This and this woman's other political activities is what this woman should be known for, not being the first Nigerian woman to drive a car. We put too much stock in the wrong things in this country.

Bros even the Americans still talk of the first woman to do this and that. Even my mama nova yet drive a car so kudos to this woman nor bros.

There's a difference between a "PROTEST" and a "RIOT". Your Aba women were thugs rioting and looting other people's stores in the market. *typical though* I'm sure this evolved into armed robbery in their children later on.

Kuti led a peaceful protest which achieved it's objectives without rioting or any form of violence.

That's real activism, it's not a game for the fearful, if only you know the mystical and traditional powers kings wielded in those days, you'll know it's not a kids play for them to be openly challenged such way.

There's one thing about the Kutis and Soyinka's family line, their early access to western education stood them out. Abeokuta is the cradle of education in Nigeria, it's therefore no brainer the personalities they've produced.

That's why we Egbas rock. Abeokuta has produced great people in the past and present, and will produce more in the future. Mayo lori olumo

Parent, direct or indirect has influence on their children

Mrs Eniola Soyinka begot the NOBEL Laureate Wole Soyinka and Mrs Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti begot the legend & activist Fela Kuti

You two should learn to do simple research before spewing rubbish..

Moreover, do not rubbish the contributions of those brave women (Either the Abeokuta or Aba uprisings or the taxation wars that pre-dated those two) with ethnic coloration or bigotry.. They do not deserve that nonsense!
