AreaFada2:Is Obasanjo from the North?If your logic has any rational so why did Pdp & Obj manipulate the 2006 census in favour of the North? You claim the Colonial masters generally hated anyone who is bold & ambitious,they wanted subservient subjects,so why did they choose Dosunmu over Kosoko in Lagos in 1852? |

Jidibia:. I'm certainly not Muslim ok so direct your question to the Muslim. And I can't argue that either. What I'm saying ans insisting is that FFK is a fool, it's a normal thing for people to bow to Royalty, its a mark of respect. He just wants cheap attention by criticising what does not necessarily. |

It is because of elite like FFK dat Nigeria find itself in deer current predicament. Creating ethnic divide on issues of no moment. Being humble makes one most time looks foolish but the end thereof is without regret. At least the humbleness of that great man cannot be equated with the puffiness of our southern elite. The north are reaping bountifully the cultivation of that great man. let be sincere with ourselves the British did not hand over power to North after all Easterners were in control of the country heading major parastatals. That reminds me, why is FFK not talking about his friend Kanu? 1 Like |

[quote author=akigbemaru post=66930188][/quote]That Jerome is a fool like most Niger deltans. They keep saying igbos eill enslave them while the north is already currently enslaving them. Illiteracy and village orientation is a disease. Who go give them resource control ? Saro wiwa and the rest were killed and Bayelsa bombings by their beloved one Nigeria yet envy and ignorance block their low iQ brains to keep hating on Igbos instead. Just like middle belt who killed igbos their reward from their beloved one Nigeria is showing. |

amnesty7: Oba Urhogbua had his secondary education in Sai Tome and had his university education in Lisbon university, purtugal. The first Nigerian to speak poutugues was Oba Olua. Then, the fulanis were still in caves when we had embassy in Portugal. Benin empire was a country of it's own then. |

sapele914: I like it when people go into history. Because most people are bad at it, even if they do not know. Now regarding Dosunmu & Kosoko. It is well known that Kosoko was loyal to Benin Empire, Eleko being a descendant of a Benin prince. On paper the British claimed to want to stop slave trade. Whereas it was about total control of Lagos. Slave trade was banned 200 years earlier already in Benin. Dosunmu (called Docemo by the British) was forced to sign Lagos over to the British under threat of bombardment by British navy at Lagos wharf. The so-called support by the British was indeed a scripted plan to create Lagos Colony. Supporting Dosunmu would make him vulnerable & malleable to the British. And it worked. So read up history properly. As for OBJ & census, do not pretend that that census was acceptable. Lagos for example didn't think Kano still has more population than Lagos, after Jigawa was carved out. Lagos later published its own population estimate. It is on public record. The earlier manipulation by the British (as admitted by some British officials who were involved, unless you want to claim you that was not there know better), has served as a template for the North. Since they have used it to garner more local governments, states, NASS members, resource allocation and other economic and political advantages over time. They were never going to give up that and have locally continued artificial population inflation. Is it not the same Northerners who count themselves? They have tasted free oil allocated on such basis. The North has continued to be an obstacle to any effort at meaningful reform. Be it state police, resource control or decentralisation. In every country, semi-Arid or Arid parts support less population. The coastal areas/river banks and rain forest support huge population growth. Even in Libya, Algeria, Egypt, etc. Only in Nigeria do Northerners claim that the dry areas bordering on the Sahel has more people. The North always claim that they marry more wives and bear more kids. But they do not tell us how many of those kids die of poverty, or the teenage brides who die in labour or get maimed by vagina fistula, making them not able to get married again or have kids after being divorced. 1 Like 1 Share |
