Many International Media unequivocally referred to Mandela as greatest Son of South Africa. I started to think, who in Nigeria either dead or alive can be regarded as greatest son of this Country?

Dead=Ojukwu. Alive=Me.

Anyone denying its Obasanjo is like denying the existence of the sun.

Abagworo: Anyone denying its Obasanjo is like denying the existence of the sun.

This must be a joke. Where do you now place ZIK and the rest of the people that fought for Nigeria's independence.

King JaJa of Opobo
A true Pan-African who made europe pay tax on stepping on our soil. Who fought against the evil forces of the european and who was seeking for free trade and equal representation . Who had ambassadors to all well known nations promoting africa and fought for it's independence and emancipation.
The then Oba of benin too.

Zik Of Africa!

Bash Ali

Of course this thread is going to be dragged into the gutter. What is the op's objective?

Gani Fawehinmi, the voice of the helpless, the strength of the weak and the fighter for the oppress whether you are Hausa, Ijaw, Itshekiri, Kanuri, Yoruba or even white skinned.

I'm sure the children and women of Odi that survived the massacre in 1999 would call him greatest ever since no one can deny the sun's existence

I do not know about the greatest Nigerian that is dead.

But for those alive; hate him all you can, the most accomplished and recognised Nigerian today is Matthew Olusegun Aremu Okikiolakan Obasanjo.

After which I will say Aliko Dangote

Gen. Obasanjo of ODUDUWA Republic and of the Egba Land.
