Simple. The sardunna of Sokoto would have taken his region out of the union as he was certainly not ready to play second fiddle to some bunch of infidels, all in the name of One nigeria where his people were always going to be punching way above their weight but the ibos were desperate for One Nigeria THEN despite the fact that the north had orchestrated many deadly riots against them, resulting in the loss of many lives, mainly ibos, in 1945 and 1953. In fact, of all the major 3 parties, only the ibos through the NCNC were singing the sweet song of One Nigeria, at the time. Awo referred to the proposition as a mere geographical expression whilst the Sarduna would only agree to the idea as long as he 's left in charge of the new nation.

So (a whole American-trained) Dr. zik opted to be a lackey to Tafawa Balewa, a Grade Teacher training certificate holder hoping in the fullest of time to make a bid for the ultimate power but in the main while settled for exploiting his vicinity to the seat of power to deal with his main adversary-Awo and the yorubas.

If war is all about yorubas and Igbos I would love it so start now...see as a coward yoruba is ranting and cursing. ..without your Hausa-Fulani overlord, you are not match to biafrans. .. silly cowards who can't think for themselves. ..you lot claim to be suffercated yet the Hausa-Fulani rule and treat you same way they treat everybody....

if you cowards must know ..Nigeria is country with many ethnic groups against igbos who are simply an ethical group with no military power... yorubas any day you think you are strong and bold, let your only ethnic group challenge the igbos..You people always rant like market women

Minus nigeria and Hausa-Fulani, yorubas are nothing

In 418 B.C. Herodotus, the Greek philosopher who is known as the “father of history”, said “a man who does not know anything about the events that took place before he or she was born will remain forever a child.” Not only was he right but one must go a step further by saying that those who refuse to learn from their history are condemned to repeating its mistakes.

[b]In 1957, Sir Ahmadu Bello, the Saurdana of Sokoto and the Premier of the North, said the following: “We the people of the North will continue our stated intention to conquer the South and to dip the Koran in the Atlantic ocean after the British leave our shores.”

Three years later, on October 12, 1960, he went a step further by saying the following words to the Parrot Newspaper: “The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great grandfather Uthman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We must use the minorities in the North as willing tools and the South as a conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us and never allow them to have control over their future”.

That same year he said: “I will allow Sir Tafawa Balewa to go and become Prime Minister and lead the unbelievers of the South whilst I will stay in the North and lead the faithful”.

One year later, in a television interview with the BBC (which can still be viewed on YouTube) he was asked whether his “Northernisation Policy” would be a temporary or permanent feature. His response was as follows. “In actual fact the policy is a northerner first. If you cannot get a northerner then you get an expatriate like yourself on contract. If we cannot get that then we will employ another Nigerian from the south on contract too. This is going to be a permanent policy as far as I forsee”.

Not to be outdone, in January 1947 on the floor of the Northern House of Assembly, Sir Tafawa Balewa, a man who was to become the first Prime Minister of Nigeria 13 years later, said the following words:

“We do not want our Southern neighbours to interfere in our development. We have never associated ourselves with the activities of these people. We do not know them, we do not recognise them, and we share no responsibility in their actions. We shall demand our rights when the time is ripe. If the British quit Nigeria now at this stage, the Northern people would continue their uninterrupted conquest to the sea”.

The passion for the total domination of the Nigerian state by the North has not in any way diminished over the years. As a matter of fact it appears to have become even more pronounced and, for some, it has become an obsession. Consider the following.

On October 2, 2014, one Aliyu Gwarzo said the following to Pointblanknews:

“When I say that the Presidency must come to the north next year I am referring to the Hausa-Fulani core north and not any northern christian or minority tribe. The Christians in the north are nothing and the minorities know that when we are talking about leadership in the north and in Nigeria, Allah has given it to us, the Hausa-Fulani. They owe us everything. This is because we gave them Islam through the great Jihad waged by Sheik Usman Dan Fodio. We liberated all these places and all these people by imposing islam on them by force. It was either the Koran or the sword and most of them chose the Koran. In return for the good works of our forefathers Allah, through the British, gave us Nigeria to rule and to do with as we please. Since 1960 we have been doing that and we intend to continue. No Goodluck or anyone else will stop us from taking back our power next year. We will kill, maim, destroy and turn this country into Africa’s biggest war zone and refugee camp if they try it. Many say we are behind Boko Haram. My answer is what do you expect? We do not have economic power or intellectual power. All we have is political power and they want to take even that from us. If they don’t want an ISIS in Nigeria then they must give us back the Presidency and our political power. Their soldiers are killing our warriors and our people every day but mark this: even if it takes one hundred years we will have our revenge. Every Fulani man that they kill is a debt that will be repaid even if it takes 100 years. The Fulani have very long memories”.[/b]

You guys are flexing here from the comfort of your homes while underrating good advice probably because you are unaware of the Fulani culture of revenge.
Believe me these ppl are unforgiving, ready to bide their time but eventually always exacting their pound of flesh, even if it means waiting and passing this responsibility to the next generation.

Find below a short description of the Fulani warrior, it went viral via text msg shortly after the Dogo Nahauwa massacre in Jos Plateau State a few years ago - it might help you understand the gravity of what the OP is talking about.

THE FULANI WARRIOR

Never fight a war (hot or cold) with the Fulani. Because they have:
1. No rules of engagement (they just hit)
2. No POW's (they don't take prisoners)
3. No mercy (once they pick out an enemy)
4. No fighting fatigue (they are forever fit and prepared, due to their lifestyle)
5. No need for adequate food and permanent abode (they live on very little and live in the wilderness)
6. No end to hostilities (they fight to finish)
7. No ignorance of terrain & location (their lifestyle makes them human GPS)
8. No deterrence due to casualties (they are strategically distributed all over West and Central Africa, and highly mobile)
9. No need for tranquility (they have no permanent settlements which need peace to thrive)
10. No communication problem once they distribute cola nuts to allies.

Please! Please!! Please!!!......
As a concerned citizen of Nigeria, I want to use this opportunity to advice the owners of the bus that killed the Fulani cows, they better go and apologise to the owners of the cows by paying in cash if not those guys will come back for any bus plying that road at night and you all know what it mean. You can't kill a Fulani cow and go free, it is impossible, they must revenge the death of their cows. Even the villagers might not be spared.
