Let's assume Igbos are the only people involved in slave trade.

This is still an unresolved argument. Who brought Christianity to Nigeria? The same set of people that bought our forefathers as slaves and tied them with chains or another set of people. This needs to be clarified because slave traders and oppressors cannot be the same people who brought the so called Salvation in Christ. You cannot serve both God and Lucifer at the same time because you cannot be a Catholic Priest and a Sango Priest at the same time.

In period of slavery, any conspiracy, resistance or rebellion against the slave masters is punishable by death. Estimated half a million Igbo's died of their rebellious resistance as Igbo man does not easily submit to slavery. Olauda equano was a popular slave Igbo novelist who eventually bought his freedom and later settle in England. He became the best selling author in england after publishing his book on slavery, in his write up, he captures the slavery in Igbo land.

We had all those things before their arrival.

Mobile phones, they call it Apeta in my local language.. A prepared water in a pot with some incantations, whoever they want to see will appear on the water face while they will pass their message.

Planes, When my Edo people have been flying without interference of international space station

Yes, they are all related to this topics.. If not for Africans backward thinking, we could have turned those things to what we called technology today.. Abi what's blackbox inside a plane..

The medicine we are taking today is combination of different leaves root..

Same leaves our forefather have been combining together to make charm.. Only if you know the right combo

U would have converted them into technology??
Incase I’m not getting you well, just to be sure, you are still talking about your water pot and you flying edo people right?? As in .....you would have converted them to technology and commercialize them for people to use??

And you are even asking me what’s black box in a plane...are u insinuating a black box is one of ur water pot or edo people?? Cos I’m not really getting what you are basing these claim of urs on...
You even admitted as a black Man, U have backward thinking, yet you are trying to fit black man and advance technology in the same statement ...is that not fallacy

Look around you mehnnn... we still kill people claiming it’s for money rituals in the 21st century....we oppress our fellow man by taking all the money meant for development of a nation into our pocket...don’t forget these whites ddnt just come and and forcefully take blacks away...black leaders sold them...they joined them to colonize us here..and u guys are looking for ways to totally blame the whites.....

Yes, all those pot stuffs are what white are using to make technology. Only if Africans could create reasearch institutes for the herbalist in Nigeria.

I intentionally asked about black box because of it's size and how important it is in a plane...

Combination of different matters will give you new thing entirely right, we have those combination of matters also in Africa but we are not using it for development.. Why did whites steal most of our old local gods statues?

I guess Syrian, Afghanistan are also blacks for killing themselves there? Is it not this same Western countries that are sponsporing the proxy war..

Technology and spiritual goes in hand

That is NOTa picture of Ibo men going to Barbados on a slave ship.
The picture is a modern-day photograph as you can see the men have
almost well-combed hair.


Some of the pictures you also uploaded here showing hangings
are well-known photographs taken after 1900 during the days of
the mass lynchings of African-Americans and even a few poor
white people were lynched by whites based on mainly false
accusations in the Deep South of the U.S. and lynchings continued
well into the 1940s!


Some of those pictures were published by Newsweek magazine
in 2004. I still have that particular edition in my personal library.


Hope this helps everyone to understand the source of the
pictures better.

This picture you uploaded is not from "Ebo" landing. It is a very popular
photograph of an African-American man who was lynched in the U.S.
well after 1900. The photograph was used even on post cards and
they were popular spectacles for whites in the Deep South to watch.

Ibos were NOT the only ones on board that slave ship...
and there were other ethnicities on board that
slave ship. There is a false impression that all those
onboard the slave ship were Ebos[Ibos].

I wonder why this did not make the front page.

This is just a tip of the iceberg of what they did to all Africans.

Keep on kissing up to them as your saviors that gave you religion and civilization out of "shithole" countries.

When is the next trip through the deserts, ships or planes?
