Western region consist of 4 Yoruba states
And 2 none Yoruba states.


Eastern region consist of 3 Igbo states and 4 none igbo states.

so out of 23, 7 were none Yoruba.

While eastern region 26, out of 9 were non igbo.


Pls, someone reasonable should tell us who marginalizing the minorities

Please I want to know what Awolowo and co built in Edo and Delta during western regional government after milking their resources to develop Ibadan and other states in west in the 60s

successmatters:
This is outside the scope of the discussion.

The mid west voted nearly 90% against staying with the oppressive Awolowo government.

Sammy07:
Any evidence for this??

, I'll give you the full list if I have it.
This were the ones I know and I saw most.


Awolowo was able to partner with several foreign
investors. These include: National Bank of Nigeria, Wema Bank
of Nigeria, Great Nigeria Insurance Company, the Nigeria General
Insurance Company, the Nigeria General Insurance Company,
Gravil Enthoven and Company, Lagos Airport Hotel, Vegetable
Oil, Cocoa Industries, Odu’a Textiles, Wrought Iron Ltd, Union
Beverages Ltd, Sunga Company, Wemabod Estates, Western
Livestock, Fisheries Services Ltd, Caxton Press, Epe Plywood,
Askar Paints, Nigeria Crafts and Bags Ltd, Nipol Plastic, Phoenix
Motors etc.

None of these are in his home town.

Western newspaper, articles written by AG loyalists appeared in which various ethnic groups of the proposed Midwest were warned of “Benin domination.” In the smear campaign, designed to derail Midwest unity, rumors were spread about how certain posts were going to be dominated by “Benin.”

Their smear campaign didn't start today, the all inherited it from their ancestors

Gabkosh:
Ok

But Oya, I am back on the topic.

Can you defend the below statement

Yoruba had 4 states in the 60s While minorities had 2, yet got 7 high position out of 23

While in your region

You igbos had just 3 states and minorities had 4 and the only got 9 out of total 26.

Come and defend your hypocrisy

Kindly read

Sammy07:
Maybe because of Headquarter. And Maybe Awolowo thought nah regionalism we gonna do till the end of Nigeria.

Even Ondo that produce highest number of cocoa didn't receive anything.
So what are we saying

And we didn't complain

post=89811749:
You always argue like a mad caw, kindly read this report

Gabkosh:
I have no time for imp. Thanks

We have since covered that.

Until you give us pictures of Hotel Presidential, Benin as built by Awolowo, you are accepting defeat.
