July 1961 - The South Must Welcome The North - Northern

July 1961 - The South Must Welcome The North - Northern Nigeria Premier, Sir Ahmadu Bello, advocates closer co-operation with the South. The North is beginning to have an increasingly strong influence on the rest of the Nigerian federation, and this has not pleased everybody in the South. They accepted then that many Southerners were more sophisticated and were busy showing this fact off. Now that northerners have caught up, it is only sporting that Southerners must accept them both as fellow Nigerians and as equals. (Photograph by Drum Photographer @ BAHA)
