This is one of the best interviews I have listened to lately, they comrade is not only vast in history, he was also a witness and participant. Thank you sir, may God bless you and your family
This comrade Dan really hit the nail on the head. Weldone Agbaletu.
The invitee is a renowned historian. I love him. He should author this interview in a book for posterity.
This is a very educative program, may almighty Allah continue increase young Dele Adeyanju more wisdom
Agba man. Baba no Dey disappoint. God bless you sir 💯🙌🙌
👏Brilliant....Congrats on your Israel trip Agbaletu✌✌✌
We need to have this documented. It's too much.
Hi Dele
I like your show,particularly this one,just display your account for support.
Abiola and Obasanjo were distant cousins. Abiola was Obasanjo's senior by a year at BBHS. MKO was an exceptional student in his set likewise Obj in his set. In fact, Obj was always first in all subjects except in Latin, which (Late) Rear Admiral Adebimpe Adewumi always topped. Late Adewumi was Prince Bola Ajibola's cousin. There was silent bitter rivalry between MKO and OBJ,no wonder was silent on June 12 throughout his 8 years rule. OBJ always wants to be the only first, the reason behind his hidden agenda for opposing BAT. The two of them placed Abeokuta on global map likewise Fela, Soyinka
You are not aware of the fact that Obasanjo was the one that annulled an impasse to ensure that Abiola's candidacy was acceptable to the northern ruling elite.
The most powerful political figure in the north then was Sheu Musa Yar'adua. Abiola rejected Yar'adua's option for a running mate, which was Atiku Abubakar. Yar'adua then withdrew his support for Abiola. That was a deadly impasse. The end of the road.
Every effort to pacify Yar'adua fell flat. No one would change his mind, even when Atiku himself has begged him to let it go. Hinted that the only human being that could move Yar'adua was his former boss, General Obasanjọ, Atiku went to Obasanjọ and pleaded.
Obasanjọ was moved by Atiku's selflessness. One phone call to Yar'adua that he should resume his support for Abiola, the tables turned. Abiola wọn the north by a landslide, not to talk of the south.
That was why years later Obasanjo chose Atiku as his running mate after Atiku has won election as a state governor.
So, Obasanjọ might have beef with Abiola; he contributed to his success...
Stop exaggerating facts to suit your political inclination.
The two of them were classmates at Baptist Boys High School. In fact Abiola's daughter said so when Buhari named Abuja stadium after Abiola. Obasanjo also said Abiola was his classmate .
@abiolaboldnessayoola2336 Haven said all these. You just clearly pointed out the reason for the "silent bitter rivalry." Mind you, I have no political inclination, so why exaggeration?
This man is an encyclopedia of history 🙌🙌
El-Mustapha did not corroborate but was corroborated by others. He was the first to mention that Chief MKO Abiola didn't drink any tea, but was strangled to death with the dress he had on. This was at the Oputa Panel which was televised live.
U guys may ur days be long ..for adding up to our knowledge ❤❤❤
I do not know this man but I can attest to the accuracy of his narration of the primary that got Chief M.K.O Abiola the presidential ticket of the SDP. I was an adult (in my late 20s) student at University of Jos when the primary was held in Jos, Plateau state . My late uncle's friends and relatives, who were politicians and in M.K.O's political camp and delegates at the primary election, were accommodated in our house. Their narrations of the events then were exactly the same narration he gave. May the good Lord be pleased with all the major actors in the events, bless the soul of Chief M.K.O Abiola and all the fallen heroes of democracy in Nigeria. Aamin.
This is crazily deep. He needs to write a book about his experience
Nice program and kudos to comrade Dam and Mr Adeyanju. For more details and info, The book titled NIGERIA'S SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE by Max Siolun detailed every bit of the history right from 1960 to 1999 including everything about Abiola, IBB and Abacha.
It's in bookshops across the country and I can also help get for anyone who wishes.
History should return to our school.
Comrade, I really want to appreciate you for your apt memory and uncensored delivery of history!
Please for all the information to remain evergreen, i will suggest you consider writing a book on this and more!
Kudos 🎉.
Excellent account of momentous historical events around MKO. The only bit missing are; 1. A recognition of the fact that MKO's famed philanthropic works was a carefully orchestrated deliberate political strategy and long-play campaigning aka buying of electoral support through the back door. Of course we know he did that in order to woo northerners and earn their trust 2. Nothing was said about the numerous spiritual prophecies that were given to MKO that presidency of NGR wasn't in his destiny; even after he sent 200 Alfas to Saudi Arabia to pray for his destiny to be reversed. 3. It could be argued that MKO eventual fate was a boomerang for the many political and financial atrocities he committed e.g. betraying Chief Awolowo, financing the coup that deposed Buhari-Idiagbon's Govt and many more.
