why is Azikwe Nigeria national hero?
is it because he supported Nigeria against his kinmen during the civil war?.
if that is so then i support him not easy to betray your people
i cant

LoL maybe you're a kid or not reading your country history,zik is in a class of his own those years even before civil war, he brought independence to Nigeria, they're attaching awolowo and others to balance the national level because naija is a tribalist country, most them were Zik's boys then.

yarimo:
It's clear this list is from one IPOB terrorists

Who's till date regarded as the father of the nation? No Nigerian Dead or alive would attain that level again.

aybabz101:
With due respect...abeg commot Nnamdi Azikiwe abeg.....

We have no national heroe in Nigeria only regional heroes...

To the yorubas, ours is Obafemi Awolowo...That is the only man who laid the foundation for the Yoruba region to progress, until the bastards grew up and poured variety of broken bottles and carcasses on the foundation.....

Remove Zik that they study in the universities across the globe? Awolowo was one of his boys then, Zik gave you independence that's why you must see his name in every nooks and crannies of this country.

Capernum:
Azikwe ke? Where you Wan put Awolowo?

LoL you want to compare awo to Zik? This is not about Nigeria.

mikeapollo:
Nnamdi Azikwe is not in the same class of ''national heroes'' kike Nkrumah, Mandela, Kaunda, Nyerere, Jomo Kenyatta, Ghandi etc
That is one of our problems

Do you know it was Zik that push Nkrumah to start going for Ghana independence? But Ghana would get theirs first cuz of interest of the colonial masters. They both have a hall dedicated to their names at a uni in Germany.

PigTormentor:
Who made Zik Nigeria national hero. Must be a joke.

There supposed to be a public holiday sef for Zik, the Zik mausoleum or whatever they call it isn't enough, he has no rival in naija.

Based on what? Just because he's Igbo?
What did he di that others lole him during that time didn't do? Absolutely nothing.

PigTormentor:
He's no where close to those guys, this list is on crack.

When you have it on exam papers write another name make we check whether you go pass, Zik has no rival

richiemcgold:
Nigeria does not have national hero. That's just the fact. There are regional and tribal heroes. But no one has done enough to be regarded as NATIONAL

Zik even pass Nigeria, he is called Zik of Africa for a reason, go and read history.

MrGerald:

No reasonable non biased school will fail anyone for writing a different name. This is all about matter of opinion of someone it's not based on facts.
Like might be that to you but I bet you that to Nigerians he's not.
I will write Awolowo or Balewa and I bet you that no real school will mark it as wrong. Unless the school is in Igbo land.
Go and write Zik at ABU and see if rhey won't mark you wrong.

DMCA:
We get new national hero, no be Nnamdi Azikiwe at all

Daniel Bwala is your national hero

Zik is indeed the king of national heroes in Nigeria

MrGerald:

As far as I know, his pan africanist movement was the reason behind that name. Btw, since I do not know history, you should pls tell me what exactly he did for Nigeria to be regarded as a national hero? Nigeria is not Africa.

Azikwe? I laugh in Ibibio
A great man he was, but....no, not in that sense

And his people keep blaming Yoruba for not supporting them to leave Nigeria.

Poloyanabo2:
Azikwe the unity beggar was the one who begged tafawa bale was and his people to remain in Nigeria when they wanted to secede.
He stopped Yorubas from owning kwara state as part of the SW, sacrificing Delta state in the process.
That man is the reason why Nigeria is one, God will keep punishingg him, Nigeria has no reason to be united,
Lets go our separate ways.

Sermwell:
Where's the source of these your rantings? Or are you speaking from a beer parlour?

When elders speak, you listen.
Its sad that history is no longer taught in Nigerian schools

They used their hands to spoil everything, from Azikiwe to aguiyi ironsi.
They don't ever think of secession when they're in power.
Had it been ironsi allowed adaka jasper Boro to successfully have his Niger delta Republic,
Niger delta Republic would have helped biafra to secede later when things went south.

That of USA should be Abraham Lincoln

Not Owelle, na Peter Obi sef.

Herbert Macaulay is our national hero.

He spearheaded Nigerian independence, others were his mere envoys.

It's because Nigeria is decided among ethnic lines that's why we are having this argument, each country has it's own hero, Zik is.considered and referred to as the father of new Nigeria. He's not giving much recognition here because of tribalism. Do you know why fg build that gigantic museum in Onitsha in his honor?

You be kid if you don't know about Zik, he gave you independence that's huge, you know why he has highest number of immortalized places in Nigeria? Every part of this country you must see Zik's name somewhere.

I'm Probably old enough to be your father. Nothing that you want to tell me about Zik that I don't already know.
He along with Awolowo and Bello fought for Nigerian independence, so how h3ll is he more entitled than those othe two.

Yes, he spearheaded the Zoo
