I was expecting to see some nostalgic comments here,so far all i've seen is boobs and coochie coochie! Smh! There is more to a woman than her boob size and hips.
Anyway,i must say i miss these talented actors. This was when nollywood was in its full glory...not trying to undermine the new nollywood industry but these veteran actors were exceptional and professional.
They always brought something different to each role and movie they appeared in. When Pete Edochie, RMD, Segun Arinze Zack Orji etc were absent in a movie,one would immediately feel the impact of their absence.
How many of these new actors can we tag 'irreplaceable'?
How many of them bring unique skills and talents to our screens?
I go back to watch some old nollywood movies periodically and have discovered that those veteran actors were more passionate about their jobs than this new nollywood actors.
They might not have been paid much but they knew how to entertain.
Some of these new actors come across as people that want to be famous in a blink of the eye. There is so much emphasis on you can speak English with a foreign accent, money and instagram fame as against professionalism and talent.

That's very wrong. When a woman catches a vagina infection like Candidiasis,it doesn't necessarily mean it came from sex.
Poor hygeine and dirty toilets are big causative factors. What can you say about a 10yr old virgin girl with such infections?
A patient is asked if she is practising unwholesome sex activities,where that is not the case, then it is blamed on dirty toilets and very poor hygeine.
Yes, certain infections are passed through unclean toilets.
Another factor that lead to infection is through the use of non cotton pants or wet pants.
It is advised that women wear cotton undies because cotton dries quickly and prevents the accumulation of mucus that can introduce germs to the vigirna.
Women are also advised to stop sticking dirty fingers inside their virgina. Wash your hands before and after changing your pads.
Change your pads immediately it's soiled/full.
Make sure your undies are 100percent dry before using it and make sure they are spread under the sun or in a ventilated area.
For the sexually active ones, encourage your man to wash his hands and trim his nails regularly,to avoid introducing foreign elements inside you.
There are a couple of things that cause infections in women, Op should stop giving stuppid lectures to the public!

I'll rather stay with the first definition.
Whites,as can be seen from numerous examples are extremely depraved,wicked and deprived of conscience. They are the only race that have found ways of manipulating and cheating other races and always justify it when they are confronted.

Unfortunately i couldn't apply for any of the vacancies. I tried applying through multiple phones and PC all to no avail. Some people mentioned Google chrome,i tried it but couldn't pull through.

I'm even surprised you've tagged this argument a struggle. You already knew the issue I had with you but instead of you to accept or rephrase your assertion, you are still looking for a way to Panel-beat the garbages you've earlier written and thereby looking for a way to meander yourself in other to score some cheap points.

Look; in football you can compare Ronaldo with Messi but you would begin to have issues when you start comparing either of them with players like Hazard or Ozil. It does not change the fact that hazard and ozil are good players but comparing them Messi/Ronaldo, and again proceeding by putting them at the fore-front is delusional and a strong party to mediocrity.

I don't have much to say again than to also hammer it into your eardrum that placing zik at the forefront of pan-africanism is self delusion and should be treated like a cancer, because what you simply did is to cut-off the pioneer and founding fathers of pan-africanism, most especially people that popularize the movement both in America and Africa.

And again there is no need of going back to what the word "forefront" means coz I've used several dictionary translations to open your eyes to your fallacy but you just decided to get struck with your mediocrity.

And Lastly: you once said Yorubas ran the economy down, once again I challenge you to show me the yorubas that ran the economy down after civil war. Goodluck.

