Politics / Re: Fashola Switches On The Lagos Festival Of Lights. PICS. Eko O Ni Baje O.... by okokomeji: 8:04pm On Dec 23, 2012
Lagos state the JOY of every Yoruba man! Oba je ti! If you are Igbo, get it in your thick skull that no matter how many years you have lived in Lagos or Yoruba land, you are still a visitor and likewise me as a Yoruba man considered myself a visitor in Igbo land. But for Greedy Igbo people that want "Indigenous Clause" so that they can be governor of Lagos State! It is now an history! Don't even expect no commissioners from us anymore. You were all excited after Babaginda finally moved capital to Abuja after 30 years of Lagos as capital. You thought that may warrant any political advantage to you ungrateful souls! Now, you see it crystal clear that Yoruba hospitality has no equal! Shameless NDIGBO people!

I think Garri Ijebu is only good for drinking, because yellow Garri flattens Ijebu Garri when it comes to making Eba. Also, Kwara Garri is way better than Garri Ijebu. Ijebu Garri always tastes conc and sour, while Kwara Garri tastes mild, which is more prefarable.

@ Mecuxxxx or Mekunnu or mekuturu
Get it straight on your thick head, if want presidency, you have to earn. I heard you claimed ibos are the most populous in Nigeria, why can't you win presidency by popular votes, you waiting on rotations?
Say no to rotational presidency, it’s a fraud. If practiced, I bet it would not hold two terms before Nigeria disintegrate. Polemic Ibos, let us remind our selves that there is no royal road to success, you have to earn it. If you want presidency you have to earn it. In 1999 APGA Biafra contested, 2003 APGA Biafra contested and 2007 APGA Biafra contested.
South South got to the dais of presidency, because they earn it, no miracle in the world would resuscitate Yar Adua and Jonathan, still owns presidency as his birthright till 2015. Nothing polemic ibos will do, if you don’t vote for Jonathan coming 2011, all other tribes in Nigeria will have his back. Anyway, we all know that power of incumbent is real.
As an authentic Nigerian with no duplicity like ibos, I will unequivocally say that I don’t care who will be president coming 2015, it could be anybody within Nigeria’s entity. But one thing for sure he must earn it.

Aloy~Emeka:

OKO-OBO- meji is back with his mission statement:

Ladies and gentlemen: Presenting Obatala to the international world adds to innovation to the high-tech world. Obatala can transmit ultra violet rays and help advance the study of nuclear medicine and rocket science.In today’s chaotic, uncertain, and high-tech world, there is essentially only one type of design that is going to survive. This is the electronically configured organic OBATALA.

We are undergoing a second Industrial Revolution and it will transform every aspect of people’s lives. The changes that large corporations used to take a decade to implement now occur in 1 to 2 days. Technologies that are successful will be designed to thrive on change and the structure of Oduduwa designs will have common characteristics. Two years from now there will be nothing but electronic gods AKA i-god. Brick-and-mortar gods may not go away, but click-and-mortar gods will become the only means to survive. In addition, every country will need to keep its finger on the pulse of its citizens. Priorities will change very rapidly. What Nigerians will pay premium tithes for will become a commodity so rapidly that those[especially igbos with flat heads] who lose touch with our Obatala will be candidates for extinction.

I, OKOKOMEJI, on behalf of Oduduwa Gen-X descendants happily presents OBATALA-RELOADED. It's green, earth friendly and totally free from any bio-harzard.


I like when you indulge yourself in creative thinking like this one right here, rather than your foolish old ways. I thought you had shrimp or fish brain before, now I may conclude that you just chose your polemic ways out of volition. You can criticize but be mild, don't let it be obvious that you had ulterior motive for doing that. Be warned Alloy'Emeka or Mixture Emeka!

latch:


Having said that;
@okokomeji , i know you put in a lot of effort into your write up. I'm really not interested in verifying them, nor digging up what ibos have done. My simple answer to you is this: the Greek, Arabs, etc invented a whole load of stuff way back in history, does that now make them more advanced than, say the United States? or havent you heard the saying: "I get am before no be property"

Yes course, even our fore fathers used to say it that 10 kings, 10 reigns own this world; nobody will rule this world foreever.

