As the world marks Zik’s 119th posthumous birthday today, tribute must be paid to an iconic tall image who left an indelible mark in the nation’s sands of time. Dr. Azikiwe’s life and contributions as a journalist, politician and statesman are not only worthy of celebration, but the story about Zik should be religiously told and transferred to generations unborn, in remembrance of a Great Icon.
