Moneywomen17:
am still waiting for the “lawyer/politician” name oo my bloda.

Bloda, I do not enlighten self-acclaimed sophisticates.

Fatimaade:
Azikwe was a peadophile in Ghana everyone knows that

Another idiocy coming from a person who did not know there was nothing ceremonial about the presidency of Nigeria in 60s.

MetaPhysical:
Bring record to show Ojukwu had a warehouse or jetty in Apapa. Any straight record...not crooked one fabricated in Aba.

Who the hell do you think owned the long room in Apapa?

MetaPhysical:
Dedetwo, thread is discussing period prior to your coup.

It is about eastern region era hence today's Cross River, Akwa Ibom , Rivers and Abia states. I guess not every poster realizes that Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Rivers States were integral part of eastern region.

MetaPhysical:
Which Ojukwu, the one who borrowed money couldnt pay back and lost his collateral property....or the one that insanity drove to declare war and when heat of war came too close he baled?

Please borrow a leave from sincerity and give Mazi Odumegwu Ojukwu his due. The so-called Apapa Wharf once a jetty he and UAC ran together.

Fatimaade:
You just succeeded in not answering my question but insulting and deflecting

Igbos are quick to show of success no matter how mundane it is to the Yoruba man
So I’m surprised you can’t answer with achievements but not surprised you answer with insults

I never forced or induced you to pronounce the essence of ceremonial president. You simply called ceremonial president into this discuss with your collective intellect. Where is so-called insulting and deflecting?

Moneywomen17:
before i continue with u. What was the name of the “lawyer” who u credited ur statement to.

With the bolded, I honestly do not think you are qualified to continue with me.

Fatimaade:
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
His

I now have pity on you. It is safe to you have not seen either 1960 or 1963 Nigerian constitution talk less read it. You really sounded very local. I guess writing crap on the forum is part of the ills associated with free education the prominent Yari.ba lawyer and politician lamented about.

Fatimaade:
Rather Zik was the tribalist by putting an Igbo man who only sees his own as qualified looooooool

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

Moneywomen17:
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. What is the name of said prominent lawyer

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.

Fatimaade:
Yorubaphobia is real

I guess it takes one phobic poster to recognize another.

Moneywomen17:
probably playing opposition politics. It doesn’t prove shit. Another one

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.

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.

Fatimaade:
Virtually all igbo elites schooled in the west

Arrant nonsense!!!!

MetaPhysical:
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.

MetaPhysical:
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.

MetaPhysical:
Here are commodity exports and Nigeria's foreign Exchange Earnings by product.

Point to your contribution here. Freak!

These craps you posted to make few goons happy showed absolutely nothing.

MetaPhysical:
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.

24SEVEN:
I heard Niger state is Bigger than SWest.. can you confirm??

Yes, Niger State is bigger than South-Western Nigeria and Minna is bigger than Oyo State and Osun State.

Podakejol:
Will you shut up ode. Is anambra landmass up to 9,000sqkm? If no shut up and learn

Because Ibadan is more than 9,000sqkm.

Shut up your putrid mouth. Who determined the boundary of stinking Ibadan in order to peg the area at 9,000sqkm? These dumbass loudmouths will say anything under the Sun to appear relevant. By the way, it takes one super Ode such as you to recognize one on the forum.

Podakejol:
You’re not informed. Oyo State total landmass is 28,000km2 with 33 local governments. Ibadan alone has 11 local governments with almost 10,000km2.

So yes, Ibadan is larger than Anambra State and Enugu state

Spare me this nonsensical crap. If I had been in the corridor power immediately after Nigeria/Biafra war, I would have given Enugu city 24 LGAs. Please proffer the criteria used in creating LGAs in Nigeria other than jungle politics. It is a shame some people will suggest craps created by certain characters from Nigeria as a proof of anything.

That's Google

You are naïve and treacherous to say the lest. Calabar was the administrative headquarter of both Oil River and Niger Coast Protectorates. Even it ones served as the administrative headquarter of Southern Protectorate.