But that doesn't me we should not give kudos or honors to whom they due to. That's why I rubbish the like of Aristotle or Theophrastus as father of logic and knowlegde. History will tell that civilization starts from Africa, how in just one day, someone will just wake up and called himself father of logic and knowlegde. How about the first people who had lived millions of years?

Then, when we talk of Africa, you cannot put aside the achievement of Yoruba people, especially if you trace down their lineage from the begining of this world.

Check this out: "African Science Before The Birth Of The New World" by Dr. Ivan Van Sertima.
This is the quote by Claudia Zaslavsky. ""
We did not know that Africans had math ematical systems we thought they counted on their fingers. Claudia Zaslavsky wrote book on African mathematics. She did not go to the little tribes she went to the centers. The Yoruba, for example, have a very sophisticated number system. Where the Africans needed mathematics, where they had to use it in trade, over hundreds of years, they developed mathematical systems. They also developed a range of mathematical games. ""

That tells you much about Yoruba people don't forget that we created Oracle which gave rise to modern computers!

@ all Biafailed a.k.a Ibos


I am particularly one of your staunched supporters for the actualization of Biafran Land in Eastern jungle by 2015 as prophesy has accurately described. So, that when you go back to Ibo land which is just approximately 28,000km2, which just by the size of Oyo State; then you can easily turn it to Mecca, Japan, Dubai, Israel, USA, London, Canada, Australia e.t.c. of Africa.
I know one thing for sure, the Rivers will never join you; since they have land, which is almost equal to the whole Ibo land tongue tongue tongue Then, when Kasalas burst those who claim to be ibos among them, surely know that they would have to swim or walk totally inverted back to Ibo land in Eastern Jungle. grin grin grin

Therefore, being a through bred Yoruba boy, I shall have guts to praise all my idols, role models and progenitors, without have to have rebellious monkeys "Oyegbos" come out in multitude with their polemic usual character to criticize them and if I reciprocate mutherfuckas with compactic criticism, they play race card and sober!

I don't even know who to praise from my heroes again, if I talk about Awolowo "the foremost paragon of excellence" idiots will call him tribalist. Meanwhile, regional governments expose the self-determination power of each region, which makes Awolowo perpendicularly stand tall. If I talk about Abiola, them go say na thief, anything about our culture na lie, na dem own Ife before, we chase dem comot.

We claimed we came from the East, which is Egypt. They have traced Yoruba people back to Egypt, the criteria they used are language, titles of the kings, arts and e.t.c.  http://www.raceandhistory.com/cgi-bin/forum/webbbs_config.pl/noframes/read/2139

Now, Ibo people who claimed Isreal, Ancient Greece have started putting Egypt in their traces just because it's been proven that Yoruba came from Egypt.

You ignorant people claim one Nigeria and use Peter to pay Paul, you come to our land in name of one Nigeria equipped with just 20 nairas and after two years the fortunate ones will go back to village to build mansions and never pay taxes to local government where they make money to build village mansions

@ Chisco or Chimpanzine




Thank you , but you got to know that Yoruba people made Nigeria what it is today.

In education, they are leading!
They built the first primary, secondary and university in Nigeria
Ondo state has the largest number of primary schools (920) and Secondary schools (220)
Ekiti State has the largest number of professors in Nigeria
The only two competative institutions are located in SW.    


In politics,
1) They had the first polical party in history of Nigeria (Nigerian National Democratic Party) (NNDP), founded by Herbert Macaulay the grandson of Bichop Ajayi Crowther.
2) The second political (National Youth Movement (NYM)) this party was underdog in 1938 and upset NNDP.
3) National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons (NCNC) founded by the same Herbert Macaulay in 1944 at the age of 79 and due to his ailing health reliquished the mantle to Dr. Azikwue.
But alot of Igbos don't even know about the history of NCNC, because they grew around it, they thought it was created by Igbos. They even boosted that NCNC won more seats in Western region that AG. Since NCNC was created by Yoruba man, that was why the Yoruba moguls like M.K.O. Abiola and co poured Billions in the party to go against Pa Awolowo's AG. Then, Awolowo told Abiola that he would not get there too.      
Herbert Macaulay's family had so much histories that have one way or the other impacted Nigeria.
Herbert Macaulay's father built the first secondary school in the whole Nigeria
Herbert Macaulay's grand father,  Bichop Ajayi Crowther, the first African bichop
Herbert Macaulay', the first Nigeria Engineer, he also single-handedly kicked the British out of Lagos and Nigeria. He was the first Nigerian to contest elections with British government in Nigeria and won three times back-to-back in Lagos.

