Deal with this.

Don't attempt to rewrite history...
Tafawa Balewa was the Prime minister, the number 1 citizen, the head of state.
A president under the parliamentary system is a figure head post.
He is appointed and not elected.

The title of the thread states - first ladies since independence..
Ziks wife wasn't the first lady.

saaphiere:
Ok sir. Sorry.

No be sorry matter.. It's about getting facts right. This is a public forum. Crosschecking facts is important

Stop with that Nonsense. Haija Telle Tafawa Balewa was also referred to as First lady, why didnt you put up her name?

Oga go to WIKIPEDIA and complain. I wasn't the one who wrote those things. Goodbye. Better still, tell the mods to delete the thread.

In the intro on Wikipedia it's already stated that with the 1963 constitution, Nigerian practiced a parliamentary system, the Prime Minister was the number one, and the President was a ceremonial role played by the head of the other part of the government coalition at the centre.
It's already stated there.
Nothing to edit!

It was a ceremonial position...

Tafawa Balewa was the leader .

You are one of the idiotic reasons Nigeria is called basket of fools. Tafawa Balewa was not a leader anything. He was not even leader of the party in the coalition government. He was a prime minister like any other ministers during the coalition government. What defined any political position of the era in discuss was Nigerian constitution. There was no place in the constitution a position of ceremonial was written. Azikiwe was the first indigenous Governor-General and President of Nigeria. His presidency was as constitutional as the presidency of Buhari. If your laziness will permit you, I suggest you read the section 85 of 1963 Nigerian constitution which stipulated the positions and authorities of the officials of Nigeria.

You sounded like a dunce. Who accepts the appointment of the prime minister in a parliamentary system of government. A parliamentary government can be dissolved with mere vote of no confidence and the President will order for new election. Tafawa Balewa was one of the ministers. By the way, you need serious adult education.

Another Lazy Nigerian Youth arguing what he doesn't know. We practised a Paliamentary system which the British left with us. The Prime minister is the head of Government and he held the number one office in the land just like Boris Johnson is the Prime minister of the United Kingdom today. Presidents are not recognized under Parliamentary system of Govt.

Absolutely idiotic. I guess it is Wikipedia edited by people in your class of enlightenment. I have a copy of 1963 Nigerian constitution on my table and I would want you state what section had this rubbish you posted as facts.

Head of the government does not mean head of state or president of the country or king/Queen of Kingdom. From 1960 to 1965, Nigerian government changed once through election. Tafawa Balewa was lucky his party and coalition partners did not want to change him. Meanwhile Azikwe remained the President of Nigeria, head of state and commander-in-Chief from 1963 to 1966. After 1964 national election, Balewa would have ceased to mean anything to Nigeria if NCNC had decided to form coalition government with AG. In this instance Azikwe would have still remain head of state.

I cherish Maryam babangida, she is the most beautiful of them all and also who impacted actively in the development of Nigeria by creating alot of programs and addressing women issues. May her soul rest in jannah.

Maryam babangida is not in top 3 from those pictures posted unless you want to go the way of the Almighty English press ( hyping machine).

Dame! Patience Jonathan

Oga you argue too much, who was seen Meeting Presidents and Prime minister's of other countires?Who was receiving other Head of state of various nations in his residence in Nigeria?Who addressed the whole country on Independence day? Who received the declaration of independence in 1960 from the representative of the queen. Answer Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (Prime Minister)

Mr Debodimeji01, Sir do you know about Manaraabp loan scheme? It was said to be interest free CBN loan, we registered but haven't gotten any info since then. thanks

Oponu, I guess India's Modi and Angela Merkel are mere ministers and not leaders of their governments.
Who was overthrown in the 1966 coup?
Azikiwe abi?

Alayerada, if you can't lay your facts without name calling you will be served as you brought it.

This is a summary of the 1966 coup, was it Zik that was overthrown?
