Not sure if we've covered this before.

ODVanguard:
I'll say it again that you're arguing from a position of ignorance. I'll allow Awo himself to respond to your 'why the West of the 4 Regions' question coz even he didn't feel the state of emergency was justified, considering that other regions also had their own fair share of crises yet the central government didn't deem it fit to declare a state of emergency in any of those hotspots. Read it slowly and hopefully your ignorance would be cured once and for all.

Awo's Reply to the State of Emergency in 1962:

(Excerpts)

[b] “The first question which any reasonable person ought to ask himself is this. Is there a state of emergency in the Western Region? That is the most important question which the Prime Minister and the Cabinet must ask themselves. I submit with greater respect that a state of emergency does not exist in Western Nigeria. “Not long ago after independence, there was rioting of a most severe nature in the Tiv Division of Northern Nigeria.

Several lives were lost, several properties were destroyed, there was arson and a host other crimes were committed. At that time, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa was the Prime Minister as he is the Prime Minister,today. He did not think it fit to call this Parliament to declare a state of emergency in the Northern Region.

Also in Okrika- there was widespread rioting in Okrika; again, several lives and properties were lost. I understand that this widespread rioting in Okrika occurred twice in the Eastern Region. The Prime Minister and the Cabinet did not think it fit on that occasion to declare a state of public emergency in the Eastern Region.

“But, because the Action Group is pursuing the normal democratic processes as laid down in our Constitution to oust someone who happens to be very close friend of the Prime Minister, and also because the Action Group is looked upon as a moral foe to the N.P.C., this very far-reaching provision of our Constitution is now being invoked, only in respect of what might be described as squabbles inside the Chamber of the Western House of Assembly. It is doing violence to our Constitution and doing violence to the construction of words to suggest that what happened in the Western House of Assembly amounts to a state of public emergency.[/b]

I think this excerpt from Baba Awo should be a common knowledge for all Omo karo ojire. It was obvious that the Northerners and the Easterners deliberately conspired against Yorubas during the first republic because of our development and success. As God will have it, both of them got at each other starting with trigger happy Igbos young soldiers killing Hausa/Fulani leaders, and Northerners soldiers retaliating during the 2nd coup. Mind you, Yoruba leaders and soldiers were not spared during the 1st coup by the Igbos and 2nd coup by the Northerners. That's why I'm surprised when I see any Omoluabi begging for unity with these 2 tribes that hate us so much.

Abimbola tactically located the softest available landing spot - the ocean. The emergency notwithstanding, she did this in quite an adept manner that she did not crash, but landed as predetermined. Some others would have made a bad decision and struck the nation with tragedy. For this reason, Abimbola forever remains a heroine in the hearts of all who truly understand the dynamics of piloting an aircraft.

‘‘Flying is memorable. Nigerian airspace has improved a lot. It’s total freedom up there and you get to be yourself. When you are on the ground you go through more stress, that you look forward to flying. For me, that’s the best part of my job. When you land, passengers come in to congratulate you and take pictures with you because you are female. The feeling of having satisfied passengers is priceless.’’

"In our kind of environment this is certainly a difficult thing to achieve for a woman, this is an exciting and memorable day for me and my family - my husband and children - who also share in my joy", she had told journalists at her reception after the flight.

You can choke your ugly face in my asss. I thought you lazy lots like crosschecking the owner. Go and do that yourself. Most Igbo's do not fancy the show off about their business. Most of the companies I have now, do not have a SEO optimization, so they're hardly found. We Igbo people are not your mate. We don't roll with the ugly imps.

Your sense of reasoning is interestingly morbid. It is now MOMAN that will determine the level of success right. Everyone knows that afonja like forming association, from pepper sellers to mechanic to welder etc. We Igbo's we don't enjoy doing that. I'm hundred percent sure it was formed by afonja. If I were to be into oil and gas ,I will never join any useless group. I'm hundred percent sure that the group with be filled with afonja from president to cleaner. You can go and kiss the truth.. We don't engage in such medieval association. we do business and not meetings.

According to reports, “the channel is worth N2billion.” EbonyLife TV is a channel on DSTV which has over 15million viewers in 44 countries including United Kingdom and United States of America. It has strong backing by Cross Rivers State government. This is in line with the state government’s strategy for development.

EbonyLife TV is helping to build a thriving Film, TV and Music industry through strong international partnerships, that can develop local talent and empower the next generation, by building an Entertainment and Media hub at Tinapa, that would represent Nigeria as well as Africa. Another powerful move which the channel has made is acquisition of the services of 13 independent producers to produce film content for TV, a project which a film expert estimates will cost about N2.5 million per production.

As a producer, her recent films such as 'Fifty', and 'The Wedding Party,' were really successful at the box office, and they boosted her financial and professional credibility, substantially. 'The Wedding Party,' is estimated to have grossed not less than =N=500 million, at the box office. A sequel is being planned for later this year.

These people have started lying again. @prodigy24:Why do you people keep doing this?? Taleveras group is owned by Igho Sanomi, a pure Urhobo man! His mother is even a Yoruba woman! Didn't you cross-check before posting this story? How on earth can you claim that Taleveras is an Igbo company? Under what planet, biko nu? Taleveras is a billion-dollar global commodities trading company, and an internationally recognized oil and gas, energy and power conglomerate. If you have any shame at all, you would delete this your Telaveras post, and stop trying to make a fool of yourself. Or what day did an Urhobo man, become Igbo??

In 2001, John Olajide, President and CEO of Axxess, was enrolled as a telecommunications engineering student at the University of Texas in Dallas. During a visit with a family friend who was working as director of nursing at a local home healthcare agency at the time, Olajide noticed multiple un-networked computers and dated technology. As a result, Olajide began consulting with various home healthcare agencies, finding a majority of the issues at hand could be solved through technology. “My business evolved into creating technology solutions to these problems, and Axxess was born,” says Olajide.

Axxess is a home health technology company “with roots firmly embedding in consulting and software development,” states the company’s website. Axxess focuses on providing home healthcare agencies with the solutions they need to run their businesses more efficiently. “We help in every aspect of a home healthcare agency, from clinicians at the point of care with patients, to the administrative and billing,” informs Olajide. “As technology and healthcare both evolve, we are continuously developing new software and other technology solutions to help our clients work more efficiently, and to anticipate and prepare for changes.”