Seerade029:
1. Awolowo vision is in education tho.
2. Minorities are very small (2 states) compared to majority (4 states.)

Ibo land.
Both SE and SS Are equal (3 states each)
The SS provided the resources while SE plunder it and gave them few industries

In case of west.
West provided majorly resources.

But, Awolowo provided free education, medical, to everyone
The results of the education is seen today, delta and Benin has high literacy rate ahead of any state in SS

You can check the records below.

During this era in discuss, eastern region used western region as rag to clean house. It was the same era of so-called free education Richard Akinjide was mortified and claimed the period "Produced only armed robbers and letter writers". This is a typical narrative only sourced from the loudmouthed groups.

Seerade029:
Well, Ibadan is bigger than Enugu and Anambra

Which Ibadan is bigger than Enugu and Anambra States? Do you think you are the only human being who has visited Ibadan? This is loudmouthed crap that tends to reduce most Nigerians into none thinkers. The fact that Oyo State is a waste of land mass does not translate into a city like Ibadan bigger than Anambra and Enugu States.

Sunshineg5:
Note: This write up is not to promote tribalism

So during the late hours of yesterday in a heated conversation in a Topic created by ethnic supremacists in an attempt to rewrite history to favour their narratives, A well known moniker who goes by the alias of Anambra First Son claimed that the Eastern region under igbo administration had developed minority tribes more than other regions during the first republic of Nigeria.

Well! under cross examination by this writer, his claims were busted as mere myths.

Here are some of the claims busted as lies so far, others would come shortly.

Obudu cattle ranch

Rice mills in cross River

Platations etc..

Obudu cattle ranch resort

1) A quick check of the history of the famous Obudu cattle ranch resort shows that the Ranch was established in the year 1951 by British business men even before Nigeria was separated into three regions in 1954. So how could Eastern region government have developed something that existed before them?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obudu_Mountain_Resort

Rice factory in Cross River

2) According to the governor of Cross river state, his state had no rice mill until 2017. Hence, before they had a rice mill, the rice cultivated in Cross river area were taken to Abakaliki for processing. He even went on to allege that most of the rice called Abaliki rice were all gotten from Cross river state.

https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/ben-ayade-cross-river-to-complete-ogoja-rice-mill-before-december/brtc4bz

Plantations of cash crops

4) Plantations of cash crops had been on since the colonial periods, I honestly feel it's a new low for any region to claim plantation as an achievement of some sort. Every region emphasized its development around plantation of cash crops in the first republic

4) it also worth noting that the only two factories eventually sited in amongst the minorities in the East like the old Cement Factory in Cross river and Glass factory in Portacult were sited there only after MINORITIES IN THE WEST HAD LEFT TO FORM THEIR OWN REGION

So What happened from 1954 to 1963? Why did the igbo led East first set up a cement industry in Ebonyi in 1962 before Cross river? Your guess is as good as mine!

INSERT

Despite the shorter life of the Western region when compared to the Eastern region, The largest wood processing Factory in Africa was set up in Sapele by UAC during this time.

In addition, Awolowo left them a legacy that positioned Edo and Delta states as those with the highest level of literacy in the South South today, even as most Yorubas admit today that Awolowo should have treated the minorities better.

Stay tuned for the next episode of myth busters Nairaland edition.

You are the type of character who would have claimed and swore with the gods of osun that Awolowo was the premier of western region in 1951. In addition, that Awolowo developed western region with three or four years he was the premier of western region. I suggest you take your nonsense somewhere else.

meolaniyi:
We should start asking questions why the Fulanis with only less than 5m in Nigeria is ruling the population
of over 200m people. They are expanding every day not peacefully but with war and subjugation.

Why is that its the aboriginal and the owners of the land are the people helping them to subjugate their own people.
why the hate between ethnic aboriginal inhabitants but nobody dare hates the Fulanis that has brought a peaceful country to
terrorist heaven.

I heard politics is about numbers, but how come Fulanis are ruling everybody with a population of 5m people.
I feel sad and ashamed of our politicians.

