Becomerich, your facts are wrong. The Yoruba people were never part of Benin, and would never be.

After researching about the early 90's Nigeria, I have come to a conclusion that Lord Lugard should have never amalgamated the North and South. What he should have done was :
1 - Colonized the North(including the south east states like lagos) in its entirety and given them a solid foundation with their minerals.
2 - Colonized the South (Niger Delta excluding Abia) .

Lord Lugard failed by joining the both regions, we can all see how his pet project turned out to be. Nigeria is a failure and should split.

This becomerich dissing becomerich.Attention seeking can not come any worse.

I am not Ibo. I am not looking for attention. This is just a Nigerian forum

I'm confused o. This Mr Barzini behaves like BCR, but I strongly doubt BCR can write well like this. Could it have been that that Batu English is deliberate? Or Mr Barzini is not BCR?
The jury is out
