you shd ask yourself what he was after beyond the eastern border in the west?

.

The thing taya me o, all he needed to do was to stock enough food, medicines, and nuke the bridges joining the East to the rest of Nigeria.

Prior to 66 Nigeria has University of Nigeria Nsukka it was in the 50s that Nigeria had one University. Bro the east was ahead and more progressive. In the West apart from Lagos and Ibadan which other major city was in the West. But in the east there was Onitsha, Aba, Enugu(The capital), Umuahia, Port Harcourt and Calabar.

Also when Ironsi declared the unitary decree he still kept the regional governors Adebayo(West) Ojukwu(East) Hassan(North) Ejoor(Mid west). Let us stop distorting history it was a well known fact that Gowon dismantled the regional structure and created states so as to weaken the eastern region and free the minorities in the region which is there for all to see.

So who is Adekunle Fajuyi?, and why was Aguiyi Ironsi at Fajuyi's house, on the day Ironsi was killed, alonside Fajusi?.
Yoruba said e ma je ki a ka eru, ti a ba ka eru, inu eru a baje, meaning don't let us count our slaves, if we count the slaves, this will remind them of when they were freeborn.
The ghost of the atrocities that destroyed the first republic would have been laid to rest, if not that the same folks who mistook the rest of Nigeria for MAGA, by turning everything upside down, are still cooking baseless stories on the social media.

There are so many things you never knew about Awo. It was true that Awo secretly wanted to form an alliance with NPC it was Okotie Eboh that convinces Zik to Quickly form the alliance with NPC. Funny the same Awo wanted to form an alliance with NCNC while trying to secretly form an alliance with NPC. Mind you the western region was not the richest. Yes they had Cocoa, but they were not as rich as the Eastern region that had Coal, Rubber, palm oil. Please let us get our history correct and stop the lies being pandered for years.
I read a report then on the regions in Nigeria. In the west the ratio of teachers to students was 1: 200 while in the east it was 1: 50 that was why Awo introduced free education to see if he could bridge the gap between the east and west in education. The west got education first but the east in a few years through missionary system of education advanced ahead of the west.

In medicine the ratio of doctors to the populations in the region was stated below;

West 1: 500
East 1: 100
North 1: 1500

So the honest truth was that the east had a far better indices of development. The Biafran war destroyed everything. Awo had hindsight of establishing the Ikeja industrial estate to take advantage of closeness to Apapa ports. In the 60s apart from Ibadan and Lagos which understandably was the capital territory you had no big cities in the region. But in the Eastern region there was Onitsha, Enugu(the capital), Calabar, Portharcourt, Umuahia.

It is high time the truth is told about the developmental indices of the regions prior to 66

Tell me more about it, Awo's SW borrowed the Nigerian government, a WHOPPING 5 MILLION POUNDS, a lot of money at that period.

Why can't these jobless people advice their masters in Nigeria to stop persecuting a minority of Nigerians of a different belief under flimsy excuses and guises? They are protesting outside the Iran embassy to promote the Zaria Massacre, shooting at Shi'ite processions, mass grave, shooting protesters and illegal detention. What a sad time for democracy in the country.

It is obvious till now Iran has not done anything to defend or arm these Shi'ite guys. And some jobless clowns and masquerades are knocking on the door of their embassy, in tit for tat, to tell them to stop sponsoring "terrorism" in Nigeria. Why not tell our own government to stop sectarian persecution, illegal detention and shooting at protesters? When Iran actively starts sponsoring these guys, you cannot do your tit for tat clowning to sponsor "terrorists" in Iran. Your clowning will stop then and the same Iran you're provoking today will be the one you will rush to for dialogue and intervention. By then it might be too late.

No one lose by talking to others and being nice for the sake of peace. Not for the sake of fear or favor. These guys as a group are not stronger than Nigeria as a country and neither is boko haram. But why not prevent the carnage they might cause by pushing them to the wall? Fighting and discord is a loss for everyone. No one gains from it.

OMG, carry plarcard to Zaria with inscription that says " FREE EL ZAKZAKI ".

Benjamin Adekunle

The Black Scorpion.

A real military tactician, talented and gifted soldier and a PATRIOT.

