Who the hell are you to decide for Ndigbo and Azikwe?
Fine..

Main reason Agbari ojukwu can't wake up one days and decide that he wants to match into yoruba land to save them..

Who the hell is Agbariojukwu to decide for yorubas and awolowo?

You must perish by lying along with all. Members of your household NCNC Azikiwe inherited from the Yoruba man Herbert Macaulay had the majority. Azikwe only bit his nose to spite his face which is what the entire igbo tribe is suffering from today.

Because to form a government leaving out the biggest party with the most members of parliament would have been stupid. Npc was the biggest party and could had formed the government by themselves.

Also i don't know if you realize it but ncnc was the only national party. Yorubas need to come straight with themselves about the ibos. I find it harder to like yorubas when they keep back stabbing and attacking the ibos.

Azikiwe made his political fortunes in western Nigeria and he was a true nationalist. Se and sw need to get back to working with each other.

what is exactly the problem with you stupid yotubas.
how did an online debate turn into a curse for his household.one can only imagine the level of bitterness you fools sleep and wake up with.
should I say a prayer for you that let the curse come upon you and you household since you are the liar here because after 1959 election,NPC came first(having the highest members in parliament).NCNC second and AG third.NPC and NCNC have to form the government.

Because awolowo first betrayed zik, zik having realized the type of tribe you people are,accepted the north offer who he taught was the best since they offered him president without knowing they were even the worst..
Judgement: we should all separate because we can never work together,but if we leave,Biafra and odua will likely form alliance like we were before the British joined us together.
lol..you can see that your forefathers have been foolish fulani slaves from inception. but it is yorubas you must blame for your problem. alliance kor alacrity ni.... alakori olori pelebe.

You people are so short sighted ...u have shown tribalism and hatred to a man for years ... because u need him now u want him to form government with u ?

When awolow sacked alafin of Oyo because he was friend with zik in 1955 he didn't think

When he brought tribalism to make zik party to lose majority in South West ..he didn't think

No body was willing to negotiate with awolowo ...he was spoiling zik in front of the north and north in front of zik without knowing they were talking to

Oga don't disgrace yourself here go and study history ...from 1950 down till date ...u would know every action igbos took against yorubas were revenge ...never did the igbo man start anything
So you expected Igbomen from Eastern region to be in charge of two out of three regions as if Yorubas and other tribes in the Western Region should not be in charge of their region... everything was even done through politicking.

All I see is greed. Can you point to your overwhelming benefits from your pacts with Almadu Bello and co.

That Zik was voted for from ncnc did not automatically make him the premier of the Western Region that also had others from AG, etc.

Did Azikiwe win in the Western house and he was denied from being premier?

Are you saying the position of Mayor of a coal mining town that had many people from different tribes is the same with the position of premier, Eastern region or Western region or Northern region?

Haven't you seen commissioners, legislative members, DGs, etc of other tribes in Lagos and elsewhere?
Re: Why Did Azikwe Rejected A Joint Government With Awolowo? by OFFICIAL336: 12:36pm On Jul 08, 2020
Because Ndi Igbo are not traitors.

NPC won the majority of the parliamentary seats and deserves to lead the government.

If Zik had taken that unholy offer, Awo would have sneaked to Sokoto to stab Zik at the back just like he did to Ojukwu.

We know our sophisticated brothers, SHADY AND UNRELIABLE.

First of all. You lose credibility when you start the personal attacks, that's bush league.

Secondly, i never ncnc was an ibo, infact i did state it was a nationalist party so it doesn't matter who he inherited it, whether a Yoruba or hausa man, ncnc was still a nationalist party

Because he was destined to be slave.
Why did Zik rejected a joint government with Awolowo only to accept a 2nd position to the northhuh?


Awolowo even humbled himself to GIVE Zik the prime minister and he will settle for the lesser post..

Why did Azikwe rejected a southern govt and went to form a government with the northerner govt?

Why did Zik break the south unity at federal level to go join the north?


More like Zik igbos brought the North into power and from there, they lost so much to the north.


Why why why??

so you can't counter him without bringing another to defend you,typical of Yoruba people...awolowo already sent someone to the north while acting like he wanted to form an alliance with zik,zik having know what a treacherous person awolowo was beat him to the game by going north,so stop wailing around.

Is that what Ojuku thought you? Did you see the person Awo sent to the North to liaise with them?

Or is it part of the numerous lies your ancestors taught you like that of Ojukwu releasing Awo lies?

Azikwe is a Fulani slave, even if NCNC had the majority, he will still make sure he remain slave to Balewa.

But being prime Minister is better than being a ceremonial president behind the north..


Azikwe was foolish
Re: Why Did Azikwe Rejected A Joint Government With Awolowo? by olisaEze(m): 5:03pm On Jul 08, 2020
Nnamdi Azikiwe was blackmailed by the British. They always wanted the North to come ahead believing that it’d be easier to monitor the new nation through their favorite 'yessiree men'.

They were afraid that an alliance between the East & West would birth a nation that they couldn’t control.

One in which the fake population and alarming illiteracy in the North would see them perpetually dominated by a Southern led govt of intellectuals and freethinkers.

See for your self...

I had also wondered why Zik and Awo could not form government and I recently found the reason.
Britain was the reason Zik didn't form government with Awo.As the independence was coming,the British knew that Zik and Awo could not be manipulated because they still wanted to pull the strings on Nigeria after independence. British knew that Zik collected some loan from eastern marketing board which he never paid back. The British first of all manipulated the census in favour of the North because they knew the importance to democracy. They rigged the elections before the result came out. They also knew that the North could not handle Nigeria due to the lack of the quality of education of Zik and Awo, so balewa needed to be paired with one of the two. British knew that Awo was more principled than Zik, they therefore picked Zik and forced him to take less powerful position of governor General when Zik was made to understand that he would be jailed because of the loan corruption. Zik has no choice than to capitulate. Checkout Smith confession on YouTube.
