This was written by non Igbo, Prof Tekena Tamuno who has taught in Ibadan all his life since 60s. This is not afonja propaganda!

Prof Tamuno NEVER wrote such nonsense. He was completely detribalised with a Yoruba wife, Igbo and Hausa friends and having lectured in Ibadan, NDA and NIPSS.

His family has this to say about someone impersonating their father:

Re: Disclaimer: Unauthorized Use of the Name, Image and Likeness of late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno



To Whom It May Concern:

It has come to the attention of the family of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno (1932-2015) that an article titled “IGBO ARE THE MAKERS OF MODERN NIGERIA-PROF TEKENA TAMUNO” posted on a website info@theawarenessngr.com (Opinions section) is improperly using the name and image of our dear dad, the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno. The article is circulating on social media. The faceless and nameless author of the article uses the name of our late dad at the beginning and end of the Article. A cursory review of the post may lead a reader to believe that it was written by the late Emeritus Professor Tekena. N. Tamuno. Buried in the article is a statement ascribed to our dad, without a full and verifiable citation or context, which we are unable to accept, contextualize or refute, partially or fully.



The undersigned on behalf of the Tekena N. Tamuno family hereby unequivocally states that the afore-mentioned write-up posted on the above-mentioned website and circulating on social media was not written by the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno nor was it approved by his family. Attaching our dad’s photograph and name to the title and at the end of the article as if he was the author of the article is impermissible. The family of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno strongly object to such unauthorized use of the name and likeness of the late patriarch of the family and submit this disclaimer to that end.



The late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno, of blessed memory, was apolitical, non-sectional and non-partisan and his scholarly writings reflect that. Inasmuch as everyone has a right to free speech/freedom of expression, the family of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno family is saddened that a nameless and faceless person would use the likeness and name of our dad to push the author’s narrative and such conduct is strongly denounced by the family. The family hereby cautions the general public to cross check facts that may circulate on the internet ascribed to a well known, indeed to any, personality, to verify the authenticity of the alleged facts or statements. The family of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno request that info@theawarenessngr.com immediately remove our dad's name and picture from the unauthorized publication and provide full verifiable citation of any quote attributed to our dad.



This serves to put info@theawarenessngr.com and the world on notice that future attempts to publish and disseminate information that misleads as to authorship under the name and likeness of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno will be vigorously challenged to the fullest extent of applicable laws. The family of the late Emeritus Prof. Tekena N. Tamuno reserves all its rights.

Sincerely,

eagleu:


You pasted a clip on Ethiopia being the fastest growing economy in the World, but with the usual subversive and confusing Yoruba media, you conveniently forgot that Tamuno was talking about 1950, and not 2017 you cited for Ethiopia.

An oversight? Not likely.
Criminal obfuscation? More likely!

Bwahahaha!

Many yoruba suffer cardiac pains when Ibos are rightfully praised..

I'm sure they'll hate the prof terribly for this. cheesy

Let us assume all this nonsense is true which it is not .

How much of " Eastern Nigeria" is Ebolaland

Today we can see the Difference in contribution from Ebolaland and the OIL RICH states of Bayelsa ,Rivers Akwa Ibom and Cross River States.
It is tempting to ignore Ibohomosexuals when they start airing their compensatory psychology for their profound inferiority but some young people might actually believe the pathetic wretches. It is tragic when you consider the mental health of their leader Nnamdi Kanu and how his folly has afflicted the rest of them with an intractable malady
Oga you are just blabbing, we both know you are in severe pains, Kindly take your meds make we no see "Gone so soon"
