USA Africa Dialogue Series - [Naijaintellects] On the Matter of Staying the Course on this Zik Project {Re: On Zik Project: Re ON RESTORATION OF ZIK MEMORIAM..

QUOTE

The same elements that have refused our Nation to foster unity are at it

[There are] Those who, out of jealousy, were driven to put a spanner in the

height of idiocy for any South African of Mandela's tribe to see it as an
insult on Mandela's tribe if a South African of another tribe leads the
promotion of a national project that gives Mandela his rightful place in

that should neither be supported nor sympathised with. They are evil and
should be condemned in all its ramifications for the benefit of Nigeria. -

.....This is about pettiness that I, Azuoma Anugom, initiated this project
as opposed to them period!!! That's what this is all about. They are using
Bolaji Aluko as a scapegoat. Somebody even shared with me that some folks
are mad that a woman and an Imo lady for that matter initiated this project
