I heard this story a long time ago but have never run into material supporting it tillnnow. It is said that when the soldiers came for Samuel Ladoke Akintola, the bad Ass cocked his gun and kept about 50 of them running for their lives like Scar face. You have to understand that was the 60s just to put it into context. I've always wondered why history leaves out such stories when the movie industry can benefit from it. Akintolas story is in bold, contrast his case to FFK's dad , Kayode was forming tough guy before then. You have to hand it to Akintola, even modern day hard men would have surrendered weeping.

Interesting story! And to think that after Obasanjo Nigerians still voted in another military man for a second term smacks of no respect for those that died unnecessarily under military rule is the greatest insult ever. Nigerians truly have short memories. 2 Likes |

beautyoftheLord: or maybe they don't have short memories, but just choose not to care, thinking histories don't mean shiiit when compared to instant financial rewards. |

Why did the Igbo soldiers kill Akintola and Fani-Kayode? What were their crimes! |
