Dede1: One advice I give to Nigerian scholars who navigate to Nairaland for intellectual exercise is not to accept Nowa Omoigui’s conjectural craps as gospel. In your replies to my post and that of hercules07, you seemed to load up on Nowa Omoigui’s junk.You are mixing issues up, the first coalition was NPC and NCNC, the second was NPC, NCNC, NNDP. the southern ministerial positions were occupied by NCNC with some positions for yourube NCNC. Akintola's arguement was those NCNC yoruba guys wont reflect anything SW, so the southern positions were shared between NCNC and NNDP which created political acrimony that akintole hated the ibos. take it or leave it. 2 Likes 1 Share |

hercules07: That was in name only, the NPC had the west through Akintola someone who hated Awo the same, hated the Igbos too, they could continue to use the NCNC as a front while Akintola's party checkmated NCNC in the west.As you rightly agreed, it was a coalition govt of three parties. eight ministerial positions were given to the south and NCNC took all posts. Akintolas arguement was that the western seats can not be allocated to the yorubas of NCNC, it should be allocated to the NNDP of yorubas in the west. when the cabinet was reshoveled you guy shouted Alkintola hated ibos. 'On the other hand, we had the Southern Ministers Chief K.O. Mbadiwe, Hon. R.A. Njoku, Chief Aja Nwachukwu, Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh, Chief T.O.S. Benson, Chief J.M. Johnson and Chief Olu Akinfosile; all of them with the exception of Hon. Aja Nwachukwu who took great pains to keep you alive to the fact that they were ministers the N.C.N.C had appropriated the Yoruba share. Chief T.O.S. Benson, Chief Olu Akinfosile and Chief J.M. Johnson in charge of the portfolios that rightfully belonged to Western Nigeria were not true and legitimate representatives of the people of that region." |

hercules07: That was in name only, the NPC had the west through Akintola someone who hated Awo the same, hated the Igbos too, they could continue to use the NCNC as a front while Akintola's party checkmated NCNC in the west.It was these acts to give the Yorubas their fair share of federal patronage that made the Ibos block Chief Akinjide's nomination into Alhaji Shehu Shagari's cabinet and he had to be presented a second time before he got the approval of the Senate. At the time when negotiations were going on to form the government that would usher in independence, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe described himself and his party the N.C.N.C. as the beautiful bride being wooed by the other political parties The N.C.N.C. accepted the suit of the N.P.C. and received as dowry the right to consume Western Nigeria's share of the national cake even though it did not represent the people of Western Nigeria in the federal parliament. The N.C.N.C. discovered after Awolowo's political incapacitation that Chief S.L. Akintola was a tougher nut to crack than Chief Awolowo and decided to make the West ungovernable for him. The assassination attempt on Professor Biobaku was in line with the operation wetie" mayhem going on all over Western Nigeria in which human beings were being doused with petrol and set ablaze. Those dastardly acts were being perpetrated by Yorubas, but the perpetrators, their organizers and co-ordinators were being funded by the government of Eastern Nigeria under Dr. Michael Okpara, according to intelligence reports available to the Western Nigerian government. I was also given a story to surreptitiously leak to the Press. It concerned the attempt to remove Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh as Federal Minister of Finance and replace him with Chief K.O. Mbadiwe. When the Western Nigeria share of the Federal cabinet was allocated to the N.N.D.P., the number of N.C.N.C. Ministers was reduced from eight to five with Chief Okotie-Eboh as the only non-Tho N.C.N.C. Minister in the cabinet. The N.C.N.C. had believed that with its representation in the federal cabinet reduced, to place the important Finance Ministry in an Igbo hand was a desideratum; in other words, Chief Festus Okotie Eboh not being an Igbo man was a second class N.C.N.Cer. The N.C.N.C. requested Sir Abubakar to reshuffle the cabinet so that Chief Okotie-Eboh and Dr Mbadiwe could swap places. An enraged Chief Okotie-Eboh with the solid backing of N.N.D.P. ministers strongly opposed that move. Chief Akintola took it upon himself to go up North and appeal to Sir Ahmadu Bello to prevail on Sir Abubakar to reject the N.C.N.C. request. The refusal of Chief Okotie-Eboh to surrender the Ministry of Finance to Dr K.O. Mbadiwe was a sin so grievious in the opinion of the N.C.N.C. that he was killed alongside Yoruba and Northern leaders in January 1966. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Dede1: I hope you understood how the parliamentary government operates. There was no party with outright majority and the two high earners of the votes were NPC and NCNC hence the coalition government. NCNC retained its number of ministerial appointments and also held the position of ranking minister. House was full of members with different party affiliations.At that time, there was a profusion of eminent scholars and educationists of Southern Nigerian origin. There were two federal government universities in Ibadan and Lagos. Professor Kenneth Dike was Vice Chancellor at Ibadan while Eni Njoku held court in Lagos. An equitable sharing of the national cake would have prevented a situation where these two federal universities were manned by persons of the same tribe, moreso as Professor Saburi Biobaku was as good if not better than the incumbents at Lagos and Ibadan universities. It was not as if Chief Biobaku's appointment would have made Eni-Njoku jobless. Professor Biobaku had been released by the Federal Government to go and head a university in East Africa and Chief Eni Njoku was only being redeployed to take up the East African job so as to give meaning to the principle of federal character which is still in our constitution as I write. 1 Like 1 Share |

Dede1: Ojukwu was always magnanimous and equally sarcastic in every statement he altered to the press during and after the war. Typical example was a statement such as “president Nigeria never had”. When I said a coward will die 10 miserable deaths before the actual death, I meant every word.since you are a better Igbo fictional historian, kindly assist me to confirm how authentic this piece is As part of the exclusive revelations from the 21,000 pages of US documents on the Nigeria-Biafra war, Richard Akinjide the Ibadan lawyer and Nnamdi Azikiwe, the former president of Nigeria told the American consul Mr Strong in Ibadan what that they thought of Ojukwu: Akinjide said: “Ojukwu suffers from Hitler-like megalomania.” He explained that Ojukwu was rejected as a child because he was an offspring of a mistress his father Sir Louis Ojukwu acquired in one of his business trips to the North. The father, a devout catholic, refused to accept the pregnancy that led to Ojukwu was his alone; other mysterious forces may have been at work. So he did not recognise Ojukwu nor took him into his home. Instead he sent the mother and the baby back to the North where the mother made her living as a trader and where the boy was born. Ojukwu like Nnamdi Azikiwe, was born in Zungeru. As the boy grew up, friends of the business mogul prevailed on him to recognise the boy as his own son. He then agreed to do so but the boy was something of an embarrassment so he sent him off to school in England where the boy eventually made it into Oxford University. Akinjide, the former NNDP politician said “he knew Ojukwu well” when he was a federal minister under Tafawa Balewa. He continued: “When Ojukwu returned back to Nigeria he tried to get a job with the Nigerian Tobacco Company (NTC) but was turned down. Akinjide speculated on how Nigerian history might have been different if NTC had given Ojukwu a job. “Instead he drifted into civil service and was given a post as Assistant District Officer at a bush post in the East. He was unhappy in this position,” Akinjide said because he felt his talents were not recognised. Seeking a better road to power and influence he joined the Nigerian army and because of his good educational background, he was soon sent to the elite Royal Academy Sandhurst in the UK. |

Dede1: These are pure nonsensical conjures that have no place in history. It is funny a coward is acting like a coward and still insists he\she is not a coward. There was one military governor in western region. A military governor does not have a battalion of orderlies. Again, it was an act of inherent loudmouth employed by turncoats.culled from the last meeting between Awolow and ojukwu. Ikemba: I started off this struggle in July with 120 rifles to defend the entirety of the East. I took my stand knowing fully well that by doing so, whilst carving my name in history, I was signing also my death warrant. what sane person would start a war with 120 rifles. To me he sacrificed the biafrans. Another person said, my land is occupied bt 35,000 armed soldiers, i need to apply wisdom, his decision saved the yorubas and you saw the brave one that did HUSEIN BOLT. