ABA WOMEN's REVOLT OF 1929

Please enjoy this beautiful narration of one of the most significant historical events in our dear country: Strength of A Woman: The Story of Aba Women's War By Olanrewaju Onigegewura When Tai Solarin said in his memoirs that a child’s first teacher ought to be a pretty lady, the iconoclastic educator must have had Onigegewura in mind. Of all the teachers who taught me in primary school, Miss Sola Adefarakan made the greatest impression on my young mind. It was in her class that I read my first full-length Yoruba novel, Ajítòní, as well as my first English prose, The Man Without A Face.  It was also in her class that I learnt about Aba Women Riot of 1929.

Speaking on the need for opening doors to new members, he said this was imperative to ensure that they were not disadvantaged in any way, "just as it is also imperative that the loyalty, sacrifices, commitment and dedication of those who stuck with the party through thick and thin were not denigrated in any way.
