burial that's befits an icon. R.I.P lesson to all politicians who think money and power is everything, money only buys respect when you are alive, once dead respect is earned by the lives you impacted on. |

INNO18: The remains of professor Chinualumogo Albert Achebe was laid @ Alex Ekwueme's Square in Awka today... the Square was filled to the brim with people eager to pay their last respects to the literary Giant. i myself had to skip Maths and Physics lectures just to pay my last respects to the man whose books captivated me since childhood. R.I.P the proof.Only God knows if you are still a First year student of any blinking undergraduate course, but you have to stab your basic Maths and Physics classes (Lectures) to stay as far as 50 meters to pay respect to the Late Prof. that has paid his dues already and gone to the world beyond. I thought there are TV station where you can watch the clues. My Advice for you; Go and face your basics so that you too will become relevant. Goodluck! 2 Likes |

o'boy:You guys should stop being petty and be mature for once. The OP in the first place seem juvenile to me hence it is needless to take him on his assertion which to a very large extent is his views. That said, I am aware that Ogidi is located in Anambra central which happens to be Sen. Ngigi's constituency couple with the fact that he's running for the Nov, 2013 governorship election which Gov. Peter Obi wants to be zoned out to another region hence the massive support and political grandstanding. Things like this don't impress or make any meaning to my likes who understands the politics behind the ovation. Gov. Obi is possibly to busy for such grandstanding. |
