PoliticsRe: The Sentence That Ended Regionalism In Nigeria by DMerciful(m): 3:44pm On Jun 09, 2024
Post the actual decree, not Lagos-Ibadan propaganda newspapers
raskymonojendor:
I will post this here again just like I did on the previous dishonest thread you created yesterday.


The coup led by Nzeogwu and Ironsi's unification decree No. 34 destroyed Regionalism. Gowon just finished off what Ironsi started with creation of the 12 states under decree No. 14.

Now that he is president(illegitimate), whats stops him from creating those local governments?
StOla:
The military has been too involved in the Nigeria that existed at different times post independence.

I am happy that the Tinubu regime is proving that the democratic leadership of Nigeria can actually shape Nigeria.

The guts and gusto of Tinubu as seen in his determination to create more local governments for Lagos State when he was Governor, and the refusal to back down even when the OBJ regime was illegally withholding Local Government funds, is the recipe for the renewed hope and expectations we now have that a restructuring of Nigeria is nigh.

You're arguing against fact!
EcoNews:
Which foolish tribe orchestrated the first coup that destroyed the democracy we enjoyed which layer paved the way for coup n counter coup ?

You Igbos did n no matter how you labour in vain to deflate your criminality no one will be letting you off easily.

Every year you foolish soul create this senseless thread to absolve your tribe of the criminality you committed instead of your father to go on your foolish knees n beg for forgiveness.
PoliticsRe: The Sentence That Ended Regionalism In Nigeria by DMerciful(m): 3:40pm On Jun 09, 2024
You're seeing the decree 14 above yet arguing because your mind is set on a false narrative.

Bring the one that ended resource control.
StOla:
Why not show us decree 15 that you claimed ended resource control?

We already know that Gowon created smaller states to replace the regions.

The truth of the matter is once the military took over with the Ironsi government, the regions already lost their powers with the unitary decree of the same Ironsi government.

The question is should we have expected anything less from the 1st military regime even if it wasn't headed by Ironsi?

Maybe not.
PoliticsRe: The Sentence That Ended Regionalism In Nigeria by DMerciful(m): 3:38pm On Jun 09, 2024
Bring the decree, nor be cho cho cho.

Decree 14 is there to read
muykem:
That's a capital lie. Ironsi killed regional government by unification decree of May 1966.

PoliticsRe: Regional Government Is Not Something Matured Yet In Nigeria by DMerciful(m): 3:31pm On Jun 09, 2024
Why would they work together? Every state in Nigeria is bigger than the smallest countries so they should be self sufficient.

Depending on Niger Delta oil made the stares to be extremely lazy.

Smaller states in principle should be more agile and efficient versus coming together which brings lethargy and slow decision making progress because all must agree to move forward.

Edo easily moved minimum wage to 70k while the rest of Nigeria are trying to agree for ages
helinues:
I am still curious about why states within same region refused to work together
PoliticsRe: Regional Government Is Not Something Matured Yet In Nigeria by DMerciful(m): 3:25pm On Jun 09, 2024
You're deceiving yourself. Gowon killed the regions
ElSudani:
Myopic Ironsi was the killer of our founding constitution. Similar constitution is operating fine in Canada where you have French and English living peacefully side by side.

How can 1% be the capital of Nigeria?
Christistruth00:
Lagos Island was the. Capital of Nigeria and not Lagos State
The Remaining 99% of Lagos State belonged to Awolowo’s own Western Region

Do you see that little dot that says Lagos beneath Ikeja in the Western Region?

That was Lagos the Federal Capital

Delta is a state, Igbo is an ethnic group or nationality.

Delta is not an ethnic group.

I'm Igbo from Delta State

No matter how you guys twist things, Tinubu is the worst illegitimate president in Nigerian history
blacknp:
No Nigerian government be it Federal, State, or Local can arrange the self inflicted damages you have put on yourself, be corrected for you in 8 years.

Something that you couldn’t do for yourself for over 2 decades, you expect strangers to come & do for you in a few years?

Dey wait make Bola Tinubu come make your life pleasant for you.
PoliticsRe: What Exactly Is Peter Obi Doing In Anambra State? by DMerciful(m): 10:36am On Jun 09, 2024
Excuses
Deadlytruth:
That tells you that the votes he got in Anambra were based on his ethnicity and not about any records. Tinubu lost Lagos and Osun on account of Religious composition of his ticket and not in anyway about his performances in previous offices held.

Resign? These communist labor leaders are delusional.

You are a very big olodo. I told you to do the percentage of people living in poverty with the total number of people living in the region and you’re disingenuously using the number of states in each region. Oga, go back and do the right thing and stop behaving like an uneducated ipob.

PoliticsRe: It Will Take Another War To Bring Back Regions by DMerciful(m): 4:48am On Jun 09, 2024
Southern states will not support regionalism. They're silent now because they know its not possible.

You expect southern states to support the abolition of their states? Dey play
undiplomatic:
It will be a very hard nut to crack, if the entire 17 southern states supports the return to Regionalism, it will be difficult getting the support of an additional 7 Northern states to make up for a total of 24 states required for the constitutional change.

Nigerians, you voted this man in 2023 but couldn't defend your votes.

Repeat same in 2027 but defend your votes at all cost because Nigeria is facing existential threat with Tinubu.

Vote Obi for a new Nigeria that is POssible!

So it's is SW and Lagos that is your problem in the whole of this matter.

SW is not your region and Lagos is not your state of origin, why are you taking Panadol on another people,s headache ?
You should be more worried about your 4th class marginalized region.

Every part of SW was actually witnessing development until your envious kinsman, Aguiyi Ironsi, truncated democracy and destroyed regionalism via his draconian decree 34. He specifically targeted SW progress. Many of SW properties were snatched and transferred to FGN eg UI, UCH, University of Ife, WNTV, Liberty stadium, Western Nigeria House in London etc.
