She was one of the influential women then who was known for her God's given talent of turning ordinary clay into something of beauty and class, one of the leading force amongst the Gbagyi tribe of the FCT Abuja.
Her legacy lives on...

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.

MBE in 1962 and OON in 1981, 19 years later.

Yet politicians are getting GCON for stealing.

Chill, everybody is the hero of their story, it's about Ladi not Nigerian women Haba, YTK

True, she deserves all the accolades. She made pots without potter's wheel. Everyday individuals that are exceptional should be appreciated, that is how to build society that honours hard work, not the kind we have in Nigeria today where mediocrity reigns.

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.
Now we reward BBM & mis cucuba
