Free education for primary schools commenced in 1955 in Western Nigeria.

Thank God he has other things named after him, cos N10 has no relevance or importance within our economy of today. Can't remember when last I saw N10 note.
Never knew an Ibo man championed free primary education, thought it was Awolowo. Good enlightenment

Today's politicians do not care about good name anymore.

Give them the money and they will say black is white.

Despite all the atrocities Abacha committed, 5 major political parties endorsed him for president before his death.

Even though his loots are still repertraited, President Buhari till today maintains that Abacha didn't loot any money. Just because he was an accomplice.

Pele o, should we do the comparison between ewedu and nsala. These are the thing we will consider. The English name for both, their botanical name, other nations that eat them with us. The nutrients they contain. Let see which one is worst between them. Are you ready? And talking about dirtiness, are you referring to that tribe from the land of corpse water drinker that WHO called the dirtiest in the world?

I don't understand how a person will wake up in the morning and greet his parents with kicks or slaps.
How a human entity can consume rocks without drinking water. Let me not mention Flat-ties now before they say I insulted one tribe that their women are hairy
Your mention does not only reek of sheer tribalism but depicts how far you are on the crest of mediocrity.

I have lived in the south west and I can tell you authoritatively that some Yoruba women are also hairy. Therefore, do not showcase your ignorance in a bid to denigrate the women of a particular tribe.

Celebrate greatness and not mediocrity.....until we make a 360 turn to start celebrating people that achieved greatness just we used to do instead of celebrating mediocres such as ex BBN housemates, baby mamas, unscrupulous celebrities and corrupt politicians.
