Shut up, you dunce.

Nigeria then was a feeding tap to the British treasury, which, in case your dumb head doesn't realise, was the whole reason for colonialism in the first place - to LOOT your resources and enrich the colonist's homeland.

That is why at the time this picture was taken, there wasn't a single university or power plant in Nigeria, despite the British having ruled for half a century, while extracting and exporting your resources.

It was why literacy was under 10% (compared to 70% today courtesy of black rule and investment in public education.).

So your ''relevance'' then was as a slave nation feeding Britain and nothing else.

Mumu generation. Don't go and learn your history.




Was all the insult necerssary? Yes you may be right with your explainations but you could have lectured that individual without all the insults. The insult brings your level of IQ a tard lower. grin
All your fine write ups above and you ruined it with jargonised insults.

Now, start insulting me. tongue

Prince philip can go to hell now, that is if hell exists.


The british mornach murdered millions of Indians, Africans and people of other nations, forcefully took their lands, women and made their men work for the british and their women as maids in their own countries during the british empire.


The mornachs have being living the life of luxury at other poor countries expense, no member of the mornachs have done a day of work, just spending tax payers money. The mornach have assasinated so many people including princess of wales, just to stay in power for more than 60 years now The queen own 750 or more empty houses and castles while people live on the streets of london homeless. The queen rides around in gold carts and drives series of expensive Range Rovers while people are hungry and struggling to pay their heating, gas, water, TV license, electricity and tax bills.
The queen still rules some countries in some part of the world.
I bet prince philip thought he will live forever, his wife (cousin) elizabeth should follow him soon.

Some of us cannot wait to get rid of the so called british mornarchy as soon as possible.

They are a massive drain and liability on us british tax payers.

The british are the people who put Nigeria in the mess they she is now. Although the british may have given Nigeria independence the british still rules Nigeria, hence Nigerian so called president runs Nigeria from london England.

The british masterminded the murder of millions of innocent Biafran children, men and women through starvations in support of Nigeria..

For those of you Biafrans wanting to separate from Nigeria, well.. you are never going to separate from Nigeria until the british says so. They are the ones who will give the go ahead.

And how many universities and power plant were built by Nigerians before their arrival? At least people were in existence in that region for many centuries before the arrival of the British though not named as Nigeria. We should stop passing blame to the British and take responsibility for the the mishaps we had and still going through.

Very true. The existing primary and secondary schools then were built by the missionaries. The British government has been and is still exploitative.

Outside the country the notable people are known as Nigerian and are not by individual tribe

But that is different case for benins, once you identify as benin, they definitely will trace you to the former empire before the present country Nigeria, are artworks are still globally talked on, a counyry and was renamed after the former empire, movies showcase benin artwork and not Nigeria artwork


Whatsoever is of yoruba today is as a result of Nigeria, so outside the country they are seeing as Nigerians not yorubas....

So your fucking notable people are only recognized as Nigerians which is a plus to every Nigerian, but a different scenes for a benin man


And yes just as the yorubas have notable people in the United states so as we edos have, only thst your rat population makes it look you guys have more notable people
