President Muhammadu Buhari has completed the mausoleum in honour of Nigeria’s first president, Nnamdi Azikiwe, what the Peoples Democratic Party failed to do during all its 16 years in power.

Azikiwe, a foremost Nigerian nationalist died on 11 May 1996, during the Abacha administration. He was 92 years old.

A Mausoleum was to be erected in his honour. A contract was awarded and work started 21 years ago.

In 16 years of the PDP in control of Nigerian affairs, Zik was totally forgotten, his memory consigned to the dustbin of history, by the rapacious regime, even as members helped themselves to the commonwealth and looted the treasury. The mausoleum was abandoned and it became the playground of all kinds of reptiles.

It took the Buhari administration just in three years, to face the project squarely, despite dwindling finances of the country and deliver the mausoleum.

Last Monday, Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Raji Fashola was the mausoleum site in Zik’s famous town of Onitsha, Anambra State to declare the project completed, 21 years after.

Fashola, who came in company of Dr. Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labour and Productivity described the completion of the project as `promise kept’.

“During the build up to 2015 general elections, President Muhammad Buhari made commitment that he would complete Azikiwe’s mausoleum, today Mr President has kept his words and we are happy,” he said.

Fashola said though equipment of the monument was yet to be accomplished, the federal government would before long do the furnishing.

The Minister of Labour and Productivity, Dr Ngige who also spoke, described the completion of the Mausoleum as sign of `Mr President’s open and fair leadership style’.

“As a South East son, I am happy that this project for the memory of our late father and son was finally completed, it is a big honour done to our people by Mr President,” he said.

I say a very big well done to Fashola, Ngige and of course Buhafi.

Thanks for immortalizing Zik despite how previous governments neglected his legacy.

Na Buhari start am? His own is to complete and then make noise.

What's stopping him from starting and completing a project?

What's stopping him from completely fighting Bokoharam?

Zik or no Zik.

Jubril must be sent back to Sudan by next year.

Wetin we gain.....now from dis small edifice..?

South East needs good roads.
South East needs real Federal Presence like Kaduna and Kano
South East needs more powerful sense of belonging..

You cannot relegate a major ethnic group of over 90 Million people spread across the world and within South East to near minority status because of their RELIGION and CULTURES.

EFCC board nominees today readily comes to mind.....Imagine leaving out the SS ans SE. The real owners of Oil Wealth that has been sustaining Nigeria since 1956..

Which kian wickedness be dis...?

So it took the present president 3year to paint it ABI.... I really don't know how you guys think. You saw the former president redesign the project in 2013 and in 2014 it was above 80% so it now take 3year to paint it ABI... Note: in just a year between 2013 to 2014 the project get to 80% completion