In culture

Ife arts are the most sophitiscated relic to ever come out of Africa.

In religion
The first and foremost religion ever known to mankind ORISHA, we Yoruba created it, it's a prototype for other religions like Islam, Christianity and Buddishism.
We created Ifa (Oracle) which Greeks, CHinese, India and e.t.c.wanted to steal from us. Yoruba Ifa divination odu is the most complete in the world it has 256, Chinese's I-chang only has 8 and Greek radian has just 4.
I called Yoruba Ifa, the father of modern computer.    
Yoruba Orisha religion, it's the only religion that came out of Africa. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoruba_religion

Why Igbo people are claiming they are Catholics and doing mua mua kissing under pope and also playing third world country fiddle under pope. We Yoruba people created our own Christian religion called "Aladura." They have spread all around the world.
1. Christ Apostolic Church

2. Eternal Sacred Order of Cherubim and Seraphim

3. Church of the Lord (Aladura)

4. Celestial Church of Christ

After all these churches in the same 19 century some other Yoruba founders surfaced again and spread christianity all around the world. Deeper life church founded by Pastor Kumuyi is the third most populous church in the world. Then, redeem (RCCG) is there too.

Tell me what church in history has Igbos founded that made it to the world?

This my little short anecdote is mainly directed towards cave tribe "ibo," if you are from other tribes and feel offended my bad! If that is not enough for you, I say Bleep you too, I don't give a fc.uk about you anyway.


Tell me what your region did ahead of Yoruba South West region before 1960.
Next time, when you brag about Igbo's education, don't try it around Yorubas. You already know that any spot your people hit today, we (Yorubas) had been there, done there and past there two millenniums.
In 1950, the primary and secondary schools in ONDO STATE alone is more than the whole schools in the East.
Thats not convincing enough.
They see all the states in East before they named (Ekiti state has the fountain of knowledge) a state where every family boosted of atleast one professor.
In the modern day Nigeria, Ondo state still has the highest rate of primary schools (960) and secondary schools (220).
Nigeria as of today boosts 105 tertiary institutions and more than 60 is from the west alone.
The two only institutions that made it to worldlist (Ife and OAU) are from South West. If they are going to include third one, it will be UNILAG.
Between 1953 to 1959
The first region to grant autonomy in Nigeria
One of the most efficiently run civil service in the Common wealth.
A respectable judicial system as against the Sharia law system of the north.
The first industrial estate in Africa.
Free and efficient health care delivery system.
The first radio and television station in Africa
The best road network in Nigeria.
Free education at all levels with an effective scholarship scheme, which still accounts for why there exists a yawning educational gap between the west and other parts of the country.
The first international stadium in Africa
The first ever tallest building in Africa (Cocoa house) commissioned in 1965

Muritala Muhammed, seized power from Gowon. Knowing that the Federal civil service was dominated by the Yorubas, because of their early exposure to Western education, 10,000 civil servants were sacked in a day. This was widely celebrated in the whole Igbo land with Ogogoro champagne popping in the air; hoping before the end of 1990s Yorubas strength would be weaken. Ha ha ha ha, oops! Before they know we still going super-strong!

By 1970, Nigeria has six regions and nine Universities (each region has one university except the South West with four Universities). Hear what British research scholar J.S. Eades said.

