Lord Lugard’s Assessment Of The Hausa, Igbos & The Yorubas by omoharry(f): 10:32pm On Jun 04, 2021 |
Lord Lugard was born in 1858 in Madras, India, as missionary parents. He was a British soldier, also an explorer. He was the first governor of Southern Nigeria, in 1912-1914, the first high commissioner, and last governor of Northern Nigeria. He wrote a letter to Walter H. Lang in 1918, which involves the attitude of the three great tribes in Nigeria, and I quote: After spending the best part of my life in Africa, my goal was to improve the people I was ready to give my life to. “Look what Mr Lugard says about Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba that seems to be.” Hausa; He is a fatalist, spent (spending money excessively) and a gambler. He is seriously immoral and seriously ill. He is a threat to any community he finds, he has no ambitions. Igbo; They are fiercely rebellious without any authority. They are very zealous and very religious. They can be very dangerous to be trusted. Yoruba: I can freely say that Westerners are the lowest, very moral and very unfaithful people. This is best evoked by self-seeking motives of people I met during my stay. Lugard was married to Flora Shaw, a British journalist and writer. She was named Nigeria. 1 Like

Pls don't remind us of this man...his decision to amalgamate the north and south in 1914 has proven terrible till date. Lord Lugard should only be remembered when anyone is looking for a reason to regret. 1 Like |

Why I will choose not to believe this,is because there is a major trait every Igboman has that can not be hidden,and that trait is not mentioned. Every Igboman you see out there be it rich or poor is futuristically purpose driven. An Igboman is little concerned about wat today is talking about,his mind is very fixed on what tomorrow should be. |