The guy would have become Are ona kakanfo, he bluntly rejected the offer, he was one of the powers who forced IBB to step aside.
Having used firifiri to beat the security at Aso Rock, he went into IBB's bedroom to warn him, that " what IBB is doing " is not what the Nigerian Army fought for.
IBB had to change all the security at Aso Rock, the news had it that, some we're even killed.
He continues to torment IBB so much that, the NEWSWATCH magazine and the NEWS magazine described the fiasco, as IBB'S STRANGE VISITORS.
Okunrin meta, Ekun oko oke, may the Lord rest his soul.

You mean Buratai just went berserk and decided to go and kill 300 Shi'ites at their various HOMES?.
My problem with you people is the kind of argument you put forward, no wonder your people are having it rough in foreign countries, in a lawless situation it is illegal to be law abiding.
The Shi'ites are a lawless group, how can they block the road and refused to make way for the NA, what kind of lawlessness is that?, much as I don't like what happened to the Shi'ites,, they sure deserve it.

mrvitalis:
U mean after awolowo and your yoruba friends betrayed zik in the western region and then u want him to form alliance with u ?

Oga we have internet today ...your press power is dead and igbos now dominate social media

2023 we would betray yorubas again and form alliance with north ...as pay back for 2015

You mean why Yorubas refused to accept an Igbo premier?.
No wonder Ojukwu had to sacrifice a whopping 3 million people, just to annex Yoruba land.
The whole country knows who you guys are, 2023 is around the corner, you people will still come back to wail BIAFURO or LESHURSHURE.

Yawns tell me more about it.
Is this why Ahmadu Bello and Balewa had to die, by the hands of the same Igbos, that they are happy to work with?.
I keep telling you people, history classes are back in our schools, enough said.

When APC lose out in a state like Oyo state they will now be crying..Sunday dare is Tinubu's former chief of staff and Commissioner under Nigerian Communications Commission...He is from Ogbomosho..Like Tinubu imposed the likes of Adelabu on the party in Oyo state so he has done with this..80% of members of APC in Oyo state do not even know him..And in Politics,Politicians on the ground win election as those are the ones that work for the party..But in this case this one is not even known and will go a long way in even dividing the party more in Oyo state

The person I pity in all of this is Adelabu..Dude wasted his time and money together with his overbearing attitude.Instead of him to display a hand of friendship towards the likes of Joseph tegbe and co..people that were in the party even before he came in.He did not,he was carrying a air of pride around him thinking he would win..He has forgotten "A ji shey bi oyo laarin,Oyo o se bi baba enikan kan....We are not slaves like to Tinubu like Lagosians are..With him missing out on the ministerial appointment,it will take a miracle for him to make any impact again in Oyo state

Too Bad!

Yawns Ogbomosho voted for APC, yes or no?.
That ministerial appointment is on point.

Chai! you're the more showing how dumb you're. No wonder you are very slow in discerning matters. What's your confusion with the word warrior? Its just a word to praise someone you admire. Please use your dictionary you illiterate.
Then it's 'Aláàfin' not 'Alafin' you slowpoke. Almajiri face your cows and don't spoil the name of the King.
You keep trying hard to sound like a son but the slave gene in you will not just allow you.
Iwo ati gbogbo eyin omo iran-kiran ti e n ba oruko rere iran Yoruba je ni ara ma san pa. Eè ni kuure! Useless cows!

Numbskull, who's your daddy?. Killing people and shouting Fulani herdsmen up and down.
Awon oloju kokoro awon ole.

Gratefulheart01:
7cows, advocate of the cows, almajiri, accept who you're.
Your grand father was a warrior, may he continue to rest in peace but you ended up as a sùnádàrì, eru almajiri. When a person is destined to be a slave, even if your father is a royal king, you will always live up to your slave destiny. Iwa eru ko le fi eru sile.
Eyah, the people wey bath you for birth don put your common sense inside calabash. Why will anybody be inciting people against saint innocent Fulani? Àbí béè kó? Even when fulani rape your mama finish, u will still help them use your mouth to clean their dck. Ewuree sef get sense pass you. What a pity for this kind fool. A foolish son is a disgrace to he lais mother.
Almajiri, go and drink cow urinue, and live your slavery life in peace and leave the issues of Yoruba land to Sons.

