Bifwoli: Yorubas are where they are based on merits. Ibos want to get to where Yorubas are by ethnic manipulation, crying marginalization, and crocodile tears. Yorubas are silent hard workers. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Chief Fola Alade, OFR, the Asiwaju of Aramoko-Ekiti, a foremost architect and technocrat par excellence is credited for the design of many important monuments in Nigeria, including the Tafawa Balewa Square, in Lagos. Other structures he designed include the Federal Secretariat, Ikoyi in Lagos, and many of the state secretariats, Navy Town and Satellite Town, as well as the National Theatre also located in Lagos. He is reputed to have shared a deep friendship with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, despite their difference of opinion on several issues. [img]http://1.bp..com/-PXcFduVgl_w/UTorMkWdgdI/AAAAAAAAAL8/-FGOJqU9gEQ/s1600/TBS.jpg[/img] [img]https://unravellingnigeria.files./2015/03/img_1886.jpg[/img] Obasanjo wrote the foreword to Alade’s autobiography, titled: “Remember Whose Son Thou Art,” in which the former president said, “We had developed a long-standing relationship, which transcended officialdom to intimate friendship…For the avoidance of doubts, Fola Alade worked intimately with my predecessor, (late General Murtala Muhammed), and with me, in his often-changing duties as Chief Resident Architect, former Director of Public Building and, subsequently, as Federal Permanent Secretary, during our stint as Nigeria’s military leaders.” http://www.thepointng.com/fola-alade-reveals-old-secret-i-told-obj-to-honor-mko-he-flared-up/ "I did a bit on the Tafawa Balewa Square, by turning a strictly military parade ground to a shopping complex. In Yakubu Gowon's time, the place was strictly a parade ground, but when the government was shopping for a befitting place to receive the Queen of England, and where leading African musicians could perform during the FESTAC 77, we redesigned the place to be what it is today," he said, adding: "But looking at the place, today, it is a ghost place - totally abandoned and vandalised. Whenever I walk around the place or drive past there, I am almost in tears. It is a sheer neglect of a Remembrance Arcade. It doesn't speak well of a nation that is serious. It makes me feel unfulfilled because what does it take to keep a small opening for people to recreate and take a retrospective look at their country." ...."Normally, I worked up till about 8.00 p.m. after all my staff would have gone, I would try to design what we will do next day...." http://nm.onlinenigeria.com/templates/?a=6758 1 Like |

totit: Do you expect that blind bats to see the bolded? Even if you give him magnifying lenses, he will still not see anything. They are bunch of sore losers that will rather shift post than accept the fact that they are far inferior to Yorubas. By the time other tribes put up their industrial achivements and wealth, fowl yansh will completely open and the whole world shall know that the Igbos are nothing but obnoxious noisemakers that claim victimization in order to get other people's sympathy 1 Like |
