lol..pls
I dont talk to illiterates like you......
go and read your books and be like Dr.Ekwueme when you grow up...
and pls stop trying so hard to speak high grammar for me... cheesy

attention seeker!!!!!

lol a literate guy complaining that an illiterate is speaking "high grammar" to him. I doubt you could tell irony even if it slapped you in the face. This isn't "high grammar", it's just regular english language for me... perhaps you could learn it too if you had 7 degrees?

I pray never to be like Alex Ekwueme, a dishonorable thief whose only achievement in life is to hoodwink a people beaten down by poverty and hopelessness that they begin to hail building statues as a dividend of democracy.

did I tell you that I am poor..
how old are you btw??
your comments seem so childish...because you dont even know his achievements...
Alex Ekwueme is a legend the only Nigerian with seven academic degrees, an achievement that will take you a lifetime to accomplish

You must be the most stupid person on earth. after seven academic degrees, he became a vice president without his degrees transforming his people. he looted for himself and family only to die in shame. He is part of the leaders that led us to where we are right now, except you want to exonerate him because he is from your clan.

A rare breed of what? If we have to "read about him" then he was probably just as inconsequential as the rest. I never saw him campaign for better pay for workers, i never saw him fight against corruption... all i saw was another charlatan happy to feed at the public trough, regardless of the plight of his people. Please educate me... most of you seem to have a hard time telling us what exactly he's done to deserve all the RIPs.

I haven't replied yet and you say I'm having a hard time, are you that quick to dismiss people, first and foremost Ekwueme is a Pan Nigerian a lacking attribute in today's Nigeria, he selfless fought for return of democracy in Nigeria against the dreaded Abacha even after in the end he was denied PDPs presidential ticket he didn't bother, Ekwueme never enriched himself while in office Buhari found him guilty of nothing after his military takeover, I rather have men who stay true to character than ones who play sly and form anti corruption fight, only few or none of our today's leaders can match Ekwueme's class

My brother, at what point do we start to learn our lessons and stop this superstitious nonsense? Speaking the truth isnt the same as speaking bad. Alex looted your pension so he can treat himself in london, only to die anyway. What happens when you fall sick? You start shopping around for miracles because you're too poor to afford common drugs?
Look at what you just spewed because of hatred. How, when and where was Alex Ekwueme ever associated with Pensions or looting? A man who left government over 33 years ago and has been out of government ever since. How in your dreams did he commit the crime of pension looting?

1. Saying someone is pan Nigerian is the same as saying that someone is breathing air. It is a meaningless statement that adds zero value to anyone.

2. He selflessly fought for return of democracy how? We only got democracy because Abacha died of natural causes, simple. I find it odd that you say he "didn't bother" after he lost the PDP presidential ticket. So was he "fighting for the return of democracy" because he cared for us or because he was more interested in achieving high office again so he could enrich himself? So it would be ok for him to not fight for democracy unless there is some political office he could gain? Strange.

3. Ekwueme may not have enriched himself, but he did nothing to fight for better living conditions for you either.

4. Staying true to character is another one of those empty statements that convey nothing of substance. True heroes are remembered for tangible achievements that impact the lives of others, not for "Staying true to character" as if the rest of us are staying false to character.

In one breath you just accused him of looting pensions and now he didn't enrich himself?

I live in a country where i am guaranteed millions of dollars in pensions when i retire. You can enjoy building the next statue in Imo state to Alex Ekwueme. By the way, what London hospital are you flying to when next you're sick?

The man's dead. The current Government has an online page, why not take your faux e-activism there, no?

And since you're so 'patriotic', you should come down here and fix the rots you won't stop whining about.

Death is inevitable. The next page is peaceful, without pain or sorrow. Pa Ekueme lived an exemplary life, and his name will never be forgotten among the great. We will miss u grandpa, but its best you sleep now. When tomorrow comes, the King of glory will come with immortality, and all the dead shall be raised. We may cry, but we cry because we are humans, but deep inside, it's victory, victory that cannot be purchased by money. Let me stop here.
