Yes the facts are documented, palm oil at (1913- 1914) was the highest resource in terms of export revenue in Nigeria.

Useless Aboki were fooling themselves that their groundnut was used to fund the oil exploration in the East... which yeye groundnut again?

cocolacec:

Was the East the only region producing palm oil? Southwest and South south produced too.

BoboNkiti19:

Huh? South South of today was part of the Eastern region, and when did the Western region ever produce palm oil? thought cocoa was always the major cash crop product of the West.

Jimasun:

West produces palm oil till date.
When did palm oil production become the exclusive right of SE?
Yes maybe they produced more and that was because of South South sef. There is a reason Rivers is synonymous with oil before crude oil was discovered there

Edo,Delta and Bayelsa were part of Western/Midwestern regions,Yorubas had palm oil too.It is not unique for Igbos.
Show us what grows only in Igboland.

Cassyboy2:


Stop writing rubbish. Go and visit your books. South west are not known in palm oil business even to date. The region that produces more palm oil in Nigeria are the South East. Don't allow your hatred for South East becloud your reasoning. Thank you

Jimasun:

Go and tell your elders at home to stop lying to you.
Ondo state is a joke to you or Ogun state is joke to you.
So stating the truth now is hate?
Something must be wrong with the water they use in bathing new born babies in SE, it is like victimhood is embedded in your genes

iberrylee:
See this illiterate oo we all know there was nothing like South East in 1914 and the article didn't state any region which means that million pounds worth of palm oil is produced by the whole Geographical territory of north and southern protectorate, next time don't bring such claim to this forum as this is not Aba or onitcha market beer palor gist

theTranslator:

The victim mentality is very irritating

Colony of Lagos was exporting palm oil, kernels and doing excellently well
