Please those that have better understanding should come and tell me the difference between 1950s and 1954
Four years

Do you know that was exactly the time Awolowo and Zik was president and just two years short of when Jonathan was president

It takes the same time for a person to get a university degree

And our bone of contention was Obudu which was founded by British business men.

Don't you know date and time

Hope you have eyes

If you have eyes, you would see where I listed his achievements even when he was only premier for five years before going to Lagos

He built the largest Wood processing industry in Sapele.

He built schools and Hospitals..

He didn't turn Edo and Delta into his farm land like Zik
Can you mention the hospitals and school he built in Midwest Polywood- and veneer-manufacturing plant in Sapele, one of the largest in western Africa was established in 1925, Awolowo was still a baby then grin

Obudu cattle ranch resort

1) A quick check of the history of the famous Obudu cattle ranch resort shows that the Ranch was established in the year 1951 by British business men even before Nigeria was separated into three regions in 1954.

So how could Eastern region government have developed something that existed before them?

Easterners always stand on crooked and fabricated stories.

Note: This write up is not to promote tribalism

So during the late hours of yesterday in a heated conversation in a Topic created by ethnic supremacists in an attempt to rewrite history to favour their narratives, A well known moniker who goes by the alias of Anambra First Son claimed that the Eastern region under igbo administration had developed minority tribes more than other regions during the first republic of Nigeria.

Well! under cross examination by this writer, his claims were busted as mere myths.

Here are some of the claims busted as lies so far, others would come shortly.

Obudu cattle ranch

Rice mills in cross River

Platations etc..

Obudu cattle ranch resort

1) A quick check of the history of the famous Obudu cattle ranch resort shows that the Ranch was established in the year 1951 by British business men even before Nigeria was separated into three regions in 1954. So how could Eastern region government have developed something that existed before them?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obudu_Mountain_Resort

Rice factory in Cross River

2) According to the governor of Cross river state, his state had no rice mill until 2017. Hence, before they had a rice mill, the rice cultivated in Cross river area were taken to Abakaliki for processing. He even went on to allege that most of the rice called Abaliki rice were all gotten from Cross river state.

https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/ben-ayade-cross-river-to-complete-ogoja-rice-mill-before-december/brtc4bz

Plantations of cash crops

4) Plantations of cash crops had been on since the colonial periods, I honestly feel it's a new low for any region to claim plantation as an achievement of some sort. Every region emphasized its development around plantation of cash crops in the first republic

4) it also worth noting that the only two factories eventually sited in amongst the minorities in the East like the old Cement Factory in Cross river and Glass factory in Portacult were sited there only after MINORITIES IN THE WEST HAD LEFT TO FORM THEIR OWN REGION

So What happened from 1954 to 1963? Why did the igbo led East first set up a cement industry in Ebonyi in 1962 before Cross river? Your guess is as good as mine!

INSERT

Despite the shorter life of the Western region when compared to the Eastern region, The largest wood processing Factory in Africa was set up in Sapele by UAC during this time.

In addition, Awolowo left them a legacy that positioned Edo and Delta states as those with the highest level of literacy in the South South today, even as most Yorubas admit today that Awolowo should have treated the minorities better.

Stay tuned for the next episode of myth busters Nairaland edition.


You are the type of character who would have claimed and swore with the gods of osun that Awolowo was the premier of western region in 1951. In addition, that Awolowo developed western region with three or four years he was the premier of western region. I suggest you take your nonsense somewhere else.
