If she's still alive she will be a shrivelled old crone in her late sixties by now

Life expectancy is 58 years in Nigeria

Awolowo was a complere yorubacentric person who would have place the interest of yorubas above others.

You and I know this

Perhaps you can tell me the reason you think he would've placed the interest of Yoruba above others? Please give me one reason?

That is why this country can never work, just look at the way you reason. Who is tribal bigot between you that see everything from ethnic point of view and the great Awo you are ignorantly accusing.

If we check very well, you were not even being born during his time.

The only thing am seeing in the video is the blue tortoise car!

After she don spoil our girls finish, she dey there they speak English. Who her English help?

Soon Nigerians will call for her to be made a minister.
Luckily she's doing great in the IT sector.

Those days NTA choose well whom to interview, while others around will be happy to surface in the background.

It is good to speak out.
The ENDSARS protest will resurface in 10-15 years, when some may want to use it for politics or campaigns

I was in Unilag then o! I was in my 3rd year. I remember the closing of school from April 1994 to like March 1995. It was not easy. grin grin grin

Many who came after our generation "worship" us. Many of the lecturers then seemed to take out their frustration of poor pay on us innocent students.

It wasn't easy
That's mad cool... You're one of the real OGs of Unilag back in the early 1990s. Whoa! A whole 11 months of closure. A significant number of students left Nigeria for foreign Unis during that period. Those who remained are the real OGs tbh.

Omoyele Sowore's travails at Unilag though shaped him into becoming what he is and even enabled him to gain recognition and finally was able to get into the United States under the pro-democracy struggle.

STOP typing B.S. and falsehoods here on NL. Some of you younger ones don't take the time to learn correct historical events by reading biographies and autobiographies of prominent folks in Nigeria and worldwide.

Are you aware that Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, was a lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria and also was confered with the national title of the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic (GCFR)? That's a title reserved for ONLY Nigerian Presidents. Obafemi Awolowo was a well-educated man who read journalism and studied law at the prestigious London School of Economics and Political Science. He stood for justice and spoke on behalf of the Nigerian masses. You can't become a SAN if you are not a nationalist and do NOT have the welfare of citizens of all socioeconomic groups at heart.


Awolowo was a national figure. Of course all the iconic Nigerian leaders pre-independence had to start governance from the regional levels but then got elevated to the national level.

To God be the glory. I am 65 years old, well and very active (do most of my house chores - by my choice). Interestingly I nurtured 7 Biological Children, the last (youngest) is in 400 Level in a University. I am surrounded by numerous Grandkids. So "Shrivelled old crone" is yet to hit on me. Alhamdulillah.

Now back to the main topic. The Lady looks so much like my Mate and dear Friend at ABU ZARIA, where we read Accounting! She was/is based in Lagos, name OLUFUNKE OKE. I am honestly and seriously looking for her. Could this Lady be my OLUFUNKE? If she is not then the resemblance is so too much! OLUFUNKE where are you now? Personally base in KD.

1994 during the dark years of Abacha.

The truth is that Nigeria isn't moving forward. If you listen to Fela's songs of which most were sang in the 70s and 80s. 95% of the problems he highlighted are still being experienced today. Infact, they've become worse.
swears..fela had been singing about it..ever since.

Everyone knows the country is not working. People only just want to get to power and steal their own portion of the treasury. They lie to you that they are making progress and some daft ones would still believe there’s actually progress. Unfortunately it remains like this even in another 100 years. You keep doing a thing the same way and expect different result.

Until ‘old things’ pass away in Naija, nothing new can ever happen
