Article structure
Edited article's structure in a chronological order with early life heading, rise to power, prime minister headings - this is in order to best reflect persons achievements and career
- Rise to power, can also sound ominious, a neutral sounding word is better. Some changes are ok, but I have undone some of the changes.talk) 04:38, 25 July 2020 (UTC)]
- Rise to power, can also sound ominious, a neutral sounding word is better. Some changes are ok, but I have undone some of the changes.
- Nothing "ominious" about the heading, besides the terminology is based on the context of the times from colonial to Independence to Federation - and the person's role as first head of government in those three epochs are significant. Furthermore, it could be argued that as PM to a ceremonial President Nnamdi Azikiwe his office was akin to "power". No further changes made to the body of the article just the structure.
- I do not think you understand, edit after edit, some of what you write is subjective and without clear sources. Balewa has one of the best Nigerian biography out there which can help this article and I tell you rise to power is not an heading in any of the chapters. Go to google and search "rise to power", a lot have to do with authoritarian governments, the narrative rise to power is subjective, (better word is better, more neutral sounding), it can also be broader concept, basically, it is not necessary and needed. Because you have an idea of what it means does not mean it is an objective idea, there are way better NPOV terms.talk) 00:27, 26 July 2020 (UTC)]
- Calm, don't be so obtuse - you're taking this way out of context. Reason for the dispassionate edit has earlier been stated - but it seems oft-clear that you're particularly aroused by heedless back-and-forths. Not to worry, I shan't debate this further and unpretentiously yield to your paroxysmal desire.
