Old Eastern Nigeria Map On British £10. by chrisxxx(m): 4:22pm On Nov 21, 2014 |
I was amazed when gazing at £10 note issued by Clydesdale Bank Glasgow Scotland UK to discover a section of Nigerian territory on this money. I was wondering how could this be until I turned the overleaf only to see Mary Selessor on same note. This lady stopped the killing of twins particularly in the areas shown on the map. I wonder if the federal govt has recognised her.

They'd rather recognize coup plotters. This woman did good thing for us, how many more kids would have perished if she hadn't stopped that crime then? At least, what's the big deal in having her face on our note? Elizabeth's face graced the Canadian Dollar. 1 Like |

She a Presbyterian, so many Presbyterian churches and schools was named after her. In fact we celebrated her on the 16th of November throughout the country. |

It's of no significance to me having our map o'er there. She is zealous, yes we know! She stopped an evil cause, then? I don't know why I always have this feeling ........... wen I see tins lyk this(the part omitted to prevent uproar). Thank God for the live she lead though. If not, d over a million lifes wasted during the Biafran war would have anihiliated the entire Igbo, and that man from otuoke without sandals' lineage might have been wiped off. Thanks to that we have an easy to manipulate and power-thirsty Jona walking on the part of making 'things fall apart'! |

we go recognize her for 5000 naira note. |
Re: Old Eastern Nigeria Map On British £10. by Nobody: 10:48am On Nov 22, 2014 |
barackodam:That is the issue, you and fr3do don't grasp. She came earlier and saved much more lives. How many lives would have been lost if someone stopped the killing long after she died? Do you even have sympathy for a single human lives not to mention hundred ![]() |