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Dede1: I do not know any Biafran who is clamoring for the healing of civil war wounds. The war has been fought, lost and indelible enemies made. I do not care how anybody tries to slice the civil war it shall remain a mirror before us and reflects the scars from the war. The intellectual tonic surrounding the civil war has been adulterated by tribalism. The only way to bury the hatchet is to disintegrate the Nigeria so that citizens of different nation states out of dismembered Nigeria can channel the brazen hatred for each other into productive energy geared towards mutual competition.Awolowo's reponse to ojukwus question about the west joining the course [size=14pt]if this is cowardice kudos to the president nigeria never had[/size][ Well, I must say that a number of factors have been overlooked in this regard. I would be quite willing to attend any meeting convened by the leaders of the South in the South, but it must be realized that we in the West are in a very difficult position. All the members of the bodyguard of the Military Governor of the Western Region were Northerners; there were over 36,000 soldiers in the whole of the West, most of whom were Northerners, and all of them carry arms You are remote from the West; you have advantages which we do not possess. We cannot rush without rushing to our death at the same time. We are not cowards in the West but we have to move cautiously, because if we do not do that you might not have us alive; you would only have monuments all over the place. 1 Like |

[size=14pt]a word is enough for the wise...... minutes of the meeting between Awo and Ojukwu[/size] Here is the true account of what took place as taken from scripts of the discussion between Papa and Chief Ojukwu (the Ikemba). The discussion was taped by the Ikemba and the recorder was captured after Enugu fell. On Saturday, May 6, 1967, at 5.15 pm, a meeting began to take place, at the State House, Enugu, between the then Excellency, Lt. Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu (the Ikemba) and a delegation of the National Conciliation Committee (Committee) led by the most Honorable Chief Obafemi Awolowo. The Committee was represented by Professor Samuel Aluko, Chief Mariere, Chief J.I. Onyia, while the Eastern Region was represented by Lt. Col Imo, Lt. Col Effiong, Lt. Col. Kurubo, Mr. C.O Mojekwu, Mr. N.U. Akpan, Professor Eni Njoku, Dr. Nwakanma Okoro, Dr. P.N.C. Okigbo, Mr. C.A. Onyegbale and Mr. Ndem with the Ikemba presiding over the meeting. The names are listed for the purpose of verification of facts presented herein below with those of them who may still be alive.............. ....... Papa: The main concern of these delegates is to ensure that Nigeria does not disintegrate, and I would like to see Nigeria bound together by any bond because it is better than breaking the whole place up because each unit will be the loser for it. The economy of the country is so integrated that it is too late in the day to try and sever them without risking the death of one or both of them. So we have come, therefore, to appeal to you to let Eastern representatives attend the meeting of the Committee (ON-GOING NATIONAL CONCILIATION MEETING) I do not want to put myself in a position where I will be treated as an advocate of the Eastern cause. Let the Eastern delegates go there, make their case and then as a member of the Committee I will get up and say I support this entirely. If at the meeting the East and West present what they want for a new Nigeria whether temporarily or permanently, and the North says "no, we are not going to have it", I will go out and address a World Press Conference and send our case to that body and say this is what we have done and the North has turned it down. I will then take any step that is necessary to bring into effect what we want. The North needed to be in a position of being presented with the United front of the South. Ikemba: I started off this struggle in July with 120 rifles to defend the entirety of the East. I took my stand knowing fully well that by doing so, whilst carving my name in history, I was signing also my death warrant. But I took it because I believe that this stand is vital to the survival of the South. I appealed for settlement quietly because I understood that this was a Unclad struggle for power and that the only time we can sit down and decide the future of Nigeria on basis of equality will always be equality of arms. Quietly, I built up. If you do not know it, I am proud, and my officers are proud, that here in the East we possess the biggest army in Black Africa. I am no longer speaking as an underdog, I am speaking from a position of power. The only way for the South to present a united front is for the South to meet and hammer out that united front. It is a point which must be cleared first before proceeding to make a statement of whatever it is. That is why to my mind, at the present stage of the crisis the ideal thing is for the Southern people to meet in any platform and discuss and hammer out any difference they might have