I am so happy for all you presented. The idea of immortalising The Great ZIK of Africa and the Owelle of Onitsha is very commendable. I dare suggest that the State Government working in concert with the State's Ministry of Tourism should train a Guide and educate him on every single item in the Centre. As one incharge of the Centre, he will be the Guide responsible for taking visitors/ tourists around. A Visitor's Book should equally be placed there . I very sincerely thank the initiators and request that something of this nature be equally done for Ahmadu Bello and Chief Obafemi Awolowo. Thanks
Fantastic! Great content. My father used to take me whenever he visited Zik in his Nsukka home - Onuiyi Haven. His wife, Professor Azikiwe, still lives there. It is a beautiful compound and home that should be a tourist destination. Zik was a close friend of my grandfather who was awarded an honorary doctorate at the University of Nigeria UNN in 1964. They need a full staff. This is a massive part of Nigerian history. Kudos to Governor Ugwuanyi.
Great job girl. Your presentation is superb. Your accent is so clear and easy to understand. I was actually looking at the photos to see if Nwabunie Azikiwe, Zik's grandmother was there. Nwabunie was the sister of my great grandfather and the daughter of Mba Akalam of Umudei village Onitsha who married into Azikiwe family and gave birth to Zik's father Obed Azikiwe.
I enjoyed the video, Vera. Not being Nigerian, I knew nothing about Azikiwe other than the fact that he was once president. Sounds like a very interesting man with a very long list of accomplishments well beyond his presidency.
Nne where have you been? You were one of the voices of authenticity and comfort vlogging out of the East. Please see how you can juggle your competing interests to put out vlogs with eastern content that won't take you too far from your our lovely Enugu. Abia and its renaissance might be one to consider at some point. Many lofty cheers.
Very great exposition with strong relics and records of historical importance. Kudos to those who thought it appropriate to establish such a centre. There should be room for improvement with additions of his later years activities towards the twilight of his sojourn especially post war efforts at integration and sundry political activism.
This is wonderful and commendable. We really have to preserve the legacy of our heroes and heroines. Zik was a great figure in Igbo land, Nigeria and Africa at large.
Common shut up your mouth what did he do for the igbos?If not his supported one Nigerianism that is still keeping igbos in pepertual bondage till today.
@@kennethjames563 Tame your anger 🤬😡. Nobody is perfect. We understand that a lot of things could have been done differently, but we cannot afford to cry over a spilled milk 🥛🍼. We should remain calm, cool 😎 and collected. That's the only way we can compete with the rest of the society. Remain blessed ❤️.
Chief Vera, Long time no see. Glad you came back with a bang. This takes me back to the good 👍 old days. The wonderful years 🌹 of the Eastern region. You were not born then, but we had a ball. Take care of yourself 💞.
Thank you, Chief Vera, for taking us on a tour of this important historical place and historical person that I would love to visit. To continue building a culture and country, it is imperative that actual physical things of historical figures are preserved and passed on to later generations. A library of important period documents should be made available for further research, as well. Great knowledge in knowing your roots, Vee… you would make a great tour guide😊!
When I saw the notification, I was looking forward to seeing an abandoned property, but fortunately & unfortunately, no be wetin I be think. I really like everything. Thanks to the person who's idea is behind it. Thanks greatly Vera, your hardwork is well appreciated. I hope to visit there someday...
You displayed Zik house well. That was a very good historical journey as a beacon. It vividly reminds me once again that we're in a pilgrim here in this Planet. Someday we'll be history like Zik of Africa but in a very old age. I implore us to take life easy, please. God bless you Chief Vera and every commentors.
A bigger structure and centre should be constructed in the FCT to bear sections for historical artefacts on the three major nationalists: Zik, Bello and Awolowo. We need it for our locals and expatriates who may want to do tours and expeditions to garner more knowledge about our great statesmen, their works, lives and times. The Nigerian government is so careless and indifferent about this aspect of our national values and heritage. Let us erect a Centre for our National Icons and History in the FCT.
Every nation has one particular man or woman who is exceptionally noted for his contributions. In nigeria Zik is that man not until we start talking about 3 men ok . We all know Zik and Nkrumah got Africa independence and in Ghana they revere nkrumah but here in nigeria u hear ppl talking about 3men or even more and mentioning city Hahaha... we re not yet ready for a nation .
Wow! Kudos to you Vera for this wonderful documentation, to the Governor who saw the importance of renovating the place and to the people who still make sure the record is kept save as we know that we Igbo people don’t place so much value on documenting history which says alot about our conflicting history. But wait oh!!! So Zick did have some portion of in the chronic tribalism that is still ravaging Nigeria till today?from the so called our compatriots?even though he thought he was fighting for everyone? Wow!!! This is unbelievable. Now I see why some of our people are blaming him for his inability to fight for ndi Igbo,He was busy playing a unifying figure while the other people were fighting solely for their region. Why on earth should one waste his/ her time trying so much to convince people/adults that do not like you to like you? Instead of focusing on building our region??? Today not only have we lost over half of the old eastern region which was Igbo territory, the little remaining 5 states are still been dragged by Fulani herdsmen. For me, hearing this type of disheartening revelation about him being rejected in London and Lagos, I see no need/reason to waste my time studying about him because to me he is a TOTAL DISGRACE yeah 👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
Well done for your visit and tour of ZIK HOUSE. What a historic place in ENUGU that should be looked after by Enugu State, otther Southern States in Nigeria and Nigeria Government for the Nation, Citzens and to attract tourists to raise money to maintain it. Leaders and nations who can not effectively lead, supervise and manager minors often fail to manage major things. Caution: Next time when you visit such venue again wear a glove. Wearing glove preserves the object and protects you against any infection. Unfortunately the venue has no tour guide to provide one.
I am surprised they are able to preserve that much documentation and artefacts about zikism. It's thoughtful of the governor but I am disappointed the museum of this relevance has no staff on duty. That tells you the level of ignorance among Nigerian leaders. They couldn't care less about IGR from tourism so long as Petro dollar is still flowing from Abuja. The moment you picked up that unlaminated hand written document I knew instantly there's no curators in that museum. In a staffed museum you would only be allowed to handle that with gloves if at all. Thanks for shining the light on this.
I thought as much too, ....great job with only one anomaly, " touching and removing a relic from its stand or location", please avoid that in subsequent editions, because it could land you in serious trouble.
Your content and presentation is great. You were quite professional in taking us through, that we almost felt as if we were present there. Your post script advise to Government on staffing and maintenance was spot on. This is one great legacy project Governor Ugwuanyi left.
This site should be properly guided and better secured as a national archive. If it is not maintained by the state or federal governments, someone should be held accountable.
Thank you for really Good presentation.please do not open the glass enclosure and handle paper items. otherwise there will be nothing left for others to see in years to come.thanks you. İ will definitely be visiting this museum. Thank you. We must build a centre in abuja celebrating Zik,Awo,Amadu bello
Nice discover. Thanks. It is really a shame you have to appeal to the government to do a better job. If we do not know our past, how do we know where we are going.
Vera, you did not do enough justice to the great Owelle of Onisha. Thank God his house has been renovated to show part of but definitely not all of his legacy. Zik was a generational colossus, the likes very difficult to replicate.