Blah Blah Blah! Are you still on this? Coming back to reply long after a thread is gone.
You can't untie Azikiwe's shoe,let alone talk about his position as a Pan Africanist. This is not a comparison subject for God's sake eventhough the true intention of hijacking this thread is very transparent.
He was at the forefront,go pick a dictionary and find different meanings of that word. It's very obvious that you've accessed different ways of establishing your useless views on Azikiwe which is insignificant anyway.
I'm happy this argument ends here because the world recognizes Azikiwe in this capacity. Nobody cares what you think of him.
It's very obvious this is a Yoruba vs Igbo issue. Can you spare me that bullshiit?
How many times do i have to tell you that I NEVER MENTIONED THAT YORUBAS RAN DOWN THE ECONOMY.
What sort of rubbish is this? Aren't you daft?
Ask me that question one more time!
Azikiwe was at the forefront and a highly respected African Pan Nationalist. Deal with it!
Cry me a river when you are done writing up another nonesense.

Pragya though. All Abhi wants to do is to look into those eyes. Chemistry be popping eventhough Pragya is drunk. I can't wait for the truth to be revealed joor.

Am i the only one in love with Tuntun Singh? That man is everything. I don't really fancy older men but he is too much.
Everywoman deserves a man like Pintu,that guy is all about making his wife happy.
Namaste.

Whoever is behind this Chino moniker should be utterly ashamed of himself. Isn't it bad enough that Nigerians are making fun of Igbos? Why must you engage in this sort of nonesense?

Woah! As usual, the other Nigerians think they have a say so in Igbo affairs. There is no African ethnic group that doesn't have such problems and internal rancour,the problem is that Igbos have not found a way to overcome such challenges for political unity.
So lashing out and mocking igbos is absolutely unnecessary.
On the other hand, what has OUK done for Igbos? What did he do for Abia State? He is a rogue and doesn't deserve any sort of immunity and support from igbos.
No reasonable Nigerian should pay him any attention.

DaPuncline:

Alright. So what's your take about your folks that said: "Yorubas were backward academically and were not good enough to handle top positions before independence".

And again, I'm still waiting for the names of Yoruba people that ran the economy down after independence. HAPPY SUNDAY.

Lol,are you still on this struggle to have the last word on an already concluded topic? I can see you came back many days after i dropped my comments to write your lenghty piece of trash. The stuggle is real. This whole gimmick hidden behind deeper issues is absolutely unnecessary as far as Azikiwe is concerned.
First and foremost,i didn't make a statement about your yoruba people being unqualified before independence,that's really none of business. Why the constant reference to that? Did you not say you are not here to debate yoruba vs igbo?
Why are you still Butthurt by that issue?
I have no intention to play the Tribal card unlike you.
As for Nnamdi Azikiwe, your convictions and prolonged arguments about his position and membership of the Pan African Community is honestly a furtile attempt at debating the legacies of a leader well credited and acknowledged by his contemporaries.
Lastly,i will advice you to get a grip on yourself especially along tribal lines because a reasonable individual sees the underlying factor and motivation behind this whole debate.
At the end of the day,there is no reasonable basis for this sort of argument. It doesn't change anything beyond this platform.
Last but not the least,go get your self an English Thesaurus and find words that are synonyms that could be placed alongside one another. Your inability to properly define words in a given context is glaring and absolutely disappointing.
When defining someone's legacy and position,one doesn't need to attach other individuals to validate the strenght,position and influence of the principal subject.
Azikiwe has everything it takes to stand as a sole topic without putting him on a weighing scale.
This is not a Comparative study although you have made it one, driven by irrational bigotry and absurdity.
Good luck on you debating on Nairaland over what you have no control of.
Nnamdi Azikiwe was a Major Pan African Nationalist at the forefront.

Some things are no longer relevant.

zeeworldfreak1:
and his smile..goodness me...they compliment each other like maddd...classic pair...bad boy/good girl...never goes outta style...he won't realize the love until he finds himself stuck in the quick sand of pragya's love ..he say na hypnotism...

Yes o, Abhi has been noticing Pragya a long time ago. He for don fall since but Tanu and Aaliya are bad influences. I feel sorry for P babe,they want to pull another Aarti and Yash on us.

Why did they change Aunty Revti? She was too good. That phone she broke and danced on yesterday was something else,lol. I laugh whenever i remember it.

