The reason why Nigeria has not developed and may never be is because we started wrongly. Strict discipline was never required from those who served us. Even the Singapore man said it looking at the way the man appeared to him expensive. It is still like that till today with President living lavishly and legislators collecting N26million per month and telling lies they are collecting N1million hiding a whopping N25million monthly Allowance. You said where are the loot, where were you when the family took themselves to court on sharing of choicest properties in Lagos? If somebody paid you to white wash history, say you no grow reach.
The man was amongst the most richest men in Nigeria. Was the richest man of his time. He was the biggest in the rubber industry a leader. Don't understand why people tell his life story upside down? The first individual to control rubber in Africa.
He was the one Azikiwe would run to - to bail NCNC out when they were in financial difficulty. Okotie-Eboh bank rolled the party from his personal finances. Unfortunately, salacious rumours are preferred to facts. People have forgotten that both Azikiwe and Awolowo have proven cases of corruption against them. Instead, they choose to focus on beer parlour rumours about Okotie-Eboh. Okotie-Eboh was a hero and a lion, he was told about the coup 2 days before it happened by the British. He refused to run away, he said 'if I die, I die for Nigeria'.
😅😅😅😅 lies... He was the first looter of Nigeria, that is why he was killed, history is not fact, but only according to whose HIS STORY U read or listen to, go and check the coffers of Nigeria and the way he took money.. He is probably the God father of looting....
@adeadetunji4342 Please go and listen to Fela's song ITT. Listen carefully to the names he calls. Separate to this, also research the following: 1943 Ahmadu Bello corruption case, Awolowo 1962 corruption case, Azikiwe corruption case. While you are at it, also research Operation Feed the Nation or Petroleum Trust Fund PTF. If you find any evidence of Okotie-Eboh corruption, please come back and tell us.
Good job. But AG is Action Group, not Action Congress. Your pronunciation of Delta names are not good, you should have sought help with Delta people before recording, it's part of research. Even the name Akinjide was wrongly pronounced, a Yoruba person would have helped you.
The same types of people crying corruption today were the same types of people crying corruption then and killed him and poor Prime Minister Tarawa Balewa.

@@afriversehistoric Thank you for your reply. And trust me I understand your own views… but The January 1966 Boys were revolutionist… Their plans was to overtake the Government and then release Awolowo from prison, then make him the President… See, Tafa, Bello and Co were really bad eggs… I’m not justifying their deaths.

@@adekunleadesoye7882 Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate 🙂 However, i have no definitive conclusions on Okotie Eboh.
Thank you for this factual insight. This was our problem then and now.
None of our fire nation builders were saints. They were all corrupt.
No smoke without fire; but good exercise at sanitizing history.....
Really! Na wa oo
The man was amongst the most richest men in Nigeria.
Was the richest man of his time.
He was the biggest in the rubber industry a leader.
Don't understand why people tell his life story upside down?
The first individual to control rubber in Africa.
May is soul rest in peace

Many Nigerians speak English but don't really understand it. I wish we could speak everyone's language so people will not have misunderstandings
@faxroom3219 We have to see the bigger picture, between 1965 and 1966 there were 11 coups across black Africa with 7 alone in 1966. Ask yourself why?
