For many of us. He remains our leader
Na Awolowo picture we suppose dey hang for offices for SW. Jerry really held it down for us big time. We probably would've been fucked if it was someone else at the helm during that tumultuous period.

You don't need to be in the medical line to establish one. Just build your own hospital and treat people for free.
Replying to @nurskemi
Unfortunately darling I am not in the medical line and if I am I will definitely do . Am sure is not every one that comes to the hospital that expect not to pay. But if I have to save a life in that moment trust I would. Everything is not money.VALUE LIFE.

That's because some elite in Lagos island supported Zik
And this was exactly what they did. A state of emergency was declared and Awolowo was sent to prison. Azikiwe did everything possible to destroy the western region in the first republic. This is why I find it gross that a street is named after him in Lagos island.

Father of public health in Nigeria
The first Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ife was Professor Oladele Ajose (MD, PhD), a Glasgow University graduate and Nigeria's first professor of public health, who was recruited from the University of Ibadan. He served from 1962 to 1966 until political upheavals and military coups led him to be replaced. One of the pioneer University in Nigeria that didn’t start by appointing a foreign Vice Chancellor.

Not just Alhaji Jakande but Chief Onabanjo, Chief Ajasin, Chief Ige and Dr Alli. All unifed under UPN. As I have always said, UPN has the best opening into any Nigerian government. Free education, subsidized, housing estates and so on, all within 4 years.
But how did Alhaji Lateef Jakande achieve so much in less than 4 years? No excess crude, no huge IGR, no loans, yet he built houses, schools, hospitals, & a university. It proves leadership is not about time or resources, but about sincerity, vision, and discipline. #Konibaje

The Chief remains my leader
This is such a fantastic tweet. It’s always great to see when young folks reel out historical FACTS. The only thing missing here is what I shall add. Chief Obafemi Awolowo, our hero and icon, introduced debates into Nigerian politics. He was the FIRST to introduce a MANIFESTO. Not abuses, insults, false propaganda, gaslighting and rage baiting like some others in his time. I urge everyone to read pages 225-226 of the book ‘AWO: The Autobiography of Chief Obafemi Awolowo. I am a proud Yoruba man from Osun 💙. I can never and will never suffer from inferiority complex in my lifetime!

Ibos support GRV is enough reason not to support him.

And who cares? He can continue with own bigotry. While we continue with our own. May the best bigot win
This was apparently what turned him into what he is on here today but when I say that igbo bigotry is reactionary they swear I'm lying 😂 Go through the pictures.

For many of us , he remains our eternal leader. I will never forget what he and his 5 lieutenant did from 1979-1983. Free education, subsidized healthcare, housing estates, industries, universities. All in 4 years.

We won't suffer and stop threatening Yoruba with opposition politics. We played opposition politics in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and partly the 4th republic.
They act like they can survive without the rest of Nigeria, so they are willing to crucify the image of the ethnicity on the cross of Tinubu and family. Years from now when their children start suffering the effects of the hate they have sown in the hearts of every other ethnic group, they’ll start playing the victim card. But now it’s “you people are not relevant”, “go back to your states”, and omoluabi supremacy. lol.

Not a particular exam. But it was when we wrote MB for medicine, surgery, paediatrics and O&G all in part 3.
What's the BLOODIEST exam you've ever written?

For clarity Epe and Ikorodu were part of Ijebu province.

Yes . We thank them all. And to Chief Alakija you will never be forgotten. If not for your financing and contributions, we would never have gotten the Action group and Chief Awolowo. Thank you
For this, we have people to thank: Mojola Agbebi (ex- D.B. Vincent), Adegboyega Edun (ex- Henryson Samuels), J.J. Ransome-Kuti, Rev. T.A. Ogunbiyi, the Alakijas (ex- Assumpcao), the Ajasas (ex- Macaulay), etc.

Abi o. Even though he is wrong. It's like saying English people are french because of the Norman invade. Or saying English people are German because the current ruling house is from Hamburg in Germany.
Lol!! Look at the comment. So, because the first Oba of Lagos was a descendant of Benin, that means the indigenous people of Lagos are from Benin too, right? It’s true that common sense is not common.

Lagos is cosmopolitan, well Kano is far more cosmopolitan. Why are you not interfering in their politics?
