Nigerian elderstateman and foremost nationalist, Anthony Eromosele Enahoro, died yesterday December 15, 2010 in Benin, Edo state at the age of 87. Pa Enahoro was also a journalist and respected democracy activist.
A few weeks ago, he fell ill and was thought to have died at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital in Benin according to family sources. He survived the ordeal with a serious stroke that left him paralyzed before he finally died early yesterday.
Its a pity that the great man has not much of a good repor to give to his compatroits who had gone ahead of him. How sweet would it have been if Nigeria has become there dream before his depaeture and he has great report to give to Awo, Zik, Balewa and the rest.
ReplyDeleteWe however take refuge in the fact that he tried his best.
A true patriot who stayed true to the cause till the end.

6) Fought for Parliamentary democracy
7) Fought for the Enahoro name and family
Also, he could charm birds from a tree with his eloquence and mastery of English language.
A befitting legacy for this great man would be an immediate convocation of
SOVEREIGN NATIONAL CONFERENCE.
