Description: NIGED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:DEC 1967 Ð Why The War Broke Out? Ð AfricaÕs youngest head of state, Major-General Yakubu Gowon, is fighting hard to keep total Nigerian unity. Many people thought that Major-General Gowon, in view of the strained relations between the North and the Ibos, would seek to consolidate a northern hold on the rest of the country. Others secretly feared that the young general was out to launch himself on a political career. But by the creation of twelve states in the federation (even when it was known that many northern leaders were opposed to it), Major-General Yakubu Gowon has disabused the minds of people. His appointment of a federal executive council embracing, undiscredited civilians as well as inclusion of civilians in his war cabinet is enough evidence that Yakubu Gowon did not set out ambitiously to establish a military dictatorship.