Hmmm,Pragya and Abhi.
Abhi is falling in love,he doesn't know it yet. I'm loving it.
Of all the zeeworld couples i've seen,i think they really compliment each other.
That Abhi's lips. Gush! That's all i look at whenever the camera is focused on him.

There is really no point abusing women that would answer No to this question. I take a huge exception to that. It is a man's duty to provide for his family and a salary of 50k demands exceptional financial mangement skills.
Everyone has a class and naturally one would go for who fits his/her class. It is a nobody's fault you are unable to find a wife with just 50 thousand naira salary. The best bet is to look for a girl that would be able to manage with you under such tight budget.
The problem with men is that they see good things and think they can easily get her to fit into his income. And when that girl is unable to fit in,he lables her a Gold digger.
That's a big mistake.
Why not go ahead and look for someone you can afford.
On a normal situation, 50k can hold a family down depending on the number of people in that family. However,you will discover that it wouldn't be enough as the children start dropping. So how do you make ends meet.
Under this current economy,i wouldn't advise a girl to go for it, or a man to think towards that,when there is no support income.
How much is a bag of Rice?
Can you cater for a family with just 50k?
These are good questions to ask.

DaPuncline:

I can see you've not been following my post, there was no where I said Zik can not be regarded as a pan-african. I even said he's one of the best African Nationalist. Please stop twisting my words. I was simply against the dude that placed Zik at the forefront of Pan-Africansim. I even showed him a Pan-African link and Zik's name, quotes, philosophies were not mentioned there. Please don't misquote me.

lol,you still can't situate forefront properly? I didn't even mention Greatest and Best and you rant in this manner?
If you can define words reasonably and put them in a proper context,then you will discover that your arguments has been furtile.
Secondly, Wikipedia is not the only site and link existing on the net therefore cannot be used to justify a daft argument when there are other worthy sites around. The page only carried limited information about an organization,did it list other important ideologies,events,conferences,personalities and struggles associated with this movements?
Prior to the dates in that site, Pan African movements had already taken shape and were held in other places and involved people not found on that limited list.
I can list big names that are not on that list that should have been added. The names that were ''included'' doesn't mean they are the only people. The list only include some people associated with the movement of which Azikiwe and others were big advocates of the movement.
Guy,that list is just a list and not all encompassing.
No one can understand your obsession and effort channeled towards slighting Azikiwe's pan African legacy.
Only a sstupor will say that a Polar bear is not an animal because he didn't see it in a particular textbook.
He stands tall when the rooster is called and reviewed.
Good riddance.

felicitywe:
ur submisson is so poor.Bc Zik was nt brutalized therefore u cannt regard him as a pan African.Well do a research on Zikist Movement&its activities in Nig independence.Also ask of Comrade Raji Abdallah frm Egbiraland.The fact dat he accepted didnt diminish his prowess,contributn as a Pan African.Pls read history n learn 2 be objective bc no matter hw far u go wt lies someone will debunk it one day.

Honestly,the lame idea that someone cannot be regarded as a leader if he was not brutalized or murdered is extremely illogical, ridiculous and plain sstupid.
That's the average mentality of a tribal bigot.

DaPuncline:

You said Azikwe is at the fore front of Pan-Africanism but I gave you a link to Pan-Africanism but his name, quotes, philosophy were not mentioned. Here is the link again:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan-Africanism

We could see how the likes of Nkrumah, Kenyatta, Lumumba stood out outstandingly!

You also place zik at the forefront without including any african leader alongside! But you just twisted your now word by saying Zik stood boldly in-between. You've already said he's at the forefront. Being at the forefront simply means: "to be leading" which to you implies other african leaders are not really known or some inconsequential! Go to a remote place in botswana and I tell you most of them would barely know who zik is, but mention people like Mandela, Gaddafi, Kenyatta etc. and note their reactions. Once again zik was an influential leader but his influence can still not be compared with other african leaders.

