I think it's either he's going through midlife crisis and can't find a better therapy, or he's an oldie here who's disappointed with the way things are turning out here, and is contributing his quota to the madness.

The latter makes more sense

4. Tina onwudiwe

she died from Cancer

I tink d other person squat in is emir Sanusi Lamido.

I remember Tyna Onwudiwe more from her days as co-presenter of Kessingsheen Hit Show (1986 or thereabout). The commercial from AJ Seward, the makers of Kessignsheen hair shampoo and sponsors of the show, stuck in my head: "good secretaries are hard to find, I think I"ll keep mine. Thank you Kessingsheen".

The days of the Jerry Curl hairdos. Can't believe 30 years have flown by just like that.

If you're old as this post suggests then why do you post the kind of fuckery I've been reading from your handle?

I didn't know someone else noticed.

Nice one @naptu2.
But what exactly was messy about Mojekwu and her assistant's affair that you can't talk about? I mean,its old news.Some of us want to know. Thanks.

And I think nairaland should have a forum labelled 'Oldies Nigeria' or something like that for stuffs like this.
Someone wrote earlier about the site having 'cobwebbed corridors'. I want to add,those corridors ain't only cobwebbed, they are also very dark,wet and slimy and many times have the stench of 'rotting human brains'!
Makes it hard to come across gems of history like this.
OK,am out.

Naptu abeg do you have any clips of Tina Onwudiwe? I used to watch her growing up and there is this song she sang and part of the lyrics goes "brothers killing brother, children fighting wars" etc

I always sing it to my wife but will love to have her listen to the song herself

Asiko lo laye, ara mi e ma se s'ole , asiko asiko...

naptu2:


You are totally wrong. She died in 2001. Can you provide proof that she died in the 1990s and I'll provide proof that she died in 2001?

don't mind the guy, 1000% sure of emptiness... a lot of people on this platform are so ignorantly sure of themselves with halfbaked information most times, even when you try to put them right they still insist on being ignorant! well.....

Ishilove:

You don't know naptu2 as well as I do so no, it's more than just google research.

Are you phucking kidding me? All i did was type in Pamela Mojekwu and it pretty much just gave the same information he/she did. People are just lazy and ignorant when it comes to researching on the internet.

This thread is revived?

Great!

As an aside, there was this set of Social Studies textbooks (a different for each primary school class) we used in the late 70s that detailed the lives and exploits of people like Mungo Park, Lander brothers,Mary Slessor, Florence Nightingale, etc.

Does anyone here remember the name, publisher or how one can get copies?

Hmmmn, the time under review is way too early for me, if you'd asked about early 90s probably. Wish I could help though.

naptu2:

Probably UPE.

I can't remember what the cover looked like.

Each page told the story of different people.

I think book 5 or 6 discussed the slave trade, life of the african slaves and their descendants in dispora and their emancipation with reference to people like William Wilberforce.

The Nigeria independence struggle, I belive was discussed in another book.

I have this feeling it was published by Spectrum.

I know the books you are talking about,but quite frankly I can't remember the name. There was a different text book for each class. We're they social studies text books or history text books?
