RIP Sir

I had to check the O.P's moniker so as to be sure it's not another fake news from rampaging children of hate that Tinubu keeps tormenting

Naptu doesn't peddle fake news...One of the nairalanders I have utmost respect for.

May the soul of Ernest Shonekan rest in peace.

I understand that Queen Elizabeth of England awarded him the CBE ( Commander of the British Empire )

This is one of Britain's highest award.

This did not come as a surprise to us as Chief Ernest Shonekan was once the UAC Boss in Nigeria.

UAC is a British company.

On a softer note, Chief Ernest Shonekan was a peaceful man. He is not the talking type and does not look for trouble.

After General Abacha overthrew his government of three month Chief Ernest Shonekan never created problem or try to criticise the government that overthrew him.

Chief Ernest Shonkan went peacefully back to private business after his government was toppled by the power hungry late General Sani Abacha.

Chief Shonekan was a cool headed gentleman who contributed immensely towards the development of the south west region where he comes from and Nigeria as a country.

We will certainly miss such a gentleman.

May his soul rest in peace.

SHONEKAN DID NOT CREATE ANY TROUBLE OR WAHALA FOR THE ABACHA ADMINISTRATION DESPITE THE DISGRACEFUL WAY HE WAS PUSH OUT OF PUBLIC OFFICE.

Shonekan was a cool headed gentleman.

SHONEKAN WOULD BE REMEMBERED AS A CLASSICAL EXAMPLE OF ...

A POLITICIAN WITHOUT PRINCIPLE OR CONSCIENCE. HE WAS A GRADE "A" OPPORTUNIST.

A FREE, FAIR AND CREDIBLE ELECTION WON BY MKO ABIOLA WAS ILLEGALLY ANNULLED BY IBB. EVEN THE OPPOSITION HAD CONGRATULATED ABIOLA. YET SHONEKAN CONNIVED WITH IBB TO STEAL POWER FOR SHONEKAN

THIS IS HISLEGACY.!

Rest in peace baba.

But what becomes of the water borehole that is meant for a village but was diverted by the HOR member into your house you hardly visit in years to the detriment of the suffering folks?

We all must give an account of our stewardship here on earth at the end of our sojourn.

He was NEVER a politician.

Equally, he was not an opportunist. The position was thrust upon his laps.

Please get a bit of history lesson before you argue further.

Thank you
