Prof Achebe‘s Submission, A Glorification Of Awolowo! by Johnny(m): 6:37am On Oct 07, 2012 |
Prof.Chinue Achebe‘s article causing ripples in the land now only succeeded in glorifying the Yoruba tribal demagogue,Obafemi Awolowo instead of indicting him.The Yorubas who are great opportunists,will keep this “accusation“ secret to be told their children tomorrow that “AWOLOWO FOUGHT AND WON THE NIGERIAN CIVIL WAR WITHOUT GUNS“,and that will become another “feather“ to the cap of the late Tribalist in addition to his,often-braged-about introduction of the so-called “Free Education“ in the South-West. Achebe has made a huge mistake!! |

Johnny: Prof.Chinue Achebe‘s article causing ripples in the land now only succeeded in glorifying the Yoruba tribal demagogue,Obafemi Awolowo instead of indicting him.The Yorubas who are great opportunists,will keep this “accusation“ secret to be told their children tomorrow that “AWOLOWO FOUGHT AND WON THE NIGERIAN CIVIL WAR WITHOUT GUNS“,and that will become another “feather“ to the cap of the late Tribalist in addition to his,often-braged-about introduction of the so-called “Free Education“ in the South-West. It is the glorification of truth,and only the truth shall set the people.It is high time people realised who their heroes really are,if not they will remain dafts like their heroes. As far as i am concerned,nigerian statesmen/women,past and present layed the foundation of ignorace that the country is reaping today.They were shortsighted tribesmen and women in suits,ties,skirts and blouses,who for the mere fact that they speak oyinbo language made them suitable to guide the people into the promise land of modernity,but all they ended doing is reversing the people's evolutionary traits. |
