@emaxstatman Elkann needs to step back and hand over the reins . He has good intentions but that's not what's needed. If we don't fix that one foundational issue every other next step will bring us back to an outcome similar to this eventually
Alongside 'the great ponds' , masterful storytelling . Like Marvel comic movies do with the post-credits twist, Mr Amadi had a knack for a final paragraph to finish the story with a flourish.
@DejiAdesogan Maybe. Just maybe. Standing on roads and highways to check and intercept vehicles is the approach they need to reconsider rather than entrench with the right to bear arms?
Between WWI & WWII, Europeans plundered Africa’s resource rich interior to rebuild their own devastated economies
In Nigeria, a 100 year war was brutally interrupted by British artillery, opening the interior for colonial extraction & criminal taxation
By 1929, fierce feminist pioneers Aba women had attempted to burn down British establishments and force out their colonial administrator.
By 1947, Ẹgbá amazon & Lioness of Lisabi, Funmilayo Ransome Kuti had fought the same fight, even closer to Ibadan, at Abeokuta.
In between those eras,
Bowers Tower was built
A century later, #Ibadan people visit this top spot purely for fun & vibes, completely disconnected from the reason it is there in the 1st place.
What can we do differently?

@Moreni_keh The facial contortion. The flexing of sinews to deliver optimal impact. Clearly the premise and the beating are mismatched. This is not about the exams. This is daddy pouring out something else .
@futnostalgico The goal against England, where he dribbles 5 players on his way to goal, gets all the headlines, but he scored an even more impressive one against Belgium a few days later. Almost falling over while beating JM Pfaff. #Mexico86