because I will have nothing to do with the North. Then going further, it would then mean that to do this the South to meet; because if we wait for their permission, we will wait for ever. On the specific question of whether there is a possibility of contract with the North, the answer is at the battle field. Papa: I do appreciate the points you have made, especially the suggestion the South could take the bull by the horns, convene a meeting of its leaders and work out its salvation. Well, I must say that a number of factors have been overlooked in this regard. I would be quite willing to attend any meeting convened by the leaders of the South in the South, but it must be realized that we in the West are in a very difficult position. All the members of the bodyguard of the Military Governor of the Western Region were Northerners; there were over 36,000 soldiers in the whole of the West, most of whom were Northerners, and all of them carry arms..... I led a delegation to Lt. Col. Gowon on the 7th and at that interview I made it clear on behalf of the West that if the soldiers of Northern origin were not removed from the West we would not attend any further meetings of the Ad Hoc Committee. He said he would do something, of course he did not. We passed our resolution (THAT THE NORTHERN SOLDIERS SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE WEST) and Col. Adebayo did very well and give us certain Yoruba officers with whom to go and deliver the petition to Lt. Col. Gowon. I did give him an ultimatum up to the 15th of May to remove these Northern soldiers from the West. Of course, he agreed to remove them by the 31st of May but the time we returned to Ibadan Northern soldiers had taken up arms and wanted to kill me, to kill Adebayo and all others. Just now Adebayo does not sleep in his house. Somebody told me that he has not been sleeping in his house. I know why they put two policemen with two rifles in front of my house the other day. Of course, I rang up and said I wanted them removed. There were policemen in front of Sardauna's house but they did not save him. The populace, of course, turned against the Northern soldiers. I don't know why Adebayo should issue the release that soldiers should not be taunted. But this is the way we have been doing our quiet fighting. You are remote from the West; you have advantages which we do not possess. We cannot rush without rushing to our death at the same time. We are not cowards in the West but we have to move cautiously, because if we do not do that you might not have us alive; you would only have monuments all over the place. And I may say in this connection of Southern solidarity -- I am sorry to go into what has happened in the past -- in 1953 there was an understanding between the banned NCNC and the banned Action Group; we entered into an agreement, which I hope we will use sometime, to the effect that if the North remained intransigent we would declare a Southern Dominion. This was signed by myself and Zik and I still stand by it; but we prefer that you should send your delegates to this meeting, so that we should, known to everyone, enter into negotiations among ourselves and present a common front to the North. Then nobody can accuse us of conspiracy or trying to divide the country into two parts. I want you to look at it from our point of view. If there were no Northern soldiers in the West the position would be different. And even if by the time I return home the Northern soldiers have gone I still do not want to be accused of perfidy. The issue at hand is not enough for us to say that we do not like the North. That is a negative approach. I think a positive approach will be for us to meet. Unity will last only if it is based on common understanding among us and the basis will start at this meeting. As I said before, I want you to give me a chance of meeting your people regularly. Let us reolve our differences and get what we want and quickly too. Ikemba: If the reason is to get a platform for a meeting between the Southern leaders, I agree very much that we should try and find a platform and here we seem to be presented with a fait accompli. The Southern leaders are here now, so the main thing is to go on and discuss. Papa: It will be something near fraud for us to sit down here and discuss in terms of the South especially as this delegation was sent here by a body consisting of the Northern delegation.... Ikemba: Now coming to the wider question of the East attending, if it is a Reconciliation COmmittee then it must be reconciling warring parties. A Reconciliation Committee can not have the parties within, somehow, it does not work, unless, of course, they have already agreed on the major issues, because reconciliation is to stay in the middle of the warring parties. And