In other words, what you guys care about is ethnicity and nothing else?

Ironsi and Ojukwu are Igbos, and supported decree 34, a civil service Decree

But Gowon is a Northerner, so his decree 14 that abolished the 4 Region and created 12 states, and his decree 15 that ended resource control, are highly welcome

Ok grin grin grin
If any government does what Ironsi did today, Nigerians will still resist it. Nobody wants state civil service to be under fg control and what Gowon did by giving autonomy to minorities is still popular till tomorrow.
No, resource control is not the most important part of true federalism. Autonomy over your own affairs is what is most important. States in actual fact don't need resource control to work properly. They need state police and they need to generate their own revenue among others

Thats because you guys dont know what unitary governance is. You can't have unitary governance where there is resource control, resource control is the most important aspect of federalism, and Ironsi kept resource control, while Gowon removed it. The only thing you people keep making noise about is a civil service Decree, Decree 34. While Gowon who balkanised your Regions with Decree 14, created 12 states, took away resource control with Decree 15, is out there laughing at you all grin grin
Ok o, pray tell me in your words, what is unitary governance?
While at it, tell me how did Ironsi kept resource control? What did he do or did not do to keep resource control, intact?
And lastly, which arm of govt is in charge of resource control?

Look at the set of people we have as leaders in Nigeria!
So,a president of a country do not know the content of agreement,yet he signed it.
And you people say this country can move forward.
So, Gowon is telling me that if a foreign interest bring a paper for him to hand over Nigeria to them ,he will feverishly sign it and hand over the resources and the entire citizens to foreign country without knowing?
This are the type of men that were to be laying the foundation for Nigeria future .....men who do not know their left from right.No wonder this country is like this!

It is now that I know that it was Pa Gowon that caused Nigeria civil war and not Ojukwu.
Wike should go and sing to that man.. agreement is agreement..ooo!

Yeah, What Ironsi did by putting the civil service of the 4 Regions under his office was so bad, Decree 34. He is an Igbo man

But what Gowon did by abolishing the 4 Regions entirely, creating 12 states, taking away resource control, and putting the civil service of the 12 new states under his office, is commendable. He is a Northerner


Nice one grin grin grin

Gowon did not unify the civil service under himself or under the FG. He abrogated the decree 34. Gowon is a minority you know and Northern minorities were the first to fight for autonomy. Infact the British conducted a referendum for Ilorin Kaaba and they opted to join the west but their wish was trampled upon after independence by the NPC/NCNC government. The same NPC/NCNC government were quick to approve a referendum to split the western region. It is only natural that a government led by a Northern minority and a Yoruba will give autonomy to the minorities asking for it and that was what they did. They did the right thing and the majority of the country supported them. Ojukwu and Gowon had no locus standi to determine anything for Nigeria on their own.