Unfortunately Chief Awolowo and MKO Abiola suffered the same fate in the hands of the northern elites. Awolowo supported the north and gave them the blueprint to win the Nigeria’s civil war, but he was later betrayed by the north. They made sure he never became Nigeria’s president
Abiola fraternized with the north, but he was as well betrayed by them and even was killed
Good story pls put it in book,This is the history of MKO
I like your programme sir is very insightful
God bless you Comrade Dan
If this account is accurate and Abiola was so involved with America, then God saved us
Thank you Comrade Dam,, I'm waiting to buy your book sir
True talk Comrade Dan ❤❤❤
This man was loaded.
His first job was Barclays Bank in Ibadan.
But Professor Soyinka finished secondary school from Government College Ibadan
Abiola was OBJs 1 year senior, never mates in BBHS.
Very true. My late father was senior to all of them at the same school.
GOD bless you all , this is very informative 🙏
So informative. I am more enlightened.
Superb
Acaletu is a lovely pprogram
@agbaletutv. Kindly bring back Comrade Dan.
Pls we need part two of this program
Baba know how to sing
Adisa Shaffi, he sing when he was youn, he has a musical band then...To the extent that when he and his musical group go to an event instead of spraying them money, they will give them food and Abiola would take the food home 🏡 to his parents and junior ones for eating...In fact the man is a definition of poverty, may his soul continue rest with the Almighty Allah
Igba akoko ati ikehin ti mo dibo ni Naijiria ni ibo June 12 yen. Ko si madaru abi ija kankan nibi ti a to si lati dibo. Ko si ibo ti o dabi ibo yen. Even paapaa ibo 1983 ko dabi e.
comrade dan is compendium of history as far the issue discussed is concerned, almost exact things he narradated can be found in the :tales of june by professor omo omoruyi. my advice is that the comrade should write a book on all these accounts, it will enrish the knowledge base of students of history, political science and general studies.
Point of correction.It was Oke Egunya not Oke saje.BBHS moved from Egunya later to Alabama ,now BBHS Oke saje.
How can mike Adenuga who is no 4 in Africa and even no 2 in Nigeria be no 2 in Ogun state???
Pls include MKO manifesto in the book
I just can't understand...why some programme hosts are on their cell phone...while on programme...it is disrespectful to your viewers.
Chai, he hate to hear the truth.
😔😭🙏😖🙏😔
Where can I get the record of Baba Ebenezer obey woman hood.
Kudos to the interviewee. He is so knowledgeable. I didn’t get his name though. Is it Comrade Jam? Please let’s get the right spelling. Thank you
Durojaiye Owoaje Comrade Dam...Meaning Damilola
Comrade Dada Adebayo Mohamed is the name
27:38 - The Naira was stronger than the dollar at this time.. :) In dollars ko, in Naira ni.
On DRC, the issue predated abiola, the ousting of Mobutu has nothing to do with abiola, Nelson Mandela persuade Mobutu to retirement,
Laurent Kabila has been on Mobutu neck since when he was 26yrs old, he was part of the youth then that formed a guerilla warfare against Mobutu for his role in the killing of Lumumba, USA and UN presence in the Congo has long been established before abiola....I don't see him playing any significant role with the Congo context.....Congo history is convoluted and pathetic, more pathetic that it started only 9 days after its independence and persist today .....more than 6 decades after
Can this man defend all these things in the law court. You don't speak with so much impunity of something you were not part of.
Impunity bawo. Although young, he was part of the later part of the process. An eye witness called in and vetted his version to be correct.
Abiola wasn’t a clean man at all
He certainly wasn't.
Yah, they are trying to cover the ugly side and over emphasize the good side. It is very important to tell a complete story and not one sided. We loved MKO, we voted for him but he was part of the reason Nigeria is what it is today.
Dele Adeyanju you are a young man and your programme is very educative but please as a yoruba man your culture demands you should respect your elders I observe you always call the elderly ones by their first name and doesn't care to respect them, most of this people last born are older than you. Please make a change
He is a journalist and the ONLY way to address a person is by his achievements, like Dr, prof, Lawyer Etc, Age has NOTHING to do with respect...
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Yorubaaaa, no who that help 😂😂😂😂😂
This suppose to be a Yoruba programme, anchored by a Yoruba man, we’re known to be suckers for respect dead or alive, I hate the fact that this people are talking or referring to MKO and others like thr news paper men or next door Nabour, at-least put chief or abbreviate it, cringey!
Hello this man story is not right please stop all this wrong information if don't know something go and find out the truth i don't know where you get your story from Mr Man lori iro 😮
What part isn't right?
@@nhaezer5121to be honest, quite a lot of part is untrue and not actually possible diplomatically.. he’s quite a good story teller though
