Explicaţie
The subject involves three different people: Olu, Akpan, and Ovbiagele. The verb "make" is plural, so the noun should also be plural to agree with the subject. Since each person may have their own views, we're referring to their individual philosophies, which collectively appear similar enough for people to think they belong to the same school of thought.
