A great people are a great people,aytime anyday.
I keep telling people that when people for no just cause want to put anyperson or a certain people down,don't want them to raise their head in any sphere,go and check it,there's greatness inside that person or people whom the attackers are afraid of.
This is the case of igbos.
And that kind of people that is being put down is where God usually raise the man that will make things right. Eg,Jesus was from nazareth that was constantly put down(john1:46).
I have this strong belief that the leader who will make this nation great again will be of igbo extraction,it may not be the crop of ones we have now. The enemy knows this and thus easily raise people to put igbos down or ridicule their achievements.

It would be wrong to say Nigeria could not afford a Rolls Royce, when an individual could. Was Ojuku Snr rich enough to have a Rolls Royce? Yes! Was Nigeria rich enough to afford a Rolls Royce in 1952? Is that even a valid question?

How much was the car then that any country in the world then could not afford it?

If indeed the car was borrowed by the British government of Nigeria for the visit, then the British government of Nigeria in 1952 refused to buy a car it was not using, just to make their own Queen feel good about herself when the government had other cars fit for purpose.

Very prudent spending by the British.

Obviously, the dude whose statement was quoted isn't too versed in the history of the Kings/Queens of England or of Nigeria to have concluded that a whole Nigeria could not afford a Rolls Royce.

One wonders what then was so economically attractive to the British to have been interested in ruling Nigeria?

However your video did not disprove the claim that the car was for Sir Louis Odumegwu Ojukwu? It is public knowledge that he had a recent Rolls Royce in the market at that time. Same car that his son Emeka was alleged to have test run while schooling at Oxford before it was delivered to him in Nigeria.

Who was the Nigerian Government in 1952 or 1956 when the Queen actually visited? It was the British, and it was their responsibility to provide for their Queen's visit using Nigerian money of course.

The use of the phrase "could not afford" should have been replaced with "did not possess".

Was Nigeria ever too poor in its history not to be able to afford a Rolls Royce or any luxury car that any individual in the world could afford? I don't think that is even a valid question to ask.

Presently the Nigerian Government still doesn't stock Rolls Royce in its presidential fleet.

Does it then mean that Nigeria cannot afford a Rolls Royce that a corrupt NNPC or DPR public servant can afford?

Sir Louis is also Odumegwu. Emeka Ojukwu only has that name as a reference to which Ojukwu he belongs to.

Meaning that Emeka Ojukwu is the son of Sir Louis Odumegwu Ojukwu.

Yes he was a millionaire alright, and some argue he was the richest Nigerian of his time, some say it was Dantata, Lagosians will tell you Da Rocha was the richest. Truth is everyone blows his own trumpet, question is who evaluted the relative wealth of the numerous rich men of that era to come to such conclusion on the wealthiest?
