But the man’s profile mentioned nothing about slave trade, since that had been stopped centuries before. Or do you have another back story to share with us that buttresses your slave money assertions? If yes, kindly share
here.



Who told you?
Many African nations including ours continued with slave trade even after the dissolution.
Read more and discover for yourself.

True but you have no proof that that house was built from slave trade.

I was never even referring to the house.
I am only stating the obvious:
More than 90% of our early billionaires were the direct beneficiaries including our own Odumegwu Ojukwu

You are correct.

The Queen had visited Nigeria sometime in 1956, signed some papers with a man named Louis Odumegwu .O, took (borrowed) a three full plane load of money belonging to a Bank called ACB, money was over 500billion pounds at that time, masterminded a war afterwards, during that war, destroyed all documents containing the deal (money borrowed) with the said man, about a year after eliminating the said man. Mr Louis was eliminated by the Queen.

Britain worked against the creation of a country as Biafra. Britain was 70% built with money and resources borrowed from the said nation (Biafra). People must understand, the Queen had committed a lot of atrocities in the past, Biafra which should be the richest in the world today, is currently being kept under the carpet. But In no time, this country would be declared, these money would be returned. These are facts you won’t see anywhere near the google or Wikipedia. The mainstream is controlled by the agendists.

Do you sound this stupid everyday

I simply googled "queen of england in ijebu ode nigeria" and look what I found.

Your biased and prejudiced mind is limiting and poisonous to you and an indication of why you Igbos are such spectacular failures despite the abilities and talent you claim to possess.

Imagine the incredible bias that prevents a sane person even conducting a simple Google search in this age of information overload? Odikwa serious OOO.

Pay visit to odutola street, just a few meters from old national bank. You will behold the edifice as it was, still beautiful and unrivaled since it was built in the 50s.

That was when she came to Nigeria to plead for a loan from Ojukwu's dad who was the richest man in Nigeria then.

That's true. I remember Richard Nixon also came to the Eastern Region then to loan some money from Ojukwu for the US space program. He also got many great Igbo astronauts to take along to help in that. Without yeebos the US wouldn't have been able to send a man to the moon in 1969.

When Queen Elizabeth came to Nigeria In 1960 before the independence, we reveal to you where she passed the night.

When we talk of Nigeria history, the Ijebu people will always be noted as one of the wealthiest Billionaire tribes and there is in another dimension as they’ve been rich right from the pre-colonial era.

One of the Notable billionaire of the old who flexed their dough hard includes Ijebu born businessman and philanthropist, Timothy Adeola Odutola. Before we go into the evergreen edifice this man built, we would love to run a short profile of him.
Chief Timothy Adeola Odutola (1902- 95) Is a prominent businessman and Philanthropist from #Ijebu-Ode.

He attended St Saviours Primary School Italope and Ijebu-Ode Grammar School. He started work in the Colonial Service and later went into business selling damask and fish.

He became a Produce buyer opening large storage units and transportation lines. By 1960 he had created a conglomerate including three factories, a retail franchise, a cattle ranch, a 5,000-acre rubber and palm oil plantation, a sawmill, and export business.

Chief Odutola became so rich that he had a personal relationship with the father of Queen Elizabeth, George VI.

In 1956 during her Official visit to Nigeria, the Queen of England; Queen Elizabeth II was scheduled to visit only Ibadan, Enugu and Kaduna as the regional capitals.

Queen Elizabeth requested her visit be rerouted to include Ijebu-Ode to enable her to visit Chief Timothy Adeola Odutola, the Ogbeni Oja, her father’s friend who usually wined and dined with the royals at Buckingham Palace.

She passed a night at Ijebu-Ode and what a privileged visit indeed. Behold the Adeola Odutola Lodge, Ijebu-Ode (built, 1939).

There's a difference between slave trade and colonialism, these are 2 distant eras. The queen never enslaved any Africans, before everybody becomes an online activist, try to get proper knowledge.

Perhaps Mary Slessor too shouldn't have stopped the killing of twins in Nigeria because African societies were "perfect" undecided

Colonialism was what ushered Africa into the present stage of enlightenment and development. What would we achieve without Christianity and education?

What are you even saying so if we remained like d way we were before their arrival we would cease to exist

Abi na modernization they sweet you....

Africans we rich in their own way but the arrival of the Europeans

They created a society unique to them that really didnt depend on money

If the Europeans really wanted to help us they should have given us medicine which our people would have learnt as a skill willingly apart from medicine i see nothing more regarding their help, overtime we could then decide to embrace other aspect that comes with modernization with our own modifications


Let me ask you, what is so special about modernization if as modernise as the world we are yet to tackle covid, hiv that has been brought up modernization itself?
Wetin this one dey talk? grin. Name one moment throughout history that a bigger empire or nation simply went somewhere to teach the people instead of kill, rape and colonise. It happened in Africa, Europe, Asia and Australia.

And do you know that Tuberculosis, Cholera, Typhoid, Meningitis, Yellow Fever, Measles, Smallpox and other small diseases were incurable a long time ago and always ended in death? Hell, even malaria that you clear in three days was incurable at a time. Infections could end people too. Make una dey read na.

These are the few that benefited from slave trade. Mind you! Africans sold Africans.
Do you read at all. Odutola was born in 1902, years after the end to slave trade. Odutola was a brand name in the category of Dangote during the 50s,60s and 70s. But like most Ijebu billionaires, he may likely be a member of Ogboni fraternity

The Queen had visited Nigeria sometime in 1956, signed some papers with a man named Louis Odumegwu .O, took (borrowed) a three full plane load of money belonging to a Bank called ACB, money was over 500billion pounds at that time, masterminded a war afterwards, during that war, destroyed all documents containing the deal (money borrowed) with the said man, about a year after eliminating the said man. Mr Louis was eliminated by the Queen.

Britain worked against the creation of a country as Biafra. Britain was 70% built with money and resources borrowed from the said nation (Biafra). People must understand, the Queen had committed a lot of atrocities in the past, Biafra which should be the richest in the world today, is currently being kept under the carpet. But In no time, this country would be declared, these money would be returned. These are facts you won’t see anywhere near the google or Wikipedia. The mainstream is controlled by the agendists.
So, if they tell you that the total pounds in circulation as at 60's was up to 500 billion you'd believe... Sorry for you.
