Sagamite:

Abeg more stories like this about a great woman that changed Nigerians' lives and we refuse to celebrate.

Nigerians will rather celebrate Atiku (the billionaire civil servant) than to celebrate Beko Ransome-Kuti.

This is very on point.
Almost every one who has passed through mayflower junior school as a pupil learns and posseses a unique and beautiful style of handwriting. . .courtesy Sheila's initiative.
Its hard to be close to her and not be touched or impacted in one way or the other. . .

But Nigeria will prefer to honor Dame Patience with a national award and ignore the priceless likes of Sheila.

We are truely a deluded nation.

Does anyone know that Pastor Kumuyi, the great man of God, the Founder of Deeper Life, attended May Flower? Does that not tell us the kind of Leaders (with great Discipline) that were brought up at the school? You all can see how Kumuyi lives compared to our many “modern” prosperity preachers, especially that bald-headed, jet-buying, pastorpreneur – the grandmaster of all con-pastors. Money doesn’t buy class.
Mama, your selfless lifestyle tells a lot about you, and you will always live in our hearts. RIP Mama Sheila!

Rest In Peace Late Madam Shiela Solarin, we would all miss you. Wow< i feel like the glory of Mayflower is fast diminishing especially with the nes of Madam's death. I wonder what will become of this great school in the next 5 - 10 years. it petrify's me.
Anyway, The Solarin's have written their names in the Sands of time. On this note, i remember.

LINCOLN'S GETTYSBURG ADDRESS.

Four scores and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men were created equal. But now we are engaged in a great civil war; testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated shall long endure, we are met on a great battle field of that war, we have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who gave thier lives that this nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this, but in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men both living and dead who have struggled it here far above our power to add or detract.

The world will little note nor long remember what we have done here, it is for us the living rather to be dedicated to the unfinished task remaining before us and it is from these honoured dead we take an increased measure of devotion to that cause which we gave the last measure of devotion and that we here highly resolve that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom and that the government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish but have everlasting life.
AMEN.

This is written somewhere @ the back of our MerryMayflower.