one thing is so clear in the Nigerian situation: certainly the North and the East are warring. For any Reconciliation Committee to do justice to the East, it should not have Easterners and Northerners in it. That is one point. How does the Reconciliation Committee expect us to go to Lagos ? Can you, Sir, imagine Sir Kashim Ibrahim coming to the East to meet and discuss ? The critical point of the Eastern stand is that the East cannot go to any place where there are Northern troops. That tells his own story. The North has made it abundantly clear that no association if they are not controlling the central machinery, is acceptable to them. Even in the face of the resolutions of the South, the Emirs, feudalist Emirs, had the audacity to dictate to the South; first that they will not allow the Northern troops to leave the West until they are satisfied that the West has got sufficient troops. Papa: You have talked about Easterners and Northerners trying to go to the same meeting and bringing about reconciliation because they are the two warring parties. I do not think the fight is between the East and the North alone. It affects all other parts of the country save that there is no quarrel between the East and the West and Mid-West. The fight involves all of us. The West at this moment, has its own complaints against the North. The fact that we went there particularly so soon after my withdrawal from the Ad Hoc Constitutional Committee, which I observed was set up by the Federal Government to wage war against the East instead of trying to put things in check, must assure you that we are resolved to find a solution to this. You have also spoken about Lagos or anywhere in the West as unsafe for the Easterners to hold a meeting. Nobody can tell when life will be lost, but I think, speaking the minds of entire people of Western Nigeria and Mid-Western Nigeria, that if anybody can at this stage take the life of an Ibo man or an Easterner, or if any outstanding Eastern loses his life by the act of someone else, the whole of the Western Region and the Mid-Western Region will take it as the end of Nigeria. I can give that assurance on behalf of Western Nigeria and Lagos." [End of all the Awo-Ojukwu quotations in the excerpt - Mr. Lanre Banjo continues:] This meeting was concluded on Sunday, 7th of May at about 2.15 pm with the hope to reconvene and with the Ikemba maintaining that the South must first meet. Before I go further, it would be noted that the Ikemba's view was maintained due to hindsight (sic: LACK OF FORESIGHT). First, Papa has just been released from prison for a charge of treasonable felony. Secondly, he was in Enugu representing the Nigerian National Conciliation Committee. How could Ikemba expect him to chage and focus on Southern plan of pulling out of Nigeria ? Papa was more principled than that. Even prior to his meeting with the Ikemba, he had been falsely accused of having teamed up with the Ikemba in his campaign against the Federal Military Government by being in regular touch with him by phone calls and personal visits to Enugu, to perfect their joint plans. That he had been sending Professor Aluko and others to Enugu for illegal guerrilla training. Given this situation, a sudden change to discuss how the South will unite against the North will definitely confirm the dreadful and blatant accusations already levelled against him............." |

Tony Spike: What I can see in this map is the entity called Lagos colony and protectorate, which later became the Western Region. Did you look at the map properly before posting it at all? By the way, Lagos in pre-1900 likely refers to the enclaves of Lagos-Island, and by extension Victoria Island and other adjacent coastal territories. I very much doubt that Lagos Mainland was part of the Lagos colony back then, I may be wrong though...lagos was a colony because it was conquered by the british, the rest of the western region was called protectorate (to protect from outside invaders) so an agreement was signed to effect this. western region started from jibowu ---- why that bridge from jibowu linking abati barracks to ojuelegba was called western avenue. |

Prof Corruption: There is nothing like autonomy for local governments. There is a clear difference between tiers of government and recognized federating units. Let each state/region be a true federating unit and based on their individual separate constitutions design the LG system suitable for them. State A may prefer a parliamentary LG while B a presidential. State C may even make traditional ruler automatic head of its councils. Let each state determines the structure that best suits its idiosyncrasies.how do we define nigeria politically? if states practices 4-5 political systems, na ojuelegba democracy. (confusion) |