Suen will be pressured into removing this thread that is more of a history.
The Fulanis always have willing tools in all the tribes

I do not know whom you referred as "We" in the above post. However such pitiful question should go to Yari.ba and the minorities that joined the deceitful northern region political elites to fight Ndigbo and Biafrans. One thing is sure, it has not ended.

GreatChizzy:
So how would this information bring forth Biafra, thou son of Hate and perdition!!!

Are you dumb or just a learner? This information makes unbelievers to turn around and become determined foot soldiers for actualization of Biafra. The dude is building up his base for the final onslaught.

Seerade029:
Imagine
If Oyo state is bigger or equal the 5 SE states.

That means Ibadan will be bigger than Ebonyi, Anambra and part of IMO state
Does that mean, Nnsuka is bigger than Anambra and Ebonyi?

Do you believe the bolded in the above crap?

kikake:
You remind me of those Yoruba e-rats who take delight in telling Igbos: “go back to your Erosion ravaged Igbo land.” These people are so stupid that they don’t understand that when one part of one’s country is sick, rest of the country is affected one way or the other by the sickness. You are like them. Why do you want only Owerri to be the only modern city in Imo state?

Every time you write “backwater Orlu” as you insult because one asked for development projects in Orlu, you demonstrate that you are terribly sick.

You are too local for this conversation. There is what intelligent people call critical path method. In every construction undertaken, the strictness of the method should be followed. I do not have the insight of method the government in Owerri have adopted for the development of Imo State. However I assumed, though some kind of spread is needed, the bench mark of any such method is Owerri. I started my journey from Okigwe with the help of Orlu but the fact remains Owerri is the capital of Imo State.

ubecharles:
. No.15 deserves utmost attention. If he can fix that Akabo portion, I'll recommend him for a quarter of 2nd term

This portion of the roads was already under construction before the Supreme Court Governor arrived in Owerri.

Trump my man

The dude is the real man. He does not play any poker. According to the some medical experts, face mask should be worn by those who are sick or tested positive for the Wuhan virus (COVID-19).

Calabar1stSon:
The masses are the reasons why politicians think themselves god.

You eulogize a leader whose basic responsibilities is to serve the citizens.

You praise a leader who puts up a structure/facilities and years later remains uncompleted

You eulogize a leader who's selective in giving appointments during his tenure and when another person eventually takes power he continues in the same footprints left behind by his predecessors.

Your gullibility has paid off finally because you can't stand up to the men you call leaders because the law that's supposed to protect you is now against you.

You would fight anyone who speaks against the ills in the government simply because you're benefiting from the loots and then when another government takes over power you become an activists.

You sell your votes and expect a working leader when in reality politics is business as usual. You offer goods and services for money.

Too many uncompleted projects right from when the country gained her independence until date and you're not worried about the future of this country?.

You think the only way in fixing this country is by running away to another country. Have you sit back to ask yourself how those countries were able to get to the level where you all are running off to?

You ask us to pray for our leaders. Are these leaders not part of the religious community?

Today everyone is a cyber-activists, do you think that it's the only option to solving these problems?, Were your votes collated/counted online?

You rather prefer to cry away your sorrows watching reality TV shows when the real realities is what the politicians are doling out on you in a horrific way.

You believe prayer would get you a job. Did you prayed your way through school? Wakeup and smell the coffee.

The job markets are overwhelmed with hundreds and thousands of graduates flocking the streets in search for jobs but you're quick to forget that you elected a man bereft of ideas.

You pray for security and protection of life but you're quick to forget how you bribed your way through checkpoints countless times?

Y'all dead or life are part of the rot in the system of today.

Your prayers are useless if you don't stand up to these evil men. Continue deceiving yourselves with audio prayers.

Who's the gullible one now? You or Politician?

Hate me all you want... I stand for the truth.

I must say Nigeria is way beyond this sermon. Until all Nigerians honestly start to think about the disintegration of the shithole called Nigeria, even their so-called leaders will not take them seriously.
