It was done to spite the Abacha junta because everyone suspected him of being behind Kudi's death.

I remember when this street was renamed. Abacha retaliated by renaming the street where the US embassy is located "Louis Farrakhan" Crescent. grin

This is no big deal. There is a community named 'Oyotunji' in South Carolina.

]Oh wow...poster where on earth is this particular place this us PHOTO SHOP pls don't fall for this. I work in east Manhattan on 45 st and I never came across Kudirat abiola on 44st in downtown east Manhattan. Pls let us confirm before we start to believe in Photoshop. If u have access to GPS kindly check the address or check ur Google map. Now I have begin to believe that 70% of the news and stories on this site are fake and photoshop.

It should be noted that precisely 3 years ago on this same great Forum, my friend frantically tried to pacify and appease igbos who were generally known to be nefariously abusive towards the wonderfully accommodating and ever focused Yorubas. Rather than change, just like devil that can never be appeased they grew worse to the extent that some gullible Yorubas stated seeing themselves as low self-esteemed beings. Thank GOD for our American based colleagues that called our attention to the effect of this evil, Yorubas Youths came together world-wide on Internet. We discussed and discovered that by an immeasurably far height and advancement (mentally, Spiritually, financially, technologically) Yorubas are better and by far greater than igbos.

This is so true!

mainman7:
Nice one. Yorubas setting the pace for other Africans since 6500BC. Some senseless chest-beating flat-heads Nyamiri dunces who deceitfully claim to be the wisest and most enterprising yet can't boast of Great industrialists and Mega-Billionaires like Femi Otedola, Mike Adenuga, Mrs Alakija (The current richest Black Woman in the world) and many more Yorubas. Even the North has the likes of Dangote etc... Next time you senseless nyamiri mofos see a Yoruba, duff your hats and bow! Else... u know where u will end up!

Best when you make a mistake, you accept your mistakes. No body is a know it all.
Worse when you make a mistake but try to cover it up with a lie.

There's a street named Lagos in Etobicoke (GTA Toronto) Ontario, Canada. It's very close to Islington or Kipling and Elmhurst area.

With background sounds of heavy traffic, You're hearing the intersection of 44th Street and 2nd Avenue in New York City.
The northeast corner of this intersection is significant to the Nigeria story for two reasons. First, it is the site of Nigeria's mission to the United Nations and their New York consulate. Second, the New York City Council has renamed this corner Kudirat Abiola Corner.

To understand the significance of Kudirat Abiola we have to go back to 1993, the last time Nigeria experimented with democracy. Kudirat's husband, Moshood Abioloa, ran for President and he won but the election was annuled by the then head of state Ibrahim Babangida
