Nigeria is capable of painting itself black without any assistance from anyone.
The hunger, disease, poverty and wretchedness of the average Nigerian is something that is beyond the imagination of any fake news inventer.

I wish Tinubu can create a portfolio for me under the ministry of communication and digital economy to deal with fake news carrier, people painting Nigeria black on the SM and their likes.

How is the rotten suya market?

GOOOAAAALLLL.

Rashford scores with his very first touch.

5 : 1 England.

Iranians on twitter are using their game against England to highlight atrocities committed against young Iranians by their government. They have branded the Islamic regime as terrorists.

The only maggot I'm aware of is the one that climbed out of your mom's womb as she was giving birth to you.

Continue celebrating incompetence, insecurity, runaway corruption and hyper inflation like the born fool you are.

"During the workers’ general strike of 1945, when the colonial government stopped their salaries, Adunni mobilized women in support of the workers and gave money to the workers’ Union for coping strategy.

SHE DID NOT WANT THE SAME PEOPLE SHE FOUGHT TO LEAVE HER PEOPLE ALONE. PEOPLE SHE CLAIMED DID NOT TREAT HER PEOPLE WELL.

The myopic pessimist also ended it ingloriously.

AND WHO IS CELEBRATING A BANISHED OUTCAST, BUT A DUNCE LIKE THE MAGGOT WORSHIPER WRITER.

Stop mixing Jesu (diamond) with that other filthy gutter thing you mentioned.

Adunni Oluwole was a Unitarist, and anti-independence activist. Adunni, a small, almost fragile woman, was one of Nigeria’s most colorful female leaders in the decade prior to independence.

Adunni did not think Nigeria was ready to attain independence in 1956 when a date in that year was proposed, and she worked to prolong the British stay.

Adunni was born in 1905 into the family of an Ibadan warrior to whom her fearlessness is usually credited.

Her early early years were spent with Bishop Howells, the vicar of St. John’s church Aroloya, Lagos, and she grew up in Mushin, a difficult child.

As a youth, she wrote a very successful play for the Girl’s Guild of St. John’s Church in Lagos, that was directed by the Nigerian nationalist, Herbert Macaulay.

She later became the only female founder of a professional theater company in the West of Nigeria.

During the workers’ general strike of 1945, when the colonial government stopped their salaries, Adunni mobilized women in support of the workers and gave money to the workers’ Union for coping strategy.

In the same year, she founded a party that had men as its great majority and won a seat in Ikirun, Osun North of the Western Region in the 1954 House of Representatives regional election, defeating bigger parties such as the NCNC and the Action Group of Dr. Nnamdi Azikwe and Chief Obafemi Awolowo respectively.

The Nigerian Commoner’s Party that she formed opposed the rapid transfer of power to Nigerians at the price of ‘dictatorship’ of some over the others. With this shocking view she gained instant fame, and her message resonated well among the rural people who were already complaining about heavy taxation they came to be known among Yoruba-speaking groups as “Egbe Koyinbo Mailo” which translates to “The White Man Must Not Go”. The group did not stay around for long due to inadequate funding after her death.

On 25th August, 1955, Adunni carried her campaign to the palace of the Olubadan who invited chiefs and men of affairs to witness her submission. There, she was accosted by Ibadan politician, Adelabu Adegoke, who called her harlot and threatened to hit her with broom sticks. After her banishment from Ibadan, Adunni took her message to Akure where she tied ropes round her waist and had two strong men who she had hired to pull her through the streets.

She will then make speeches denouncing the Nigerian political class who she claimed, will become cheaters of common people that she symbolized.

She died of whitlow in 1957.

Her stance looked reactionary at the time but events in our country 60 years after the so-called independence show clearly that Adunni saw what this country would become in the hands of internal colonialists after the departure of the British.

She was our own Nostradamus.

She probably died before 1960 so that her eyes would not behold evil.

God bless the child
