Who Discovered River Niger? by MisterMan(m): 6:30pm On Sep 20, 2007 |
The teacher walks in. Ko-ko-ko-ko. The class monitor knocks on the desk. All stand, greet. The class monitor says. All the pupils stand. Goooooood morning sir. We are happy to see you. God bless you and your family Amen Good Morning children. Sit down. He goes to the board. CIVICS He wrote Who discovered River Niger? Mungo Park Who really discovered River Niger? We were taught while we were in primary school that Mungo Park 'discovered' River Niger. But is that really true? When you say somebody 'discover' something, he brought it to the knowledge of people and those people did not know the existence of that thing. It is like somebody telling me that the stream where my mother and grandmother fetched was 'discovered' yesterday by somebody resident in another village about 500 kilometers away. So those people in New Bussa, Lokoja, Jebba who fetched, cooked and washed from the river did not know that the river exists before Mungo Park came. What do you think?. |
