New York Times Article About Nigeria In 1964. by JohnSin97: 11:19pm On Jun 02, 2021
Below are the quotes from the Times newspaper:

The conservative North, 75 percent Muslim and containing about half of Nigeria's population, is governed by the Northern people's congress. The premier is Alhaji Sir Ahmadu Bello, who carries the title of Saraduana of Sokoto.

In the East, where the intelligent, energetic Ibo tribes predominates the controlling party is the National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons, headed by one of the most dazzling of Nigerian politicians, Dr. Nnamdi Azikwe, premier of the Eastern region, who is known throughout the country as Zik.

In the somewhat more developed west, which is Yoruba Country, the government is run quite well, it is said by Chief Awolowo, an able politician, and his Action group. The West points with pride to its universal free primary education, free medical treatment for children up to 18years of age, agricultural planning and other social programs of which no other Nigerian region can boast of.

On the Hatred of the Yorubas by Azikwe and Balewa:
The Federal government whose prime minister is Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, a muslim notable from the north, is managed by a coalition of the Northern people congress and National council of the Nigeria and the Cameroonians led by Azikiwe, two parties that have very little in common except mutual dislike of the third (Awolowo).

I easily spot posts created by hurting Fulanis and I don't respond to them any more. But you Southerners, why can't you just stop giving these fellows attention?

Awolowo who was in prison? Who was leading the western region by this time? Not Akintoka?

In 1964, Akintola was premier, Awolowo was in prison so what are you deceiving yourself about?
