Do not weep yet. It does not matter what the 'INTER' and 'INTRA' relationships are: majority with minority and minority on minority, Nigerians big or small, have not learned how to live with themselves.

While Okadigbo may have been in the center of many things, no one should be so disturbed about what he drafted, crafted and or grafted, they have no viable legacy. Ogbunike his home town is no better than what it was some years before Okadigbo was born and after he made his [in]famous entry into national polity.

How can he Okadigbo be credited with citing of Asaba as the capital of Delta when IBB with his inlaws in the town and was heavily worshipped by Sunny Odogwu [inlaw], was instrumental in creating some of Nigeria's ill conceived states?

It is no brainer studying what Okadigbo did politically because it was nothing except the noise and apparent smoke without FIRE. I am sure if the minorities are left on their own they will not do better than their abusive majority. So what is the consolation and hope? I have no answer but TALK of the living and forget the dead. The dead have no powers and no matter the eulogy, the living have the chance of undoing what the dead left behind.

Look forward and not back. and if you want to look backward, Okadigbo's presence in Nigerian politics does not merit study nor serious comment. The man showed up and used all kinds of gimmicks to get where he got but at the end, he was faulted and shamed by the same thing that he thought he was above.

Had Ogbunike benefited in anyway, I would have seen the need to miss the man. But since Ogbunike is still largely the 'CAVE TOWN' it has always been and its people remain one of the marginalized in the scheme of things in Anambra [politically speaking], Okadigbo is better remembered as a flame that came and left without leaving any mark.

The early Ogbunike politician of repute Chief Onwudiwe [though he was trashed/defeated by Onyeama na Eke], did be

No one should weep when politicians of Okadigbo's style pass on in Nigeria. That Nigeria is where it is, what it is, partly because of the machinations of people like Okaidigbo who when they returned from US trumpeted their way into power but did nothing with the people's mandate except ABUSE.

Was Okadigbo not witness to the killing/maiming of innocent political supporters of Emeka Ojukwu and Edwin Onwudiwe when the two clashed at Nkpor junction during 1983 battle for Onitsha senatorial zone election? At the said junction, Jim Nwobodo was traveling with Edwin Onwudiwe [NPP] {an Ogbunike man from the same town as Okadigbo} and Ojukwu was with Okadigbo [NPN] and when they met at the junction fight ensued and many died and got wounded. Sort of what happened in Kano when teargas was used.

Okadigbo never apologized to the families nor accepted responsibility. Those that died at the junction were never compensated nor any investigation conducted. It was swept under the carpet and life went on. Their spirit is still seeking justice.

I do not want to dwell on this subject. Okadigbo came, saw and conquered nothing. He played, refereed, changed the rule, re-wrote the rule but at the end, he WON nothing and may never be remembered for anything politically speaking.

Yes, he is an acclaimed speaker and delivered all the political views, but you have to look at the audience and ask yourself, are these people that can comment?

When more than 60% of those that seat in Nigerian Senate got there by some foul play and basically have no education in the sense of legislative undertaking or understanding, it should not surprise anyone that people like Okadigbo that possess some ability to read and write, are considered genius and very eloquent. They shine when majority do not know what it is they are doing.

It was easy for Okadigbo to have been considered one of the best Nigerian Senate presidents but look at the senate and tell me if a goat with a PhD could not be given such an accolade?

I REST!
