October 1958 - Awolowo Man Of Action - I started the Action Group with seven men. Now millions - Out of nothing but his own determination and talent, Chief Obafemi Awolowo forged for himself an important place in Nigeria's history. He is the poor village boy who made- so good that he became premier of Western Nigeria. He is the tough and tireless politician who says that his first task is to serve his people - a task from which he allows nothing to distract him. It's politics long before pleasure with him. I am a realist in politics. I believe in taking one step at a time. I believe in chewing what I and the people can swallow. - Photograph by Matthew Faji @ BAHA)
