Awolowo was the best president Nigeria never had. Deep inside of us, we all know it.Many of our present leaders and politicians live on his achievements and legacy. Just as many of us....I graduated from the great Obafemi Awolowo University as at the time there was nothing like school fees in Ife and I paid N90 as accommodation fee throughout my studies. Till now OAU remains amongst the best in Nigeria. All with cocoa and agriculture money. what has our present politicians and leaders done with oil money? They cannot even fund our universities anymore. They cannot provide jobs for graduates coming out of those universities.....Appreciate Awolowo please, sentiment apart. 15 Likes |

It is just a waste of time wondering why the country look the way it is. Unity brings prosperity, tribalism is a disgrace to any race. |

china phone don make even small village boys and girls to talk when learned people dey talk oh! this site runs on the spirit of tribalist and insecured yoriba and igbo people. i think the igbo people on the site are the most insecured people online and offline. i also think the yoriba people, although, the second largest tribe after the hausa/fulani...have the most illiterates using mobile phones. i laugh everytime igbos talk about biafra... a nation of traders dont want the benefits of large population when a significant number of it people are traders.hahahahaha. a yoriba nation without nigeria would remain rural in most area, yes, educated minds abound in southwest but, take a look at any western nigeria city and you will agree. i don't no much about awolowo but no nigerian politician is still being spoken about 2 and a half decades after their death like him. ojukwu will be forgotten when ibos get a shot to be president, infact, his building is already being destroyed by ibo people. 4 Likes |

Beyond the SW,he is known as a murderous,conniving,deceitful,backstabbing bastard that he is. I hope yorubas are enjoying the one Nigeria,he help create. 4 Likes |