This is to all ibos to read and digest for me cool cool cool

To let you convince beyond a reasonable doubt that Yoruba’s superiority to Igbos is not by accident; and it’s a corollary which started during the time of our fore fathers. When you are culturally inferior that doesn’t speak enough volume about you?
Then, I said if those facts are not enough, I would show the achievements of Oduduwa traits before modernity.

1) They formed the language with largest number of Idioms, proverbs. The number of consonants and vowels is more than the ones in English Language. Also the language with most stress and accent marks more than Spanish and French! Prove me wrong?
2) Yorubas were the first to urbanize. (Built strong structure with mud bricks, while your troglodytic people still living in the caves).
3) Due to early urbanity, they produced woven fabric (Aso ofi or Aso oke) through warp-and-waft method, while many cultures practiced walked butt-naked or sometimes with banana leafs wrapped around private parts.
4) They discovered the first (almighty formulae to solve puzzles) which is called Ifa Divination (which still continues all around the globe).
5) After Sumerians people of river Nile (which flows backward) they were the second to carved out canoes; and the first to travel across Atlantic ocean down to North America. Christopher Columbus got to America 1449 (by the time they had the first National census in Luxemburg, Germany) and one of the warriors in Chinese dynasty said, he had sailed down there seven decades before Americans; with all that being said, they found a trace of trades between native Americans and Africans, with the astonishing life-size head of Obatala’s sculpture erected in America (which through carbon dating test, dates back to 709BC).
6) Discovered the medicine that puts Yorubas on the map up to date as the only tribe in the world with highest rate of twins birth or multiple birth.
According to archeologists' record, Yorubas had the highest rate of art and culture artifacts and relics in Africa besides Egytp. Including the headless scupture of NOK headless fertile woman. Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, the greatest modern sculptor and carver of all time, called the NOK headless relic sculpture (one of a kind and genius of African arts.
7) They made the first bassuka Local guns to curb internecine wars
They built the first organized society with a complex king, chief and warrior's clans.
9) The artifacts and relics they left behind made IFE arts to top the life in Africa
10) As the toll of modernity takes ancient cultures to the brink of extinction, Yoruba idols keep resuscitating all around the world.
11) The made the first significant drums (bata and Kudi), these drums still top the list of African drums. During the slavery, these beating drums were banned in America; they were beaten with connotations that made slaves formed rebellion against their masters. This why five Yorubas top the list of drummers of all time all around the world. Tony Oladipo Allen was among them. He had beaten drums for Fela Anikulapo and Victor Olaiya with numerous white bands around the world.
12) the cowries their first money for trade and barter before foreign intrusion, which later used to make decoration of gods; still survived up to date.
13) Oranmiyan staff erected in Ife long before discovery of North America, formed the prototype for a national monument in Washington DC. Oranmiyan used his staff to commemorate his warriors, USA uses “NM” to salute its falling heroes or solders.
14) The beads of old ages still valuable
15) Through their unique grout and chants (they influenced Jazz, Blues and Hip Hop).
16) Then, due to their genius in their time, they imbibed in us the best legacy, which I called innate knowledge.
This is why Yorubas stand out everywhere around the world in Education!

@Ijawman or ill-jerk monkey (ibo boy that hides under Ijaw identity.

I beg my Yoruba brothers. Is Lagos the only Yoruba state? How come Lagos, where many non-Yorubas reside and pay huge taxes, is the only Yoruba state they are proud of? The easterners are proud of all their states. Go to Calabar, Enugu, Rivers, etc, the govs are performing, despite the evil machinations of the Yoruba and their hausa-Fulani cousins.

I think after my calculaton below, which is nothing but the truth (you will not be proud of Calabar and Rivers.
To the Ijaws and we Yoruba westerners, Isacc Adaka Boro was an hero and a legend; but to all Bia-failed people or ill-jerk monkey (he was a criminal) just because he got back Port Harcourt and River state from the greedy Igbo people (just like how OJUKWU is a criminal to Ijaw people).
Let me do the math for you fool! Check from this Bia-failed link below to calculate your remaining landmass. http://www./Biafra%20facts%201967.htm
Birthday: May 30, 1967

Capital: Enugu (Umuahia from Oct. 1967)

