Who among the following could be described as the founding father of Nigeria nationalism?

Answer Details
Herbert Macaulay is widely regarded as the founding father of Nigerian nationalism. He was one of the first Nigerians to openly criticize British colonialism and advocate for Nigerian self-rule. He founded the Nigerian National Democratic Party in 1923, which was the first Nigerian political party, and used it to push for greater representation of Nigerians in colonial governance. Macaulay's activism and leadership laid the foundation for the emergence of later Nigerian nationalists, including Nnamdi Azikiwe, Ahmadu Bello, and Obafemi Awolowo.
