Lloydfolarin: I just wish one thing. For you to come across this post in a few years time and be humbled about how foolish you were and how wiser you must have been by them. I've not seen any Igbo person online that supported the erecting of the statue of Zuma in Imo state. Probably you just want likes from those with same reasoning pattern like yours. Igbos ain't equal to IPOB, so If you have any grievance over IPOB deal with that before spilling hate, rubbish to a tribe without wisdom. |

LexngtonSteele: Do you find comprehension as a problem? He said corruption level back then is way lesser than what we have now and you indirectly agreed with him but didn't know. You made mention of just one person, can you count the number of folks that have stolen in this regime alone letalone previous ones ? |

In 1984, Muhammadu Buhari's government, of which Kuti was a vocal opponent, jailed him on a charge of currency smuggling which Amnesty International and others denounced as politically motivated. Amnesty designated him a prisoner of conscience , and his case was also taken up by other human rights groups. After 20 months, he was released from prison by General Ibrahim Babangida . |

SMH[/quote On 3 August 1997, Olikoye Ransome-Kuti , already a prominent AIDS activist and former Minister of Health , announced his younger brother's death a day earlier from complications related to AIDS .

NwaAmaikpe:It's because of people like u that the black race is what it is today, always looking at the negative side of people as if u urself are perfect, we all have good and bad side we are struggling with. Fela fought for the people and went through hell. If we had more people like him this country would be far more better. Go read well about MJ, mandela, they had their bad sides, afterall we are all humans. |

NwaAmaikpe:You speak like you have no shortcomings. This man was a prophet of all times. Listen to what he sang in the 80s, it feels like he just walked out of the studio a few minutes ago to capture the ills of our society. Kindly respect the dead and their legacy so that same may be accorded to you while living and gone. |