Why would a reasonable person repeatedly use one Event and site to justify his worthless convictions?
There are numerous platforms where Azikiwe is mentioned alongside others as big and notable symbols/figure on Pan African Nationalism.
I gave a good example of how Azikiwe mentored Nkrumah who later ran off with Azikiwe's Pan Africanism beliefs and enforced them in Ghana.
I gave an example of the more Popular Pan African Summit in London where Azikiwe was a major participants alongside the names you keep mentioning.
It will be a gread dis service to Africa to elevate those names and not talk about the legacy of the only Nigerian Pan Africanist whose beliefs were adhered to and supported by his contemporaries.
When i say forefront, i don't mean the Greatest. I see that you have big peoblems with WordDefinitions.
Forefront here mean noticeable/important/inspirational and of course he was a notable Pan African Nationalist mentioned along side the other folks.
Inbetween- in a literal manner mean beside two extremities.
In this case,it means written and placed alongside other Symbols of the Pan African Movement.
His Ziks movement actively promoted his Five principle for African Liberation and United states of Africa which is still consulted by modern Pan African Nationalist.
You have nothing to back up the statement that nobody knows Azikiwe beyond here.
For your information, Azikiwe of Nigeria and Zik of Africa is a popular figure in African and Nigerian history. Go and tell that one to the Popular Azikiwe avenue in Tanzania.
You need Empirical evidence to support that useless statement.
After all said and done, Azikiwe remainds an important personality in Nigerian's fight for indepedence and a Pan African Nationalist. EOD.

DaPuncline:

Would you have known the likes of Marcus Gavey, MLK, Lisa Park, Harriet Tubman etc If lives were rosy for the AA then ? And mind you it was not an African mentality: the likes of Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Che Guevera were not left out. So that was why I said Zik was a little bit lucky he did not faced stiff and brutal opposition those men encountered. Such experience most times brings out the real you and let people know where you stand, of course we all know some leaders that fail and falter on their course due to not getting things on a platter of gold. The closet experience zik would have had was the 1996 coup whereas he suspiciously traveled out a day to the event.

At the end of the day,you are blaming Azikiwe for not having a bloody encounter and subsequently making a mockery of his anti colonial struggle and Pan African ideologies.
First and Foremost, Nigeria's fight for independence was handled by intelligent men in such a way that there was no need for blood baths. A true leader is not who can shed blood and initiate riots and violent demonstrations,a true leader is he who is charismatic enough to initiate people to a course and put all his resources and abilities to actualize the agenda of his course.
A leader can manifest in several ways,there is nothing suggests that a true leader must be brutalized. If he is brutalized or killed along the way. Then it is a prize he paid for what he believed in.
So when he is not killed or beaten,do we now make light of his struggles and leadership qualities?
Your point is extremely one sided,ilogical and tinted with ethnic sensitivity .
Away from this thread,there is no one that rubbishes and limit Azikiwe's legacy to fit into his idea of what a leader should be.
A good question to take away from all this is, if Azikiwe was yoruba will i be fighting to belittle his legacy?
On my side,i have been able to talk about him based on the factual evidences and acknowledgements out there. Good luck on trying to fight international consensus.

DaPuncline:

Even though he was lucky Nigeria's agitation for independence was not bloody but he still went ahead to receive a greek gift from the white men in order to become a ceremonial Gov-General and you told us to blame the whites for deceiving him. Can't he say NO! A real leader must learn how to say NO even if what is being cajoled of looks attractive. And an ideal Pan-Africanist don't receive greek gift from the whites, ask The Great Patrice Lumumba.

Lol,it is not a greek gift if the colonialist had already planned what to do with their colony.
Whether he was a Gov Gen or not,he had already fought and secured independence for his Nation and that is credited to him.
Like i keep saying,this silly argument ends on nairaland. The legacy of Azikiwe is out there for the world to see and it has been acknowledged several times without your sanction or permissions.

