet they kept telling the indomie generation how the afonjas are the most educated tribe in Nigeria. The only time they were ahead was immediately after the white men first arrived established schools in Lagos and Abeokuta but the moment they crossed the Niger, we took over (read Achebe's Trouble with Nigeria for more emphasis) and it has remained like that till today (university enrollment figures, JAMB and WAEC figures proves that).

The British system only supported merit and that was why Igbos occupied majority of posts in the country and that was the golden years of Nigeria until the civil war and the afonjas and abo.kis took over to destroy everything. Since then it has remained a free fall to the abyss and that is why we want out from this suicide mission called Nigeria.

The so called Igbo merit is only when an Igbo man is power
Is it a coincidence when azikwe was president Unilag and Ibadan had Igbo Vcs also when Jonathan was in power igbos were putting them selves everywhere

When the floor is even the Igbo man can’t compete that’s why your region is backward and when statistics reveal the truth you start to bash the statistics

A prominent Yari.ba lawyer and politician who, in fact, was federal minister of education in 60s said the Awolowo's recklessness in western region with his silly free education "Mainly produced armed robbers and letter writers". This man was not a hack writer who wants to make penny out of western regional government but a former federal minister of education. He knew better than anybody who had been outspoken about the free education in western region of Nigeria.

You are basically laughable. The man knew the depth of Nigerian education where he found western region to be completely outclassed by eastern region. In fact, he mindlessly injected tribalism into Nigeria academia when he insisted that a none tenured lecturer, Biobaku should become VC of Unilag.

will u shut up. Where did he say western region was outclassed by the east my bloda. One one hand u celebrate him cuz he said something bad regarding awo western education on the other u accuse him of tribalism in Nigeria academy. Biobaku was the most qualified of the Vc of Unilag.

Please shut your putrid mouth. What could have driven him into irrational behavior if he did not notice that western region was no match to eastern region in the areas of quality education? I am simply stating the factual facts not Yari.ba fallacies induced by tribal weights.

I never knew Zik was a federal minister of education in Nigeria. Most Nigerians have weird stream of thoughts.

When you ask for list of Azikwes achievement it was all personal first to be ceremonial president

Appointing igbos to head other ethnic institutions
Looking for way to access other ethnic groups wealth

Nothing concerning his own collective people looool
No industry no education no policy achievement

Lol