Population: 15 million

Area: 30,000 sq. miles

Ethnic Groups: Igbo, Ibibio, Efik, Ogoja, Ijaw, etc.
Back then, the Bia-failed landmass was 26,000 sq. miles; but they claimed from the above website that it was 30,000 sq. miles, which I believe was a hoax.
Then, to satisfy you, I will use 30,000 sq. miles to do my calculation.
Here it goes: Multiply 30,000 sq. miles by 2.5 to convert it to Kilometer square = (75,000 km²)
Now, go back to Ethicity, just push Ibibio, Efik, Ogoja and Ijaw to the side (because if you ask them if they are Igbos, they will nearly got you bitten before they would reject it overthere dead body to be called Igbo).
This is what constitutes Igboland:
Anambra (4,844km²)
Enugu state (7,161 km2)
Imo state (5,530 km²)
Abia state (6,320km²)
Ebonyi state (5,530 km²)
Total is (29, 385 km²) not up to Kogi  state (29,833 km²) talkless of Kwara state (36,825 km²)




Then,Efiks, Bekwara, Ibibio and Ejagham (own Cross river and Akwa Ibom) and they are 5 million strong
grin grin grin

Cross river (20,215km²)
Akwa Ibom  (7,081km²)
Total landmass is (27,296km²)

Then, Ijaw and Annago
Delta state (17,698 km²)
River state (14,201 km²)
Bayelsa state (10,773 km²)
Total landmass is (42, 672km²) if you add Edo (17,802 km²)
Total is (60,474km²) more than times two of the whole Bia-failed nation. Damn it, y’all just got donk son! undecided undecided undecided

Taraba state 54,473 km²
Adamawa state (36,917km²)
Benue state (34,059 km²)
Total land Hausa took away from the East (125,449 km²). Haba! Y’all got donk again! In my own opinion, there is nothing like South East, since majority is from the North. Let’s put Bia-failed land with its (29, 385 km²) to the North. How about that son? grin grin grin

These Kidnappings And The Destruction Of Igbo Nation


Written by Churchill Obinna Okonkwo
Monday, 15 June 2009

In the poem “The Second Coming" published in 1921, William Butler Yeats wrote that “… everywhere the ceremony of innocence is drowned; the best lack conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.” Kidnapping with passionate intensity is the only way one can describe the present situation in South Eastern Nigeria.

The worst of Ndigbo appears to have arrived and taken control of their lives, redefining their value system, traditional believes, morality, and everything they used to know and cherish. While acknowledging that moral decadence in our society cuts across almost all the ethnic nationalities in Nigeria, the alacrity with which the worst in Ndigbo have pervaded their societies and are now seen as role models calls for a critical examination.

I will use the recent wave of kidnappings in Igbo states to drive home my points. It is no longer news that the risks of kidnapping is now higher in south east Nigeria than in Niger Delta region. The passionate intensity with which some umu afo Igbo (sons of the soil) have taken to the act of kidnapping has left me bewildered. To make a clear distinction between why there is happening in Igbo land and not in the middle belt, northern Nigeria or western Nigeria, you need to try and answer this question; If the act of kidnapping is a reflection of the absence of law and order in Nigeria as a whole, why must it be in Igbo land that it has turned into a money making venture without any other cause or justification other than greed?

What a load of lies. UI was just a college of the university of London when UNN became the first full fledged uni in Nigeria in October 1960. That is why it is called University of Nigeria. UI became autonomous two years later and unilag came one or two years later. Yorubas did not have qualified people to man UI and Unilag when Oyibos left. So Igbo people took over.

To let you convince beyond a reasonable doubt that Yoruba’s superiority to Igbos is not by accident; and it’s a corollary which started during the time of our fore fathers. When you are culturally inferior that doesn’t speak enough volume about you?
Then, I said if those facts are not enough, I would show the achievements of Oduduwa traits before modernity.

