Who is Gumi to put mouth in Nigeria’s economic decisions?


Gumi is a terrorist.

We should stop giving this man the hype he doesn’t deserve abeg.

Whatever you say will not be any different from what Dr Peter Odili and Chibike Amaechi experienced. One thing is common with the three of you, you all took Rivers State money and wasted it with your northern allies in the name of politics.

Nnamdi Azikiwe -

Nnamdi Benjamin Azikiwe, (16 November 1904 – 11 May 1996), usually referred to as "Zik", was a Nigerian statesman and political leader who served as the first President of Nigeria from 1963 to 1966. Considered a driving force behind the nation's independence, he came to be known as the "father of Nigerian Nationalism". He was the first every President of Nigeria even though his role was largely ceremonial. He was born in Zungeru (Northern Nigeria) and spoke fluent Hausa. He was very educated going to Howard University in the United States where he bagged a BSc in Political Science. By 1954, he became the premier of the Eastern Region which dominated the East at the time. Zik is often credited as the "father of Nigerian Nationalism. However, you never hear Igbo youths of today speak about him.

At one of the most historic debates in parliament, it was Zik who ensured that referendum and secession should be considered treason. Obafemi Awolowo had argued that referendums must be included in the constitution of Nigeria, and each region should be allowed to leave the Federation if they so desired. Awolowo wanted very strong regions and a weak center. Surprisingly, Ahmadu Bello, who was premier of the Northern region agreed with Awolowo as the North never really trusted the Federation and believed a weak center was the best arrangement. It was Nnamdi Azikiwe who argued against both positions and instead recommendation that secession be treated as Treason. He also preferred relatively weak federating units and a very strong center. After the long debate, the British waded in an sided with Azikiwe and that was how the call for referendums or secession became treason.

After the elections of the first republic, none of the three major parties had enough votes to form a majority in parliament. Although the NPC led by Ahmadu Bello had scored the most votes, they did not have a majority. Obafemi Awolowo had invited Nnamdi Azikiwe to form an alliance to be led by Zik. Awolowo could not work with the NPC and had reached out to Zik to form an alliance. Ahmadu Bello of the NPC had also reached out to Zik to form an alliance to be led by the NPC. Zik was often called the beautiful bride because the other two parties wanted him. Nnamdi Azikiwe chose to go with the Northern People's Congress, and formed an alliance with the North rather than the West. He also chose to be a ceremonial figure rather than the prime minister. He had thought that if he formed an alliance with Awolowo, then the North will secede. That alliance will later jail Obafemi Awolowo.

Nnamdi Azikiwe wanted one Nigeria at all cost. Both Awolowo and Ahmadu wanted to have option to leave. Nnamdi Azikwe's insistence of having calls for referendums and secession regarded as treason eventually led to the Nigerian civil war in 1967, as the Nigerian military government considered the declaration of Biafra as Treason. In truth Zik never supported nor believed in the Biafran war and had returned to Nigeria in 1968, long before the war ended. Till today a lot of national monuments are named after him, but why do Igbo youths only speak about Ojukwu and not Zik who was actually a president of Nigeria - even if ceremonial.
