Nigerian Flag Designer, Taiwo Akinkumi Dies

The labour of our heroes past, shall never be in vain!
The man who designed the Nigerian flag, Taiwo Akinkumi is dead!
A post by his son, Akinkumi Samuel on facebook confirmed this.
Pa Akinkumi, 84 designed the Nigerian green-white-green flag after winning a competition where his design was approved.
In an interview with papermacheonline a while ago in his home in Ibadan, the man who graduated from Norwood Technical College, London confirmed he was suffering from mental illness.
When asked what he felt the government should do to assist him, he mumbled ‘anything’ while he regretted he relied solely on survival from his wife and young children.
Akinkunmi was born in Ibadan. He lived with his father until he was 8 years old before he relocated to the Northern part of Nigeria. He began his early education in the North. After his father’s retirement, he came down to the West and was re-enrolled at Baptist Day School, Idi-Ikan in Ibadan. He finished from Baptist Day School Idi-kan in 1949 and proceeded to Ibadan Grammar School (IGS) in 1950 where he enjoyed a very good education.
He left IGS in 1955 and took an appointment as an agriculturist at the Western Region Secretariat in Ibadan as a civil servant. He would then work some years before gaining admission to the Norwood Technical College in London where he studied electrical engineering. While studying there, he designed the Nigerian Flag. He returned to Nigeria in 1963 and went back to the agricultural department at the secretariat in Ibadan to continue where he stopped. He worked as a civil servant until 1994 and retired as Assistant Superintendent of Agriculture. He was honoured with Officer of the order of Federal Republic (OFR) and honorary life presidential adviser on 29 September 2014 at the Conference Centre Abuja.
