Could the below be why he was promoted above his head, by the British mercenary called Major (Lord) Lugard?

Please read:





A Mercenary, Major Lugard (Later Lord Lugard), formed a "Mercenary Army of Northerners" and called it Nigerian Army!
he then used that Mercenary Army to loot, plunder and Colonise Southerners
, to form a Slave Country called Nigeria.

I hail o.

What a read!

That is not true Wellington Duke Umoh Bassey of Calabar who was commissioned as an Officer in the Royal West African Frontier Force in 1944

By 1948 he was a Captain

Below is a copy of the 16th of April 1954 London Gazette Confirming his date of Commission

over it, he's no more a Nigerian, he's a citizen of UK,lol. I am a Nigerian descent and served in the U.S Military and it was the best decision of my life, I served 6 years and working for the dept. of defense as a civilian now. Nigeria has nothing to offer to any citizen not in the government.
