Rip Awo

Adiola:
I don't like this man

who cares? He doesn't even know you exist, not with this you very strong mouth and body odours

The best president Nigeria never had

The man that conquered odumegwu omo ojukwu..

The bald headed spoilt brat wanted to control his betters..

Rest on pa Awo

Mynd42:
The guy even looks confused. In his mind he's like: Ewedu and otapiapia which one even tastes better?


Rot in hell.

Uhhhh, do you know where you sef go end up your life? Perhaps, he might welcome you to hell

The Baba of Otapiapia.


He will forever be remembered for his zeal in taking rat poison.

Ipob will say Rata...

rozayx5:


he tried for the SW


in terms of education


aside that. the country he fought to keep together is a disaster , rat poison did the job well


rest in pieces

where's the proof that he took rat poison

So many hate filled posts on this thread.
So sad some people wear bitterness like a badge of honour

raker300:
Oh, you mean the rat poison man?

better and far recognise than the coward. if ojukwu didn't ran that period, who knows his death would have actualize the myth called Biafra


someone who cannot die for his course, is that one a hero?

Oso ndi, owe ndi

Ndiofe:
The Baba of Otapiapia.

VictorVELOCITY:
I remembered him for only been on a #500 note

Awolowo #500 note ke #WhatAFuckery


I can bet my left ball in my scrotum that you can't sing Nigeria's national anthem..

Awo's finest moment

The one from whose household Nigeria returned to for redemption.Osibanjo , Nigeria's Acting President is from his household while all those who spoke Ill of him died violently and he died in his sleep,ripe age even years after marking the biblical three scores and ten years.
Till date,his detractors and their descendants remain in obscurity and political nonentities

veraponpo:

The man that did, in 8 years, what the colonialists could not do in more than 40 years.

He brought civilization to Nigeria through television station, first in Africa.

Free and compulsory elementary education to the old Western and Mid-west Regions

He opened housing and industrial Estates from Ikeja to Ibadan

He ended the civil war through wisdom.

awolowo the first zoogerian to commit suiciide by rat poison.

I remembered him for only been on a #500 note

And you are even wrong about that. Not 500 but 100 Note.

Back to the topic. I remember him in history as the greatest politician of all time in Nigeria. He is the real founding father of modern Nigeria whose achievements can still be felt by the Yoruba's for more than 4 decades.
Little you wonder why all Yoruba politicians wanna be associated with him.
REST ON THE GREAT SAGE PA OBAFEMI AWOLOWO.

Ayam not understanding

Appearing on the 100 Naira note!

awolowo the man who has a good heart, very ambitious leader

you lay a good foundation in which I benefitted.


is it the free education foundation u laid down I want to say? or the recognition of southwestern region having the numerous educated people in all over Nigeria I will talk about? or the foundation of entertainment through the first broadcasting television service in Nigeria you laid


your theory on democracy is still lingering my memory. your social & political personality & recognition is too obvious to deny

you're a hero who die for his course, even adekunle fajuyi did the same. I'm happy Yoruba are brave and not surrounded with clown who disguise and make excuse which made their struggle look like a mere joke

rest on the legend

Obafemi Awolowo would always be remembered by every Nigerian in one way or the other. He was like Steve Jobs, a man of many parts.

A visionary and a selfless leader. He was more Pro-Western Region than every other Nigerian of his time and I think it was due to the tides of the politics of that era. He wanted the best for his people and wouldnt stop at anything.

Had he lived in the era where people worshipped people as 'gods', I am sure we, especially Yoruba people, would have been praying to Awolowo by now. In the name of Awolowo, receive vision!

But overall, he is my hero.
