Stop vomiting gibberish all in the name of posting comments. No western state comes close to first 5 in palm oil production and yet u claim palm oil production is glory for also producing palm oil while denying He eastern region same for cocoa even though the second highest cocoa producing state in Nigeria is an Eastern state. 1 Like |

I don't know the assests the man was talking about that should have been shared by the Midwest and old western region after creation. I never knew Nigeria had a prime minister in 1956. its a total lie that nothing was done in the old eastern Region, economically it fared better than the whole of the North, second only to the Western region. Baba should go and retire from politics abeg, he got enough from Obj, Yaradua and Gej. |

Edwin Clark should stop lying to the public and respect his age. During the Western region era development was even throughout the region. No part of the region was left behind in any area. As to the Western region disconnecting the Midwest from television coverage, that is a blatant lie. I still remember as a child that the people of Lagos also could not establish connection with the television station. 1 Like |

I promised not to banter words with you @leofab, rather question your intellectual gullibility. Zik became premier in 1954 after he was chased away from SW for his selfish ambition & and an attempt to abuse the constitution, he was succeded by okpara in 1959. Y'all one & the same as revisionists. It amuses not only me but also saner minds of esteemed nobility how second rater story tellers @Eastfield1, @igboid, would gloat over an epic mediocrity. Mission schools INTRODUCED not KICKED OFF universal primary education in the eastern region in 1953 as reported but the system kicked off evetually in 1956. Prior to its kickoff, the old educational system was very much applicable still. HEAR THE TRUTH; AWO(ibile)kicked off universal FREE primary education in SW in 1953, while it takes MISSION SCHOOLS(oyinbo) introduced UPE in the East. So, who be boss?. I repeat, igbos adopted the FREE but failed for lack of "ego". I'm going to bust you on palm oil production in 1914 in due time. Kiss the truth! 1 Like 1 Share |

MayorofLagos: You call Igbos in various parts of Nigeria refugees ref·u·gee definition noun plural noun: refugees a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster. "tens of thousands of refugees fled their homes" synonyms: émigré, fugitive, exile, displaced person, asylum seeker; boat people And the same you, will frown nd oppose Biafra or secession , I wonder what genetic make-up you were made of. I thought you said Igbos are part of Nigeria, yet you call them refugees. Lwkmd. U senile bigots are always shooting yourselves on the leg I am Igbo, I gat a family house in Lagos, built from scratch, payed taxes in full. I don't know how that describes me as a refugee. Igbos are business oriented, you see them in various parts of the Country due to their resilience, hustle, hardwork, creativeness, the go into your lands/regions and achieve greatness build houses, establish big businesses...

MayorofLagos: Nah, everything is still centred in Lagos under this one city-state set up so of course surrounding states will get the dividends of that. You argument for a pioneering and advanced region today would be more credible if we through out the fact that the so called south east was almost completely levelled for example.

Dude just hide ur face in shame because the very independence u celebrated yesterday was single handedly brought by Zik. Ask ur father if u dont knw history of Nigeria.

Even if you are correct, if Coastal tribes made up a mere 2% and we assume Asaba and co were put into Western Nigeria as 1%, then 9% of the town was still from non-Igbo Western Nigeria in 1929!

LOL! An igbo lady@leofab who doesn't know jack about zik's political career, all she does is twerking her artificial lazyaxx. Enough of ewedu & amala(your favourite yoruba food) & stick your nose in a book. Who was zik before becoming a ceremonial president?. Sleep well& wake up with sense. @freshdude99, your darkest ignorance is highly pronounced. It's a fallacy that zik led our independence. Who raised the motion for self government? Who seconded the motion?. Who & who protested the british imperialism in nig? Zik was only a nationalist(baba one nigeria)no more, no less. Additionally, zik was able to win some seats in the SW basically because NCNC was a largely acceptable party & grown in SW cos its ex-president was a yoruba man(herbert macqulay) before zik took over due to macqulay's death.

freshdude99: Yoruba people are not tribal bigots like you people who always think that only the people of your tribe could succeed you at the head of an organization. It was on record that as soon as Zik took the headship of the party after the demise of Herbert Macaulay that he began to appoint fellow Igbos into the position that should have been filled by people of other ethnic group, thereby forcing the likes of Awolowo and Enahoro to leave the party. Even after Zik became president, he began to make sure majority of vacant position in the Federal civil service in Lagos were filled by his fellow Igbo's( this is why Igbo's used to say that they dominated Lagos before the civil war).Zik did this at that time in order to counterbalance the overwhelming presence of Yoruba people in the multinationals and industries. Zik did not stop there. When the University of Ibadan was formed , he made sure that over 95% of the lecturers were Igbo's to the chagrin of the Yoruba's, who at that time ( and now) could boast of at least three qualified candidates for every single qualified candidates the Igbos could boast of. We Yorubas know that Zik was only a nationalist by mouth,but his actions show otherwise. |

freshdude99: Olodo, as at independence Lagos was not part of the western region. So many parts of today's Lagos like Ikorodu and Epe used to be part of western region then At that time , the western region was richer than Lagos. Most of the fund used to develop Lagos at that time came from the Western region. As at today like it has been for many years, the. FG had been taking at least four times of what Lagos receives from oil revenue away from Lagos. As to the issue of federalism, we Yorubas have always been at the fore front and that has not changed. You should not confuse the statements of some Yoruba politicians in power now to mean the position of Yoruba people on the issue. In Yorubaland we don't worship politicians or follow them blindly. Everybody is entitled to his own opinion. 1 Like |

Igboid: The document you submitted can be easily used to mislead. The Igbos having more teachers in school does not mean the same as having more pupils in school.The west employed the numbers of teachers they can cater for . Pupils ratio to teachers at that time in the west used to be 40 to 1 and we used to have shifts. Some people will go to school in the morning while the rest will go in the afternoon. The document also confirmed what I said about Zik using his position and influence to make sure that Igbo people practically occupy all the positions in Federal ministries and parastatals. Did you notice that the writer did not mention the Igbos dominating the multinationals and Industries. Why? Because it requires real competition to get employment with those companies while government work was based on man knows man |