Slave shouldn't be talking where sons are.

Olugbon a warrior? Normadic flatron iwa omo ni mu omo se okigbe, pack well and if possible, pack into the lagoon.
Olugbon is a technocrat, he is an Oyomesi, one of the few parliamentarians in Oyo empire, their job is to guide Alafin to the right path, they make decisions and present to Alafin for approval.
You speak Yoruba doesn't mean you are, even Gani Adams said it, that the whole Fulanis hue and cry is not adding up.
We know the useless people committing atrocities on Yoruba land, very soon gbogbo yin l'ara ma san pa.

toolovely:
Before Buhari became president, I never knew anything called Shi'ite Muslims. They have never disturbed Nigerians or killed at will. Release their leader simple.
We have a major security problem which is the Fulani terrorist groups so why is your president not active in nipping them to the bud?

Just look at this lier, I escaped their madness way back 1999 in Kaduna.
Go to Zaria to carry plarcard with inscription that says " FREE EL ZAKZAKI " or is this too much for a nosy Nigerian like you?.

zoedew:
Exactly! That’s the trick to play the victim card i.e. taqqiya under the cover of which they seize control of power. The proper response is to proscribe them for being a terrorist group (Iran backs them), prosecute and jail them as appropriate. Should they take up arms the response of the State must be swift, firm and decisive. Obasanjo and Jonathan failed to handle BH in that manner until the matter boiled over. I remember one prominent SW Lawyer Lateef Adegbite who tongue-in-cheek spoke in defence of BH saying they were not terrorists for religious. Now we know better!

Wa a gba iyi.

malakaimoscondo:
pls who is not law abiding,the shia protester or the government BUHARI is leading? some person need brain I swear....dont worry by the times this get out of hands u will reminisce on this nonsense u spew again. are u a troglodyte? if u have not been following event about the struggle for the release of zazzaky and how numerous court of competent jurisdiction granted him bail,I think silent would have unveil ur smartness that speak and look like dekiki....

In other words, he sees nothing wrong with miyeti allah vigilante in Ondo state? A terrorist organization for that matter? Are there OPC vigilantes in Kano or Sokoto? This is Pathetic! Obviously sell outs like these are the ones that will lead their own people to destruction.
Let them bury their heads in the sand. By the time fulani terrorist herders takes over the state it will be too late.
Terrorist Dan Fodio came as a friend too in 1800s, pretending to offer help to hausa kings only to become their worst nightmare overnight. Where the hausa kings today?

A word is enough for the wise.

Pain.

Gratefulheart01:
1. Armed local uniformed rouges, who do not belong to any of the country's official security force freely carrying guns and swords in broad day light, roaming the highway freely as they want.

2. Trespassing In another people's territory. All the way from north to Ondo in south west.

3.Especially again, members of a controversial terrorist group who have been kidnapping and massacring people.

And Dr. Kayode Ajulo is trying to debunk what exactly? That it's right for northern terrorists to freely carry guns and roam South west? So this ediot who calls himself a doctor expects miyetti allah's vigilantes to arrest their fellow terrorist of same sect and brotherhood? He must be mentally unstable.
What's really wrong with South West for fvck sake? Where have we gotten all these simpletons who are polluting our tribe from? Such a pity.

I know the thing pain you, cry us a river.

muykem:
This set of police are too nice for my liking. Only 11 terrorists, I expect around 100 plus.

God bless you bro.
Someone please help me with that Vladimir Putin's quote on ISIL meeting their maker, pleeeaaase.

Levant:
Shehu that is intelligent should advise his oga to allow Zakzaky go seek medical care abroad. His health is already bad according to news. If he goes abroad, I doubt he would return. That's like self imposed exile. Let him go out of the country. The man is already old and was shot thrice and has lost an eye and has been in prison for four years without charge and he lost six sons to the military. That's a shaken man. Why still detain him in violation of court order? Why fight a sectarian war in Nigeria on behalf of Saudi Arabia? Wahhabis the world over are intolerant to Shi'ites. They want to enforce their Takfirism on Shi'ites everywhere. And it is wrong to execute a sectarian war or agenda in a secular country.

