Gowon was the genesis of all our problems

oga028315:
Of course it will be pointless to you since it doesn't push the false narrative of claiming that Igbos were the ones who started dividing Nigeria into states...

They claim Aguyi Ironsi was the one who brought in unitary government for Igbos to dominate other tribes and that is the cause of all the problems of Nigeria till date, but...

You ask the same people who killed Aguyi Ironsi and took over power just about 8 months into his reign why they have been unable to correct the mistake they claimed Aguyi made after over 50 years of only them in power without the Igbos then you begin to hear explanations without logic and common sense.

I mean let's look at it simple terms, you claimed someone took over control of a vehicle illegally and caused damage to the vehicle, you killed him and then took over, after over 50 years you did not fix the damage but further spoilt it by creating more damage but still want to blame the first person for all your failures after 50 years of handling the vehicle and calling yourself a saint while tagging the first handler that you killed a bad person.

Does it sound normal at all?

Bro don't waste your time all of them know the truth but this the narrative the British asked to push and it's still going on till date. Our leaders are warned not to challenge the system that is why all of them are docile. Nigeria is gone for ever cos it's a western project.

Pointless history lesson. I’m out.


xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxx

Oh sure, you think history is just a bunch of useless facts, but I bet you couldn't even tell me who your state's governor is if I asked!

CorperKola:
Even with state governments thats closer to the people we still have bandits roamong about, now imagine if it was regional governments we had. Insecurity would have been way worse han this. We still jave oads f ungoverned spaces ven with 36 state governments

What has state governors done with security votes they are collecting every month.

Money is not command and control of a armed force
That power and authority belongs to the federal government
The only power is ability to hire and fire, somebody that cannot fire you cannot command you

Nigeria matter dey tire person Sha, we claim to love Nigeria but at the same time everybody wants their own state

How Ironic

CorperKola:
No sane person would have gone back to that original arrangement ,its like the forbidden apple , once you have a taste, you cant uneat it.
Of course no one would want strong regions to be able to ever challenge the federal government again. Dividie and conquer
Its not hard to understand
Is it

If we are to go by your logic, why then are you blaming the first person for doing what you are enjoying to do?

CorperKola:

How will the creation of more states now guarante security if the power and authority to control the armed forces belongs to the FG.

Meedon:
We need Okura State in Kogi State and it shall come to pass one day.

Nonsense, what is the strength of your okura state economical

Is this even a serious question
Why do we blame eve or adam and eve for eating the forbidden apple up till today
If we dont blame them, who should we now blame

Chaolin:
Nonsense, what is the strength of your okura state economical

We have crude oil
We have coal
We have enough land for farming
Unfortunately government are stealing our resources without giving us anything in return. Shiooorrrrrrr

State police
More seriousness, dedication and reform of the current federal police

That is why Christ came to correct it, why haven't you people corrected yours after over 50 years ?

Are you people waiting for the Igbos to come back to correct it?

CorperKola:

So we can't have regional police, many of the present governors are not disposed to state police.

There is nothing to correct, even if we correct it i am sure it is you people that will start another civil war again.

Racoon:
General Sanni Abacha really tried for many of the oppressed people of many states in Nigeria especially Ebonyi, Bayelsa and Nassarawa State. But Bayelsa has been a disappointment

Dude was a fan of zoning

CorperKola:

If there is nothing to correct, why then do you still blame the Igbos?

And point of correction, Igbos never started any war, Nigeria started the war...

Guestmale:

Imo the regional style of govet is overrated, states more appropriate for now, this isnt 1959.
Regional police??
Have you been listening to me at all
A region having an armed force is an invitation to anarchy
A state is smaller and far more manageable

We dont want another civil war

Bad behaviour should be called out anytime
Even as jesus christ came for our salvation we still blame adam and eve and God still cursed the serpent

Is it not your secession that led to the war
What are you even saying

chiagozien:
General Yakubu Gowon (1966–1975)
Created 12 states from the original 4 regions on May 27, 1967.



How come when it's falsely claimed Igbo man destroyed regional government?



Which 4 region did Gowon took over and created 12 state?




No wonder those propagate those lies removed history from Nigeria school.



Before attacking me, first tell us the 4 region Gowon created 12 state from if he didn't meet regional government as the leader.

Good met North, West, East and Midwest If I'm correct.

The question you should be asking is what led to the secession?

Konjiboii:
The best thing to have happened to Nigeria was when the military where in power, industries were bountiful, schools where functional and hospitals where world class. I will gladly welcome them back.

You seem to forget that the Military of today ain't the same as before. Then it was simply about duty but now they're in the control of the one in power and he who pays the piper dictates the tune If I'm wrong, let's see what happens should the military take over power again.

Apcnewrecruit:
Gowon didn't create any South Eastern state. Let's be factual
No record of when Anambra was created

Your wise.
I thought it's only me.



Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

fabolouz1:
in my opinion military rule favoured the country more than this so called democracy .

Yeah it did because those breed of the military were of the old stock. The ones now...will only make things worse.

oga028315:

The first ilegal action was the coup and who was responsible for the coup
I dont want to say you seem slow

CorperKola:

It wasn't even the coup, the coup was just an additional of the whole thing, and point of correction, the coup was not only done by Igbos...

Not only Bayelsa state.
Go to Nasarawa State, with all the solid minerals in the state, Nasarawa State is still very backwards and underdeveloped.
Chinese mining company's are everywhere mining their solid minerals and giving them peanuts.

Konjiboii:

Ofcourse military governments were better than the current sets of bandits parading as politicians.

People were a lot more careful not to commit serious crimes then else face firing squads.

Now the thieves are the ones in all arms of the government and being celebrated by people with no commonsense.

Racoon:
"History of state Creation in Nigeria; Military HOSs and States They Created."

OOh i did not know that Gowon was the guyman that broke the regions into 12 states............the ronu crew said it was ironsi...hmmm!

[quote author=Konjiboii post=136968456]We need a Jerry Rawlings situation , we purge any case of corruption and start anew, in a year switch back to civilian rule and have a true fair and free election [/quoteNo Rawlings in the NA.
