Overview"Yoruba shines like bright coals of fire at the night! Yoruba billows like sea waves! Yoruba are born princes and princesses. It's high time that Yorubas around the world recognize their worth and live up to their full potentials. Yoruba is the prime mover for Nigeria's Independence. As soon as Western Region became self-governing in 156, Awolowo, a ""man with a plan,"" got into action. Among his towering achievements was the installation of a television station, on 31 October 1959, which was the FIRST IN AFRICA: -ahead of Egypt by one year.-ahead of Ghana by six years!-ahead of South Africa by 17 years!-ahead of New Zealand by one year.-behind Australia, Austria, Spain, and Sweden by only three years! Free education was started in Yorubaland in 1953, long before the universal basic education program of UNICEF. Samuel Ajayi Crowther was the first African Anglican bishop of West Africa. Professor Wole Soyinka is the first Noble Laureate in Africa. There are many other FIRSTS among Yoruba. This book is a rousing call for Yoruba to regain their past glories and move on to greater heights. Read it and pass the message to 50 million Yoruba people around the world."
