Great! Thanks to the government of Tinubu for this kind gesture. But the question is, why has Nigerian government tarried this long for them to give this man a deserving honour? I hate this kind of recognition after one's demise. May God bless his family sha🙏🙏🙏🙏

my two year old son can do a better job than what he did
..until your son’s work comes to light and it’s too good to be accepted by a country.
It’s not about the colors of the man’s work,it’s about what the work is representing even after he’s gone.

Long overdue but won’t lie , the 30m isn’t enough
I swear! His children or grandchildren should be given either scholarship or FG employment. 30m - family project like renovation, divided by let's say 6 members.
Any amount of money that is not enough to buy a reasonable property may likely become pocket money.

For playing with 2 colors?
waste of donations
Those two colours are BOLD, communicates STRENGTH and PRIDE and above all SIMPLE.

It's not a colour riot and it is fitting for international displays

Sorry PaPa.
I don't like that Color combination.
Your design was poorly orchestrated.
My humble opinion.

Congo 🇨🇩, Cape Verde, Kenya and Seychelles did a fantastic job.

Green doesn't represent strength...Red does,that's why you see it in America,china, England etc flags.

White is not use to represent Pride, Blue is use.

Hate it or love it. The two colors represent your fathers and you. The two colors are still your identity and not your biafra at least for now.

You are restless from someone's national achievements but the least nairalander is yet to know you, your moniker or father, even from constituting a nuisance.

You lack empathy and you are stupid. The same man was left in the mogue close to two years when he died because the FG promised him a state burial not until the children had to bury him after waiting for months. He's a national hero if you don't know. You dumb f**k

30 million naira is actually on an okay threshold, the money was not given to be shared but invested on an existing business or family franchise. Before now they have been surviving without the Government, prudent usage will go a long way for them. Government employment no pass police or uniform agency. Highest Ministry job. The salary is shitty and it is more or less a Greek gift henched on not yielding any benefit.

Nigeria my country, they play politics with everything. This man had eye problem when he was alive n it made the news but the government didn't do anything about it.

The same with yemi tella then,they didn't release kobo till after his death was announced
Can you imagine! When he was sick, government looked the other way.
Now he is dead they now remember him
Medicine after death.

Thanks FG for honouring him, regardless of the fact it was after his passing. However, on a serious note, after changing the anthem, that dull flag is next to go...I mean it is so basic