Abeg make we hear word jor, why must Shi'ites constitute themselves into a nuisance in Nigeria?.
That was how that useless church, Lord's chosen keeps disturbing us with their noise in Lagos.
Baba should borrow a leaf from kagame and shut these useless religious business men up.

tofolo:
Brother just google IRAN and Shiites as I said, My organisation is just a block away from where it all started, Zaria Kaduna state, if these people come out on their procession all economic activities are grounded for that day and this has caused a lot of turmoil for everyone. That was how it started in Iran till it toppled a government. am not supporting shooting them because "There is as dangerous as a person willing to die for a cause"

You sabi dem well well, let the wailers continue to carry the matter for head, people of Kaduna are happy, I mean very happy with the shite situation at the moment.

etrouble:

No he will not. These Shiites members are Igbos that is why Buhari is treating them badly. Go and get another brain, the one on your head is not working again.

The best comment so far.

franchasng:
You commented like a reasonable human being and that is why I am quoting you in the first place.

I am sorry to say that most Yoruba youths don't have sense, oh yeah and you can ask me why and how I will explain.

Ask an average Yoruba youth the crime an Igbo person committed against him compared to the crime a Hausa-Fulani man committed against him, and hear his reasons

Igbos have never ruled Nigeria since 1966, and whether you like it or not, if it were to be Igbos in the shoe of Yorubas today, majority of Igbos will support a Yoruba with all their might; before you argue, Igbos did it for Obasanjo....they rallied behind OBJ as a way to show support to Yorubas who lost their son MKO in the hands of Hausa-Fulani power brokers.

If it were to be Yorubas, they will taunt Igbos and mock them with all they have.

Yorubas will claim to be sophisticated and enlightened, please tell me how enlightened can one be not to be fair in reasoning and call a spade a spade

One attribute of being enlightened is being able to distinguish evil from good, but can we say that for majority of Yorubas That I doubt because whenever they hear any mockery against Igbo Presidency, Yorubas are the first to start jubilation, yet they will turn around to say Igbos are hateful or something, tell me who is hating on who


If Yorubas refuse to borrow sense and tell themselves the truth that next Southern President should be from the Igbo tribe, then I am sorry to say that North will rule again after 2023 until Southern Nigerians from Yoruba extraction develop sense enough to know what is right and just.

And again, if you hate Igbos so much that you don't want them to become President of Nigeria, why not allow them secede from Nigeria and have their own country so you can be free from their wahala; is that not the simplest and honorable thing to do

Igbos have NEVER support Yoruba on anything, they have in fact sabotage Yoruba interest in this country.
History is back in class rooms, or use Google.

Praktikals:
I have watched the vid and do not see anything wrong in what the premier said. Take note that he was referring to the northern Nigeria. I think this is normal and commonsensical. The yorubas will say you will first adorn your beautiful daughter before you consider other peoples's daughter- omo eni koni se idi bebere, ka wa fi ileke si idi omo elomiran

To them it is a hate speech, and that is why the man had to die.

franchasng:
....and what happened to Ahmadu Bello after he made those useless statements in 1964 He paid the prize with other of his fellow tribalists, don't ask me how, but if you are wise, don't joke with Igbos or else, you pay the prize

The only Indomitable tribe in Nigeria that fearlessly faced the rest of Nigeria in 1967 - 1969 without fear such that international community marveled at their bravery and inventions within a short period of time even without any prior preparation.

That is why Northerners fear Igbos, they know what Igbos can do, same reason Middle East countries fear Israel even though Israel is a small nation, but the fear of Israel in Middle East is the beginning of wisdom and having peace of mind

Yes north fear Igbos no wonder your elders are holding another useless meeting with Ganduje in Kano.
The problem with Igbos is that they have no respect for themselves, and they expect people to respect them.
The truth of the matter is that Igbos fear Hausa because Igbos values life and hausas don't.
You slaughter 10 hausas, a 100 will rise to fight to death, you slaughter 100 and a thousand is ready to die and it's not as if their opponent will not sustain heavy casualties.
This is why the people of the west prefer to jaw jaw than to war war, war is just a waste, it is not an option to solving any problem.
After the meaningless killings, the Waring parties will still have to jaw jaw, so what is the essence of the lives lost?.

Power rotational is not constitutional and does not in any way, determines how political parties pick candidates for elections.
