aribisala0: My brother, I have questions for you. 1. Was this before Lagos was capital of Nigeria or after? 2. Was there even an entity back then known as Nigeria? The Council of Ibos on Nairaland and its environs would love to know. 12 Likes |

BabaRamota1980:Actually the Europeans brought cocoa among other things like cannabis and Cassava, Guavas,cashews,papayas and mangoes. They encouraged its cultivation across the south of Nigeria but it did not do well in Ebolaland(red soil tins) buut has been very succesful till this day in AkwaIboma axis(The Akwa Iboma are a blessed people). At the time of this report it was not very significant but growing. you need to bear in mind that this is a crop that had no local value and was risky for farmers without guaranteed buyers. In the previous century most cocoa was from South American sources but these were getting exhausted today 70% is from West Africa 12 Likes 1 Share |

aribisala0: Lagos was merged with Southern Nigeria for the same economic reason that Southern Nigeria was merged with Northern Nigeria - the cost of governing Southern Nigeria had become intolerable for the protectorate, they needed funding from an external source. In exchange for funding from Lagos, the protectorate government of Southern Nigeria with capital in Calabar was collapsed. Lagos administrators took over the entire South and made their administrative center in Lagos, the new capital. Basically Southern government folded up to Lagos due to insolvency. Lagos did favor to South, not other way around. This needs to documented as part of history and truth of the Nigerian nation. When people talk about how South sustains North, remember Lagos sustained South. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Abeq, I want to ask igbos some questions.. Do we hold them down, that they were telling us to free them? Is there destiny in our hands Instead of them to go and prostrate before the mallam in aso rock, they were telling us here to free them.. If Yorubas are too powerful to hold igbos down , Then We ought to be worshipped as " gods " 16 Likes |
