muykem:People like him,Emeka Anyaoku, late Gani Fawehinmi,Bolaji Akinyemi and other numerous statesmen Nigerians were never and not president because of Nigerians like you who rather saw and see people like buhari as good for president. It's very unfortunate that Nigeria is "blessed" with people like you. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Do you see how the biography of a great man looks like? Not the one that used force, snatch and bribe policy to be where he is now....with zero biography except what are in contention.... Rest in peace Prof......may people like you with good and identifiable biography in Nigeria continue to multiply both academically and politically.... 1 Like |

casualobserver: Because people like you have never read decree 34, you dont know it was a civil service matter The person who destroyed Regionalism in Nigeria and introduced unitary rule was Yakubu Gowon who abolished Nigerias 4 Regions with Decree 14, the created 12 states to replace them. Gowon the took away resource control with Decree 15 1 Like |

gidgiddy: you are clearly very naive. Ask those who were around and are more knowledgeable. Gowon merely took it further and created states in a bid to check mate Ojukwu. Ojukwu then hurredly declared seccesion before the new states could come into being knowing full well that once the governors of the new states took office he is powerless. It's like your children in the future saying there was local government autonomy in 2023 because of what is in the law, you and i know there is no such thing. 2 Likes |

gidgiddy: You people are good at twisting history. As from the appointed day— the Federal Military Government and the Federal Executive Council shall be known respectively as the National Military Government and The Executive Council; the Federal territory shall be known as the Capital territory; the provinces, including Kaduna capital territory, in schedule 1 of this Decree which immediately before the appointed day were respectively comprised in Northern Nigeria, Eastern Nigeria, Western Nigeria and Mid-Western Nigeria shall be known respectively as the Northern group of Provinces, the Eastern group of Provinces, the Western group of Provinces and the Mid-Western group of Provinces; for the purpose of administration each group of provinces shall subject to the authority of the Head of the National Military Government, be under the general direction and control of a Military Governor appointed by the Head of the National Military Government; 3. 1. As from the appointed day all offices in the service of the Republic in a civil capacity shall be offices in a single service to be known as the National Public Service; and accordingly all persons who immediately before that day are members of the public service of the Federation or of the public service of a Region shall on that day become members of the National Public Service: 5.1. Power to appoint persons to hold or act in the office of permanent secretary to any department of government of the Republic or any other office of equivalent rank in the National Public Service, and to remove persons so appointed from any such office shall, as from the appointed day, vest in the Supreme Military Council. 2. Before appointing any person by virtue of this section, the Supreme Military Council shall consult the National Public Service Commission. The minute you are under the authority of the center and all your civil servants report to the center you are no longer an independent regional government. Like I said earlier, it’s like telling your children in future that because the law says local governments are independent so governors did not control and dictate local government chairmen and control the funds in Nigeria between 1999 and 2023. Let’s not go into why this was done, I don’t have energy today. Let’s just say he created the mess that has plagued us for over 60 yrs and the motive we all know was not altruistic. Unfortunately it backfired on not just him and his people but everyone else. The irony that he then became sec gen of aohaneze, fighting for freedom from the enslavement he birthed. That is where it started 2 Likes |