With all due respect and without prejudice, that there is nothing in this building showing that Professor Eyo Eta, the first Premiere of Eastern Region and first to live in it leaves much to be desired. Come what may, it would have been only just and fair to show that Professor Eyo Eta and Dr. Michael Okpara, who were also Premeires of Eastern Region lived in this house.
Good content and different from the conventional useless uninspiring contents by Nigerian bloggers. Wondering why is the place called Zil’s Center instead of Eyo Eta’s house who was the first Premier of Eastern Nigeria? I expect that Eyo Eta should be immortalized in Enugu as the first premier of our old region.
Zik’s centre because it’s been dedicated to Zik. Prof Ita may have a center elsewhere, but h agree that he should have some memorabilia in his honor in Enugu .
You are in a very minor position with that comment, Azikiwe doesn't even come close and time will prove it, his naivety and selfishness contributed to why igbos and biafrans at large are seen as second class citizens and more or less deprived of any chance to attain presidency in Nigeria except through default
@@fodaysaccoh3472must you keep jumping from comments to comments looking for how to put down some one to make yourself look smart? He is a human being and not perfect, if you think he did not do better why not take it from where he stopped and do better. God has called everyone to do their best to make the world a better place, why not contribute yours and let others emulate a better way instead of spreading hate and negativity and bad energy everywhere. Mind you, you will also give account of your own actions and comments when the time comes. God will require that from everyone. God will never reward any person for being a president but he will require what you did to others while you are in any position so please stop all this nonsense comments of presidency. Jesus is Lord yet he was never interested in being a president.
Zik wrote a book titled Odyssey in which he claimed that his progenitors came from Benin. He also claimed that Onitsha means lordly, onini-looking down on others to which Ojukwu blasted him that there were more Onichas elsewhere in other parts of Igboland. He never recovered from this and that is still why Ojukwu is 70% popular in Igboland. Nnewi and Onitsha people do not see eye to eye and when Ojukwu died, he was sojourned to Owerri, Aba, Umuahia, Abakaliki, Enugu and to Nnewi, bypassing Onitsha.
Zik graduated from Lincon University, U.S.A. in 1933, long before the civil rights movement. Slavery was still going on in parts of America. He, however, was not the first American college educated Nigerian.
False. Zik is the first African to graduate from American University. Zik graduated with a first degree in 1930, graduated with Masters of Arts degree in History in 1932. He started his PhD in 1933 and abandoned it in 1934 and returned to Nigeria
@@Chiefveraplease what year was his application to join a tennis club in Lagos rejected? And can we get details to prove the accuracy of this information?

He’s a very selfish man, we’re in this zoological animal kingdom called Nigeria is bcuz of him selfish interests, when ahmadu bello and Awolowo was advocating to have their own country, Zik is busy with one zoological Nigeria, anyone who knows the meaning of freedom will never forgive this greedy man for what he did to Igbo people, he put us in a big mess
Nnamdi Azikiwe is disappointed for truthful Igbo man who knows history he called Igbo people rebel during the biafra war 1967-1970 he is not supposed to be remembered in Igbo land

Zik wrote a book titled Odyssey in which he claimed that his progenitors came from Benin.
He also claimed that Onitsha means lordly, onini-looking down on others to which Ojukwu blasted him that there were more Onichas elsewhere in other parts of Igboland. He never recovered from this and that is still why Ojukwu is 70% popular in Igboland.

correction: Zik did not own nor did he start "Daily Times"
