"Will Nigeria ever produce leaders like Chief Obafemi Awolowo again?"
This is a million dollar question. Only Olodumare can tell. Pa. Awo has done his own bit but Nigerians frustrated his effort and gave him a portfolio that he did not deserve. Imagine someone called him "the best president Nigeria never had." As you rightly noted the Sage was called "the prophet of doom." Pa. Awo rendered a selfless service for his country and instead of praising him they libeled "a tribalist".
Whatever happens to this country we must hold our leaders accountable. They should realize that one day they will be brought to the alter of justice.
Pa. Awo lives on.
