Mynd44, I can view you oh! Why was the Akure thread taken to the travel section when Enugu, Imo etc had theirs in the politics section? The absurd thing is that lot of political dicussion were held there! |

DiademSh07:Now you're beginning to get the point of ZIKISM. When elections throw up a candidate that the voters believe can serve their best interest, no one can do anything about it. In that 1952, the first Mayor of Enugu was Mallam Altine from Katsina. Altine almost lost his life thee years earlier, in the struggle for better conditions for colliery workers, and had practically established himself as a dependable leader of the masses. Political fusion was progressing all over Nigeria, until that Carpet-Crossing by people elected on NCNC ticket, such as Adisa Akinloye, Anthony Enahoro, et al. So the Military Regimes tried to prove that what works in the United States, and the engine of their success story, can be replicated in Nigeria. 1 Like |

Sweetguy25: His ego and greed got the better of him. Sir Michael Okpara is on record as saying Zik chose Balewa because he felt could control the "olodo" aaboki. As Balewa enter he change am for Zik sharply. 5 Likes 1 Share |

TooNoisy: lol....Zik didnt serve under Balewa. He formed a coalition with Balewa where posts were EQUALLY shared. He got the presidency as lesser post - so to speak - ONLY because d NCNC had lesser number of members of parliament in d coalition. In 1979, shagari struck an alliance with Ekwueme's party - a second string party in d east just like what APGA is to d PDP in d South-East today. Cabinet positions were EQUALLY shared. Can you compare these two coalition with d alliance that formed APC where Buhari is filling govt positions with people from his region without challenge. A lopsided coalition. Trying to loop in Igbos into Yoruba servitude to d North is just laughable. Have u ever asked yourself why Awolowo refused to form a coalition with North in d first republic?? Why he refused to take a northern running mate in 1979?? The sooner u can answr these questions, the sooner you'll come to terms with your pple's slavery. 1 Like 1 Share |

And both Azikwe and Awolowo are dead oo If we still hang to the past we would never move forward. The Igbo calling yorubas "cowards" shows they are cowards (No sentiment) Awolowo and Azikwe are dead we don't even know where they are. Let make our future and stop the hate. |
