     Senate President took to his social media few minutes ago to post this photo with the caption ''Today, it was a pleasure to serve as the Chairman of the 7th Zik Lecture Series, held at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State.
The Great Zik was a pioneer of African liberation movements, one of those whose intellectual rigour, vision and mission as well as tenacity helped free Nigeria from the shackles of colonialism, and won us our independence.
Zik did not only move Nigeria, he moved the world. Just the other day, I was reading how, nearly 70 years ago at the British Peace Congress, held in 1949, Chief Azikiwe demanded for Nigeria’s independence; and denounced imperial rule at the seat of imperialism itself.
As we remember Zik today, we must also remind ourselves what we can still do to overcome the challenges of today; and we are inspired to strive for better, and to lift up our beloved country, as Zik once did''.
