Why do you think Azikwe wanted to die in Ibadan

Na palm oil money you wan use match cocoa money

yes car, a pointer to booming economy and only the well fed own cars. Meanwhile,
Paul Anber's essay "Modernization and Political Disintegration: Nigeria and the Ibos" published in the journal of Modern African Studies vol. 5, No 2 (Sep, 1967) 163-179. See pp 171-172 for excerpt:
" '' A system of Universal primary education was introduced in Eastern Nigeria in 1953, though the mission schools had already prospered in the Region long before then. Despite the fact that there was a requirement for limited contributory fees, education continued to be very much in demand. Even at the time when universal primary education was first introduced, the percentage of the population over seven years of age who were literate was higher in the East than in any other Region: East, 10.6 per cent; West 9.5 percent; North, 0.9 percent. Since 1959, the East has had more teachers and pupils than any other area of the country, with the heaviest emphasis on primary education.
Figures for elementary and secondary education indicate that the approximate ratio of teachers to population in 1963 was 1 to every 1,500 in the East, 1 to every 2,500 in th West, and 1 for every 10,000 in the north. Other statistical data reveal how rapidly the standard of living rose among Ibos. The East had the most extensive hospital facilities in the country by 1965, the largest regional production of electricity in the country by 1954, and the greatest number of vehicle registrations by 1963. The economic orientation of the Ibos was also reflected through membership of credit associations:in 1963 the East had 68,220 individual members, the west 5,776, and the north a mere 2,407." ''...

If Azikwe had been the premier then, say bye bye to free education, free primary health, skyscraper, first TV, first Stadium, Odua investment, minimum wage Increase, etc.

He won’t fail to do that only because he is Igbo but he will fail because he can’t offer the brain he dosen’t have.

It takes a brainy man like Awolowo to pioneer all those firsts among first. Infact I read a report on what obstacle Awolowo faced when he was trying to implement the free education policy.

The way he handled the situation even against the world powers advice that time and the backlash he got from the Agbekoyas made me salute him more.

jneutron4000:
am sorry I can't help your situation.

LordVoldermort:
Don't flatter yourself you didn't change anyone's opinion anyone who read your comments would have no doubt of the kind of person you are

You kept ignoring the fact that Ojukwu was incharge of the Eastern region and you ignored the fact that Tafewa Balewa and Akintola imprisoned Awolowo to begin with

In short you behaved like a typical politician saying what people think already, but never saying the truth

Adefatima:





There’s no source till then it’s nothing but ipod news

And no where’ did it say you were the most developed

DMerciful:
Go and cure your ignorance and come back to correct yourself. The internet is free but use credible sources like britanica or encyclopedia americana

Adefatima:



This landlocked depend on European Union for access to the sea

And the richest European nations have sea access

UK GERMANY FRANCE & ITALY

Same way richest regions and people in Nigeria are Yorubas and Niger delta

They have access to SEA

So you did not see the intext citation? Dont tell me you need a link to a hard copy book!

Bro I challenged all the Igbos on that thread to bring just one evidence either pictures/Videos/Newspaper archive to back up their claim that Ojukwu released Awolowo.

None of them was able to bring any one. Not even one.

What does that tells you? It tells you most of you are following the bandwagon of propaganda that was orchestrated by Sir Ojukwu and his cronies to pollute the mind of the Igbo man about Awolowo and also to justify the hateful profiling.

Now please, can you bring any evidence from a reputable source either image/video/ newspaper archive that can serve as an evidence of Ojukwu releasing Awolowo?

If you can’t bring any, then let’s end this discussion on this subject matter.

Note: I won’t accept the verbals of Ojukwu himself coz Gowon also said he released Awolowo but I chose to use an independent source as my evidence.

LordVoldermort:


And this proves Yorubas did not make Lagos rich

Lagos was destined to be rich because it had sea access

DMerciful:
Your video is compelling enough. So I take it that Gowon released him until a contrary evidence surface!

jneutron4000:
people like you are worse, because it is better you do not know than for you not want to know. Your case is beyond the help I can render to you.

Even when Ojukwu was alive, he could not open his mouth to lie that he was the one that released Awolowo but his people would not just stop peddling lies, was it not last week or so that Gowon had to scold Chimamanda against her concocted lies and assumption of the civil war. This people are just terrible and full of lies in order to play victims of their own mistakes.

I can type gibberish and add a name
So far it’s unverifiable it’s fake news

DMerciful:
Shifting the goal post again! You said no source, I pointed it out, you said its unverifiable. Go to a standard library and look for that book. All he needed to do was cite a reference, he cannot put the book here!

Show me the eastern region was the most developed and wealthiest

DMerciful:
It seems you see development only in form of flyovers and macadamized thoroughfares! Abeg, google indices of development

Please mention me anytime you get a contrary evidence.

Peace!

Adefatima:


Show me the eastern region was the most developed and wealthiest

We are talking about Yorubas building first tv first sky scrapper and free education and health care and being the wealthiest

Adefatima:


And yours is based on hospital beds and number of teachers

Adefatima:



Yorubas didn’t celebrate awolowo when he was alive ?
Are you igbos daft like this
Metaphysical come and here another Ibo propaganda
