Awolowo Came Out From Prison Without Meeting His Conspirators Alive. by ProfOlu(m): 1:14am On May 10, 2020 |
When Awolowo was sentenced to prison, a lot of Progressives were shocked, some died instantly and some became sickly! Some people(Bishops and Statesmen) went to beg the Central Government of Zik and Balewa. The Government agreed to free Awolowo but, knowing fully well that Awolowo would not agree, they said his wife HID must come to beg the government and after that, Awolowo would be freed. The aim was to put Awolowo's wife pictures begging the government on front pages of major newspapers. The 'Eminent' men went to meet HID and persuaded her to beg the government. HID thanked them all but said she could only do that if her husband permitted her, if not, she would not. Recall in 1986, similar offer was made to GMB's former wife but she fell for it, Buhari later divorced her. The eminent men went to meet Awolowo in prison and begged him to allow his wife beg the government, they cited many verses from the Bible(Read My March through Prisons or Travails of Democracy and the Rule of Law by Chief Obafemi Awolowo). Awolowo, in reply, thanked them very well but declined. He said "my wife beg who exactly? Will she kneel down or prostrate? Beg for what offence exactly? That I plotted a Coup? That's ridiculous! You're men of God, you should know that God does not not encourage people to bow to injustice....".... *Awolowo allegedly said and I quote " I believe I should not be in prison but here I am, the only Premier that ended up in prison for no reason.* *_If we are confused about my innocence, let God be the Judge.* *_If truly I did what they accused me of, I will not come out of this prison alive but if I am innocent, I will not spend my life here in prison, I will come out and as the Lord lives, I won't meet any of those who conspired against me alive......._* Thank you gentlemen for your visit, I wish you journey mercies.... " By the time Awolowo was released from prison few years later by Yakubu Gown, all those that conspired to imprison him, Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa Balewa, Akintola and the rest had been killed in a coup. You live on the earth, you eat rat, you live on the earth you eat fish, you live on the earth you do evil, the judgement is in the earth.... Earth the killer! The rest is history! 12 Likes 3 Shares

ProfOlu: Interesting story. What nobody ever managed to tell me is how Gowon, who was in office for barely a week, and was not recognized as head of state in the Eastern Region, managed to release Awolowo who was in Calabar prison in the East? Gowon never released Awolowo, he didn't even have the powers to do so at the time. Everyone knows it was Ojukwu who ordered Awolowo's release after the death of Ironsi 28 Likes 2 Shares |

Gandollar:In olden days yorubas, it takes a lot of courage for a man to take his life. Only a hero fies that. you people should patiently learn about others history rather than comment in ignorance. Anyway, how can a group of people without acceptable ancestral history appreciate historical background of others. Bastards spoil happy home.... 1 Like 1 Share |

I didn’t really appreciate much about Awo until I read the book “Awo” [i] I love this part: Awolowo allegedly said and I quote " I believe I should not be in prison but here I am, the only Premier that ended up in prison for no reason.* *_If we are confused about my innocence, let God be the Judge[/i].* Hmmm... “let God be the judge” reminds of what they said Saro-Wiwa told Abacha too before he was hung 4 Likes 1 Share

You folks just make careless statement ( If he had been allowed to run the country..........) Why don't you focus your attention on investigating who did not allow him to run the country? Was he primarily responsible for his inability to rule Nigeria? Did he personally empower his enemies, via his political actions, who ultimately prevented him from running the country. These are the questions you need to ask rather than just regurgitating uncritical statements. KingJa: 4 Likes |

Nice comments above by Baba Awo. North always believing power is their birth right, east always believing in restructuring or a fragment of them going to "you already know". South west always trying to bridge the gap but filled with backstabbers and betrayers. South south always bombing pipelines and relying only on crude oil.

KingJa:But he couldn't tell you how he managed to release Awolowo from Calabar prisons in the Eastern Region that did not recognise Gowon as head of state. Below is what Ojukwu said about releasing Awolowo We’ve said this over and over again, so many times, and people don’t understand; they don’t want to actually. If you remember, I released Awolowo from jail. Even that, some people are beginning to contest as well. Awo was in jail in Calabar. Gowon knows and the whole of the federal establishment knows that at no point was Gowon in charge of the East. The East took orders from me. Now, how could Gowon have released Awolowo who was in Calabar? Because of the fact that I released him, it created quite a lot of rapport between Awo and myself and I know that before he went back to Ikenne, I set up a hotline between Ikenne and my bedroom in Enugu. He tried like an elder statesman to find a solution 9 Likes 2 Shares |
