It's sad that the only thing I learnt about her in primary school history and current affairs is that she's the first woman to drive a car in Nigeria. A big middle finger to her legacy is to reduce her to Fela's mom and the first woman to drive a car in Nigeria. Thank God her kids took after her. Thanks Historyville.

What did you expect, uh? She fought the British institution and the same British institution drafted your primary school curriculum. And it is that same curriculum they use till date.

@@supersampio even as enlightening ur comment is, it's however an example of what I consider a typical response from Nigeria's misguided middle-class youth. Knowledgeable as they are, their references are all over the place. They lack a"true North," or a purpose for their knowledge. And so, like an unguided missile, they are dangerous. I was giving much deserved credit to a brave black woman, of West African origin. But, yet you felt compelled to blunt her shine just a little bit. And, of all examples to use, the British - who enslaved us, first by selling us. Then bombarding us, and taking the land right under our feet. That's who you want to give credit to, over Mrs Fumnilayo Kuti? How, you probably did not have malicious intent, instead you were just following your programming. The white supremacy programming. Whereby white-is-right. And British-is-better. Find purpose young man/woman, in service of yourself and your community, and by so doing it will be in service of humanity. The British don't need you to advocate for them - they have libraries filled with volumes on their whitewashed exploits. And us...? short youtube videos.

I've been saying and I will continue to say that the black woman is god.Without the black wombman we have nothing and quite frankly are nothing.In Yoruba philosophy/mythology,the only orisha to breach heaven and reach Olodumare-our maker was oshun.This just goes to show you how phenomenal the black woman is.

What are you talking about Oludumare and Oshun? Like it's something to behold! The mythology of a God and demi gods is the greatest scam there is and ever will be? Where were them when the British evil colonials came for their people? We all need to wake up! It's 2021 for crying out loud! By the way, am Yoruba from the Oyo Empire and a great grandson of a true king! And even I know that gods and their ifa priest and priestesses are all fool of shit! Especially with their sacrifices and all. I also lived in our palace is a toddler!
