#NigeriaPolitics: Forget the Yoruba charlatans like Sunday Igboho and his motley crew of ignoramuses, tribal zealots & criminals of all hues; the guiding-spirit of SW political thought, late Chief Awolowo, believed in one strong united Nigeria existing as a true Federation. 
He believed a strong& united Nigeria, in a manner of speaking, to be " the great hope of the race." His politics actually was about the black man proving to the world that he could rule himself...
He wanted an egalitarian society based on the principle of Democratic socialism.

The events of the past few months in which leaders of several African countries as far as Libya have come to have audience with @MBuhari , justify the belief that Nigeria has a central role to play in the eventual emancipation of our continent and Race. Nigeria must not fail!
That Awo could not rule Nigeria was much less a personal failure than it was a great loss to the black race as a whole. He was a lawyer, economist, strategist, deep-thinker and humanist who regarded man as the "sole dynamic" in nature.
A united Nigeria as opposed to a disintegrated one is to the benefit of all. The secessionists' bid to fragment Nigeria into small, weak, unremarkable states will be a disservice to the dreams of our founding fathers.
We must make the Nigerian federation work.

We may not have Awo around anymore but we have his true disciples around. We also know the pretenders & the fakes.
The true Awoists are still working for one Great Nigeria.
