Brother Agidigbi,

 Thank you very much for the observation regarding  Okoro. I quite agree  with you that we need to retrieve everything that is  ours or at least  let the world know how much our ancestors built for
 their future  generation. I think the best way of addressing this  concern is for you  to work from the publicity end, being an editor  yourself. Do a write-up  and publish it in both your newspaper and the  various nationalities net,  including especially Naijanet. I know many bullets  will be thrown at you  by those who would not like what they hear. At that  time, call on Prince
 Iyi-Eweka, Dan, Hilary, Imhonde to come to your  rescue. Remember, do not  call on me as both of us may be crushed together.  You have those that  are very knowledgable in pen on this net and I am  very proud of them.

 Best Regards,

 Kienuwa