1) They formed the language with largest number of Idioms, proverbs. The number of consonants and vowels is more than the ones in English Language. Also the language with most stress and accent marks more than Spanish and French! Prove me wrong?
2) Yorubas were the first to urbanize. (Built strong structure with mud bricks, while your troglodytic people still living in the caves).
3) Due to early urbanity, they produced woven fabric (Aso ofi or Aso oke) through warp-and-waft method, while many cultures practiced walked butt-naked or sometimes with banana leafs wrapped around private parts.
4) They discovered the first (almighty formulae to solve puzzles) which is called Ifa Divination (which still continues all around the globe).
5) After Sumerians people of river Nile (which flows backward) they were the second to carved out canoes; and the first to travel across Atlantic ocean down to North America.  Christopher Columbus got to America 1449 (by the time they had the first National census in Luxemburg, Germany) and one of the warriors in Chinese dynasty said, he had sailed down there seven decades before Americans; with all that being said, they found a trace of trades between native Americans and Africans, with the astonishing life-size head of Obatala’s sculpture erected in America (which through carbon dating test, dates back to 709BC).
6) Discovered the medicine that puts Yorubas on the map up to date as the only tribe in the world with highest rate of twins birth or multiple birth.
According to archeologists' record, Yorubas had the highest rate of art and culture artifacts and relics in Africa besides Egytp. Including the headless scupture of NOK headless fertile woman. Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, the greatest modern sculptor and carver of all time, called the NOK headless relic sculpture (one of a kind and genius of African arts.
7) They made the first bassuka Local guns to curb internecine wars
They built the first organized society with a complex king, chief and warrior's clans.
9) The artifacts and relics they left behind made IFE arts to top the life in Africa
10) As the toll of modernity takes ancient cultures to the brink of extinction, Yoruba idols keep resuscitating all around the world.
11) The made the first significant drums (bata and Kudi), these drums still top the list of African drums. During the slavery, these beating drums were banned in America; they were beaten with connotations that made slaves formed rebellion against their masters. This why five Yorubas top the list of drummers of all time all around the world. Tony Oladipo Allen was among them. He had beaten drums for Fela Anikulapo and Victor Olaiya with numerous white bands around the world.
12) the cowries their first money for trade and barter before foreign intrusion, which later used to make decoration of gods; still survived up to date.
13) Oranmiyan staff erected in Ife long before discovery of North America, formed the prototype for a national monument in Washington DC. Oranmiyan used his staff to commemorate his warriors, USA uses “NM” to salute its falling heroes or solders.
14) The beads of old ages still valuable
15) Through their unique grout and chants (they influenced Jazz, Blues and Hip Hop).
16) Then, due to their genius in their time, they imbibed in us the best legacy, which I called innate knowledge.
This is why Yorubas stand out everywhere around the world in Education!






okokomeji-

That's what I don't get with these Igbo/biafra folks, they whine and complain about yoruba people and  trust when it really should be the other way around.

History tells us who really should not be trusted. Because of their magnanimity and cordial nature, Yoruba people are moving on and striving for a better Nigeria while Igbo folks still dey pass blame and constantly trying to re-write history.


You guys must think we be mumu,

You lay your bed with deception and treachery so stfu, chill out and lay on it.  

I dey feel you jare!

In the west, especially SW (we always hold our leaders responsible for their actions).
^You see the trace in UI, when Arisekola all convoy cars (which included on in town limousine) got burnt because he crossed the line with Abacha.^
^Jakande with his excellent jobs well done in Lagos as governor, he still finds hard to clarify to us reasons by he accepted Abacha’s offer.
^An elderly got molested and had butt-naked in Toyin Street (Abiola’s house) for denouncing June 12.
In Biafra, it’s on opposite. They could curse and talk bad about other tribes and Nigeria everywhere you go, but play race card when other tribes talk about your tribe.