DaPuncline:

The Genesis of this argument was when you and your folks said there were no qualified yoruba academician eligible to be appointed U.I and UNILAG VC respectively which means SW had no qualified professor in 1960 when dike became U.I VC and 1962 when Njoku became UNILAG VC. and I also told you their appointments was a result of Zik's influence coz zik was the Gov-General btw 1960-1966. I also relate it to how GEJ appointed new VCs to his newly established fed. Uni.

Now look at it this way: How come a yoruba man (Prof. Oladele Ajose) in 1962 became 1st O.A.U VC ? It was because O.A.U was established by Action Group in western region and Zik and Balewa had no power over O.A.U.

In the case of UNILAG, When Prof. Eni Njoku wanted to serve another term, he was fiercely resisted by the school management composed of Yoruba Professors, their protest led to the emergence of Prof. Saburi Biobaku as the VC. The west had more than enough intellectual properties but Zik knew what he was doing when he turned down Awo's alliance and merged with Balewa because the north were really backward academically which gave him a clear chance to populate the civil service with his kinsmen.

The Notable Harold Smith also said zik wanted to catch up with the west academically at all cost, even Achebe affirmed that the west had an early start academically before independence.

Again you've dribble yourself away from my question but I will still ask you again: Give me the names of yorubas that ran nigeria economy down after the war. I'm waiting.

You seem to be mixing me up with of other participants on this thread. When you are extremely tribally motivated and sensitive you will continue to draw inferences and find it difficult to differenciate between your co debaters.
There are people that submitted that Yorubas were backward academically and were not good enough to handle top positions before independence. I didn't write such. Pls can you refer back to the previous threads and find those people?
My argument has always been that Igbos got their University quite late but they sought for proper education beyond Igboland which led them beyond Nigeria and Africa.
Secondly, Western civilization came quite late to Igbos but they made the best of it when it came and caught up with others prior independence. Before independence, a large number of Igbos were all over Nigeria working with the colonial aministrations.
Every appointment and employments back in the days were largely on merit. So why is it offfensive that an Igbo man was found worthy to be a VC of a Western institution? That Tribal Game is too boring.
Besides, it's slave mentality to debate who acquired Western civilization first. The main argument should be how much impact did it make in your region.
Do not mix me up with people's opinions if you have to respond to my post.

BornStunner1:




FACTS ABOUT THE YORUBAS AKA AFONJAS
( 1 ) . Their story of
kingship began with Edo
prince and the Benin
recorded History .
( 2 ) . Ayayi crawder said,
little were know about
yoruba existence,
meaning they were not
part of Nigeria of today
boarder or were in small
settlement close to
dahomy. yoruba are half
muslims and those with
African traditions copied or got them from Benin
civilization . I doubt if they not immigrants from dahomy
mix with Benins or other fulani- hausa from Niger
. Bishop Samuel Adjayi Crowther (c . 1809 – 31
December 1891 ) Was the first African Anglican bishop
in Nigeria . Born in Osogun (in today's Iseyin Local
Government, Oyo State , Nigeria ) . His grandson was
Herbert Macaulay
( 3 ) . Yoruba have dublicity of kingship with the process
highly politized to being traditional . A system they try
copy from Benin but can 't get it real like the Benin
Kingdom. Edo Obaship is one of the most revered
institutions in the world because of the way it has
sustained its awesome prestige with strict and
meticulous attention to ancient traditions of valour ,
discipline and integrity . Edo chieftaincy titles cannot be
bought or conferred on non- indigenes or frivolously .
Every Edo chief performs a peculiarly sacred duty
and responsibility to the people of Edo. It does not make
sense , therefore , to think that a people who would not
and have never conferred their chieftaincy titles on non-
indigenes, would voluntarily invite , accept, or surrender
to non- indigenes as their kings . Due to celestial
origins , the Edo monarch cannot eat out and cannot be
diverted from full time palace duties to hustle
for contracts .
( 4 ) . Most of today
yoruba religion are
Benin Origin , Olokun ,
Ogun , Iha oguega (ifa ) ,
oronmila, Esago
(shango ) , Ayelala etc .
Many Benin traditions
and spirituality are
stillfully documented by
yorubas in high places
as YORUBA ? (Never mind the Edo man ' s christian
mindset quickly dening Edo have niothing to do with
African traditional religion , agreeing they are foriegn to
Edoland . . . LIE ) .
Although the Great Edo ( Benin ) Kingdom were not major
participants in the trans- Atlantic slave trade , because
the Obas (Kings ) believed that their subjects were too
valuable to sell away , and their noblemen had need of
war captives on their own farms , the influence of Edo
religion and medicine has still been substantial upon
the people of the Americas .
According to Mason (1996 ) , it has been widely
accepted that Olokun ( god of the sea ) worship
originated with the Edo and spread to the Yoruba ( p. 2) .
In fact, the most prominent part of Edo cultural
traditions that has made its mark in the New World is
Olokun worship. Olokun (god of the Waters ) worship
originated from Urhonigbe and then became prominent
at Ughoton around the Ethiope ( Olokun) River . The
priesthood and rituals were firmly established at the
time . Some of the possible points of contact happened
early. During the Ogiso Period , trade with the Yoruba
and Igbos was quite extensive. Olokun worship may
have spread to those areas through traders . Prior to the
Oba Period , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa was initiated into
Olokun as a chief Priest while he stayed at Ughoton ,
before his moving westward with his followers to
establish Ilefe ( Ero , 1999 , p . 108- 109) .
Once he arrived , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa brought Edo
traditions to those areas and was a King of his new
community called Ilefe , which could be what yoruba call
IFE. . From Ekaladerhan Izoduwa ’ s loins , the Yoruba
dynasties may have began. However, it is certain that
Olokun is an Edo divinity whose worship spread to the
outlying Yoruba areas.

Which one is Olokun in Igboland? Do you guys ever think before writing trash?
Igbos don't know what is Olokun and have no relationship with it.
When it comes to aquatic based religion, igbos ascribe it to a female deity. Stop writing nonesense.

DaPuncline:

So you mean Yorubas were not doing well before independence ? Was taking ur argument serious b4 but this one made me believe you've been blinded by bigotry! FYI yorubas were already running big companies b4 independence, companies like Eleganza, Okin Biscuit, Alabukun etc. Infact a yoruba man (I forgot his name) that tym was the first to start automobile importation business in nigeria. Or I guess the Niger Delta were feeding us that tym ?

And why did AZIKIWE wrote Britain to accuse awolowo of treason awolowo wanted to include right to secede in our constitution ? They should not have been plan to include secession if we were not dependent and doing well in our region.

Then you said Yorubas crippled national asset after the war: now I challenge you to provide evidence by listing the names of yorubas that crippled national asset. Remember you've asked for evidence several times and I've given you. Waiting for yours.

Who said Yorubas were not doing well pre independence? Didn't you just write that you are not playing the tribal game. That's incredible.
The earliest submission is that Igbos quite literate before independence and secured a lot of employment with the colonial administration. The earliest public servants irrespective of tribe all got there by merit.
So how did you drag your Yoruba into this? When people want to give kudos to their forerunners you jump in and accuse them of not mentioning your tribe?
Pathetic.

DaPuncline:

Bros you are still dribbling yourself like around maradona. You've repeated what you just wrote here several times. The issue you are having is: Simply because Azikwe is an IGBO MAN his influences, lifestyles, philosophies must no be debatable. Things are not done that way in the world of research; you bring your fact, I bring mine then we debate on it absent tribe and religion! But the problem is an average igbo man's argument is incomplete without incorporating tribe and religion. Did you see me include any yoruba man since the beginning of my argument on Zik even though there were Yorubas that were part of the pan-african struggle.

