Nigerian Politician Chief Obafemi Awolowo Speaking At The Closing Session Of The O.A.U. | Sept. 1968

I want to seize this opportunity to express publicly my very great admiration for the gallant and indomitable people of Algeria for the bravery and selflessness which they have demonstrated throughout the period of their long and historic fight for freedom. The inspiration which their struggles gave to other countries in Africa will never die for a bit. Indeed, their epic struggles will forever constitute an imperishable episode in the annals of man's long and arduous march to liberty. The impressive attendance especially of the heads of state and government at this OAU summit is at once a glowing tribute to the great Algerian people and a measure of the affection which all countries of Africa have for them and their leader. Let us therefore remain united and let us do so resolutely, successfully and unflichingly. Mr. President, I thank you.
