As he puts his hands to teacher Mrs MokhudiÕs throat he feels the vibrations that cause her to speak. Solemnly, he learns the first step in breaking his silence. Soon he too may be able to make sounds by following the pattern of those muscle contractions. Soon, too he will find a new way of life. This is the story of courage. Unusual human courage mixed with plain, unmitigated Bad Luck. ItÕs the story of 123 boys and girls, some of them deaf, dumb and blind, all fighting nigh and day to make life better than death. They stay in their boarding school-cum home at Kutlwanong in Roodepoort, less than 20 miles from Johannesburg. Yes, that is the story of Kutlwanong. Sounds grim.

It was a very successful adventure in co-operation,Ó he said. In May 1962 a crisis flared in the Western Region. Then in stepped Dr Moses Majekodunmi, doctor and scientist. His job as administrator was to replace chaos with order. His chief weapons were a cool brain and courage. Since 1941, he has been a very well-known man. That he was appointed a senator some few years ago by the government of the federation did not in itself take the scientist from science to politics. It was subsequently announced that Dr Majekodunmi the senator, would also be Dr Majekodunmi, the federal minister of health. ( Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA)

Description: . NIGED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:JUN 1967 Ð The Last Salute To A Soldier Of Honour Ð Pa Isaiah Fajuyi (94) say his son Francis Adekunle Fajuyi, was so considerate. Pa Isaiah Fajuyi added his testimony: ÒAs you know, I am nearly 95 years old and I never like to miss my attendance at the church. A few weeks before his death, Adekunle came home and noticed that I usually walked the two miles from my house to the church every morning. He was very disturbed about this and he told me to send his immediate brother, Sunday, to him when he finished his tour and he would send me a small second-hand car. Two weeks, later, I sent Sunday to him. When Sunday arrived in Ibadan the conference of obas and emirs was just beginning and Adekunle asked his brother to wait until the meeting was over. That boy was there when he was killed. I never got the car. I never saw him again.Ó (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA)

ÒEmirs of Northern Nigeria have always operated within a democratic framework. What many people did not see clearly was that their form of democracy was more by consultation and by consensus. Present day demand is for the democracy of the secret ballot. The people want to have more say about how they are governed. This doesnÕt mean that the emirs no longer have important functions. The emirs should adapt their institution to fit the new order. Even with the power passing on to the masses, the emirs can still symbolize that power, representing the collective power of the people.Ó (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA)

Description: NIGED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:DEC 1967 Ð Why The War Broke Out? Ð AfricaÕs youngest head of state, Major-General Yakubu Gowon, is fighting hard to keep total Nigerian unity. Many people thought that Major-General Gowon, in view of the strained relations between the North and the Ibos, would seek to consolidate a northern hold on the rest of the country. Others secretly feared that the young general was out to launch himself on a political career. But by the creation of twelve states in the federation (even when it was known that many northern leaders were opposed to it), Major-General Yakubu Gowon has disabused the minds of people. His appointment of a federal executive council embracing, undiscredited civilians as well as inclusion of civilians in his war cabinet is enough evidence that Yakubu Gowon did not set out ambitiously to establish a military dictatorship.

ÒBesides the Jews, probably no other linguistic group has suffered so much persecution in history as the Ibo have been obliged to endure in Nigeria.Ó This statement was made by President Nnamdi Azikiwe in 1964. It brought into the open the truth of tribal discrimination in Nigeria. The anti-Ibo feeling that swept through the federation received its main kick from the publication of the 1963 census, its acceptance by the governments of Northern and Western Nigeria and its rejection by both the government and the Ibos of Eastern Nigeria. Minor issues such as the sharing of board appointments between the Eastern and Western members of the NCNC Ð have also gone into fanning its embers. (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA

One curious thing about the whole show was that I had the majority of the partyÕs leaders on my side. I did not favour a national government to the exclusion of the NCNC. By national government then I meant, and still mean, an all-party government. Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, the Are Ona Kakanfo (field marshal) of Yorubaland, premier of Western Nigeria and leader of the Nigerian National Democratic Party, represents many things to many people. Some people see him as an arch-tribalist and an opportunist, some idolize him as the greatest leader and saviour of the Yorubas, a patriot and a true apostle of Nigerian unity. To others he is simply a wonder, a political enigma. (Photograph by Drum Photographer ©BAHA)

Description: DM2008072409:NIGED:SOCIAL:WITCHCRAFT:MAY 1964 The Confession of a witch For 30 Years she practiced evil witchcraft. She flew in the night like a terrible bird, and brought death to 30 people. These are the claims of Salamo Fariyike, who confesses her past to Dapo Daramola. Thirty years ago, at the age of 17, a young girl was offered what appeared to her to be an ordinary delicious akara ball for breakfast by her dying grandmother. The girl gratefully munched the akara and thanked granny for her kindness. But far from being the ordinary delicacy which the innocent girl thought it was, she claims that akara ball turned her life upside down transforming her overnight from a pretty, kind-hearted, lovable girl to vicious, cruel, blood-sucking witch.

Description: DM2008071810:EAED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:NOV 1964 - Mayanja: Why I Quit - Mayanja, now practising law again, pictured during his political days with Basil Bataringaya, leader of the opposition Democractic Party. Looking back at Abu Mayanja's career one cannot help feeling slightly disappointed. He has never quite fulfilled the promise. He says this is because he was unable to get out of Buganda politics into a national arena. Is one of the secret reasons for his resignation a desire to do just this? Does he want to find a way into central goverment? And if he tries will he not suffer precisely the same fate as John Kakonge? The future alone can answer these questions.

Bob Astles has held one of the most dangerous jobs in the world for the last eight years. He has been an advisor and confidant to Ugandan dictator Idi Amin throughout his bloodthirsty and chaotic rule. Bob Astles, a Briton by birth, is now a naturalised Ugandan. During the Obote regime of the 1960s, Astles was an intelligence officer and it was he and Akena Adoko who founded the state Research Bureau in the early 1970s, before President Obote was overthrown. When Idi Amin took over in 1971, Bob Astles remained behind although he seemed to be likely candidate to be killed by Amin. But he convinced Amin that he knew intelligence work. He pleased Amin by telling him that the first people to be dealt with were those who were involved in investigating Brigadier Okoya's death. He knew them all since Astles, together with the CID, was investigating the case. It was easy fo