What I have been trying to tell you since is: it is unacceptable to make Azikwe the greatest african nationalist when we have the likes of Nelson Mandela, Gadaffi, Lumumba, Nkrumah, Kenyatta etc. And I've given you numerous reasons to back it up but you kept playing the tribal game. PEACE

Kindly show me where i called Azikiwe the Greatest African Nationalist?? I've maintained that he was at the forefront of the Pan African Movement as can be seen in his enduring legacies in Africa and participation in the Pan African Movement.
Why are you drawing inferences when i've not written such?
I gave different explanations of Azikiwe's anti colonial legacy and Pan African ideologies that motivated the likes of Nkrumah yet you keep undermining him because he is Igbo and unworthy to be celebrated like his mates.
Irrespective of what you say, where the rest of names are mentioned, Azikiwe always stand boldily inbetween.

Fortunately,you are the one that keep playing the Tribal game. Well,keep playing because Azikiwe is not seeking for your validations. The international community has already credited him.

Bros being a Renown and Seasoned African Nationalist goes beyond attending First Class Universities or the strength of your media house. FFK attended first class universities, is he a renown African Nationalist ? The likes of Nelson Mandela, Gaddafi, Haile Seilassie, Patrice Lumumba, Keneth Kaunda etc. never attended first class universities but africans always regard them and put them at the forefront of African Nationalism. There are things those aforementioned men experienced that zik never took part

Firstly, Zik was lucky never to have experienced thorough and brutal oppression from the colonial masters before achieving his results . Most of the aforementioned men were brutally tortured and dealt with, some even lost their lives in the heat of the struggle, some were imprisoned for a long time, some even were killed after gaining their independence. Someone like Haile Selaisse brutally repelled the italians invasion to colonize Ethiopia and he won. Nkrumah was removed by a coup in conjunction with CIA. Lumumba was assassinated by the Americans and Belgians in which they later apologised. What it means is that Zik strength and Courage was never tested in the face of oppression and brutality! Nobody knows whether he would have succumbed to the whites.

Secondly, Zik never ruled his country though he forged an alliance with Balewa a Grade II teacher to become the Gov-General which was a ceremonial Post.

The Legendary Harold Smith said:

"We tricked Azikwe into accepting to
be president having known that Balewa will
be the main man with power. Awolowo has
to go to jail to cripple his genius plans for a
greater Nigeria".

It means Zik was never seen as the Number one figure in his country not to talk of Africa as a whole!

In conclusion zik is one of the best African nationalist but when it comes to greatness he has people at his front.

If your definition of a seasoned Nationalist mean Brutalized,beaten and scorned then you got it all wrong.

A seasoned Nationalist is an inspiring figure that can harness what his has for actualization of a course. If it turns bloody along the way then the colonialist are to blame.
People agitating for their right musr not be brutalized to be heroes,that is an African mentality.

In conclusion zik is one of the best African nationalist but when it comes to greatness he has people at his front.

I don't understand why you keep comparing countries that had to shed a little blood with Nigeria??
Nigeria's agitations for independence was not as torturous and painful like what was found in other African countries.
Does an individual have to wounded,shed blood and beaten to stupor before he will be hailed a hero?
Violence is out of the equation if one can use his brain and pen to motivate people with the right Political thought and beliefs,and that is what Azikiwe did.
He didn't have to fall back on violence and demonstrations to call people to action. Even at that, Azikiwe was imprisoned for Months by the colonialist for inspiring Sedition and Anti colonial struggles.
His published works got into the right hands and they acted accordingly.
There is no point undermining who has already been credited as far as Nigerian and African Nationalism is concerned. Your argument against it is already inconsequential as you write.

If he was deceived then blame it on the white man who knew it was best to leave power in the hands of Northern Nigerian to serve an ulterior motive.
