Fela Kuti,Sowore And Nnamdi Kanu Only Nigerians Brave To Confront Buhari Tyranny by Nobody: 5:22pm On Aug 25, 2019 |
100 years from now Omoyele Sowore,Nnamdi Kanu and Fela Kuti will be remembered in Nigeria history books when the country is eventually liberated from the fantastically corrupt politicians like Buhari that have been ruling the country and kept it a massive shithole.They fought for the docile masses used to suffering and smiling to try and raise their consciousness to start questioning their oppressors,despite coming from comfortable backgrounds. Fela Kuti:The first Nigerian to move against the tyrant Buhari was Fela Kuti who came from a prominent and wealthy background. He spoke against Buhari's tyrannical rule in the 80's and was brutalised and jailed by the junta at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aafjSUv6s7E Omoyele Sowore: Based in New York, United States and through poor judgement relocated to Nigeria and used his platform Saharareporters to help launder Buhari's image and held a series of interviews with him leading up to the 2015 election that helped him win the Presidency. He later realized his folly when he realized Buhari was no different than his fantastically corrupt predecessors and a power monger who tolerated no dissent. Realizing his error, he tried to backtrack and launched a peaceful protest, which resulted in his incarceration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7TvpL3e3ls Nnamdi Kanu:The only Nigerian now left that has been vocal against Buhari's human rights abuses is Nnamdi Kanu. He left is base in London,England to face Buhari head on before an attempt was made on his life and he had to flee to Israel,before he relocated back to his base London,England. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFRwanNuGH0 2 Likes 1 Share |

Putting Kanu on that list as Fela is an utter disrespect to the word 'activism' Was there any time Fela ran from this country? Has Kanu even suffered a pinch of what Fela went through? Fela was an activist during military era, he never fled the military. Kanu tried to speak for his people only during a democratic era and where is he today? Acting porn somewhere in London As for sowore...... He failed himself from the start. Choosing the word 'revolution' was a betrayal of his knowledge of the law. I wish him best of luck in his next 25 days in detention 6 Likes 3 Shares |

ChiefkeefGB4:Really? Have u ever gone through Fela's history? How can u place Kanu in the same league as Fela? While Kanu is only trying to gain a country for Igbo which I believe he has his ulterior motive, to be deified like Mandela, Fela on the other hand fought not for his tribe only but the emancipation of Africa as a continent. Please kindly place Kanu and Sowore on the same league as 2face, charlyboy and maybe ruggedman 3 Likes |

Officialgarri:Fela is in a league of his own and legend around the world.However,when it comes to bravery you have to give it to Omoyele Sowore and Nnamdi Kanu who left their bases in New York and London respectively to go back to confront the oppressors who don't have any concepts of human rights. 5 Likes |

Officialgarri: Ibos find it hard to accept that Kanu is a coward. They try to rewrite his history. The same method they used to bring an uncivilized Ibo society into prominence by inserting it into any historical accounts where Yoruba was featured.....and through that attachment gradually and fraudulently brought Ibo into historical perspective and prominence. Can you mention of any civilization of Ibo beside the oft repeated Igbo ukwu? No. Everytime Ife art is recalled you see Igbo ukwu. What is Igbo ukwu? A single jar of bronze. We are not even sure it belonged to igbo since no other work of art is found or neither is any knowledge about the bronze jar. Yet this ukwu is called a civilization. With Kanu they are trying to make him a hero...in the likes of Fela. So they attach his mention with honorable and brave Yoruba social activists. Yoruba is Ibo's god! Without us they are nobody. How can a coward be a hero? But this is Ibo, it is not impossible for a coward to be hero in alaibo. Ojukwu is good example. ....even criminals wanted by fbi are heroes in Iboland. Nwabufor said in his article, the Igbo crime culture, "an Iboman was guillotined to death in Asia for drug crimes, back in village he was eulogized as an hero". Imagine! Coward Kwenu! Kwenu! Kwenu!!! I exepect mods to soon ban me under pretext of spambot. Theyve been doing that lately in response to reports about me. I dont violate rule so i cant be bannsd...but they censor me with spambot. Ive learned to just wait out its expiration. 2 Likes |

MetaPhysical:Nigerians are risking their lives through the Sahara Desert and Mediterrean Sea to escape the shithole created by Buhari and his fantastically corrupt gang to get to London,England. Nnamdi Kanu left the comfort and security of that environment where he is guaranteed freedom of speech and right to protest to return to Nigeria. And he was jailed upon his return and incarcerated and an attempt made on his life. There is a fine line between bravery and foolishness. If he comes back, they will surely finish him off this time. 5 Likes

Remove that fraudster kanu from the list. First, he is a coward who fled from a democratic president. Second, he could only unite miscreants with hate campaign against other ethnics or anybody who opposes his ideology. Third, he has no known means of livelihood. Finally, he has benefited massively from peddling fraudulent items such as flag, passport, currency. He is even taxing gullible people to fund his opulent lifestyle. In short he is an opportunist who has found suckers to milk dry. 1 Like |

Ikengawo:No one can beat Fela when it comes to activism. The soldiers threw Fela’s 78-year-old mother, Funmilayo Anikulapo-Kuti, out of a second-floor window and burned Kalakuta to the ground. His mother would later die of her injuries, and he was still unperturbed. He suffered so much brutalisation at the hands of the military regime. 1 Like

Yoruba people are jealous of Kanu so they have evoked the spirit of Fela. This is your problem. You wont do as Fela but when its time to use him to soothe your weak ego you awaken with e-activism. I will be looking to see who on this post supported Buhari Obasanjo or Tinubu. Liars 4 Likes |

Ikengawo:You have to realise most of the youths who voted for Buhari were not born during his tyrannical rule in the 80's when he brutalised Fela Kuti. Most of us fell for the propaganda by the media about how Buhari was a born again democrat who was going to fight 'kwarapion'. We didn't know he was a wolf he sheeps clothing who was going to be more corrupt and brutal than Abacha. |

Officialgarri: Damn right bro. Sowore is just an egotistic and vainglorious individual who is not committed to anything other than what he wants and how he can get it asap - never mind who (Nigerians) or what (our democracy) is harmed in the process. Nigerians don't appreciate that what he did is not seen elsewhere. You don't just lose a Political election to then decide you no longer wish to endure with the same political order you sought to lead few months earlier. Otherwise, why did Hilary not lead a 'revolution' against Trump after she lost? Why is it not happening anywhere in the world for those that have committed to be democratic politicians to then throw their toy out of the pram when they lose election to begin seeking anarchy against the winner? If you want to be a fighter for the oppressed commit to that as Fela did and stay away from politics. If you want to be a politician commit to that and come back stronger to fight another day when you lose. As for Kanu, the less said about that hate-monger and scammer the better. As you opined, Fela is the only name on that list genuinely and selflessly committed to fighting for the best interest of Nigerians. |
