eral employe health insurance
program which starts next July
would be affected If they
changed their present health
insurance coverage from one
carrier to another before the
effective date Of the new pro-

The CSC's answer: mo action
that an employe takes in con-

benefit coverage will affect his
eligibility to enroll under the
new health benflts program
He or she may change from one
plan to another offered by the
same carrier, he may change
carriers. or he may drop his
coverage. However, if an en-
ploye drops his coverage prior
to enrolment in the health
benefits program, obviously, ne

Chief Awolowo and the Ac-

tant financial and organiza-
tional assistance to Middle
Belt leaders in their attempt to
establish these states.
But under the federal con-
stitution 1t is virtually impos-
sible for new states to be cre-
ated. The response of the
Northern Regional government
led by Sir Ahmadu Bello. which
is pledged to maintain the re-
gion's present boundaries, has
been to try to head of the
movement through patronage
to educated Middle Belters,
stern police methods, end some
local reform.
That this policy has not been
wholly successful was well illus

pendence celebrations in Oc-
tober when pagan Tiv tribes

Points for Unity
Three things hold Nigeria
together against the pull Of
these centrifugal forces:
/. The unifying factor Of so
years Of British administration.
2. The common bond Of the
English language.
8. The realization among the
educated class that Nigeria
can only become great If she
remains united.
The last is the most potent
force for unity In the country
today. But Nigeria's leaders
hold strongly divergent views as
to how this unity can be
achieved.
Nnamdi Azikiwe, Nigeria's 8
Governor General, founder of
its first political party. and
long time boss OF the Eastern
Region, has maintained for
years that q unitary consti-
tuition is the one path to unity.
Sir Ahmadu Bello, who con-
trolls a plurality Of the seats In
the Federal Assembly. main
tains that the people Of each
region can only think Of them
selves as Nigerians after they
have come to regard themselves
as Northerners. fasteners or
Westerners, rather than as
Ibos, Yorubas or Fulanis.
Urges More Regions
Chief Obafemi Awolowo,
leader Of the federal opposition
and president of the Action
Group Party which controls
the Western Region, asserts
that the way to solve the mi
norities problem is to create
more regions based primarily
on tribal afiinities.