Just to prove to you clearly that Eni Njoku and Kenneth Dike got to those positions through Federal Character and Quota system and not by Merits. The two of them stole our South Western money to fund Bia-failed mission in 1966. I put Igbo people in the same analogy with Hispanics in America, they are not about development, they just want to make that money and send everything back to Mexico (this is just what Igbo people be doing in our backyard, we built everything by ourselves!
Tell me what your region did ahead of Yoruba South West region before 1960.
Next time, when you brag about Igbo's education, don't try it around Yorubas. You already know that any spot your people hit today, we (Yorubas) had been there, done there and past there two millenniums.
In 1950, the primary and secondary schools in ONDO STATE alone is more than the whole schools in the East. grin grin grin
That’s not convincing enough.
They see all the states in East before they named (Ekiti state has the fountain of knowledge) a state where every family boosted of atleast one professor.
In the modern day Nigeria, Ondo state still has the highest rate of primary schools (960) and secondary schools (220). cheesy cheesy
Nigeria as of today boosts 105 tertiary institutions and more than 60 is from the west alone.
The two only institutions that made it to worldlist (Ife and OAU) are from South West. If they are going to include third one, it will be UNILAG. cool cool grin grin grin grin
                          Between 1953 to 1959
            The first region to grant autonomy in Nigeria
•   One of the most efficiently run civil service in the Common wealth.
•   A respectable judicial system as against the Sharia law system of the north.
•   The first industrial estate in Africa.
•   Free and efficient health care delivery system.
•   The first radio and television station in Africa
•   The best road network in Nigeria.
•   Free education at all levels with an effective scholarship scheme, which still accounts for why there exists a yawning educational gap between the west and other parts of the country.
•   The first international stadium in Africa
•   The first ever tallest building in Africa (Cocoa house) commissioned in 1965

Muritala Muhammed, seized power from Gowon. Knowing that the Federal civil service was dominated by the Yorubas, because of their early exposure to Western education, 10,000 civil servants were sacked in a day. This was widely celebrated in the whole Igbo land with “Ogogoro champagne” popping in the air; hoping before the end of 1990s Yorubas strength would be weaken. Ha  ha ha ha, oops! Before they know we still going super-strong!

By 1970, Nigeria has six regions and nine Universities (each region has one university except the South West with four Universities). Hear what British research scholar “J.S. Eades” said.
QUOTE from ((The Yoruba Today,

J.S. Eades

(Originally published by Cambridge University Press 1980)
))
The first is the sheer mass of material available: the Baldwins' bibliography (1976) has nearly 3500 references, to which I could add a few hundred more. The Yoruba must be unique in Africa in having four universities located in their homeland, all with flourishing history and social science departments deeply committed to the academic mode of production.

Before I start with you, check this Bia-failed website: http://www./Biafra%20facts%201967.htm
Birthday: May 30, 1967

Capital: Enugu (Umuahia from Oct. 1967)

Population: 15 million

Area: 30,000 sq. miles

Ethnic Groups: Igbo, Ibibio, Efik, Ogoja, Ijaw, etc.

Resources: Palm produce, crude oil, coal, natural gas, limestone, iron ore,
cocoa, timber, etc.

Human Resources: 500 doctors, 700 lawyers, 600 hundred, 300 economists, etc.

University: University of Biafra, Nsukka [projected University of Port
Harcourt]

Head of State:
General Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, jssc.

Out of 15 million Biafrans you claimed back then (you just only had 500 doctors, 700 lawyers, 600 hundred, 300 economists.
I bet you, just in Ekiti state back then where every family has at least one professor had more than 1,500 lawyers, 1,500 Engineers and 1000 economists and not to talk of the whole South Western states! So, you can keep you lie to yourself, I don’t want it.

Meldrick:

The only good thing he did for Lagos was Fashola and he must stop associating himself with the success Fashola has achieved because if Fashola was like Tinubu, Lagos would be far from development.

I apprecite the works of Awolowo but I must give more kudos to Azikiwe. He was the true nationalist. He was never sentimental and then interest of Nigeria was first in his heart. Awolowo had the interest of the Yorubas first before Nigeria.

