WHY THE TWELVE STATES WERE CREATED IN 1967 . 27TH MAY

Lt Col Ojukwu  & Lt Col Gowon 

 EASTERN REGION CONSULTATIVE ASSEMBLY 27th MAY 1967.

We, the chiefs, elders, and representatives of Eastern Nigeria on this day' 27th may 1967 now wish to make the following declarations.
We hereby mandate the governor of the Eastern region Col. Emeka "Odumegwu Ojukwu" to' in no distance time' declare Eastern Nigeria an independent sovereign state with the name/title REPUBLIC OF BIAFRA.
On that same day' Col Yakubu Gowon hurriedly invoked decree( dividing the four regions into 12 states.
You would recall that initially the 12 states Gowon created had no governors' it was on the 28th of May 1967 (24hrs later) that Governors were appointed to govern the various states, making it very obvious that it was clearly a plot to divide and rule the people of the East region.

The sole aim of state creation was to dispossess the Igbo of significant territories' and cause them to be landlocked.
How did Gowon got to know that the Eastern region had finally agreed to declare secession? (BIAFRA)
The traitors from the Eastern region are the reason why the Sultan of Sokoto has 23 oil blocks today while Anyanabos from the region have none.
