Mike, just sounded worse than the talk and no action guys... At least he and his likes who are but few have the effantry n guts to speak to the dogs killing this nation... I dare you to watch more about him... And bros, what action are you taking?
So you just sit on your keister and wait for "actions" from the speaker. Did he bring you into this world, or are you still a baby that has to be spoon-fed? The speaker's purpose is to ginger you into taking the "action" as a responsible adult, a rational human being. The job of a leader is to SHOW THE WAY, not to sweep your front yard for you or otherwise do for you those things you ought to do for yourself.,'nuff said.
So what action did you want him to take, is he a government or public official? His was a motivational talk to have your likes "get with it" and elect credible leaders, instead of rulers whose only interest is to get their hands on the public till. He claimed Awolowo was not a Yoruba but a "Nigerian" (first). Well that's quite debatable as a sampling of the concerted opinions of non-Yorubas, particularly Igbos, might be able to attest to. There's absolutely no doubt that he was great for the Yorubas, and I'm not stating this as a minus on his character and legacy. 'nuff said.
Thanks for the upload of this video, but am very sure this man talked for more than 11 mins. Where is the rest of the video? If you dont agree with his speech, do not upload it. Too much editing make you loose ur credibility.
Awo propose Nuclear Power, the British reject it, says we are not ready. The First Television Station in Africa was established in Yoruba Land. Unitary System is the problem. Regional Government or Oduduwa Republic is the solution. Yoruba Wake the hell up!
What do you mean talk is cheap? Talk is not cheap but senseless comment is cheap. If what he's saying is of no value he won't be invited to speak and this video is not a campaign speech so understand and focus on his message. There are lots of people who gained insight at that moment and more people will still watch him, you don't have to understand him but be respectful of people who may need that information or who can connect with what he's saying. Why do people derive joy in putting others down? Even if you don't like him make a reasonable comment. People that says that talk is cheap most of the time has nothing meaningful to say than to make nonsense of what someone is saying. Next time give reasons when you make statement like "talk is cheap" because it is a cheap comment anybody can make.
aneke68 Why are you crying more than the bereaved, You seem to me like a dumb fanatic that can’t put simple tenses together, so I wouldn’t waste my time on you.
He made this speech in 2014 and this has nothing to do with his political ambition. I am sorry for your poor empty mind! you can listen to learn something but bitterness will not let you to understand the simple message he shared. Your comment is thoughtless and not quite responsive, as this is a persuasive speech based on good values he want people to embrace.
Only a naive, ineffective person thinks talk is so cheap that anyone who has the power to move people with his words into right action should remain quiet. This kind of talk is not cheap. Some people are just too intellectually bankrupt to afford understanding.
@@mrbennett well said! They're too big to learn and appreciate anything of value. Proud people will always complain about everything and criticize others in order to feel good. One may not like or know him but if the message is of a good purpose one need to respect that. It's not cheap because it has values. I hope we will start to value good information, this can help anyone at anytime. Stay blessed Emmanuel ✌
Please my people let's be honest and sincere with ourselve . Because there is no harm in choosing of role model or a figure mentor if yes ???? all the insults on Chief Obafemi Awolowo. And to does people saying that awolowo killed igbo's children they should have a rethink, in anything suchlike war anything can happen just to save and win the war , that doesn't mean you are a criminal. Secondly Awolowo will not wait until BIAFRA army enter into YORUBA territories before looking for solutions. However, and how come my igbo bro 's calling Awolowo a traitor after many of them had already enjoyed free education that was created by Awolowo's party 'AG, in western region. More so he also created first Television station in Nigeria and first in Africa.and so many more things that non of his contemporary premier of any other three regions in Nigeria can't achieved. It's a pity that many of us failed to be a good student of history yet many of us refused to search for piece, love and unity of this country. Late chief senator Emeka Ojukwu said and I quote, Chief Obafemi Awolowo was the best president Nigeria never had. Precisely in 1987 in ikene in Nigeria, home town of Awolowo And Chief Ninamdi Azikiwe was very very alive by that time, and my question is why Ojukwu not decided to say that in honour of his late bro from same Igbo land .
Ojukwu's epitaph on Awolowo: "The best president Nigeria never had" is not a compliment. It is a two-edged word. It is more of an indictment than a compliment. You need to interrogate why Awolowo became the best president Nigeria never had.
Yes, because he was the Premier of Western Region. When he campaigned in the East to be President, they said No, the prefer Shagari. So you are right, he can only govern the interests of where he has political power.
@@Foresythe I think you're being a bit intellectually mischievous, and I'm sure you knew better! @Uche Opara was not indicting Mr Awolowo's tenure as Western Region premiere, but his actions and/or inactions when he had national constituency (as Federal Commissioner for Finance) lent credence to Mr Opara's view. As I wont to say, if I were Yoruba I would also worship Awolowo as he almost singlehandedly put them at the economic commanding heights of the geographical space called "Nigeria". I'm curious, by the way, as to the correlation of your name with that of the great Biafra lover the British journalist Frederick Forsyth. Are you for real, or was that an expensive prank by you? 'nuff said.
@@emekaezeokoli1287 No pranks here. I am sure you can relate to my comment. He lost elections in the Eastern region and states. The SE’s preference for Northern coalition and candidates remains a topic for extensive research. You are right about Awolowo who believe the Yorubas as a nation and should be governed as such with its interests at the fore. It is where you have and hold political power that you can position it for development.
@@emekaezeokoli1287 What did he do wrong and federal commissioner, he's principled aim was to keep Nigeria one and he had good reasons for that aim...the East were about to go about things the wrong way and a war was the only solution.
What’s wrong with that. He was Premier of Western Region and not any other region or Nigeria at large. If every leader loved their people as Awolowo loved his people, Nigeria would be a better nation today. Don’t berate Awolowo for loving his people. Your attack should be at those who failed their people.
Awolowo is your role model? Is this not same Awolowo who engineered the use of hunger as a war weapon and killed many Biafran children through starvation? Same awolowo who further impoverished Biafrians after the war through some dubious fiscal strategy? ...Abeg...go sidon joo...
@@kingofthehill2891 You think Awolowo dealt with us? In rhe short run. yes, But in the long run, he actually dealth with his Yoruba ethnic group - ironically his sole life ambition of becoming president. By aligning with the Arewa North in the Nigeria-Baifra War and providing the intellectual and brainpower in the prosecution of the northern-led war.Awolowo constructed, politically, the foundation of Hausa/Fulani political domination of Nigeria and enslavement of the non-Hausa-Fulani ethnic nationalities.
Great speech from Fela Durotoye
I love this man 👏👏👏❤🇳🇬
Omoyele Sowore is our president. #takeitback#
Nigerians can talk talk talk...no actions
Mike Agbeniyi Sr. There is power in the tongue. You can use it to build or destroyed, encourage or discourage.
Mike Agbeniyi Sr. EXACTLY!
Mike Agbeniyi Sr. At least he's making sense. We're all Nigerians Let all build our Nation. Great teachings is work too better than grumbling.

But your Awolowo was part of the government - Gowon administration - that imposed unitary system on Nigeria
Incorrect TOPIC.. should be corrected
Esohe Idogun lol don’t worry it’s Sahara, naa their way.
I can’t just see this guy become President, he doesn’t have what it takes. #Talk is cheap.
