You said you practised journalism in those days with Awolowo, what kind of journalist was Awolowo?

He had African Press Limited and, as proprietor, he started publishing the Nigerian Tribune. In his earlier years, he was a contributor to Daily Times but his greatest contribution to this profession was the establishment of the Nigerian Tribune which also had other titles on its stable. I must also mention Chief S.L.Akintola as one of my mentors in the profession.

He was a journalist and when I started work with the Daily Service, he was the chairman of the editorial board. Daily Service was the political organ of the Nigerian Youth Movement and IÂ was on the board of the Service at the time I was employed by Mr A. B.

Olumuyiwa who was the editor of the Daily Service. It was from the Daily Service that I moved to Tribune and I had always admired Chief Awolowo when he was general secretary of the Nigerian Youth Movement and a regular columnist but when I moved to the Nigerian Tribune, we became closer and I felt indebted to him for the experience I earned, not only as a journalist ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
