Death why .... u no see the whack prof. Anger abudlahi collect sharp sharp

RIP Elder

RIP
So who succeeds him?
So he would be buried today according to Islamic rites?
So he did not survive to see Buhari complete his term?
Anyway he will be remembered by the North for being outspoken and always representing their interest.
I remember him for participating in the last 2014 National Conference organised by Goodluck Ebele Jonathan PhD.
I dont know about the South. But the North has a good common voice. Focused and better negotiators. Most times they have the upper hand.
He would have defeated Alhaji Shehu Shagari in the 1976 election under the umbrella of NPN; if not the southerners
Lalasticlala ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Rip
Dust we are. Dust we shall return.

Aww! he died before October 1st. Satan should search him very well before accommodating him in HELL.

This is a great man, lived an exemplary life. A prudent and corrupt free minister and politician.
Well revered and respected across the boundaries.
I wish those Igbos castigating and insulting him even after dead can achieve half of his achievements and years lived

Good for him

They can't live forever.

Nobody lives forever..

Elder's forum


Bunch of useless leeches sucking the blood of young successful productive youths

Sorry.

Elders that have added no value to the lives of Nigerians

Abusing their position for selfish gains


A generation of lazy lots with nothing tangible to offer the the Nigerian youth.

All in the name of being elders to create trouble and crisis just to be relevant


A generation of useless old men that has never invented or discovered anything like that can add value to the Nigerian society compared to their counterparts in foreign countries

A generation of old men who use wealth, power and education to oppress and deprive society of value


A generation of old men who lack ideas, innovation and creative mentality


A wasted generation of old men

A generation of old men whose youth are never proud of, manipulative in intentions.

Ok
