Ladi Dosei Kwali (1925-1984).

Born in Kwali village in Gwari, a Nothern region of Nigeria (FCT), until her death was a female potter because pottery was an indigenous female tradition in Kwali.

She received numerous awards which includes:

MBE: Member of the order of the British Empire (1962)

Honorary degree by ABU Zaria (1977)

NNOM: Nigerian National order of Merit Award (1980)

OON: Order of the Niger (1981)

Also a street is named after her in Abuja: Ladi Kwali road;

Also, Sheraton Hotel names their convention center after her.

That's when value, integrity, hard work and moral values were being rewarded. How did we get here?

How can someone do so well like this and I will not honour her? I don't care which tribe you come from, neither North nor South. When you do nature well, the nature will reference you.

She is a product of self discipline and hard work. She has to be honored. I have researched about her before. She is a nice woman. Life is an (otp) one time offer. Use it well and the universe will reference you.

Nice response.

It's people like him that bring division to Nigeria. Very soon, they'll question why is Awolow Obafeni's image on ₦100 note.

Not everybody can be recognized. Not just possible

What about paying Akinkunmi that designed the National Flag?
What about this Ebola woman Ameyo
We have many people in Nigeria
