Minute by MG Smith on the report of the Willinks Commission
15 May 1958
Extract from Minute by MG Smith on pressure from Balewa for self-government on 2 Apr 1960
The Minorities and Fiscal Commissions have not yet reported, but from what we know of the likely contents of the Minorities Commission report and of the very firm demand for new States recently reaffirmed by the Action Group (and supported by the EKET by-elections), there may well be trouble both in Nigeria and at the resumed conference over the settlement of the minority problems.
Achieving this settlement, taking the shock of Regional Self-Government in the North and preparing for Federal elections late in 1959 is likely to give all of us here and in Nigeria a full and anxious time up to the end of 1059.]