As for Yaradua, I don't see any reason why he should get unnecessarily infuriated by Tinubu's behaviour. The man has something up his sleeves but he must be ejected from Aso Rock before 2011.
@Meldrick

Dr. Azikiwe was an epitome of success too; but his clandestine involvement in Bia-failed mission speaks volume and makes me think nobody should be trusted; if an elderly statesman could do that?
Check this Biafran link below, they called him “a roving Biafran leader; but he feigned sickness for us to travel abroad.

http://www./Biafra%20facts%201967.htm

Trusting Ndigbos again with power in this country would amount to suicide. The memories of the 1960s are still fresh with the rest of us when the Ndigbos conspired among themselves and lunched brutal attacks on eminent sons of Nigeria from the North and South West. They brutally killed eminent people like Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Sardauna of Sokoto and Akintola. The then president, Azikiwe knew about the plot and so embarked on a prolonged trip abroad with an excuse to seek medical attention. His personal doctor who was among his entourage had to leave his oga abroad becouse he was tired and was already running out of his personal esta code. Unknown to him that his oga had a hidden reason for his prolonged trip. Thank God their plot backfired and they were called back to order.
Kini big deal? Why you hate what you can't conquer and fear what you don't really understand? I guess I know it, sense of inferiority complex!

Sunny_bobo:

Actions like payinga paltry sum of 20 pounds to any one with deposits in the banks regardless of the amount in the account. To me that's FINANCIAL CRIME of the FIRST ORDER with the intention of subjugating and making us subservient all the rest of our lives, in the event of the selling off of our national corporations and consequent acquisition of ownerships under the term "nationalisation" and so many other despicable plans and schemings that failed because God's with us,
Haba! Awo gave these un-appreciative people (Igbos) 120 pounds each, that's like 480,000 naira by today's currency conversion. I wish I had that fool!
When bad decisions favor you, many of you will keep quiet, but when it back rolls, you will open your damn mouth to play a race card.
Remember, Awolowo won the general election, but they claimed it was insufficient counts, because of two-third policy. Then, a lot of Yorubas paid their allegiance to Awo by boycotting the then government. Biaf-rats, just jumped to government under Hausas' influence (they didn't complain about that one ooo). The ironic part of it (most of these government functions, they wanted to dominate were built by Western Region self-government, which were later converted to Federal Government properties in the name of nationalization.
“Just to demonstrate Igbo people precocious altitudes and self-centered mentality. The then government wants Quota system and Federal character just to help (East that just got out of war and North that is educationally less-privileged against the Educational developed West.
The two only federal institutions then in the whole Nigeria, are UI (University of Ibadan) and UL (University of Lagos) built by western region governments but later converted to federal universities.”
1)   In 1960s there were several Yoruba professor already, but just in the name of Federal Character as it’s been stipulated in our constitution. Igbo professor (Kenneth Dike) was opportune to be the Vice Chancellor at Ibadan, he had finished his tenure and would be replaced by Professor. Then, he played a race card by calling tribalism; maybe he wanted to turn the post to his birthright?
2)   Eni Njoku held a court and later became Unilag Vice chancellor, he was due to be replaced when he pulled a race card and raised a deafening yell of tribalism and financed students to raise hell and mayhem in the course of which Professor
Biobaku was stabbed in an assassination attempt.
3)   The same trait was found in Charles Soludo, after five years that even led to capsize of stock rate; he was about to be replaced when he cried of tribalism. Then, not even up to three days after he retired, he said he wants to run for gubernatorial election.
4)   Dr Nnamdi Azikwue, an elderly statesman openly supported Biafran militants and went on a sojourn leave abroad by feigning sickness.
5)   Chukwumerije Ojukwu did the same thing.

Muritala's overthrown government favored Igbo people so much (when he sacked 10,000 workers in just one day)-- that's why you got to love Hausa people and put your hatred away.

To me that's FINANCIAL CRIME of the FIRST ORDER with the intention of subjugating and making us subservient all the rest of our lives, in the event of the selling off of our national corporations and consequent acquisition of ownerships under the term "nationalization" and so many other despicable plans and schemings that failed because God's with us,
How is God on your side when you don't have nothing to show for it?
The 2008 states' statistics for internal revenues (out of 13 states that generated more than 10 billion nairas, Yoruba states made it all, except Ekiti state-- I am talking about Lagos, Oyo, Osun, Ogun, Ondo, Kwara and Kogi). That tells you, you should never underestimate the innovative power of Yoruba people.
